(1) Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Description of Business

hhgregg, Inc. (the “Company” or “hhgregg”) is a specialty retailer of consumer electronics, home appliances and related services operating under the name hhgreggTM. As of June 30, 2011, the Company had 180 stores located in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. The Company operates in one reportable segment.

Interim Financial Information

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). In the opinion of the Company’s management, these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all necessary adjustments, which are of a normal recurring nature, for a fair presentation of such data. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements of hhgregg and the notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011. The consolidated results of operations, financial position and cash flows for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of those to be expected for a full year. Further, the Company has made a number of estimates and assumptions relating to the assets and liabilities and the reporting of sales and expenses to prepare these unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of hhgregg and its wholly-owned subsidiary, Gregg Appliances, Inc. (“Gregg Appliances”). Gregg Appliances has a wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing LLC (“HHG Distributing”), which has no assets or operations.

(2) Fair Value Measurements

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable—trade, accounts receivable—other, accounts payable and customer deposits approximate fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The carrying amount of the Company’s line of credit approximates fair value as the interest rate is market based.

(3) Derivative Instruments

The Company only enters into derivative contracts that it intends to designate as a hedge of a forecasted transaction or the variability of cash flows to be received or paid related to a recognized asset or liability (cash flow hedge). For all hedging relationships, the Company formally documents the hedging relationship and its risk-management objective and strategy for undertaking the hedge, the hedging instrument, the hedged item, the nature of the risk being hedged, how the hedging instrument’s effectiveness in offsetting the hedged risk will be assessed prospectively and retrospectively, and a description of the method of measuring ineffectiveness. The Company also formally assesses, both at the hedge’s inception and on an ongoing basis, whether the derivatives that are used in hedging transactions are highly effective in offsetting cash flows of hedged items.

Cash Flow Hedges

During 2008, the Company entered into an interest-rate related derivative instrument to manage its exposure on $50 million of its senior secured term loan B (the “Term B Facility”). Upon the expiration of this interest rate swap agreement in October 2009 the Company entered into another derivative instrument to manage its exposure on $75 million of its Term B Facility effective October 2009 with an original expiration date of October 2011. This interest rate swap agreement was terminated on March 29, 2011 in connection with the repayment of our Term B Facility. There were no derivative instruments outstanding during the three months ended June 30, 2011.

Changes in the fair value of interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments that effectively offset the variability of cash flows associated with variable-rate, long-term debt obligations are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss. These amounts subsequently are reclassified into interest expense as a yield adjustment of the hedged interest payments in the same period in which the related interest affects earnings. The ineffective portion of the change in fair value of a derivative instrument that qualifies as a cash-flow hedge is reported currently in earnings.

For the three months ended June 30, 2010, the hedge was considered effective and $0.2 million was recorded into interest expense for recognized losses on the cash flow hedge. There were no cash flow hedges discontinued prior to their original maturity date in the three months ended June 30, 2010.

(5) Net (Loss) Income per Share

Net (loss) income per basic share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares. Net (loss) income per diluted share is calculated based on the weighted-average number of outstanding common shares plus the effect of potential dilutive common shares. When the Company reports net income, the calculation of net income per diluted share excludes shares underlying outstanding stock options with exercise prices that exceed the average market price of the Company’s common stock for the period and certain options and restricted stock units with unrecognized compensation cost, as the effect would be antidilutive. Potential dilutive common shares are composed of shares of common stock issuable upon the exercise of stock options and vesting of restricted stock units. The following table presents net (loss) income per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 (in thousands, except share and per share amounts):

   $ 5,850       $ —     

On March 29, 2011, Gregg Appliances entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Facility”). The Amended Facility increased the maximum credit available from $125 million to $300 million, subject to borrowing base availability, and extended the term of the facility to March 29, 2016. In connection with the amendment, the Company recorded a pre-tax loss related to the early extinguishment of debt of $0.3 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, which was primarily due to the write off of capitalized debt issuance costs.

