FISCAL 2016 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS:
Consolidated
Net sales for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 increased 10.0% over the prior year to $190.6 million, with increases in both our retail and wholesale segments.
Gross profit was $105.7 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2016, an increase of $11.6 million, or 12.3% over the prior year quarter, and gross margin was 55.5% compared to 54.3% in the prior year quarter. Increased wholesale sales of 4.4% improved our manufacturing efficiency, and retail sales as a percent of total consolidated sales increased to 79.8% from 74.7%, further increasing our consolidated gross margin due to mix.
Operating expenses were $89.7 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, or 47.1% of sales compared to $84.9 million, or 49.0% of sales in the prior year quarter. Expenses increased in proportion to sales growth, mainly in our retail segment, exclusive of special items discussed below.
GAAP operating income increased 73.5% to $16.0 million, or 8.4% of sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to the prior year quarter GAAP operating income of $9.2 million, or 5.3% of sales. The increase was mostly due to increased sales, primarily in our retail segment where sales increased 17.5%. Adjusted operating income increased 55.0% to $15.5 million, or 8.2% of sales in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to adjusted operating income of $10.0 million, or 5.8% of sales in the same period of the prior year. Adjusted amounts exclude special items consisting of a $0.5 million gain on disposition of real estate in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, compared to a $0.8 million impairment on assets in the third fiscal quarter of last year. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP presentation.
Net income for the quarter ended March 31, 2016 was $10.2 million or $0.36 per diluted share compared to $2.5 million or $0.09 per diluted share in the prior year third quarter. Excluding special items, adjusted net income was $9.6 million or $0.34 per diluted share in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, and $5.3 million or $0.18 per diluted share in the same period of the prior year. Adjusted amounts exclude the special items noted above, a prior year loss on early extinguishment of our Senior Notes included in non-operating expense, and the effect of a normalized income tax rate of 36.5%. See Exhibit 1 for a reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP presentation.
Retail Segment
Net sales increased 17.5% to $152.2 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016, including a comparable design center net sales increase of 18.6%. Our new products are being well received and our marketing initiatives continue to generate consumer interest.
Comparable written orders for the Retail Division increased 5.5% for the third quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to the prior year third quarter and total written orders for the Retail Division increased 4.3% over the same prior year period.
Retail operating income of $0.6 million in the quarter ended March 31, 2016 improved over the loss in the same period of the prior year of $5.1 million, an increase of $5.1 million, of which $1.3 million was due to the special items noted above. The balance is largely due to the 17.5% sales increase.
Wholesale Segment
Net sales of $117.2 million increased 4.4%, with increased sales to our retail and domestic independent dealers, partially offset by decreases in international sales.
Wholesale operating income of $15.8 million increased 9.1% largely due to the increased sales, a benefit of our vertical integration.

Non-GAAP Financial Information
This press release is intended to supplement, rather than to supersede, the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”). In this press release we have included financial measures that are not prepared in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: “adjusted operating expenses”, “adjusted operating income”, “adjusted operating margin”, ”adjusted net income”, ”adjusted earnings per share”, and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), (collectively “non-GAAP financial measures”). We compute these non-GAAP financial measures by adjusting the GAAP measures to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and the tax effect of these adjustments. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in this press release may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures, including similarly titled measures, used by other companies.
