Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2020 Results
Sales and other revenue was $15.8 billion during the 12 weeks ended February 27, 2021 ("fourth quarter of fiscal 2020") compared to $15.4 billion during the 13 weeks ended February 29, 2020 ("fourth quarter of fiscal 2019"). The increase in sales was primarily driven by the Company's 11.8% increase in identical sales, partially offset by the impact of the 53rd week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 and lower fuel sales. Identical sales also benefited from the Company's 282% growth in digital sales.
Gross profit margin increased to 28.9% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to 28.6% during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding fuel, gross profit margin increased 10 basis points. The increase was primarily attributable to improvements in shrink expense and continued sales leverage, partially offset by our growth in digital sales and strategic investments in price.
Selling and administrative expenses increased to 30.0% of sales during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to 26.5% of sales for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding fuel and the $607.2 million Combined Pension Plan (as defined herein) withdrawal charge, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 80 basis points lower than the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019 primarily driven by sales leverage, partially offset by incremental COVID-19 related investments to protect and safeguard customers and associates.
Interest expense was $113.1 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $140.5 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to lower average interest rates driven by our refinancing activities.
Loss on debt extinguishment was $27.6 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $45.6 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The loss on debt extinguishment during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 related to the Company's partial redemption of its 5.750% senior notes due 2025.
Other income was $107.2 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to other expense of $50.4 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in other income is primarily attributable to unrealized gains on non-operating investments and non-service cost components of net pension and post-retirement expense.
Income tax benefit of $64.1 million, representing a 30.8% effective tax rate, was the result of the loss before income taxes which was driven by the $607.2 million Combined Pension Plan withdrawal charge during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Income tax expense was $22.3 million, representing a 24.8% effective tax rate, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
Net loss was ($144.2 million) or ($0.37) per share during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to net income of $67.8 million or $0.12 per share during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Net loss during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 included the $449.4 million charge, net of tax, related to the Combined Pension Plan.
Adjusted Net Income was $347.2 million, or $0.60 per share, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $194.2 million, or $0.33 per share, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA was $916.9 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $755.6 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the Company's 11.8% increase in identical sales and related sales leverage, excluding the adjustment items, partially offset by the impact of the extra week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
Fiscal 2020 Results
Sales and other revenue was $69.7 billion during the 52 weeks ended February 27, 2021 ("fiscal 2020") compared to $62.5 billion during the 53 weeks ended February 29, 2020 ("fiscal 2019"). The increase in sales was primarily driven by the Company's 16.9% increase in identical sales, partially offset by lower fuel sales and the extra week in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019. Identical sales also benefited from the Company’s 258% growth in digital sales.
Gross profit margin increased to 29.3% in fiscal 2020 compared to 28.2% in fiscal 2019. Excluding the impact of fuel, gross profit margin increased 55 basis points.
Selling and administrative expenses increased 40 basis points to 27.0% of sales in fiscal 2020 from 26.6% in fiscal 2019. Excluding fuel and the aggregate $892.9 million Combined Pension Plan and UFCW National Fund (as defined herein) withdrawal charges, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased 155 basis points during fiscal 2020 compared to fiscal 2019.
Income tax expense was $278.5 million, representing a 24.7% effective tax rate, in fiscal 2020 compared to $132.8 million, representing a 22.2% effective tax rate, in fiscal 2019. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily driven by the increase in income before taxes relative to the amount of certain tax deductions and credits realized during the comparable fiscal year.
Net income was $850.2 million or $1.47 per share during fiscal 2020 compared to net income of $466.4 million or $0.80 per share during fiscal 2019.
Adjusted Net Income was $1,891.4 million, or $3.24 per share, during fiscal 2020 compared to $612.1 million, or $1.04 per share, during fiscal 2019.
Adjusted EBITDA was $4,524.0 million during fiscal 2020 compared to $2,834.4 million during fiscal 2019. The increase in Adjusted EBITDA primarily reflects the Company's increase in identical sales and sales leverage on gross margin and selling and administrative expenses, excluding the adjustment items, during fiscal 2020, partially offset by the impact of the extra week in fiscal 2019.
