MINNEAPOLIS–(Business Wire)–
Nash Finch Company (NASDAQ: NAFC), one of the leading food distribution
companies in the United States, today announced financial results for the twelve
weeks (second quarter) ended June 19, 2010.

Financial Results

Total Company sales for the second quarter 2010 were $1.15 billion compared to
$1.22 billion in the prior-year quarter, a decrease of 5.1%. Sales for the first
twenty-four weeks of 2010 were $2.33 billion compared to $2.36 billion in the
prior-year period, a decrease of 1.0%. Excluding the impact of the
non-comparable sales increase of $59.4 million attributable to the acquisition
of the three military distribution centers on January 31, 2009 and the sales
decrease attributable to the previously announced transition of a portion of a
food distribution customer buying group to another supplier, total Company sales
decreased by 3.8% in the second quarter and 2.8% year-to-date.

Consolidated EBITDA1 for the second quarter 2010 was $31.9 million, or 2.8% of
sales, as compared to $33.6 million, or 2.8% of sales, for the
prior-year-quarter. For the first twenty-four weeks of 2010, Consolidated EBITDA
was $60.5 million, or 2.6% of sales, compared to $62.9 million, or 2.7% of
sales, in the prior-year period. Consolidated EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial
measure that is reconciled to the most directly comparable GAAP financial
results in the attached financial statements.

Net earnings for the second quarter 2010 were $10.7 million, or $0.81 per
diluted share, as compared to net earnings of $9.5 million, or $0.72 per diluted
share, in the prior year quarter. Net earnings for the first twenty-four weeks
of 2010 were $18.7 million, or $1.40 per diluted share, as compared to net
earnings of $24.0 million, or $1.80 per diluted share, in the same prior-year
period. Net earnings for both years were impacted by several significant items
which are presented in the table below.

“Although the negative sales trend that manifested in the third quarter 2009
continued into the first half of 2010 in the food distribution and retail
industry, our results reflect several major accomplishments, which include
maintaining total Company year-over-year EBITDA as a percentage of sales,
reducing debt, investing in strategic initiatives and share repurchases, and
controlling expenses and capital expenditures,” said Alec Covington, President
and CEO of Nash Finch. “We continue to have a solid balance sheet and have
significant availability in our credit facility which provides us flexibility to
capitalize on attractive growth opportunities should they present themselves.”

The Company recently announced the closing of its Bridgeport, Michigan
distribution center, which is scheduled to be completed in the third quarter.
“The transition is proceeding smoothly and we anticipate that the full
transition will be completed by the end of the third quarter,” said Covington.

The following table identifies the significant items affecting our Consolidated
EBITDA, net earnings and diluted earnings per share for the second quarter and
year-to-date 2010 and prior year results:

Military Distribution Results

2nd Quarter % YTD %
(dollars in millions) 2010 2009 Change 2010 2009 Change
Sales $ 456.6 461.0 (1.0%) 934.6 871.3 7.3 %
Segment EBITDA1 $ 13.4 11.2 18.9% 27.0 23.2 16.4 %
Percentage of Sales 2.9% 2.4% 2.9% 2.7%

The military segment sales in the second quarter decreased 1.0% and were
reflective of weaker domestic sales, partially offset by an increase in overseas
sales. The military segment sales increased 7.3% in year-to-date 2010 reflecting
the impact of the acquisition of three military distribution centers on January
31, 2009. After adjusting for the non-comparable sales impact of these three
distribution centers of $59.4 million, military sales increased 0.5%
year-to-date.

The military segment EBITDA increased by 18.9% and 16.4% in the second quarter
and year-to-date 2010, respectively, compared to the prior year. The military
EBITDA as a percentage of sales was 2.9% in the second quarter and year-to-date
2010, respectively, as compared to 2.4% and 2.7% in the prior year.

“Our military division continues to perform despite the tough economic times,”
said Covington. “I am pleased with the significant increase in our military
division EBITDA which primarily resulted from the operating improvements
implemented across the acquired distribution centers. We are on track to open
our new Columbus, Georgia distribution center by the end of the third quarter
which will provide significant transportation savings and allow for long-term
strategic growth opportunities.”

