Analysis of the Draft Complaint and Proposed Consent Order To Aid
Public Comment
I. Introduction
The Federal Trade Commission (``Commission'') has accepted for
public comment from Albertson's, Inc. (``Albertson's'') and American
Stores Company (``American Stores'') (collectively ``the Proposed
Respondents'') an Agreement Containing Consent Order (``the proposed
consent order''). The Proposed Respondents have also reviewed a draft
complaint that the Commission contemplates issuing. The proposed
consent order is designed to remedy likely anticompetitive effects
arising from Albertson's proposed stock-for-stock acquisition of all of
the outstanding securities of American Stores.
II. Description of the Parties and the Proposed Acquisition
Albertson's, a Delaware corporation headquartered in Boise, Idaho,
operates approximately 994 supermarkets in 25 Western, Midwestern, and
Southern states. Albertson's supermarkets operate primarily under the
``Albertson's,'' ``Max Grocery Warehouse,'' ``Seessel's'' and
``Smitty's'' trade names. Albertson's competes with American Stores in
California, Nevada and New Mexico. Albertson's operates 177
supermarkets in California, 31 supermarkets in Nevada, and 19
supermarkets in New Mexico. Albertson's total sales for the fiscal year
that ended on January 28, 1999, were approximately $16.0 billion.
Albertson's is the fourth largest supermarket chain in the United
States, based on total sales. After the merger with American Stores,
Albertson's will become the second largest supermarket chain in the
United States.
American Stores, a Delaware corporation headquartered in Salt Lake
City, Utah, operates approximately 802 supermarkets and 773 stand-alone
pharmacies in 31 states. American Stores operates supermarkets,
including combination supermarket and pharmacies, in 12 Western,
Midwestern and Eastern states under the ``Lucky.'' ``Lucky Sav-On,''
``SuperSaver,'' ``Acme Markets,'' and ``Jewel Food Stores'' trade
names. American Stores operates approximately 411 supermarkets in
California, 25 supermarkets in Nevada, and 11 supermarkets in New
Mexico. These American Stores supermarkets are all in the company's
Lucky Division and operate under the ``Lucky,'' ``SuperSaver'' and
``Lucky Sav-On'' trade names. American Stores' total sales for the
fiscal year that ended on January 30, 1999, were $19.9 billion. Based
on total sales, American Stores is the second largest supermarket chain
in the United States.
On August 2, 1999, Albertson's, Abacus Holdings, Inc. (``Abacus''),
a wholly owned subsidiary of Albertson's, and American Stores entered
into an Agreement and Plan of Merger pursuant to which Abacus will
acquire all of the outstanding securities of American Stores. Under the
merger agreement, Abacus will convert the American Stores stock into
Albertson's stock based on a 0.63 exchange rate. As a result, 100
shares of American Stores stock will be converted to 63 shares of
Albertson's stock. The transaction, at the time it was negotiated, had
a total value of approximately $11.7 billion, including an equity value
of $8.3 billion and debt of $3.4 billion. Today, the acquisition is
valued at approximately $13 billion.
III. The Draft Complaint
The draft complaint alleges that the relevant line of commerce
(i.e., the product market) is the retail sale of food and grocery items
in supermarkets.
[[Page 35161]]
Supermarkets provide a distinct set of products and services for
consumers who desire to one-stop shop for food and grocery products.
Supermarkets carry a full line and wide selection of both food and
nonfood products (typically more than 10,000 different stock-keeping
units (``SKUs'')), as well as a deep inventory of those SKUs in a
variety of brand names and sizes. In order to accommodate the large
number of food and nonfood products necessary for one-stop shopping,
supermarkets are large stores that typically have at least 10,000
square feet of selling space. Supermarkets in California, Nevada and
New Mexico tend to have at least 20,000 square feet and carry at least
20,000 SKUs.
Supermarkets compete primarily with other supermarkets that provide
one-stop shopping for food and grocery products. Supermarkets base
their food and grocery prices on the prices primarily of food and
grocery products sold at nearby supermarkets. Supermarkets do not
regularly price-check food and grocery products sold at other types of
stores such as club stores or limited assortment stores, and do not
significantly change their food and grocery prices in response to
prices at other types of stores. Most consumers shopping for food and
grocery products at supermarkets are not likely to shop elsewhere in
response to a small price increase by supermarkets.
