Digital sales grew 31% during the quarter. We are pleased with the improvement of trends in our supermarket business in the second quarter. Gross margin headwinds in pharmacy were offset by strong fuel performance during the quarter.

We delivered strong free cash flow and are now within our targeted net total debt to adjusted EBITDA range.
