Operating Expense Breakdown

Details core costs like R&D, marketing, and admin, offering insight into how efficiently the company runs and where it’s prioritizing investment.
Expenses show a clear seasonality—Q1 jumps across depreciation, rent, merchandise costs and SG&A—reflecting grocery seasonality and timing of investments. Depreciation is drifting higher, signaling sustained capex (store remodels/tech), while merchandise costs remain the dominant, predictable swing. The recent large SG&A uptick outside the usual seasonality (late‑2025) is a potential warning: if recurring it will compress margins; if one‑time, it’s an execution or integration cost. Watch management commentary for whether SG&A pressure is structural or transitory and how capex drives ROI.
