Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. Announces Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2016 Financial Results

IRVINE, Calif.--()--Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (NYSE:BOOT) today announced its financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 26, 2016.

Highlights for the quarter ended March 26, 2016, were as follows:

  • Net sales increased 45% to approximately $149.5 million;
  • Opened four new stores;
  • Consolidated same store sales declined 1.2%;
  • Pro forma adjusted net income was $2.5 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $0.17 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Net income was $1.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis.

Highlights for the year ended March 26, 2016, were as follows:

  • Net sales increased 41% to $569.0 million;
  • Acquired 25 Sheplers stores and closed six of those stores. Opened 22 new stores and closed two stores, ending the fiscal year with 208 stores;
  • Consolidated same store sales essentially flat at -0.1%;
  • Pro forma adjusted net income was $18.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, compared to $0.72 per diluted share in fiscal year 2015. Net income was $9.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, on a GAAP basis.

1) Pro forma adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measure. An explanation of the computation of this measure and a reconciliation to GAAP net income is included below. See also "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Jim Conroy, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “While the continued impact from low commodities prices on some of our key markets resulted in fourth quarter performance that was below our expectations, we made further progress towards our long-term targets. During the quarter we grew net sales, increased our higher-margin private brand penetration, and opened four new Boot Barn stores. During the fiscal year we opened 22 new Boot Barn stores and completed the acquisition and integration of Sheplers, which has significantly elevated our e-commerce capabilities and expanded our market share in key markets. Overall, we solidified our position as the largest omni-channel western and work wear retailer in the U.S. While the current market environment remains challenging, and it is difficult to predict when external pressures to our business will subside, we believe we have appropriately positioned our merchandise offering, marketing strategy, and inventory levels to manage through this cycle and we continue to appropriately invest in our business for long-term growth and increased value for our shareholders.”

Operating Results for the Fourth Quarter Ended March 26, 2016

  • Net sales increased 45% to $149.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, from $103.3 million in the prior-year period. Net sales increased due to contributions from recently acquired Sheplers and 22 new stores opened during fiscal year 2016, partially offset by a decrease of 1.2% in consolidated same store sales.
  • Adjusted gross profit was $43.9 million or 29.4% of net sales (on a GAAP basis, gross profit was $42.4 million or 28.4% of net sales) in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, an increase of $9.9 million, or 29.2%, from gross profit of $34.0 million, or 32.9% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Adjusted gross profit excludes acquisition-related integration costs, including an adjustment to normalize the impact of Sheplers’ discontinued inventory, contract termination costs and the amortization of inventory fair value adjustment. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” Adjusted gross profit increased as a result of the addition of the Sheplers business and the opening of 22 new stores. As a percentage of sales, consolidated gross margin declined primarily due to a higher percentage of historically lower-margin Sheplers sales compared to the prior year period when the Company did not own Sheplers. Also contributing to the decline was a higher shrink adjustment at the Sheplers business, unfavorable freight costs at the core Boot Barn business and occupancy deleverage.
  • Adjusted income from operations was $7.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, a decrease of 8.5%, compared to $8.4 million in the prior-year period, driven primarily by higher depreciation and amortization expense, additional expenses associated with Sheplers, and the higher shrink adjustment. Adjusted income from operations excludes acquisition-related integration costs, loss on disposal of assets and contract termination costs, and the amortization of inventory fair value adjustment incurred in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” On a GAAP basis, income from operations was $5.6 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016 compared to $7.8 million in the prior-year period.
  • During the fourth quarter, the Company opened four Boot Barn stores and closed two stores, ending the quarter with 208 stores in 29 states.
  • Pro forma adjusted net income was $2.5 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, compared to $4.6 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the prior-year period. The decrease is primarily the result of an additional $2.4 million, or $0.05 per diluted share, of pro forma adjusted interest expense combined with $0.01 per diluted share of higher shrink recorded in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures.” On a GAAP basis, net income was $1.0 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2016, compared to $2.6 million, or $0.10 per diluted share in the prior-year period.