Interest (other than Eurodollar rate borrowings) on borrowings is payable monthly at a fluctuating rate based on the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Interest on Eurodollar rate borrowings is payable on the last day of each “interest period” applicable to such borrowing or on the three month anniversary of the beginning of such “interest period” for interest periods greater than three months. The unused line rate is determined based on the amount of the daily

average of the outstanding borrowings for the immediately preceding calendar quarter period (the “Daily Average”). For a Daily Average greater than or equal to 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.375%. For a Daily Average less than 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.50%. The Amended Facility is guaranteed by Gregg Appliances’ wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing LLC (HHG), which has no assets or operations. The guarantee is full and unconditional and Gregg Appliances has no other subsidiaries.

Pursuant to the Amended Facility, the borrowing base was modified to equal the sum of (i) the lesser of (a) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of all eligible inventory of Gregg Appliances and (b) 75% of the net book value of such eligible inventory and (ii) 90% of all commercial and credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria. The Amended Facility required payment to the lenders of a commitment fee of approximately $1.1 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011.

Under the Amended Facility, Gregg Appliances is not required to comply with any financial maintenance covenant unless “excess availability” is less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit or (ii) $15.0 million until September 30, 2012 and $20.0 million thereafter, during the continuance of which event Gregg Appliances is subject to compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.

Pursuant to the Amended Facility, if Gregg Appliances has “excess availability” (i) less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit, it may, in certain circumstances more specifically described in the Amended Facility, become subject to cash dominion control.

The Amended Facility places limitations on the ability of Gregg Appliances to, among other things, incur debt, create other liens on its assets, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends, undertake transactions with affiliates, enter into merger transactions, enter into unrelated businesses, open collateral locations outside of the United States, or enter into consignment assignments or floor plan financing arrangements. The Amended Facility also contains various customary representations and warranties, financial and collateral reporting requirements and other affirmative and negative covenants. Gregg Appliances was in compliance with the restrictions and covenants in the Amended Facility at June 30, 2011.

As of June 30, 2011 under the Revolving Credit Facility, Gregg Appliances had $5.9 million of cash borrowings outstanding and $4.8 million of letters of credit outstanding which expire through December 31, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the total borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility was $170.5 million. The interest rate based on the bank’s prime rate as of June 30, 2011 was 4.5%.

As of March 31, 2011 under the Amended Facility, Gregg Appliances had no borrowings outstanding and $4.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, which expire through December 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the total borrowing availability under the Amended Facility was $127.1 million. The interest rate based on the bank’s prime rate as of March 31, 2011 was 4.5%.

Time Vested Restricted Stock Units. During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company granted 79,900 time vested restricted stock units (“RSUs”) under the 2007 Equity Incentive Plan to certain employees and directors of the Company. The time vested RSUs vest three years from the date of grant. Upon vesting, the outstanding number of time vested RSUs will be converted into shares of common stock. Time vested RSUs are forfeited if they have not vested before the employment of the holder terminates for any reason other than death or total permanent disability or certain other circumstances as described in the agreement. Upon death or disability, the holder is entitled to receive a fractional portion of the award based upon the period of time lapsed between the date of grant of the time vested RSU and the termination of employment. The fair value of time vested RSU awards is based on the Company’s stock price at the date of grant. The weighted average grant date fair value for the time vested RSUs issued during the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $14.20.

Performance-Based Restricted Stock Units. The Company awarded performance-based RSUs to certain officers of the Company during the three months ended June 30, 2011. Under these awards, a number of performance-based RSUs will be granted to each participant based upon the attainment of the applicable bonus targets as approved by the Compensation Committee. Performance-based RSUs are earned shortly after the end of the performance measurement period and vest three years after grant date. If a participant is not employed by the Company on the date the performance-based RSUs vest, the performance-based RSUs are forfeited, except in the case of death or total permanent disability or certain other circumstances as described in the agreement. Upon death or disability, the holder is entitled to receive a fractional portion of the award based upon the period of time lapsed between the date of grant of the performance-based RSU and the termination of employment if the applicable performance target was achieved. Additionally, to the extent performance conditions are not met, performance-based RSUs are forfeited.

During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company granted 73,080 performance-based RSUs. The fair value of performance-based RSUs is based on the Company’s stock price at the date of grant. The weighted average grant date fair value for the performance-based RSUs outstanding for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was $14.20.

