Rite Aid Corporation Research Reports
On September 18, 2014, Rite Aid Corporation (Rite Aid) announced its Q2 FY 2015 financial results (period ended August 30, 2014). Revenues during the quarter rose 3.9% YoY to $6.5 billion, primarily as a result of an increase in pharmacy same store sales. Net income for Q2 FY 2015 came in at $127.8 million or $0.13 per diluted share, compared to Q2 FY 2014 net income of $32.8 million or $0.03 per diluted share. Rite Aid attributed the increase in net income to increase in adjusted EBITDA, a lower LIFO charge due to pharmacy inventory reductions and a $62.2 million loss on debt retirement in the prior year, partially offset by higher income tax expense. Shares of Rite Aid, however, fell 18.52% on the day of the announcement as the Company lowered its FY 2015 guidance. Rite Aid now expects adjusted EBITDA in the range of $1.200 billion and $1.275 billion, and net income in the range of $223.0 million and $333.0 million.