A reconciliation of adjusted gross profit, adjusted income from operations, pro forma adjusted net income and pro forma adjusted net income per diluted share, each a non-GAAP financial measure, to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying financial data. See also "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Operating Results for the Fiscal Year Ended March 26, 2016

  • Net sales increased 41% to $569.0 million from $402.7 million in fiscal year 2015. Net sales increased due to contributions from recently acquired Sheplers, 22 new stores opened during fiscal year 2016, partially offset by a decrease of 0.1% in consolidated same store sales.
  • Adjusted gross profit was $178.0 million or 31.3% of net sales (on a GAAP basis, gross profit was $173.2 million or 30.4% of net sales), an increase of $43.2 million, or 32.1%, from gross profit of $134.8 million, or 33.5% of net sales, in fiscal year 2015. Adjusted gross profit increased as a result of the addition of the Sheplers business and the opening of 22 new stores. The decline in adjusted gross profit margin rate was primarily driven by the composition of the lower margin Sheplers e-commerce business and rebranded Sheplers stores that are included in the consolidated Boot Barn results for the final three quarters of fiscal year 2016 but were not part of Boot Barn in fiscal year 2015.
  • Adjusted income from operations was $42.7 million in fiscal year 2016, an increase of 20.4%, compared to $35.4 million in fiscal year 2015. On a GAAP basis, income from operations was $30.2 million, compared to $35.4 million in fiscal year 2015.
  • The Company acquired 25 Sheplers stores, opened 22 Boot Barn stores, closed six Sheplers and two Boot Barn stores, and ended the period with 208 stores in 29 states.
  • Pro forma adjusted net income was $18.7 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, in fiscal year 2016, compared to $19.0 million, or $0.72 per diluted share in fiscal year 2015. The decrease is primarily due to an additional $6.7 million, or $0.15 per diluted share of pro forma adjusted interest expense in fiscal year 2016. On a GAAP basis, net income was $9.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to net income of $13.7 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, in fiscal year 2015.

A reconciliation of adjusted gross profit, adjusted income from operations, pro forma adjusted net income and pro forma adjusted net income per diluted share, each a non-GAAP financial measure, to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measures is included in the accompanying financial data. See also "Non-GAAP Financial Measures."

Balance Sheet Highlights as of March 26, 2016

  • Total net borrowings: $242.4 million
  • Total liquidity (cash plus availability on $125 million revolving credit facility): $83.4 million

Fiscal Year 2017 Outlook

For the fiscal year ending April 1, 2017 the Company expects:

  • Consolidated same store sales between slightly negative to slightly positive.
  • Income from operations between $42.4 million and $46.8 million.
  • Net income of $16.9 million to $19.6 million,
  • Net income per diluted share of $0.63 to $0.73 based on 26.8 million weighted average diluted shares outstanding. Fiscal year 2017 is a 53-week year and the Company expects to earn approximately $0.03 per diluted share in the 53rd week, which is included in the above guidance range. Fiscal year 2017 net income per diluted share will compare to $0.66 per diluted share in fiscal year 2016, after assuming the Company had acquired Sheplers at the beginning of fiscal year 2016.

For the fiscal first quarter ending June 25, 2016 the Company expects:

