These financial statements are the responsibility of the Plan's management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on our audits. We conducted our audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement. An audit includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. An audit also includes assessing the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall financial statement presentation. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion. In our opinion, the financial statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the net assets available for plan benefits of the Plan as of December 31, 2002 and 2001, and the changes in net assets available for plan benefits for the years then ended in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. Our audits were performed for the purpose of forming an opinion on the basic financial statements taken as a whole. The supplemental schedule of assets (held at end of year) is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the basic financial statements but is supplementary information required by the Department of Labor's Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974. The supplemental schedule is the responsibility of the Plan's management. The fund information in the statements of net assets available for plan benefits and the statements of changes in net assets available for plan benefits is presented for purposes of additional analysis rather than to present the net assets available for plan benefits and changes in net assets available for plan benefits of each fund. The supplemental schedule and fund information have been subjected to the auditing procedures applied in the audits of the basic financial statements and, in our opinion, are fairly stated in all material respects in relation to the basic financial statements taken as a whole.

PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. 401(k) SMART PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (1) Description of Plan and Summary of Accounting Policies ------------------------------------------------------ The following brief description of the Publix Super Markets, Inc. 401(k) SMART Plan (the "Plan") provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan document or the summary plan description for a complete description of the Plan provisions. The Plan, which became effective January 1, 1995, is a voluntary defined contribution plan subject to the provisions of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended ("ERISA"). The Plan was amended on November 19, 2002 to reflect certain provisions of the Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 and certain other changes with various effective dates. The Plan was also amended and restated as of July 1, 2001 to include, among other changes, revised eligibility requirements to participate in the Plan, modifications to the loan provisions, a provision for participants to transfer matching contributions and earnings thereon from the Publix Stock Fund to one of the other investment fund options, the addition of a bond fund as a designated investment and GUST remediations as required under various governmental acts. Employees of Publix Super Markets, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiaries, Publix Alabama, LLC, PublixDirect, LLC and Publix Asset Management Company (the "Company" or "Publix") are eligible to participate in the Plan six months after their hire date, if they are at least 18 years of age. The Plan year is a calendar year. (a) Contributions ------------- During the Plan year 2002, eligible employees could contribute up to 10% of their annual eligible compensation (8% prior to January 1, 2002), subject to the maximum contribution limits established by Federal law. Participants may invest their contributions and the earnings thereon among eleven investment fund options offered under the Plan. The Company may make a discretionary annual matching contribution to eligible participants of the Plan as determined by the Company's Board of Directors. During 2002 and 2001, the Company's Board of Directors approved a match of 50% of eligible contributions up to 3% of eligible wages, not to exceed a maximum match of $750 per employee. The match, which is determined as of the last day of the Plan year and paid in the subsequent Plan year, was in the form of common stock of Publix Super Markets, Inc. Participants may request a transfer of the match and earnings thereon from the Publix Stock Fund to one of the other investment fund options, which is processed by the Plan Administrator on the next valuation effective date for the common stock of Publix Super Markets, Inc. (b) Participant Accounts -------------------- Two separate accounts are maintained for each participant, a Savings Contribution Account and a Matching Contribution Account (the "Accounts"). Plan earnings are allocated and credited to the Accounts as of each valuation date. Each participant's share of earnings is determined by the Plan Administrator on a weighted average basis, so that each participant receives a pro-rata share. Forfeitures of non-vested Company contributions by separated or former participants and of Accounts of separated or former participants or beneficiaries that cannot be located after two years are used to reduce future Company matching contributions. Forfeitures, and earnings thereon, totaled $158,939 and $264,412 for the years ended December 31, 2002 and 2001, respectively. (Continued) PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. 401(k) SMART PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (c) Vesting ------- Participants are immediately vested in their contributions and earnings thereon. For the Plan year 2002, Company matching contributions and earnings thereon were 100% vested upon completing three years of credited service (five years prior to January 1, 2002), reaching age 60, total disability or death. Matching contributions cannot be withdrawn or distributed until vested. (d) Loans to Participants --------------------- All actively employed Plan participants with available account balances may apply for a loan from their Accounts. The minimum amount a participant may borrow is $1,000. The maximum amount that a participant may borrow is the lesser of: 1) 50% of the balances in the participant's Savings Contribution Account and vested Matching Contribution Account; or 2) $50,000, less the participant's highest outstanding loan balance during the previous twelve month period. However, any money held by the participant in the Publix stock component of the Publix Stock Fund cannot be borrowed. Participants may initiate one loan each year and may only have one outstanding loan at a time. All legal and administrative costs incurred as a result of a loan are paid by the participant. The interest rate is determined by the Primary Trustee as of the first day of each calendar quarter based on the United States prime interest rate as published in the Wall Street Journal. The interest rate on a loan is fixed for the term of the loan. A participant can choose repayment terms of up to five years. Repayment of principal and interest are made through after-tax payroll deductions each pay period. Repayment of principal and interest are credited pro-rata to the participant's Savings Contribution Account and Matching Contribution Account and reinvested according to the participant's current investment elections. Upon separation of employment all unpaid principal and accrued interest on any loan outstanding is immediately due and payable. Participants may repay a loan in total at any time after the loan has been in effect for at least 90 days and participants must wait 30 days between paying off one loan and initiating a new loan. (e) Termination of Plan ------------------- The Company expects to continue the Plan indefinitely, but is not contractually obligated to do so. The Company reserves the right to amend or discontinue the Plan at any time. If the Plan is ever terminated, participants will be fully vested in all amounts credited to their Accounts. (f) Distribution of Benefits ------------------------ Benefits are recorded when paid. Upon reaching age 59 1/2, a participant who is actively employed by the Company may elect to withdraw all or a portion of his/her Savings Contribution Account and the vested portion of his/her Matching Contribution Account. The minimum withdrawal amount is $1,000 or the vested balance in the Accounts if less than $1,000. A participant who reaches age 70 1/2 may begin receiving a distribution of benefits on or before April 1st of the calendar year following the year in which the participant reaches age 70 1/2 or retires, whichever is later. -2- (Continued) PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. 401(k) SMART PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 Upon separation of service, retirement, disability or death, participants or their beneficiaries may elect to receive full distribution of their Savings Contribution Account and their vested Matching Contribution Account balances as of the valuation date immediately preceding the date of distribution, subject to certain restrictions on the sale of Publix stock. If the value of the participant's vested Accounts is $5,000 or less, the participant will receive an automatic distribution from the Plan no later than 60 days after the end of the Plan year in which the participant separates from employment. If the value of the participant's Savings Contribution Account and vested Matching Contribution Account exceeds $5,000 and the participant is not 62 years of age or older, the participant may elect to defer distribution. Payment of deferred distributions must be made to a participant or his/her beneficiary no later than 60 days after the end of the Plan year in which the participant reaches age 62. If the beneficiary is the participant's surviving spouse and the value of the participant's Savings Contribution Account and vested Matching Contribution Account exceeds $5,000, such beneficiary may defer distribution until the participant would have reached age 70 1/2. (g) Basis of Accounting ------------------- The financial statements of the Plan are prepared using the accrual basis of accounting. (h) Investments ----------- The market value of Publix Super Markets, Inc. common stock is based upon quarterly appraisals prepared by an independent appraiser. The fair value of other investments is determined based upon quoted market prices. Purchases and sales of securities are recorded on a trade date basis. Dividends are recorded on the ex-dividend date. Investment securities are exposed to various risks, such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect the amounts reported in the financial statements and schedules of the Plan. (i) Use of Estimates ---------------- The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles and ERISA requires the Plan to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of net assets available for plan benefits and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of changes in net assets available for plan benefits during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. -3- (Continued) PUBLIX SUPER MARKETS, INC. 401(k) SMART PLAN Notes to Financial Statements December 31, 2002 and 2001 (2) Administration of the Plan -------------------------- The Primary Trustee for the Plan, State Street Bank and Trust Company, is responsible for maintaining custody of the investment funds and other assets in which the employee contributions are invested, excluding Publix stock.

