Executive Summary

The Kroger Co reported QQ2 2025 revenue of $33.94 billion, with operating income of $0.863 billion and net income of $0.609 billion, translating to an EPS of $0.91. Year-over-year (YoY) net income rose 30.7% while quarter-over-quarter (QoQ) net income declined 29.7%. The reported operating margin stood at 2.54% and the net margin at 1.79%, signaling a modest profitability profile amid ongoing cost and mix dynamics. A notable data point in the dataset is an anomalously high gross margin figure, with gross profit of $33.738 billion on $33.94 billion of revenue implying a gross margin near 99.4%. That level is inconsistent with a typical grocery retailer and appears to be a data integrity issue in the provided inputs; assume reported gross margin should reflect a mid-20s percentage in a normal set of results. The quarter also showed a substantial QoQ swing in gross profit and operating leverage that warrants close scrutiny of cost of goods sold, input costs, and store-level productivity.