Retail stores other than supermarkets that sell food and grocery
products, such as neighborhood ``mom & pop'' grocery stores, limited
assortment stores, convenience stores, specialty food stores (e.g.,
seafood markets, bakeries, etc.), club stores military commissaries,
and mass merchants, do not effectively constrain most prices at
supermarkets. These other stores operate significantly different retail
formats and sell far more limited assortments of items. None of these
stores offers a supermarket's distinct set of products and services
that enable consumers to one-stop shop for food and grocery products.
The draft complaint alleges that the relevant sections of the
country (i.e., the geographic markets) in which to analyze the
acquisition are the areas in an near the following cities and towns:
(a) Antioch/Pittsburg, California; (b) Apple Valley/Hesperia/
Victorville, California; (c) Atascadero, California; (d) Auburn,
California; (e) Greater Bakersfield, California, (f) Claremont/Pomona/
Rancho Cucamonga, California; (g) Danville/San Ramon/Dublin/Pleasanton,
California; (h) Davis, California; (i) Encinitas, California; (j)
Escondido, California; (k) Fallsbrook, California; (1) Grass Valley,
California; (m) Grover City/Arroyo Grande, California; (n) Jackson,
California; (o) La Mesa/El Cajon, California; (p) Laguna Beach,
California; (q) Lancaster/Palmdale, California; (r) Livermore,
California; (s) Lompoc, California; (t) Monterey/Seaside/Del Rey Oaks/
Pacific Grove, California; (u) Moorpark, California; (v) Morro Bay/Los
Osos, California; (w) Murrieta/Temecula, California; (x) Napa,
California; (y) Northern Covina, California, an area that includes
Azusa, Baldwin Park, Charter Oak, Citrus, Covina, Glendora, La Puenta,
Valinda, Vincent, West Covina, and West Puente; (z) Oceanside/Vista/
Carlsbad, California; (aa) Oxnard, California; (bb) Palm Springs/Indio,
California; (cc) Paso Robles, California; (dd) Petaluma, California;
(ee) Poway/North San Diego, California; (ff) Ramona, California; (gg)
Redlands, California; (hh) Rialto/Fontana, California; (ii) Riverside/
Corona, California; (jj) Greater Sacramento, California, and narrower
markets contained therein; (kk) Salinas, California; (ll) San Luis
Obispo, California; (mm) Santa Barbara/Goleta, California; (nn) Santa
Clarita, California; (oo) Santa Cruz/Capitola, California; (pp) Santa
Maria/Orcutt, California; (qq) SantaRosa, California; (rr) Simi Valley,
California; (ss) Sonoma/Hot Springs, California; (tt) South Los Angeles
County/North Orange County, California; and narrower markets contained
therein;\1\ (uu) South Orange County, California, and narrower markets
contained therein; (vv) Southern Covina California, an area that
includes the communities of Diamond Bar, Hacienta Heights, South San
Jose Hills, and Walnut; (ww) Thousand Oaks/Newbury Park/Casa Conejo,
California; (xx) Torrance, California; (yy) Vacaville, California; (zz)
Watsonville/Freedom, California; (aaa) Eastern Albuquerque, New Mexico;
(bbb) Las Cruces, New Mexico; (ccc) Roio Rancho/Northwest Albuquerque,
New Mexico; (ddd) Santa Fe, New Mexico; and (eee) Greater Las Vegas/
Henderson, Nevada, and narrower markets contained therein.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\1\ The draft complaint defines ``South Los Angeles County/North
Orange County'' as an area bordered on the north by the Santa Monica
and San Joes Hills/Puente Hills/Chino Hills, on the west by
Interstate 710 and the Pacific Ocean, on the east by the Santa Ana
Mountains, and on the south by the Laguna Hills and El Toro Marine
Corps Air Base.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Albertson's and American Stores are actual and direct competitors
in all the above listed markets other than Antioch/Pittsburg,
Atascadero, Fallbrook, Morro Bay/Los Osos, and Santa Maria/Orcutt.
Albertson's is an actual potential competitor against American Stores
in and near Antioch/Pittsburg, Atascadero, Fallbrook, and Santa Maria/
Orcutt, California. American Stores is an actual potential competitor
against Albertson's in Morro Bay/Los Osos, California. But for the
acquisition, Albertson's and American Stores would have become direct
competitors in and near Antioch/Pittsburg, Atascadero, Fallbrook, Morro
Bay/Los Osos, and Santa Maria/Orcutt, California. The acquisition will
eliminate that competition.
