TOANO, Va, February 22, 2012 – Lumber Liquidators (NYSE: LL), the largest specialty retailer of hardwood flooring in the U.S., today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended December 31, 2011, as well as its outlook for 2012.

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales increased $21.2 million, or 13.9%, to $174.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2011 from $153.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2010. Comparable store net sales increased 1.9% for the quarter, on top of an increase of 1.2% for the fourth quarter of the prior year, driven by an increase in both the number of customers served and the average sale. Non-comparable store net sales increased $18.3 million over the prior year period. The Company opened seven new stores during the fourth quarter of 2011 for a total of 40 new locations for the full year.

Gross margin was 35.5% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared to 34.0% in the fourth quarter of 2010. Gross margin benefited from lower product costs due primarily to the continued implementation of sourcing initiatives and certain favorable shifts in sales mix. Partially offsetting these gross margin benefits were higher net transportation costs and the clearance of certain in-store merchandise inventory.

Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $48.4 million, or 27.7% of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2011, compared to $42.7 million, or 27.9% of net sales, for the fourth quarter of 2010. The $5.7 million increase in SG&A expenses includes an increase of approximately $4.0 million in total compensation expenses, primarily due to store base growth and increases in benefit costs and sales commissions and bonuses. Occupancy costs and depreciation increased approximately $1.6 million due primarily to store base growth and the investment in the integrated information technology solution.

Net income increased 42.9% to $8.5 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011 from $5.9 million, or $0.21 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of the prior year. The effective tax rate was 38.7% in the fourth quarter of 2011 compared with 38.0% in the fourth quarter of 2010.

Cash and cash equivalents increased to $61.7 million at December 31, 2011 from $34.8 million at December 31, 2010, as operating activities provided $44.1 million in 2011, up from $17.0 million in 2010. Merchandise inventories decreased 15.4% on an available inventory per store basis as strong promotions drove net sales in the fourth quarter.

Robert M. Lynch, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We steadily regained traction throughout the fourth quarter and were pleased with our strong finish to 2011. While our bottom-line results for the quarter were below our expectations, we achieved a solid increase in both our top- and bottom-line versus the prior year period. We built on our third quarter 2011 results and our fourth quarter performance was our best of the year. We successfully reinvested a portion of our sourcing initiative benefits in the fourth quarter to further strengthen our value proposition, and our product allocation and logistics team significantly lowered available inventory per store. We believe that we are well-positioned to continue to gain share in our highly fragmented market and deliver multi-year expansion of our net sales and operating margin.”

Full Year Results

Net sales increased 9.9% to $681.6 million in 2011 from $620.3 million in 2010. Comparable store net sales decreased 2.0% in 2011, compared to an increase of 2.1% in the prior year. Non-comparable store net sales increased $73.8 million. The Company opened 40 new stores in 2011 and operated 263 stores in 46 states and Canada at December 31, 2011.

Gross margin increased to 35.3% in 2011 compared to 34.8% in the prior year. SG&A expenses in 2011 were $198.2 million, or 29.1% of net sales, compared to SG&A expenses in 2010 of $173.7 million, or 28.0% of net sales. Operating income in 2011 increased to $42.4 million, or 6.2% of net sales, from $42.2 million, or 6.8% of net sales, in 2010.

Net income in both 2011 and 2010 was $26.3 million, or $0.93 per diluted share. The Company’s effective tax rate was 39.0% for 2011, compared to an effective tax rate of 38.5% in 2010.

Share Repurchase Program

Lumber Liquidators also announced today that its Board of Directors has authorized the repurchase of up to $50 million of the Company’s common stock. The repurchases will be subject to market conditions and other factors and will be made from time to time through open market purchases or through privately negotiated transactions.

Company Outlook

In 2012, the Company expects to achieve the following:

Mr. Lynch concluded, “I am excited to lead the Company into 2012 with momentum building solidly over the last six months of 2011. Though we remain cautious in our near-term outlook due to potentially volatile consumer demand for large-ticket discretionary purchases, we have launched significant initiatives that we expect will provide cumulative benefits in the coming years. Our share repurchase program marks an important step in returning value to our shareholders, and expresses confidence in our proven store model. We expect to continue to build momentum in 2012, and generate meaningful year-over-year improvement in our top- and bottom-line results.”
