In our opinion, the consolidated financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects,
the financial position of SUPERVALU INC. and subsidiaries as of February 28, 2009 and February 23, 2008,
and the results of their operations and their cash flows for each of the fiscal years in the three-year period
ended February 28, 2009, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinion,
the related 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. Also in
our opinion, SUPERVALU INC. maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial
reporting as of February 28, 2009, based on criteria established in Internal Control—Integrated Framework
issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.
As discussed in Note 1 to the consolidated financial statements, SUPERVALU INC. and subsidiaries adopted
the measurement provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 158 “Employers’ Accounting
for Defined Benefit Pension and Other Postretirement Plans” as of February 25, 2007.