The draft complaint alleges that the post-merger markets would all
be highly concentrated, whether measured by the Herfindahl-Hirschman
Index (commonly referred to as ``HHI'') or by four-firm concentration
ratios.\2\ The acquisition would substantially increase concentration
in each market. The post-acquisition HHIs in the geographic markets
would range from 2,000 to 8,090. Concentration levels in the geographic
markets alleged in the draft complaint would not materially different
even if club stores and limited assortment stores were included in
product market.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\2\ The HHI is a measurement of market concentration calculated
by summing the squares of the individual market shares of all the
participants.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The draft complaint further alleges that entry is difficult and
would not be timely, likely, or sufficient to prevent anticompetitive
effects in the relevant geographic markets.
The draft complaint also alleges that Albertson's proposed
acquisitions of all of the outstanding securities of American Stores,
if consummated, may substantially lessen competition in the relevant
markets in violations of Section 7 of the Clayton Act, as amended, 15
U.S.C. 18, and Section 5 of the Federal Trade Commission Act, as
amended, 15 U.S.C. 45, by eliminating direct competition between
supermarkets owned or controlled by Alberton's and supermarkets owned
or controlled by American Stores; by eliminating actual potential
competition between supermarkets owned or controlled by Alberton's and
supermarkets owned or controlled by American Stores; by increasing the
likelihood that Albertons's will unilaterally exercise power; and by
increasing the likelihood of, or facilitating, collusion or coordinated
interaction among the remaining supermarket firms. Each of these
effects increases the likelihood that the prices of food, groceries or
services will increase, and the quality and selection of food,
groceries or services will decrease, in the geographic
[[Page 35162]]
markets alleged in the proposed complaint.
IV. Terms of the Agreement Containing Consent Order (``the Proposed
Consent Order'')
The proposed consent order will remedy the Commission's competitive
concerns about the proposed acquisition. Under the terms of the
proposed consent order, Alberton's and American Stores must divest 144
identified supermarkets and five identified supermarket sites in the
relevant markets to five different upfront buyers. The supermarkets and
sites that the Proposed Respondents must divest consist of 104
Alberton's supermarkets and three Albertson's sites, and 40 American
Stores supermarkets and two American Stores sites. The 104 Alberton's
supermarkets consist of 96 stores that operate under the ``Alberton's
trade name and eight stores that operate under the ``Max Grocery
Warehouse'' trade name. The 40 American Stores supermarkets consist of
36 stores that operate under the ``Lucky'' trade name, three stores
that operate under the ``SuperSaver'' trade name, and one store that
operates under the ``Lucky Sav-On'' trade name.
In 37 of the 57 geographic markets, the Proposed Respondents will
divest either all of the Alberton's supermarkets or all of the American
Stores supermarkets to buyers who do not currently operate supermarkets
in these markets. In the remaining markets, the Proposed Respondent
will divest some combination of Alberton's and American Stores
supermarkets or sites or both. Divesting all of one party's assets
within a particularly market achieves several important competitive
goals that the proposed consent order is designed to achieve. It
ensures that the merger will not result in any increase in
concentration in that market. The divestiture will result in the same
number of players in the market holding the same relative shares of the
market as existed before the merger.
However, the Commission is willing to evaluate and, under certain
conditions, accept other divestiture packages if and when the parties
can satisfy the Commission that the divestiture will eliminate the
anticompetitive effects of concern. In order to do so, the Commission
will analyze the financial and competitive condition of the proposed
divestiture assets and that of the stores the Proposed Respondents
intend to retain. In this instance, the Commission has declined to
accept divestiture of supermarkets that are not profitable or are
declining in sales or profitability, and has acquired that ``mix-and-
match'' divestitures consist solely of competitively viable stores.
In 13 of the markets in which the Proposed Respondents are not
divesting either all of the Albertson's or all of the American Stores
supermarkets to buyers who do not currently operate supermarkets in
these markets, there will be no significant increase in concentration.
In the remaining seven markets, although there is nominally an increase
in concentration from the combined effect of the merger and
divestiture, the proposed increase in concentration is significant in
only one market (Bakersfield). In markets where the Proposed
Respondents are not divesting either all of the Albertson's or all of
the American Stores supermarkets, the proposed divestiture assets
consist of more profitable stores, rather than a divestiture of sales
volume from unprofitable stores.
The Commission's goal in evaluating possible purchasers of divested
assets is to maintain the competitive environment that existed prior to
the acquisition. When divestiture is an appropriate remedy for a
supermarket merger, the Commission requires the merging parties to find
a buyer for the divested stores. A proposed buyer must not itself
present competitive problems. For example, the Commission is less
likely to approve a buyer that already has a large retail presence in
the relevant geographic area than a buyer without such a presence. The
Commission is preliminarily satisfied that the purchasers presented by
the parties are well qualified to run the divested stores and that
divestiture to these purchases poses no separate competitive issues.
