Default Wide backing shrinkage ???

Purchased 2 pieces of 108" wide Wilmington Fabric from Hancock's of Paducah in early December. Just washed those two pieces as normal - cold wash, less heat dry for short time and finish dry on racks. And yikes, one piece is 99" wide and the other is 100.5" including selvages. Anyone experienced this much shrinkage on the width of fabric?
