"We had a strong start to the year as we continued to execute our strategy," said Vivek Sankaran, President & CEO. "Our performance is clear evidence of the structural enhancements we have made to our business, as well as our ability to retain market share gains compared to pre-pandemic levels. We are closer to our customers than ever before, and are well positioned for continued success as we execute on our strategic priorities, leveraging our strengths in fresh, Own Brands and our accelerating digital transformation."
First Quarter of Fiscal 2021 Results Compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2020
Sales and other revenue was $21.3 billion during the 16 weeks ended June 19, 2021 ("first quarter of fiscal 2021") compared to $22.8 billion during the 16 weeks ended June 20, 2020 ("first quarter of fiscal 2020"). The decline was primarily driven by the Company's 10.0% decrease in identical sales, as we cycled periods of significantly elevated demand at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in the first quarter of fiscal 2020, partially offset by higher fuel sales.
Gross profit margin decreased to 29.1% during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 29.8% during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Excluding the impact of fuel, gross profit margin increased 10 basis points primarily benefiting from improved pharmacy margins related to administering COVID-19 vaccines, productivity initiatives related to optimization of promotions and growth in Own Brands penetration, partially offset by the sales deleverage.
Selling and administrative expenses were 25.9% of sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 25.4% of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2020. Excluding the impact of fuel, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased 115 basis points. The increase in selling and administrative expenses was primarily attributable to the sales deleverage, partially offset by benefits related to the execution of our productivity initiatives and lower COVID-19 related costs.
Interest expense was $153.3 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $180.6 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in interest expense was primarily attributable to lower average interest rates and lower average borrowings as a result of the continued deleveraging of the balance sheet.
Other income, net was $43.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to other expense, net of $3.1 million during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in other income, net was primarily attributable to realized gains on non-operating investments and non-service cost components of net pension and post-retirement expense, partially offset by unrealized losses on non-operating investments.
Income tax expense was $132.5 million, representing a 23.0% effective tax rate, during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $201.9 million, representing a 25.6% effective tax rate, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in the effective income tax rate was primarily driven by the recognition of certain discrete state income tax benefits in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
Net income was $444.8 million, or $0.78 per Class A common share, during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $586.2 million, or $1.00 per Class A common share, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
Adjusted net income was $517.5 million, or $0.89 per Class A common share, during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $801.2 million, or $1.35 per Class A common share, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020.
Adjusted EBITDA was $1,308.1 million, or 6.2% of sales, during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $1,691.0 million, or 7.4% of sales, during the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The decrease in Adjusted EBITDA was primarily attributable to the Company's 10.0% decrease in identical sales and the sales deleverage.
Supplemental Two-Year Results - First Quarter of Fiscal 2021 Compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2019
The following table provides a comparison of the first quarter of fiscal 2021 to the 16 weeks ended June 15, 2019 ("first quarter of fiscal 2019") for certain financial measures, including a compounded annual growth rate ("CAGR"), to demonstrate the two-year growth in the Company's business. The Company believes these supplemental comparisons provide meaningful and useful information to investors about the trends in its business relative to pre-COVID-19 pandemic periods.

Sales and other revenue was $21.3 billion during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $18.7 billion during the first quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in sales compared to the first quarter of 2019 was primarily due to the 16.5% increase in two-year stacked identical sales. Identical sales were driven in part by the 276% two-year stacked increase in digital sales.
Gross profit margin was 29.1% during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 28.0% during the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding the impact of fuel, gross profit margin increased by approximately 90 basis points compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2019, primarily driven by improvements in shrink expense, productivity initiatives, sales leverage and improved pharmacy margins related to administering COVID-19 vaccines, partially offset by growth in digital sales and incremental COVID-19 expenses.
Selling and administrative expenses were 25.9% of sales during the first quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to 26.4% of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2019. Excluding the impact of fuel, selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales decreased 75 basis points primarily due to sales leverage and the execution of productivity initiatives, partially offset by incremental COVID-19 expenses.
Capital Allocation
The Company's capital allocation strategy is balanced, prioritizing capital investment to drive future growth, continued deleveraging of the balance sheet, and the return of capital to stockholders via quarterly dividends and opportunistic share repurchases, all anchored on strong and consistent free cash flow.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company spent $513.4 million in capital expenditures, which included investments in digital and technology, the opening of five new stores and the completion of 33 store remodels. During the first quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company also paid its quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share of Class A common stock on May 10, 2021 to stockholders of record as of April 26, 2021 and, on July 13, 2021, announced the next quarterly dividend of $0.10 per share of Class A common stock payable on August 10, 2021 to stockholders of record as of July 26, 2021.
Fiscal 2021 Outlook
The Company is providing an updated fiscal 2021 outlook and now expects:
- Identical sales in fiscal 2021 in the range of (5%) to (6%) (previously approximately (6%) to (7.5%)), representing two-year stacked growth of 10.9% to 11.9% (previously 9.4% to 10.9%)
- Adjusted net income per Class A common share in the range of $2.20 to $2.30 per share (previously $1.95 to $2.05 per share)
- Adjusted EBITDA in the range of $3.7 billion to $3.8 billion (previously $3.5 billion to $3.6 billion)
- Effective tax rate to be approximately 25% excluding discrete items (unchanged)
- Capital expenditures in the range of $1.9 billion to $2.0 billion (unchanged)
The Company is unable to provide a full reconciliation of the GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures (as defined below) used in the updated 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.
Conference Call
The Company will hold a conference call today at 8:30 a.m. Eastern Time, which will be hosted by Vivek Sankaran, President & CEO, and Bob Dimond, CFO. The call will be webcast and can be accessed at https://investor.albertsonscompanies.com/Event-Calendar. A replay of the webcast will be available for at least two weeks following the completion of the call.

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. These risks and uncertainties, as well as other risks and uncertainties, are more fully discussed in Albertsons’ periodic reports filed with the SEC, including reports on Forms 10-K and 10-Q. 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 and Adjusted net income per Class A common share (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 provide useful measures of its operating performance on a period-to-period basis. Other companies may have different definitions of Non-GAAP Measures and provide for different adjustments, and comparability to the Company's results of operations may be impacted by such differences. The Company also uses Adjusted EBITDA and Net Debt Ratio 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 digital sales are included in identical sales, and fuel sales are excluded from identical sales.
