Safeway's second-quarter profit rises
NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Safeway Inc. said Thursday that its second-quarter net income rose to $234.3 million, or 53 cents a share, from $218.2 million, or 49 cents a share, in the year-earlier period. The Pleasanton, Calif., food and drug retailer said revenue rose 3% to $10.1 billion from $9.82 billion, due in part to higher fuel sales. Analysts polled by FactSet Research, on average, had projected earnings of 52 cents a share. Safeway's quarterly same-store sales rose 1.0% and identical-store sales, or sales excluding remodeled and relocated stores, rose 0.9%. Excluding fuel sales, same-store sales fell 0.2%, and identical-store sales fell 0.3%. Safeway backed its 2008 earnings projection of $2.25 to $2.35 a share, but cut its guidance for identical-store sales growth, excluding fuel, to a range of 1.0% to 2.0% from a range of 2.0% to 2.3%.
