Coincidence?!? In stores by Sept 29th and a conference call on the 30th?

Walgreen Co. Fourth Quarter 2014 Earnings Conference Call
September 30, 2014 beginning at 8:30 AM ET
Conference Call


Front-end sales increased 1.5% in 2013, 3.6% in 2012 and 8.5% in 2011. The increase over the prior year was due, in part, to new store openings and improved sales related to non-prescription drugs, photofinishing products, convenience and fresh foods and beer and wine categories. Front-end sales were 37.1% of total sales in fiscal 2013, 36.8% of total sales in fiscal 2012 and 35.3% of total sales in fiscal 2011. Comparable drugstore front-end sales decreased 0.7% in 2013 compared to increases of 0.6% in 2012 and 3.3% in 2011. The decrease in fiscal 2013 comparable front-end sales was primarily attributable to lower customer traffic, which was offset to a lesser extent through an increase in basket size.