ITEM 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. Our MD&A is presented in five sections:

 

   

Overview

 

   

Critical Accounting Polices

 

   

Results of Operations

 

   

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

   

Contractual Obligations

Our MD&A should be read in conjunction with the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes contained herein and the Consolidated Financial Statements for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011, included in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K, as filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011, and other publicly available information.

Overview

hhgregg, Inc. is a specialty retailer of consumer electronics, home appliances, and related services operating under the name hhgreggTM. As of June 30, 2011, we operated 180 stores in Alabama, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kentucky, Maryland, Mississippi, New Jersey, North Carolina, Ohio, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, Tennessee and Virginia. Unless otherwise indicated, “hhgregg” refers solely to hhgregg, Inc., “Gregg Appliances” refers solely to Gregg Appliances, Inc. and “we,” “us” and “our” refers to hhgregg, Inc. and its subsidiaries, including Gregg Appliances. References to fiscal years in this report relate to the respective twelve month period ended March 31. Our 2012 fiscal year is the twelve month period ending on March 31, 2012.

Throughout our MD&A, we refer to comparable store sales. Comparable store sales is comprised of net sales at stores in operation for at least 14 full months, including remodeled and relocated stores, as well as net sales for our e-commerce site. The method of calculating comparable store sales varies across the retail industry, and our method of calculating comparable store sales may not be the same as other retailers’ methods.

This overview section is divided into four sub-sections discussing our operating strategy and performance, store development strategy, business strategy and core philosophies and seasonality.

Operating Strategy and Performance. We focus the majority of our floor space, advertising expense and distribution infrastructure on the marketing, delivery and installation of a wide selection of premium video and appliance products. We display over 100 models of flat panel televisions and 350 major appliances in our stores with an especially broad assortment of models in the middle- to upper-end of product price ranges. Video and appliance net sales comprised 81% of our net sales mix for the three months ended June 30, 2011, and 84% of our net sales mix for the three months ended June 30, 2010.

We strive to differentiate ourselves through our customer purchase experience starting with a highly-trained, consultative commissioned sales force which educates our customers on the features and benefits of our products, followed by rapid product delivery and installation, and ending with helpful post-sales support services. We carefully monitor our competition to ensure that our prices are competitive in the market place. Our experience has been that informed customers often choose to buy a more heavily-featured product once they understand the applicability and benefits of its features. Heavily-featured products typically carry higher average selling prices and higher margins than less-featured, entry-level price point products.

Table of Contents

For fiscal 2012, we have implemented several initiatives designed to better position our business to drive additional traffic and increase sales in our comparable store base. The first initiative is to grow our appliance market share. We restructured our in-store management team to include an appliance sales manager and a dedicated consumer electronics manager, compared to our previous structure of having a sales manager and an operations manager. The appliance manager will focus on the appliance and bedding categories, increasing management focus and ensuring a superior customer purchase experience. We expect to increase our marketing efforts in the appliance category by having more appliance specific marketing messaging. Additionally, we will begin offering “white glove” installation services, which enhances our delivery and installation capabilities, and we will shift more appliance inventory from central warehouse facilities to store locations to accommodate the consumer’s needs in the appliance product category.

Our second initiative is our planned focus on the development of our home office category. This category currently includes computers and tablets, and will be expanded to include mobile phones in the second quarter of fiscal 2012. This development of our mobile phone business will include the integration of all of the Verizon Cellular Connection kiosks located within each of our stores into our internal operations. We expect this transition to be effective August 28, 2011. Prior to this time, the Verizon Cellular Connection kiosks will continue to be operated by a third party. In addition to mobile phones, we will seek to expand our assortment of computers, tablets, peripherals and computer service offerings.

Our next initiative for fiscal 2012 is the launch of our redesigned website. During fiscal 2012 we will launch the new website which will offer an updated look and feel, in addition to significant functionality enhancements. This increased functionality will include options to buy our products online and pick up in store and the ability to ship products bought online directly to consumers from store locations. Our new website design will also provide an enhanced purchase experience for our online customers, allowing them to interact directly with sales associates in our stores.