Food Distribution & Retail Results

2nd Quarter % YTD %
(dollars in millions) 2010 2009 Change 2010 2009 Change
Sales
Food Distribution $ 574.2 619.8 (7.4 %) 1,158.0 1,221.9 (5.2 %)
Retail 123.8 135.8 (8.8 %) 241.7 263.8 (8.4 %)
Total $ 698.0 755.6 (7.6 %) 1,399.7 1,485.7 (5.8 %)

Food Distribution $ 13.7 17.0 (19.5 %) 24.9 30.2 (17.6 %)
Retail 4.9 5.4 (9.3 %) 8.6 9.5 (9.2 %)
Total $ 18.6 22.4 (17.0 %) 33.5 39.7 (15.7 %)

Food Distribution 2.4% 2.7% 2.1 % 2.5 %
Retail 4.0% 4.0% 3.6 % 3.6 %
Total 2.7% 3.0% 2.4 % 2.7 %

The combined food distribution and retail segment sales decrease in the second
quarter and year-to-date periods compared to the 2009 periods was 7.6% and 5.8%,
respectively. The decrease in sales was negatively impacted by the previously
announced transition of a portion of a customer buying group to another supplier
during the second quarter 2010. However, after adjusting to exclude this sales
impact of $16.2 million, sales declined 5.6% for the second quarter and 4.7%
year-to-date which is primarily the result of a decrease in comparable sales to
existing customers driven by deflation in certain product categories. Retail
same store sales declined 4.3% as compared to the prior year quarter and 4.0% in
the year-to-date comparison. In addition, we have closed four retail stores
since the beginning of the second quarter 2009.

The food distribution and retail segment EBITDA decreased by 17.1% and 15.7% in
the second quarter and year-to-date 2010, respectively, compared to the same
period last year. Food distribution and retail segment EBITDA as a percentage of
sales was 2.7% and 2.4% in the second quarter and year-to-date 2010,
respectively, as compared to 3.0% and 2.7% in the prior year.

Financial Target Progress

Improvements on our key financial targets have been achieved since the targets
were announced as part of the Company`s strategic plan in November 2006. In
particular, Consolidated EBITDA margin improved from 2.2% to 2.8% of sales and
the debt leverage ratio has improved from 3.11x to 2.14x from Fiscal 2006 to the
second quarter 2010. The ratio of free cash flow to net assets has increased
from 8.7% in Fiscal 2006 to 10.0% in the second quarter 2010. Finally, the
organic revenue growth metric has been negatively impacted by the current state
of the economy, but should improve when consumer confidence begins to recover.

The following table charts the Company`s progress towards its long-term
financial targets that are anticipated to be attained through successful
execution of the strategic plan.

2 Defined as cash provided from operations less capital expenditures for
property, plant & equipment during the trailing four quarters divided by the
average net assets for the current period and prior year comparable period
(total assets less current liabilities plus current portion of long-term debt
and capital leases).

Liquidity

Total debt at the end of the second quarter of 2010 was $294.1 million, a
reduction of $44.7 million as compared to $338.8 million at the end of the
second quarter of 2009. The Company continues to focus on effectively managing
its balance sheet and is currently in compliance with all of its debt covenants.
The debt leverage ratio as of the end of the second quarter 2010 was 2.14x.
Availability on the Company`s revolving credit facility at the end of the
quarter was $193.1 million.

Share Repurchase Program

As previously announced, our Board of Directors approved a share repurchase
program authorizing the Company to spend up to $25.0 million to purchase shares
of the Company`s common stock. The program took effect on November 16, 2009 and
will continue until December 31, 2010. During the second quarter 2010 we
repurchased a total of 182,802 shares for $6.5 million, at an average price per
share of $35.62. Since the program`s inception, we have repurchased a total of
472,432 shares for $16.3 million, at an average price per share of $34.57.