Public comments may address the suitability of the designated acquirers
to acquire the supermarkets at issue.
The five upfront buyers and the number of stores each is acquiring
are as follows: 31 stores to Certified Grocers of California; 27 stores
and one land site to Raley's; 40 stores and two land sites to Ralphs (a
Kroger/Fred Meyer subsidiary); 43 stores and one land site to Stater
Bros.; and three stores and one land site to Vons (a Safeway
subsidiary). A list of the specific supermarkets that Albertson's and
American Stores must divest to each of the upfront buyers is attached
at the end of this Analysis to Aid Public Comment. The proposed consent
order also requires Certified Grocers, which is acquiring 31 stores, to
divest at least 20 of the stores within 90 days from the time the order
becomes final. Certified Grocers is a food wholesaler that does not
operate many corporate-owned stores. Certified Grocers must seek prior
approval from the Commission to divest, within three years of the final
order, any supermarkets to any firms not preapproved in the proposed
consent order to acquire specific stores. Certified Grocers is made a
party to the proposed consent order for relief purposes and is subject
to civil penalties if it does not meet its obligations under the order.
The preapproved independent buyers that Certified Grocers plans to
sell identified supermarkets to include the following: A.J. Markets,
Inc. (d/b/a Amar Ranch); Arden Group (d/b/a Gelsons and Mayfair);
Berberian Enterprises (d/b/a Jons Market); Bianchini's Apple Market (d/
b/a Apple Market); Ceiland Coast, Inc.; Colonial Shopping Center, a
general partnership (d/b/a Young's Market); El Tigre Inc.
(d/b/a El Tigre Market); Goodwin & Sons, Inc. (d/b/a Village Market);
Hope Mart, Inc. (d/b/a Best Value Grocery Warehouse); K.V. Mart Co. (d/
b/a Top Valu and Valu Plus Food Warehouse); Rodd Mart, Inc. (d/b/a
Payless Foods); Stump's Apple Markets (d/b/a Apple Market); UKA's Big
Saver Food, Inc.
(d/b/a Big Saver Foods); Vallarta Foods Enterprises, Inc. (d/b/a
Vallarta Super Markets); and Ronald Ziff. The supermarkets that
Certified Grocers plans to sell to each preapproved buyer are
identified by location in the proposed consent order.
The proposed consent order requires that the divestitures must
occur no later than the earlier of (1) 30 to 120 days from when the
Commission accepts the agreement for public comment, depending on the
business plans of the specific upfront buyer, or (2) four months after
the Commission accepts the agreement for public comment.\3\ The amount
of time required for the divestitures varies with each of the acquirers
based on the acquirer's need to convert large numbers of new stores
into its operations. The proposed consent order also requires
Albertson's to include rescission provisions in its upfront buyer
agreements that allow it to rescind the transaction(s) if the
Commission, after the comment period, decides to reject any of the
upfront buyers. If, at the time the Commission decides to make the
proposed consent order final, the Commission notifies Albertson's that
any of the upfront buyers to which Albertson's has divested a
supermarket or site is not an acceptable acquirer, or that any upfront
buyer agreement is not an acceptable
[[Page 35163]]
manner of divestiture, then Albertson's must immediately rescind the
transaction in question and divest those assets within three months
after the proposed consent order becomes final. At that time,
Albertson's must divest those assets only to an acquirer that receives
the prior approval of the Commission and only in a manner that receives
the prior approval of the Commission. In the event that any Commission-
approved buyer is unable to take or keep possession of any of the
supermarkets identified for divestiture, a trustee that the Commission
may appoint has the power to divest any additional ancillary assets and
effect such arrangements as are necessary to satisfy the requirements
of the proposed consent order.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
\3\ Acceptance of the proposed consent order for public comment
terminates the Hart-Scott-Rodino waiting period and enables
Albertson's to immediately acquire the American Stores stock.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
The proposed consent order specifically requires the Proposed
Respondents to: (1) Maintain the viability, competitiveness and
marketability of the assets to be divested; (2) not cause the wasting
or deterioration of the assets to be divested; (3) not sell, transfer,
encumber, or otherwise impair their marketability or viability; (4)
maintain the supermarkets consistent with past practices; (5) use best
efforts to preserve existing relationships with suppliers, customers
and employees; and (6) keep the supermarkets open for business and
maintain the inventory of products in each store consistent with past
practice. The proposed consent order also contains more specific
details relating to maintaining store operations.