We also launched a new advertising campaign, “We Help,” which focuses on our commitment to educating consumers and helping them to complete their purchase experience with the right product for them at a great price. This campaign seeks to increase brand awareness among consumers and set hhgregg apart from our competitors.

Store Development Strategy. Over the past several years, we have adhered closely to a development strategy of adding stores to metropolitan markets in clusters to achieve rapid market share penetration and more efficiently leverage our distribution network, advertising and regional management costs. Our expansion plans include looking for new markets where we believe there is significant underlying demand for stores, typically in areas that have historically demonstrated above-average economic growth, strong household incomes and growth in new housing starts and/or remodeling activity. Our markets typically include most or all of our major competitors. We plan to continue to follow our approach of building store density in each major market and distribution area, which in the past has helped us to improve our market share and realize operating efficiencies.

During the past twelve months, we opened a net total of 23 new stores, all of which were opened in new markets, including Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania and Washington, DC. During the past twelve months, we also opened an eleventh local distribution center in Pembroke Park, Florida to support our growth plans. We opened 7 stores during the first fiscal quarter of 2012, and we remain on track to open between 35 and 40 new stores in fiscal 2012.

Business Strategy and Core Philosophies. Our business strategy is focused around offering our customers a superior customer purchase experience. From the time the customers walk in the door, they experience a well-designed, customer-friendly store. Our stores are brightly lit and have clearly distinguished departments that allow our customers to find what they are looking for. We greet and assist our customers with our highly trained consultative sales force, who educate the customers about the different product features.

Our products are rich in features and innovations and are ever-changing. We believe that customers find it helpful to have someone explain the features and benefits of a product. We believe this assistance allows them the opportunity to buy the product that most closely matches their needs. We follow up on the customer purchase experience by offering same-day delivery on many of our products and a high quality, in-home installation service.

While many of our product offerings are considered essential items by our customers, other products and certain features are viewed as discretionary purchases. As a result, our results of operations are susceptible to a challenging macro-economic environment. Factors such as changes in consumer confidence, unemployment, consumer credit availability and the condition of the housing market have negatively impacted our core product categories and added volatility to our overall business. As consumers show a more cautious approach to purchases of discretionary items, customer traffic and spending patterns continue to be difficult to predict.

The consumer electronics industry depends on new products to drive sales and profitability. Innovative, heavily-featured products are typically introduced at relatively high price points. Over time, price points are gradually reduced to drive consumption. Accordingly, there has been price compression in flat panel televisions for equivalent screen sizes over the past few years. According to the NPD Group, the prices of flat panel televisions in the industry have fallen more than 40% since January 2008. As with similar product life cycles for console televisions, DVD players and large-screen projection televisions, we have responded to this risk by shifting our sales mix to focus on newer, higher-margin televisions that feature 3-D and IPTV technology, with an increased focus on selection and larger screen sizes. We have also responded by adding an increased selection of computers and tablets to our product assortment, and placing a focus on the development of our home office category. However, lower than expected demand and pricing pressures could result in price points for higher featured items declining more quickly, and to a greater extent, than we have historically experienced.

Retail appliance sales are highly correlated to the housing industry and housing turnover. As more people purchase existing homes in the market, appliance sales tend to trend upward. Conversely, when demand in the housing market declines, appliance sales traffic is also negatively impacted. The appliance industry has benefited greatly from increased innovation in energy efficient products. While these energy efficient products typically carry a higher average selling price than traditional products, they save the consumer significant dollars in annual energy savings. Average unit selling prices of major appliances are not expected to change dramatically in the foreseeable future.

Seasonality. Our business is seasonal, with a higher portion of net sales and operating profit realized during the quarter that ends December 31 due to the overall demand for consumer electronics during the holiday shopping season. Appliance revenue is impacted by seasonal weather patterns but is less seasonal than our electronics business and helps to offset the seasonality of our overall business.

Critical Accounting Policies

We describe our critical accounting policies and estimates in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011. There have been no significant changes in our critical accounting policies and estimates since the end of fiscal 2011.

