Management Commentary
Susan Morris, Chief Executive Officer
“Although our second quarter performance was in-line with the expectations in our revised outlook, our results do not reflect the potential of the Company,”
Susan Morris, Chief Executive Officer
“We are launching a comprehensive business review to speed up improvements in Albertsons' performance and tackle even harder a cost structure we can no longer afford. Our work will find opportunities to simplify the organization, improve decision-making, reinvest savings in customer value, and boost long-term shareholder returns.”
