Excluding $40.3 million in merger charges from its $13.5 billion acquisition of the West Coast operator Fred Meyer Inc., Cincinnati-based Kroger earned $231 million or 54 cents. The Fred Meyer acquisition included the Smith's Food & Drug and PriceRite stores in Las Vegas.
Kroger said the first quarter results were 20 percent more than estimated combined earnings of 45 cents per share from the same period a year ago.
