EXPRESS, INC. REPORTS A 24% INCREASE IN THIRD QUARTER NET INCOME AND DILUTED EPS OF $0.37, EXCEEDING GUIDANCE
• | Net sales rise 8% and comparable sales increase 5% |
• | Operating margin expands 90 basis points to 12.5% |
• | Raises full year 2011 guidance to $1.61 to $1.65 per share |
Columbus, Ohio - November 30, 2011 - Express, Inc. (NYSE: EXPR), a specialty retail apparel chain operating 607 stores, today announced its third quarter financial results for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended October 29, 2011, which compares to the same periods ended October 30, 2010.
Michael Weiss, Express, Inc.'s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and President commented: “We are pleased to continue our positive momentum from the first half of the year and report better-than-expected third quarter earnings. We believe this is a testament to the increasing awareness and strength of our brand as a leading fashion authority for our customers. During the quarter, we advanced each of our growth pillars. Increased sales productivity and profitability were driven by balanced growth across genders and categories resulting in a 5% increase in comparable sales. We grew our e-commerce channel by 41%, and our new stores performed ahead of our expectations. In addition, we continue to be pleased with our new store design and plan to expand this format to our new and remodeled stores beginning in late Spring 2012. Our international expansion continued successfully with the launch of two new
stores in Canada. Our confidence is further validated by a great start to the season with record Black Friday sales. We continue to expect the combination of our data-driven strategies and brand-building initiatives to lead to another quarter of strong results and continued accomplishments toward our long term goals and objectives.”
Third Quarter Operating Results:
• | Net sales increased 8% to $486.8 million from $450.6 million in the third quarter of 2010; |
• | Comparable sales increased 5% following a 5% increase in comparable sales in the third quarter of 2010; |
• | Gross margin decreased 30 bps to approximately 36.2% of net sales compared to 36.5% in the third quarter of 2010. During the third quarter, the anticipated 50 basis point impact of fabric cancellation costs and increased product sourcing costs were partially offset by gross margin expansion related to the on-going benefit realized from the Company's Go-to-Market strategy and 20 bps of buying and occupancy leverage; |
• | Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $115.1 million, or 23.6% of net sales. This compares to SG&A expenses of $111.3 million, or 24.7% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2010, which included $0.2 million of non-core operating costs related to the secondary offering completed on December 9, 2010; |
• | Operating income increased 16.6% to $60.9 million, or 12.5% of net sales, compared to $52.2 million, or 11.6% of net sales, in the third quarter of 2010; |
• | Interest expense totaled $6.3 million compared to interest expense of $7.6 million in the third quarter of 2010; |
• | Income tax expense was $22.0 million, at an effective tax rate of approximately 40.3%, compared to tax expense of $18.4 million, at an effective tax rate of approximately 41.2%, in the third quarter of 2010; and |
• | Net income was $32.7 million, or $0.37 per diluted share on 88.9 million weighted average shares outstanding. This compares to net income of $26.3 million, or $0.30 per diluted share on 88.7 million weighted average shares outstanding, in the third quarter of 2010, which included $0.1 million of after-tax non-core operating costs associated with the Company's secondary offering completed on December 9, 2010. |
Thirty-Nine Week Operating Results:
• | Net sales increased 9% to $1,400.2 million from $1,284.3 million in the prior year period, and year-to-date comparable sales increased 6%. This follows a 9% increase in comparable sales in the prior year period; |
• | Gross margin increased 80 bps to 36.0% of net sales compared to 35.2% of net sales in the prior year period; |
• | SG&A expenses totaled $342.2 million, or 24.4% of net sales, and included $0.6 million of non-core operating costs related to the secondary offering completed on April 6, 2011. This compares to SG&A expenses of $325.2 million, or 25.3% of net sales, in the prior year period, which included $2.9 million of non-core operating costs related to the Senior Notes offering completed on March 5, 2010, initial public offering completed on May 18, 2010, and secondary offering completed on December 9, 2010; |
• | Other operating income, net was $0.2 million. This compares to other operating expense, net of $17.8 million, or 1.4% of net sales, in the prior year period, which included a $13.3 million one-time fee paid to Golden Gate Capital and Limited Brands related to the termination of the advisory arrangements with them in connection with the initial public offering; |
• | Operating income increased approximately 49.3% to $162.0 million, or 11.6% of net sales, compared to $108.5 million, or 8.5% of net sales, in the prior year period; |
• | Interest expense totaled $27.8 million and included a $7.2 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the repurchases of $49.2 million of Senior Notes and the Opco Revolving Credit Facility amendment. This compares to interest expense of $51.7 million in the prior year period, which included a $20.8 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the prepayment of debt in connection with the Senior Notes offering and initial public offering; |
• | Income tax expense was $54.1 million, at an effective tax rate of approximately 40.2%, compared to a tax benefit of $20.1 million in the prior year period. The change in tax expense is a result of the Company's conversion to a corporation, effective for tax purposes May 2, 2010, in connection with its initial public offering in the second quarter of last year; |
