        <ExplanationTxt>HY-VEE BENEFIT PLAN AND TRUST HAS A 52/53-WEEK TAX YEAR. THE TAX YEAR END IS THE CLOSEST SUNDAY TO 9/30. GIVEN THIS, THE TAX YEAR END FLUCTUATES BETWEEN THE MONTHS OF SEPTEMBER AND OCTOBER. THE IRS EXEMPT ORGANIZATION E-FILING SYSTEM ONLY ALLOWS A TAXPAYER'S YEAR END TO FALL ON THE SAME MONTH EACH YEAR, AS SUCH THE TAX RETURN IS UNABLE TO BE E-FILED USING THE CORRECT TAX YEAR END. BECAUSE FORMS 990 ARE MANDATED TO BE E-FILED, THIS RETURN HAS BEEN E-FILED USING A 9/30/23 YEAR END. THE ACTUAL TAX YEAR END FOR THE 2022 TAX YEAR IS 10/1/2023.</ExplanationTxt>
