(a) Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures. We carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of the Evaluation Date, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

(b) Changes in internal controls. On October 22, 2018, we completed the acquisition of Supervalu. We have extended our Section 404 compliance program under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and the applicable rules and regulations under such Act to include Supervalu. We will report on its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting for the combined operations as of August 1, 2020. We are currently in process of integrating Supervalu’s internal controls over financial reporting. In the first quarter of fiscal 2020, we adopted ASU 2016-02, Leases, and updated our accounting policies and implemented new internal controls in conjunction with the new lease standard. Except for the ongoing integration of Supervalu and the new lease standard adoption, there has been no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the third quarter of fiscal 2020 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