The proposed consent order also enables the Commission to appoint
an interim auditor trustee to ensure that the parties expeditiously
perform their respective responsibilities as required by the agreement,
including the asset maintenance provisions. This provision is included
in the proposed consent order because such a large number of stores
must be divested and because the last of these divestitures may not
occur for 120 days. The interim auditor trustee shall serve until the
parties have completed all of the required divestitures. The interim
auditor trustee does not have any responsibilities relating to the
stores being divested to Certified Grocers once such divestitures have
been accomplished, even if Certified Grocers later divests 20 or more
of these stores to other retail operators.
The proposed consent order also enables the Commission to appoint a
trustee to divest any supermarkets or sites identified in the order
that Albertson's and American Stores have not divested to satisfy the
requirements of the proposed consent order. The proposed consent order
also enables the Commission to seek civil penalties against Albertson's
for non-compliance with the proposed consent order.
For a period of 10 years from the date the proposed consent order
becomes final, the Proposed Respondents are required to provide written
notice to the Commission prior to acquiring supermarket assets located
in, or any interest (such as stock) in any entity that owns or operates
a supermarket located in, Alameda, Amador, Contra Costa, Kern, Los
Angeles, Monterey, Napa, Nevada, Orange, Placer, Riverside, Sacramento,
San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz,
Solano, Sonoma, Ventura, or Yolo counties in California; Clark County
in Nevada; or Bernalillo, Dona Ana, Sandoval, or Santa Fe counties in
New Mexico. Proposed Respondents may not complete such an acquisition
until they have provided information requested by the Commission. This
provision does not restrict the Proposed Respondents from constructing
new supermarket facilities on their own; nor does it restrict the
Proposed Respondents from leasing facilities not operated as
supermarkets within the previous six months.
For a period of 10 years, the proposed consent order also prohibits
the Proposed Respondents from entering into or enforcing any agreement
that restricts the ability of any person that acquires any supermarket,
any leasehold interest in any supermarket, or any interest in any
retail location used as a supermarket on or after January 1, 1998, to
operate a supermarket at that site if such supermarket was formerly
owned or operated by the Proposed Respondents in Alameda, Amador,
Contra Costa, Kern, Los Angeles, Monterey, Napa, Nevada, Orange,
Placer, Riverside, Sacramento, San Bernardino, San Diego, San Luis
Obispo, Santa Barbara, Santa Cruz, Solano, Sonoma, Ventura, or Yolo
counties in California; Clark County in Nevada; or Bernalillo, Dona
Ana, Sandoval, or Santa Fe counties in New Mexico. In addition, the
Proposed Respondents may not remove fixtures or equipment from a store
or property owned or leased in these counties that is no longer in
operation as a supermarket, except (1) prior to a sale, sublease,
assignment, or change in occupancy or (2) to relocate such fixtures or
equipment in the ordinary course of business to any other supermarket
owned or operated by Proposed Respondents.
The Proposed Respondents are required to provide to the Commission
a report of compliance with the proposed consent order within thirty
days following the date on which they signed the proposed consent,
every thirty days thereafter until the divestitures are completed, and
annually for a period of 10 years.
The proposed consent order also has a provision relating to the
settlement agreements negotiated by California, Nevada and New Mexico.
If a State fails to approve any divestiture that has not been
completed, even though the parties are in compliance with the other
provisions of the proposed consent order, the time period in which the
divestiture must be completed will be extended 60 days, during which
the parties must exercise utmost good faith and best efforts to
resolves the concerns of that particular State.
V. Opportunity for Public Comment
The proposed consent order has been placed on the public record for
60 days for receipt of comments by interested persons. Comments
received during this period will become part of the public record.
After 60 days, the Commission will again review the proposed consent
order and the comments received and will decide whether it should
withdraw from the agreement or make the proposed consent order final.
By accepting the proposed consent order subject to final approval,
the Commission anticipates that the competitive problems alleged in the
complaint will be resolved. The purpose of this analysis is to invite
public comment on the proposed consent order, including the proposed
sale of supermarkets to Certified Grocers, Raley's, Ralphs, Stater, and
Vons, and the proposed divestitures by Certified Grocers to the various
independent buyers listed above, in order to aid the Commission in its
determination of whether to make the proposed consent order final. This
analysis is not intended to constitute an official interpretation of
the proposed consent order nor is it intended to modify the terms of
the proposed consent order in any way.
