Cautionary Statement Regarding Forward Looking Statements Statements in this presentation that are not historical, are forward - looking statements made pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 . Such statements include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the Company’s ability to generate positive free cash flow in fiscal 2021 ; the impact of the recent global coronavirus ( COVID - 19 ) pandemic on the Company’s business ; the Company’s plan to hire additional associates ; and any assumptions underlying any of the foregoing . Words such as “anticipate,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “intend,” “may,” “plan,” “predict,” “project,” “should,” and “will” and variations of such words and similar expressions are intended to identify such forward - looking statements . These forward - looking statements are not guarantees of future performance and involve risks, assumptions and uncertainties, including, but not limited to : the impact of COVID - 19 on the Company’s workforce, operations, stores, expenses and supply chain, and the operations of the Company’s customers, suppliers and business partners ; the Company’s ability to successfully implement its new business strategy (including any delays and adjustments as a result of COVID - 19 ) and improve the operating performance of its stores ; the Company’s ability to complete the exchange offer ; the Company’s high level of indebtedness and its ability to satisfy its obligations and the other covenants contained in the Company’s debt agreements ; general competitive, economic, industry, market, political (including healthcare reform), and regulatory conditions, as well as factors specific to the markets in which the Company operates ; the impact of private and public third - party payers continued reduction in prescription drug reimbursements and efforts to encourage mail order ; the Company’s ability to manage expenses and its investments in working capital ; the Company’s ability to achieve the benefits of the Company’s efforts to reduce the costs of its generic and other drugs ; outcomes of legal and regulatory matters ; the Company’s ability to partner and have relationships with health plans and health systems ; and the continued integration of the Company’s new senior management team and its ability to realize the benefits from its organizational restructuring .

To the extent that COVID - 19 adversely affects the Company’s business and financial results, it may also have the effect of heightening many of such risk factors . Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those indicated or anticipated by such forward - looking statements . Accordingly, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on these forward - looking statements, which speak only as of the date they are made . The degree to which COVID - 19 may affect the Company’s results and operations will depend on future developments, which are highly uncertain, including, but not limited to, the duration and spread of the outbreak, its severity, the actions to contain the virus or treat its impact (including travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter - in - place orders and shutdowns), and how quickly and to what extent normal economic and operating conditions can resume . As a result, the impact on the Company’s financial and operating results cannot be reasonably estimated with specificity at this time, but the impact could be material . the Company expressly disclaims any current intention to update publicly any forward - looking statement after the distribution of this release, whether as a result of new information, future events, changes in assumptions or otherwise . Safe Harbor Statement 2

 

The following presentation includes the non - GAAP financial measures, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss), Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share, Adjusted EBITDA Gross Profit and Adjusted EBITDA SG&A . Rite Aid defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) excluding the impact of income taxes, interest expense, depreciation and amortization, LIFO adjustments, charges or credits for facility closing and impairment, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, inventory write - downs related to store closings, gains or losses on debt retirements, the WBA merger termination fee, and other items (including stock - based compensation expense, merger and acquisition - related costs, a non - recurring litigation settlement, severance, restructuring - related costs and costs related to facility closures and gain or loss on sale of assets) . The current calculation of Adjusted EBITDA reflects a modification made in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to eliminate the add back of revenue deferrals related to our customer loyalty program and to present amounts previously included within other as separate reconciling items . The presentation includes a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure . Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share exclude amortization expense, merger and acquisition - related costs, a non - recurring litigation settlement, gains or losses on debt retirements, LIFO adjustments, goodwill and intangible asset impairment charges, restructuring - related costs and the WBA merger termination fee . The current calculations of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share reflect a modification made in the second quarter of fiscal 2019 to add back all amortization expenses rather than the amortization of EnvisionRx/Elixir intangible assets only . Additionally, the add back of LIFO (credit) charge when calculating Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income (Loss) and Adjusted Net Income (Loss) per Diluted Share removes the entire impact of LIFO (credits) charges, and effectively reflects Rite Aid’s results as if the company was on a FIFO inventory basis . The presentation includes a reconciliation of Adjusted Net Income (Loss) to net income (loss), which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure . Adjusted EBITDA Gross Profit includes LIFO adjustments, depreciation and amortization (COGS portion only) and other items . The presentation includes a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA Gross Profit to Revenue, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure . Adjusted EBITDA SG&A excludes depreciation and amortization (SG&A portion only), stock - based compensation expense, merger and acquisition - related costs, litigation settlement and other items . The presentation includes a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA SG&A to Revenue, which is the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure . Non - GAAP Financial Measures 3

• Retail pharmacy segment revenue was $ 258 million higher than last year’s first quarter, driven by an increase in same store sales . Same store sales increased 6 . 6 % with front end same store sales up 16 . 0 % , after excluding cigarette and tobacco sales, driven by strong results in core categories such as cleaning supplies and disinfectants resulting from the COVID - 19 pandemic . Pharmacy same store sales increased by 2 . 2 % , with same store prescription count up 0 . 4 % , on a 30 - day adjusted basis . Same store prescription count was positively impacted by growing maintenance prescriptions through medication adherence and personalized interventions, partially offset by a decline in acute prescriptions of 14 . 8 % resulting from the postponement of outpatient medical visits and elective surgical procedures . • Adjusted EBITDA Gross Profit was favorable to last year’s first quarter by $ 58 . 2 million and 28 bps worse than prior year as a percent of revenues . The increase in adjusted EBITDA gross profit was driven by improvements in our front end same store sales . The 28 bps decline in Adjusted EBITDA Gross Profit as a percentage of revenues is due primarily to higher markdowns related to increased sales volume to our wellness+ members and higher discounts on front end merchandise for our associates to show our appreciation during the COVID - 19 pandemic . • Adjusted EBITDA SG&A was $ 79 . 1 million worse than the prior year . Adjusted EBITDA SG&A was negatively impacted by the incurrence of COVID - 19 related expenses, including our Hero Pay and Hero Bonus programs, store cleaning and sanitation and related measures to keep our associates and customers safe, and the reduction of WBA TSA fees .