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Company presents adjusted gross profit, adjusted income from operations, pro forma adjusted net income and pro forma adjusted net income per diluted share to help the Company describe its operating and financial performance. These financial measures are non-GAAP financial measures and should not be construed in isolation or as an alternative to actual gross profit, actual income from operations, actual net income and actual earnings per diluted share and other income or cash flow statement data (as presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, or GAAP), or as a better indicator of operating performance or as a measure of liquidity. These non-GAAP financial measures, as defined by the Company, may not be comparable to similar non-GAAP financial measures presented by other companies. The Company’s management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide investors with transparency and help illustrate financial results by excluding items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, the Company’s core operating results, thereby providing a better baseline for analyzing trends in the underlying business. See the table at the end of this press release for a reconciliation of adjusted gross profit to gross profit, adjusted income from operations to income from operations, pro forma adjusted net income to net income, and pro forma adjusted net income per diluted share to net income per diluted share.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to our current expectations and projections relating to, by way of example and without limitation, our financial condition, liquidity, profitability, results of operations, margins, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, business and industry. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "project", "plan“, "intend", "believe", “may”, “might”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “can have”, “likely”, “outlook” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events, but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this press release, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: the failure to realize the anticipated synergies from the Sheplers acquisition and other risks of integration, decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences and the Company’s ability to effectively execute on its growth strategy; to maintain and enhance its strong brand image; to compete effectively; to maintain good relationships with its key suppliers; and to improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this press release after the date of this press release.

(f) Reflects estimated incremental legal, accounting, insurance and other compliance costs in the first three quarters of fiscal year 2015 as if the Company had been a public company during such quarters. Actual public company costs incurred in fiscal year 2016 are reflected in GAAP income from operations.

(h) Represents the write off of debt discounts and debt issuance costs associated with the previously extinguished Wells Fargo Credit Facility.

(j) The provision for income taxes uses an effective tax rate of 39.95% for the fifty-two week period ended March 26, 2016, compared to the Company's tax rate of 43.0% and applies it to the non-GAAP income before taxes. The Company's tax rate was impacted by expenses associated with the Sheplers acquisition. Excluding these one-time events, the tax rate would have been 39.95%.
(k) In April 2014, holders of vested stock options received a cash payment of $1.4 million, which the Company deducted from net income for purposes of the earnings per share calculation to determine the net income available to common shareholders. The Company has added this payment to the net income in order to calculate pro forma adjusted diluted earnings per share.
(l) These shares represent shares issued at the time of the IPO and are shown as if they had been issued on March 31, 2013.

_______________

1Adjustments to Boot Barn's Adjusted EBITDA as stipulated in the 2015 Golub Term Loan and June 2015 Wells Fargo Revolver include pre-opening costs, franchise and state taxes, and other miscellaneous adjustments. For Q4 FY15 and Q1 FY16, the adjustments also include Sheplers EBITDA, as Sheplers' results were not included in Boot Barn consolidated results until Q2 FY16, the period in which Boot Barn acquired Sheplers.
2Consolidated EBITDA for the thirteen weeks ended Q4 FY15 was given to the Company in the 2015 Golub Term Loan and June 2015 Wells Fargo Revolver agreements, as the additional EBITDA contribution from the acquisition of Sheplers in June 2015 was not already included in the Company's consolidated EBITDA for the thirteen weeks ended March 28, 2015. As such, the additional adjustments to arrive at the consolidated EBITDA used in the loan covenant compliance calculation is larger than those adjustments in the subsequent periods presented.
 
(a) Represents non-cash compensation expenses related to stock options, restricted stock awards and restricted stock units granted to certain of our employees and directors.
(b) Represents the non-cash accrual for future award redemptions in connection with our customer loyalty program.
(c) Includes direct costs and fees related to the Sheplers Acquisition.
(d) Represents certain store integration, remerchandising, inventory obsolescence and corporate consolidation costs incurred in connection with the integration of Sheplers. Includes an adjustment to normalize the gross margin impact of discontinued inventory from Sheplers, which was sold at a discount or written off. The adjustment assumes such inventory was sold at Sheplers' normalized margin rate.
(e) Represents the amortization of purchase-accounting adjustments that decreased the value of inventory acquired to its fair value.
(f) Represents loss on disposal of assets and contract termination costs from store closures and unused office and warehouse space.
(g) Represents professional fees and expenses incurred in connection with a Form S-1 Registration Statement filing in July 2015 and withdrawn in November 2015, and a secondary offering held in February 2015.
