SpartanNash Posts 46% Profit Drop in Q2

SpartanNash (NASDAQ:SPTN), a major grocery wholesaler and retailer, released its second quarter results for fiscal 2025 on August 14, 2025. The big story from the release was stronger-than-expected adjusted profitability—a non-GAAP earnings per share of $0.54 beat analyst estimates of $0.50. However, revenue (GAAP) missed expectations, coming in at $2.27 billion (GAAP) versus the $2.28 billion consensus, with growth sourced mainly from recently acquired stores since organic sales volumes declined. Net earnings (GAAP) dropped sharply year over year to $6.2 million, reflecting the increased cost of acquisition integration and other one-off expenses. With the pending acquisition by C&S Wholesale Grocers on the horizon, the company withdrew any forward financial guidance, signaling a shift in its communication for the remainder of the year. Overall, the quarter reflected operational improvement in margins, but ongoing pressures in sales volumes, especially in core Wholesale, remained a concern.