Net loss was $0.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011, or $(0.02) of net loss per diluted share, compared with net income of $2.7 million, or $0.07 of net income per diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease in net income for the period was the result of a comparable store sales decrease of 13.2%, an increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales, a decrease in gross margin rate and an increase in net advertising expense as a percentage of net sales, partially offset by the net addition of 23 stores during the past 12 months.

Net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased 1.0% to $431.5 million compared to $436.0 million in the comparable prior year period. The decrease in net sales for the three months ended June 30, 2011 was attributable the 13.2% comparable store sales decline along with the unfavorable comparison of only 7 store grand openings in the current quarter compared to 26 in the prior year period. These sales factors were partially offset by the net addition of 23 stores during the past 12 months.

Net sales mix and comparable store sales percentage changes by product category for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were as follows:

During the three month period ended June 30, 2011, our net sales mix continued to shift due to continued industry weakness in the video category along with an increased internal focus on the appliance and home office categories. The decrease in the comparable store sales for the video category for the three month period was due primarily to a double digit decline in average selling prices as well as a slight decrease in unit demand. The decrease in comparable store sales for the appliance category for the three month period ended June 30, 2011 was primarily due to lapping the increased demand in the prior year period that resulted from the government funded appliance stimulus programs, which were not repeated this year. The increase in the comparable store sales for the home office category was due to an increased offering of computers and tablets along with associated peripherals during the three month period ended June 30, 2011. The decrease in comparable store sales for the other category was due primarily to double digit comparable store sales decreases in cameras and camcorders and mid single digit decreases in small electronics.

Gross profit margin, expressed as gross profit as a percentage of net sales, decreased approximately 16 basis points for the three months ended June 30, 2011 to 30.2% from 30.4% for the comparable prior year period. This decrease was largely due to a shift within the net sales mix of our product categories. The home office category, which carries a gross profit margin lower than our company average, increased as an overall percentage of the mix which lowered our overall gross profit margin percentage. This was slightly offset by increased gross profit margins in the appliance category.

Selling, General and Administrative expense (“SG&A”), as a percentage of net sales, increased approximately 80 basis points for the three month period ended June 30, 2011. The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was due to the deleveraging impact of the comparable store sales decline coupled with the increase in pre-opening expenses associated with new store openings, which represented approximately $3.2 million. While similar investments were made in the prior year period, the prior year investments were largely offset by the sales generated from the grand openings in the same period. In the current year, pre-opening investments were made during the first fiscal quarter while the grand opening sales from these stores will benefit our second fiscal quarter. We plan to open 24 new stores in the Miami and Chicago markets during the second fiscal quarter.

Table of Contents

Net advertising expense, as a percentage of net sales, increased approximately 10 basis points during the three months ended June 30, 2011. The increase as a percentage of net sales for the three month period was driven largely by the deleveraging effect of our comparable store sales decrease, slightly offset by an increase in vendor support.

Our effective income tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2011 decreased to 17.2% from 39.4% in the comparable prior year period. The pretax loss incurred during the current quarter resulted in the recognition of an income tax benefit, which was partially offset by a charge to write off deferred tax assets associated with a reduction in the Company’s state income tax rate. This reduction in the state rate is the result of a scheduled reduction in Indiana’s corporate income tax rate beginning July 1, 2012.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table presents a summary on a consolidated basis of our net cash (used in) provided by operating, investing and financing activities (dollars are in thousands):

 

     Three Months Ended  
     June 30, 2011     June 30, 2010  

Net cash used in operating activities

   $ (36,585   $ (74,561

Net cash used in investing activities

     (28,990     (22,355

Net cash (used in) provided by financing activities

     (5,309     9,464   

Our liquidity requirements arise primarily from our need to fund working capital requirements and capital expenditures. We make capital expenditures principally to fund our expansion strategy, which includes, among other things, investments in new stores and new distribution facilities, remodeling and relocation of existing stores, as well as information technology and other infrastructure-related projects that support our expansion.