Three MetLife/UAM TimeStyle Portfolios were the investment vehicles for the Asset Allocation Funds through July 2, 2001.

This fund invested in the securities of U.S. and international companies that were believed to be undervalued. Effective July 3, 2001, the "Smith Barney Large Cap Growth (A) Fund," a mutual fund, was selected as the investment vehicle for the Aggressive/Large Cap Growth Fund.

Effective July 3, 2001, the "SSgA S&P 500 Index Fund," a mutual fund, was selected as the Equity Index/S&P 500 Index Fund. This fund buys and holds stocks in the same market-weighted proportions as the S&P 500 Index, and trades stocks only when there is a change in the S&P 500 Index. The fund is designed for moderate to aggressive investors seeking to invest in the stocks of the S&P 500 Index. (g) Intermediate Term Bond Fund --------------------------- This fund seeks to control market risk while maximizing income by investing in investment-grade fixed income securities with an intermediate maturity.

Cash awaiting investment in Publix stock is invested in a short-term fixed income funding vehicle (MetLife GIC through July 2, 2001; beginning July 3, 2001, SSgA Yield Enhanced Short Term Investment Fund, a commingled fund). The cash component of this fund includes employee contributions and loan repayments, transfers from other investments to purchase Publix stock, dividends earned on Publix stock and income earned on all of these deposits. The cash component of this fund is used to purchase Publix stock on specified purchase dates. The fund provides an opportunity for long-term capital growth.