Fiscal 2020 Liquidity and Capital Allocation
Net cash provided by operating activities was $3,902.5 million during fiscal 2020 compared to $1,903.9 million during fiscal 2019. The increase in cash flow from operations compared to fiscal 2019 was primarily due to improvements in operating performance and changes in working capital.
During fiscal 2020 the Company spent $1.63 billion in capital expenditures, which included accelerated investment in digital and productivity initiatives, and the completion of 409 store remodels.
The Company continues to make progress in delevering the balance sheet, reducing its debt balance by approximately $400 million during fiscal 2020. At the end of fiscal 2020, the Company's total Net Debt Ratio was 1.5x, compared to 2.9x at the end of fiscal 2019.
During fiscal 2020, the Company repurchased an aggregate of 7.9 million shares of common stock for a total of $119.1 million pursuant to the Company's $300 million share repurchase authorization. The Company also paid a quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share on November 10, 2020 and February 10, 2021, respectively. On April 13, 2021, the Company announced the next quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share payable on May 10, 2021 to stockholders of record as of April 26, 2021.
Fiscal 2021 Outlook
The Company is providing its fiscal 2021 outlook as follows:
- Identical sales in fiscal 2021 of approximately (6%) to (7.5%), representing two-year stacked growth of 9.4% to 10.9%
- Adjusted Net Income Per Class A Common Share in the range of $1.95 per share to $2.05 per share, representing compound annual growth of 37% to 40% compared to fiscal 2019
- Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $3.5 billion to $3.6 billion, representing compound annual growth of 12% to 14% compared to fiscal 2019
- Effective tax rate to be approximately 25% excluding discrete items
- Capital expenditures in the range of $1.9 billion to $2.0 billion
The Company is unable to provide a full reconciliation of the GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures (as defined below) used in the fiscal 2021 outlook without unreasonable effort because it is not possible to predict certain of the adjustment items with a reasonable degree of certainty. This information is dependent upon future events and may be outside of the Company's control and could have a significant impact on its GAAP financial results for fiscal 2021.

Forward-Looking Statements, Non-GAAP Measures and Identical Sales
This earnings report may include forward-looking statements within the meaning of the federal securities laws. Forward-looking statements contain information about future operating or financial performance. Forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current expectations and assumptions about market conditions and our future operating performance which the Company believes to be reasonable at this time. The Company's results may vary significantly from quarter to quarter, and these expectations and assumptions involve risks and uncertainties, including changes in macroeconomic conditions and the Company's industry, failure to achieve anticipated synergies and cost-savings, increased rates of food price inflation or deflation and other factors, that could cause actual results or events to be materially different from those anticipated. These risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements include those related to the COVID-19 pandemic, about which there are still many unknowns, including the duration of the pandemic and the extent of its impact. The Company undertakes no obligation to update or revise any such statements as a result of new information, future events or otherwise.
EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Class A Common Share and Net Debt Ratio (collectively, the "Non-GAAP Measures") are performance measures that provide supplemental information the Company believes is useful to analysts and investors to evaluate its ongoing results of operations, when considered alongside other GAAP measures such as net income, operating income, gross profit, and net income per Class A common share. These Non-GAAP Measures exclude the financial impact of items management does not consider in assessing the Company's ongoing operating performance, and thereby facilitate review of its operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Other companies may have different capital structures or different lease terms, and comparability to the Company's results of operations may be impacted by the effects of acquisition accounting on its depreciation and amortization. As a result of the effects of these factors and factors specific to other companies, the Company believes EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted Net Income Per Class A Common Share and Net Debt Ratio provide helpful information to analysts and investors to facilitate a comparison of its operating performance to that of other companies. The Company also uses Adjusted EBITDA, as further adjusted for additional items defined in its debt instruments, for board of director and bank compliance reporting. The Company's presentation of Non-GAAP Measures should not be construed as an implication that its future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items.
As used in this earnings release, the term "identical sales" includes stores operating during the same period in both the current fiscal year and the prior fiscal year, comparing sales on a daily basis. Direct to consumer internet sales are included in identical sales, and fuel sales are excluded from identical sales.
