INDEPENDENT AUDITORS’ REPORT
The Board of Directors and Stockholders
SUPERVALU INC:
Under date of April 9, 2003, we reported on the consolidated balance sheets of SUPERVALU INC. and
subsidiaries as of February 22, 2003 and February 23, 2002, and the related consolidated statements of earnings,
stockholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period ended February 22, 2003,
which are included in the annual report on Form 10-K for the 2003 fiscal year. In connection with our audits of
the aforementioned consolidated financial statements, we also audited the related consolidated financial
statement schedule as listed in the accompanying index. This financial statement schedule is the responsibility of
the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on this financial statement schedule
based on our audits.
In our opinion, such financial statement schedule, when considered in relation to the basic consolidated
financial statements taken as a whole, presents fairly, in all material respects, the information set forth therein.