We plan to open between 35 and 40 new stores in addition to one regional distribution center and one local distribution center during fiscal 2012, of which 7 stores and one local distribution center had been opened as of June 30, 2011. During fiscal 2012, we plan to continue to invest in our infrastructure, including management information systems and distribution capabilities, as well as incur capital remodeling and improvement costs. We expect net capital expenditures, including tenant allowances from landlords, for fiscal 2012 store openings and relocations to range between $75 million and $80 million. Capital expenditures for fiscal 2012 will be funded through cash and cash equivalents, borrowings under our revolving credit facility and tenant allowances from landlords.

Cash Used in Operating Activities. Cash used in operating activities primarily consists of net (loss) income as adjusted for increases or decreases in working capital and non-cash depreciation and amortization. Cash used in operating activities was $36.6 million and $74.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The decrease in cash used in operating activities is primarily due to the change in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation and the net change in our other current operating assets and liabilities, offset by the change in income tax receivable. The change in cash flows related to excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation was the result of stock option exercises. The net change in other current operating assets and liabilities was primarily a result of differences in timing of customer sales and vendor payments.

Cash Used In Investing Activities. Cash used in investing activities was $29.0 million and $22.4 million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively. The increase in cash used in investing activities is due to the difference in timing of purchases of property and equipment associated with the opening of new stores. In the first quarter of fiscal 2012, we opened 7 new stores but also had construction in progress on new stores to be opened in our fiscal second quarter. In the first quarter of fiscal 2011, we opened 26 new stores, however we incurred a portion of their construction costs in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.

Cash (Used In) Provided by Financing Activities. Cash (used in) provided by financing activities was $(5.3) million for the three months ended June 30, 2011 compared to $9.5 million for the three months ended June 30, 2010. The decrease is primarily due to the $22.1 million in repurchases of treasury stock in fiscal 2012 and a decrease in excess tax benefits from stock-based compensation. The decreases were partially offset by an increase in cash as a result of a net increase in bank overdrafts, due to a difference in timing, and net borrowings on our line of credit.

Revolving Credit Facility. On March 29, 2011, Gregg Appliances entered into an Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the “Amended Facility”). The Amended Facility increased the maximum credit available from $125 million to $300 million, subject to borrowing base availability, and extended the term of the facility to March 29, 2016.

Interest (other than Eurodollar rate borrowings) on borrowings is payable monthly at a fluctuating rate based on the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. Interest on Eurodollar rate borrowings is payable on the last day of each “interest period” applicable to such borrowing or on the three month anniversary of the beginning of such “interest period” for interest periods greater than three months. The unused line rate is determined based on the amount of the daily average of the outstanding borrowings for the immediately preceding calendar quarter period (the “Daily Average”). For a Daily Average greater than or equal to 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.375%. For a Daily Average less than 50% of the defined borrowing base, the unused line rate is 0.50%. The Amended Facility is guaranteed by Gregg Appliances’ wholly-owned subsidiary, HHG Distributing LLC (HHG), which has no assets or operations. The guarantee is full and unconditional and Gregg Appliances has no other subsidiaries.

Pursuant to the Amended Facility, the borrowing base was modified to equal the sum of (i) the lesser of (a) 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of all eligible inventory of Gregg Appliances and (b) 75% of the net book value of such eligible inventory and (ii) 90% of all commercial and credit card receivables of Gregg Appliances, in each case subject to customary reserves and eligibility criteria. The Amended Facility required payment to the lenders of a commitment fee of approximately $1.1 million.

Under the Amended Facility, Gregg Appliances is not required to comply with any financial maintenance covenant unless “excess availability” is less than the greater of (i) 10.0% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit or (ii) $15.0 million until September 30, 2012 and $20.0 million thereafter, during the continuance of which event Gregg Appliances is subject to compliance with a fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.0 to 1.0.

Pursuant to the Amended Facility, if Gregg Appliances has “excess availability” (i) less than 12.5% of the lesser of (A) the defined borrowing base or (B) the defined maximum credit, it may, in certain circumstances more specifically described in the Amended Facility, become subject to cash dominion control.

