FISCAL 2019 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL RESULTS

Consolidated

Net sales were $177.8 million compared with $181.4 million for the same prior year period, a decrease of 2.0%. Net sales during the just completed quarter were negatively impacted by a 30.2% decrease in consolidated international net sales, primarily due to lower sales in China.

Gross profit was $98.4 million compared with $96.7 million for the prior year period. Consolidated gross margin for the quarter was 55.3% compared with 53.3% for the prior year period. Retail sales, as a percent of total consolidated net sales, was 78.1% for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 compared with 75.5% in the prior year third quarter, which contributed to increasing consolidated gross margin.

Operating expenses were $87.7 million or 49.3% of net sales compared with $92.8 million or 51.2% of net sales in the same prior year period. The 5.5% decrease was primarily due a $6.4 million reduction in national television advertising costs. The prior year quarter also reflected a reduction in expenses due to the reversal of $1.5 million in accrued incentive compensation.

Operating income was $10.7 million or 6.0% of net sales compared with $3.9 million or 2.1% of net sales in the prior year period. Adjusted operating income was $11.0 million or 6.2% of net sales compared with $4.4 million or 2.4% of net sales for the same prior year period. Significant growth in operating income was primarily due to a reduction in national television advertising costs and the benefit of higher gross profit. The prior year quarter also reflected a reduction in expenses due to the reversal of accrued incentive compensation.

Income tax expense was $2.6 million and $1.2 million for the same prior year period. The effective rate in the current third quarter was 24.8% compared with 31.2% last year. The lower effective tax rate in fiscal 2019 is a result of the tax rate changes from the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017.

Net income was $8.0 million or $0.30 per diluted share compared with $2.6 million or $0.09 per diluted share in the prior year comparable period. Adjusted net income was $8.2 million or $0.31 per diluted share for the third quarter of fiscal 2019 and $3.0 million or $0.11 per diluted share a year ago.

Retail Segment

Net sales were $138.9 million compared with $136.9 million in the prior year comparable period, an increase of 1.5%. Comparative net sales were $135.2 million versus $134.5 million a year ago. There was a 1.9% increase in net sales in the U.S., while sales from the Canadian design centers decreased 9.6%.

Total written orders for the retail segment were up 1.4% compared with the same period last year, and comparable Design Center written orders were up 0.4% over the same period.

Operating income was a loss of $1.7 million, an improvement from a loss of $2.9 million over the same prior year period, driven primarily by growing net sales and improving margins.

Wholesale Segment

Net sales of $108.4 million compared with $118.9 million in the prior year quarter, a decrease of 8.9%. The lower net sales were primarily due to a reduction in sales to the North American retail network. The prior year quarter net sales benefitted from delayed shipments during the first half that had begun shipping during the quarter. Contract Sales increased for the current year quarter while international sales, especially to China, decreased.

Operating income of $13.0 million compared with $7.9 million a year ago, largely due to higher gross margin and lower advertising costs.

FISCAL 2019 YEAR-TO-DATE FINANCIAL RESULTS

Consolidated

Net sales were $562.8 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 compared with $561.2 million in the prior year, an increase of 0.3%. Retail net sales increased 2.6% while wholesale net sales decreased 4.1%.

Gross profit was $308.7 million compared with $304.8 million in the comparable prior year period. Consolidated gross margin for fiscal 2019 was 54.9% compared with 54.3%. A price increase earlier in fiscal 2019 improved gross profit, while lower wholesale sales volume negatively impacted gross profit. Retail sales as a percent of total consolidated net sales was 78.7% year-to-date compared with 76.9% in the prior year period, increasing our consolidated gross margin.

Operating expenses were $270.1 million or 48.0% of net sales compared with $271.9 million or 48.4% of net sales in the comparable prior year period.

Operating income was $38.6 million or 6.9% of net sales compared with $33.0 million or 5.9% of net sales last year. Adjusted operating income was $39.2 million or 7.0% of net sales compared with $34.0 million or 6.1% of net sales in the comparable prior year period. Operating income growth was from increased domestic retail sales and lower advertising costs partially offset by reduced sales in wholesale and increased variable logistics costs.

Income tax expense was $9.7 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 compared with $8.0 million a year ago. The fiscal 2019 effective rate was 25.0% compared with 24.4% in the prior year.

Net income was $29.0 million or $1.08 per diluted share compared with $24.9 million or $0.90 per diluted share in the prior year comparable period. Adjusted net income was $29.5 million or $1.10 per diluted share in fiscal 2019 compared with $25.7 million or $0.93 per diluted share a year ago.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

Total cash and cash equivalents of $25.7 million increased $3.4 million from June 30, 2018. Cash provided by operations totaling $44.3 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2019 were partially offset by the payment of $41.9 million in cash dividends, including a special dividend of $1.00 per share paid in January 2019.

Inventories of $164.6 million was comparable to the balance of $163.0 million at June 30, 2018.

Total debt of $9.2 million is an increase of $7.5 million from June 30, 2018 due to new borrowings under the Company’s revolving credit facility.

Capital expenditures were $7.0 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2019, a decrease of $2.1 million compared to the $9.1 million spent a year ago. Fiscal 2019 capital expenditures were primarily at retail design centers.

Cash Dividends paid during fiscal 2019 totaled $41.9 million, which represent the regular quarterly cash dividends of $0.19 per share (consistent with the prior fiscal year) as well as the special dividend of $1.00.

ABOUT NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This press release is intended to supplement, rather than to supersede, the Company's consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. 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 non-GAAP financial measures including adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted earnings per share (collectively “non-GAAP financial measures”). We compute these non-GAAP financial measures by adjusting the comparable GAAP measure to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and the related tax effect of these adjustments. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial measures presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and 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 prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measure reported in accordance with GAAP is provided at the end of this press release.

These forward-looking statements are subject to management decisions and various assumptions about future events and are not guarantees of future performance. Actual results could differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements due to a number of risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to: competition from overseas manufacturers and domestic retailers; anticipating or responding to changes in consumer tastes and trends in a timely manner; the ability to maintain and enhance the brand, marketing and advertising efforts and pricing strategies; changes in global and local economic conditions that may adversely affect consumer demand and spending, the manufacturing operations or sources of merchandise and international operations; changes in U.S. policy related to imported merchandise; an economic downturn; potentially negative or unexpected tax consequences of changes to fiscal and tax policies; the number of manufacturing and logistics sites; fluctuations in the price, availability and quality of raw materials; environmental, health and safety requirements; product safety concerns; disruptions to the Company’s technology infrastructure (including cyber-attacks); increasing labor costs, competitive labor markets and the continued ability to retain high-quality personnel and risks of work stoppages; loss of key personnel; its ability to obtain sufficient external funding to finance operations and growth; access to consumer credit; the effect of operating losses on its ability to pay cash dividends; additional impairment charges that could reduce profitability; the ability to locate new design center sites and/or negotiate favorable lease terms for additional design centers or for the expansion of existing design centers; results of operations for any quarter are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s results of operations for a full year; and possible failure to protect its intellectual property.