• | Net income was $80.3 million, or $0.90 per diluted share on 88.8 million weighted average shares outstanding, and included the following non-core operating costs after tax: (i) $0.3 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, of costs related to the 2011 secondary offering; and (ii) $4.3 million, or $0.04 per diluted share, loss on extinguishment related to the repurchases of $49.2 million of Senior Notes and Opco Revolving Credit Facility amendment. This compares to net income of $79.0 million, or $0.93 per diluted share on 85.2 million weighted average shares outstanding, in the prior year period, which included the following non-core operating costs after tax: (i) $2.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, of costs related to the Senior Notes offering, initial public offering, and 2010 secondary offering; (ii) $8.0 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, of fees paid to Golden Gate Capital and Limited Brands related to the termination of advisory arrangements with them in connection with the initial public offering; and (iii) $15.3 million, or $0.18 per diluted share, loss on extinguishment of debt related to the prepayment of debt in connection with the Senior Notes offering and initial public offering. These costs were more than offset by a one-time tax benefit of $31.8 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, recognized in connection with the Company's conversion to a corporation; and |
• | Net income, adjusted for non-core operating costs noted above primarily related to the repurchases of Senior Notes and the 2011 secondary offering (see Schedule 4 for discussion of non-GAAP measures), was $85.0 million, or $0.96 per diluted share. This compares to net income, adjusted for non-core operating costs noted above related to the Senior Notes offering, initial public offering, and 2010 secondary offering (see Schedule 4 for discussion of non-GAAP measures), of $72.9 million, or $0.86 per diluted share. |
Third Quarter Balance Sheet Highlights:
• | Cash and cash equivalents totaled $145.0 million compared to $81.8 million at the end of the third quarter 2010; |
• | Inventories were $278.5 million, an increase of 15.9%, compared to $240.3 million at the end of the third quarter of 2010. The increase in inventory compared to the third quarter of last year reflects earlier receipt of holiday merchandise to capitalize on the season and an increase in new spring deliveries versus last year to support testing, which is consistent with our go-to-market strategy. In addition, end of quarter inventory also reflects funding for continued e-commerce growth, new stores, and new category growth, as well as to support our fourth quarter sales plans. Inventory per square foot increased approximately 5.4% compared to the third quarter of 2010; |
• | Debt declined by $49.4 million to $318.2 compared to $367.6 million at the end of the third quarter of 2010 driven by the repurchases of $49.2 million of Senior Notes during the first and second quarters of 2011. |
Store Expansion:
During the third quarter of 2011, the Company opened 8 new stores, including 6 stores in the United States and 2 stores in Canada, marking the Company's initial entry into the Canadian market. At quarter end, the Company operated 607 stores and had approximately 5.3 million gross square feet in operation.
2011 Guidance:
Tax Rate:
The Company estimates that its effective tax rate for the fourth quarter and full year 2011 will be approximately 40.3%. This compares to an effective tax rate of approximately 41.6% and 10.1% for the fourth quarter of 2010 and full year 2010, respectively. The expected increase in the effective tax rate for the full year 2011 compared to the prior year period reflects the Company's conversion to a corporation in connection with its initial public offering in the second quarter of 2010.
Fourth Quarter:
The Company currently expects fourth quarter 2011 comparable sales to increase mid single digits compared to an increase of 12% in the fourth quarter of 2010. Net income is expected in the range of $59 million to $62 million, or $0.66 to $0.70 per diluted share on 89.1 million shares outstanding. This compares to adjusted net income of $48.9 million, or $0.55 per diluted share on 88.7 million shares outstanding, in the fourth quarter of 2010 (see Schedule 4 for discussion of non-GAAP measures). The Company expects to open 6 new stores in the fourth quarter, including 2 in the United States and 4 in Canada, and close 4 stores in the United States to end the year with 609 stores and approximately 5.3 million gross square feet in operation.
Full Year:
The Company is increasing its full year 2011 guidance. The Company currently expects full year comparable sales to increase at the upper end of its previously indicated mid single digit guidance compared to an increase of 10% for full year 2010. Adjusted earnings are expected in the range of $1.61 to $1.65 per diluted share on 88.9 million shares outstanding (see Schedule 4 for discussion of non-GAAP measures), which is increased from its previous guidance of adjusted earnings in the range of $1.57 to $1.63 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted earnings of $1.42 per diluted share on 86.1 million shares outstanding in 2010 (see Schedule 4 for discussion of non-GAAP measures). This guidance implies adjusted operating income growth between 24% and 27% over adjusted operating income for full year 2010 (see Schedule 4 for discussion non-GAAP measures). The Company plans to open 27 new stores in the United States and Canada and close 9 existing locations in the United States, ending the year with 609 locations and approximately 5.3 million gross square feet in operation.

Supplemental Information - Consolidated Statements of Income
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company supplements the reporting of their financial information determined under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per diluted share. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide meaningful information to assist stockholders in understanding its financial results and assessing its prospects for future performance. Management believes adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per diluted share are important indicators of their operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, their core operating results and provide a better baseline for analyzing trends in their underlying business. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, and earnings per diluted share. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing an aspect of the Company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures below, provide a more complete understanding of the Company's business. Management strongly encourages investors and stockholders to review their financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure.