The Amended Facility places limitations on the ability of Gregg Appliances to, among other things, incur debt, create other liens on its assets, make investments, sell assets, pay dividends, undertake transactions with affiliates, enter into merger transactions, enter into unrelated businesses, open collateral locations outside of the United States, or enter into consignment assignments or floor plan financing arrangements. The Amended Facility also contains various customary representations and warranties, financial and collateral reporting requirements and other affirmative and negative covenants. Gregg Appliances was in compliance with the restrictions and covenants in the Amended Facility at June 30, 2011.

As of June 30, 2011, Gregg Appliances had $5.9 million in borrowings outstanding under the Amended Facility and $4.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, which expire through December 31, 2011. As of June 30, 2011, the total borrowing availability under the Amended Facility was $170.5 million. The interest rate based on the bank’s prime rate as of June 30, 2011 was 4.5%.

As of March 31, 2011, Gregg Appliances had no borrowings outstanding under the Amended Facility and $4.8 million of letters of credit outstanding, which expire through December 31, 2011. As of March 31, 2011, the total borrowing availability under the Amended Facility was $127.1 million. The interest rate based on the bank’s prime rate as of March 31, 2011 was 4.5%.

Long Term Liquidity. Anticipated cash flows from operations and funds available from our Amended Facility, together with cash on hand, should provide sufficient funds to finance our operations for at the foreseeable future. As a normal part of our business, we consider opportunities to refinance our existing indebtedness, based on market conditions. Although we may refinance all or part of our existing indebtedness in the future, there can be no assurances that we will do so. Changes in our operating plans, lower than anticipated sales, increased expenses, acquisitions or other events may require us to seek additional debt or equity financing. There can be no guarantee that financing will be available on acceptable terms or at all. Additional debt financing, if available, could impose additional cash payment obligations and additional covenants and operating restrictions.

Contractual Obligations

We entered into lease commitments totaling approximately $15.5 million over their respective lease terms during the three months ended June 30, 2011. There have been no other significant changes in our contractual obligations since the end of fiscal 2011. See our “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011 for additional information regarding our contractual obligations.

These statements relate to future events or our future financial performance and involve known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our business’ or our industry’s actual results, levels of activity, performance or achievements to be materially different from those expressed or implied by any forward-looking statements. Such statements include, in particular, statements about our plans, strategies, prospects, changes, outlook and trends in our business and the markets in which we operate under the heading “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.” In some cases, you can identify forward-looking statements by terminology such as “may,” “will,” “could,” “would,” “should,” “expect,” “plan,” “anticipate,” “intend,” “tends,” “believe,” “estimate,” “predict,” “potential” or “continue” or the negative of those terms or other comparable terminology. These statements are only predictions. Actual events or results may differ materially because of market conditions in our industry or other factors. All of the forward-looking statements are qualified in their entirety by reference to the factors discussed under “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” herein, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our latest Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011 and the Risk Factors set forth in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011. The forward-looking statements are made as of the date of this document and we assume no obligation to update the forward-looking statements or to update the reasons why actual results could differ from those projected in the forward-looking statements.

 

ITEM 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

In addition to the risks inherent in our operations, we are exposed to certain market risks, including interest rate risk.

Interest Rate Risk

As of June 30, 2011, our debt was comprised of our Amended Facility.

Interest on borrowings under our Amended Facility is payable monthly at a fluctuating rate based on the bank’s prime rate or LIBOR plus an applicable margin. As of June 30, 2011, we had $5.9 million outstanding on our Amended Facility. A hypothetical 100 basis point increase in the bank’s prime rate would decrease our annual pre-tax income by approximately $0.1 million.

 

ITEM 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer), to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. We have established a Disclosure Committee, consisting of certain members of management, to assist in this evaluation. Our Disclosure Committee meets on a quarterly basis and more often if necessary.

Part II. Other Information

 

ITEM 1. Legal Proceedings

We are engaged in various legal proceedings in the ordinary course of business and have certain unresolved claims pending. The ultimate liability, if any, for the aggregate amounts claimed cannot be determined at this time. However, management believes, based on the examination of these matters and experiences to date, that the ultimate liability, if any, in excess of amounts already provided for in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements is not likely to have a material effect on our consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

 

ITEM 1A. Risk Factors

There have been no material changes to the risk factors set forth in the section entitled “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 26, 2011.
