Our business model is very successful and continues to benefit all of our stakeholders.We are executing at a high level, continuing to produce higher sales, comps and sales per square foot than our public competitors. Given our strong historical sales growth, record store development pipeline, and acceleration in store openings, we believe we are well positioned to achieve our goal of $12 billion in sales in the year 2010. Over the longer term, however, we believe the sales potential for Whole Foods Market is much greater than $12 billion as the market continues to grow and as our company continues to improve.
Our company is constantly experimenting, innovating and evolving and has a demonstrated track record of competing, executing and delivering strong results. Based on our 19 percent sales growth last year, we were pleased to learn that we moved up 38 spotsto No. 411 0n the Fortune 500 list of the largest public companies in the US. As expected,
we are going through an investment period as we accelerate our new store openings while comping against tough comparisons. We have grown our stock price at an average compound annual rate of 22 percent since gping public, and we encourage our shareholders to stay focused on the long term.
Please note that our press release includes an income statement9 balance sheet and cash flow statement, all of which are now available on our website at wholefoodsmarket com along with the scripted portion of this call.
For the first quarter, our sales increased 22 percent to $1.4 billion. This increase was driven by 15 percent. weighted average yearover-year square footage growth and 11.4 percent comparable store sales growth which was against a tough comparison of 14.7 percent comparable stores sales growth in the prior year. We continue to see healthy sales across the country. Even our stores in Southern California, which benefited from the UFCW strike last year, comped positively. Our average weekly store sales were a recor $516,000.
Our net income increased 27 percent to $49 million versus a 51% increase last year, diluted earnings per share increased 21 percent to $0. 73 against a 43 percent increase last,and we reported our fifth consecutive quarter of positive Economic Value Added which improved $3.3 million to $6.9 million. We are very pleased with our performance this quarter, particularly in light of our difficult year-over-year comparisons.
As a percentage of sales, our quarterly results for gross profit, direct store expenses, store contribution. and G&Amp; A expense were in line with our historical four-year average results.
We produced $122 million in cash from operations which allowed us to self fund $85 million in capital expenditures of which $56 million was for new stores, as well as pay $9 million to shareholders in the form of a cash dividencd.
Our balance sheet continues to improve. During the quarter, our cash balance increased $40 million to $261 million. Year over year, total assets increased 26 percent to $1.6 billion, total liabilities increased 8 percent to $508 million, and shareholders' equity increased 37 percent to $1.1 billion. At the end of the quarter, we had $101 million in long-term debt. During the quarter, approximately 137,000 of our Zero Coupon Convertible Debentures were voluntarily converted by bondholders to approximately l.5 million shares of common stock resulting in a decrease in that debt from $159 million at the end of last fiscal year to $89 million at the end of the first quarter.
