The Company will hold a conference call today at 7:30 a.m. Central Time to discuss these results and its business.

Consolidated net sales of $919 million, an increase of 0.8% compared to the prior year;

 

Consolidated comparable sales increased 5.7%;

 

Global e-commerce sales increased 9% to $87 million, representing 9.5% of net sales;

Fiscal 2023 Second Quarter Operating Results

 

Second quarter consolidated net sales were $918.7 million, an increase of 0.8% compared to the prior year. The Company was operating 378 fewer stores at the end of the quarter compared to the prior year. Foreign currency translation had an unfavorable impact of 80 basis points on consolidated net sales for the quarter. At constant currency, global e-commerce sales increased 9% compared to the prior year to $87 million or 9.5% of consolidated net sales for the quarter.

 

Consolidated comparable sales increased 5.7%, driven primarily by strong sales recapture rates from the Company’s recent store optimization efforts and the lapping of the prior year’s impact from Omicron, supply chain challenges and the onset of inflationary pressures.

 

Consolidated gross profit for the second quarter was $468.3 million compared to $465.3 million in the prior year, an increase of 0.6%. Consolidated GAAP gross margin was 51.0%, a decrease of 10 basis points compared to 51.1% in the prior year. Adjusted Gross Margin, which excludes the true-up of a non-cash inventory write-down in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 related to the Company’s previously announced distribution center consolidation and store optimization plan, as well as the write-down of COVID-19 related personal-protective equipment inventory in the second quarter of fiscal 2022, was 50.7%, a decrease of 70 basis points compared to 51.4% in the prior year. Higher product margin at Sally Beauty, driven by pricing leverage and higher owned brand penetration, was more than offset by lower product margin at Beauty Systems Group resulting from an unfavorable sales mix shift between the segment’s stores and expanded Regis partnership, as well as a shift in some distribution center costs from selling, general and administrative expenses into gross margin.

 

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $389.7 million, an increase of $10.8 million compared to $378.9 million in the prior year. Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses, excluding COVID-19 related net expenses and other adjustments, were $389.7 million, an increase of $11.7 million compared to $378.0 million in the prior year. The increase was driven primarily by higher labor, accrued bonus, and advertising costs, partially offset by the savings from the Company’s previously announced distribution center consolidation and store optimization plan. As a percentage of sales, Adjusted SG&A expenses were 42.4% compared to 41.5% in the prior year.  

 

GAAP operating earnings and operating margin in the second quarter were $71.4 million and 7.8%, compared to $86.5 million and 9.5%, in the prior year. Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin, excluding the Company’s restructuring efforts, COVID-19 related net expenses and other adjustments, were $76.3 million and 8.3%, compared to $90.2 million and 9.9%, in the prior year.

 

GAAP net earnings in the second quarter were $40.9 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared to GAAP net earnings of $46.8 million, or $0.42 per diluted share in the prior year. Adjusted Net Earnings, excluding the Company’s restructuring efforts, COVID-19 related net expenses and other adjustments, were $44.6 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, compared to Adjusted Net Earnings of $51.9 million, or $0.47 per diluted share in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA in the second quarter was $105.2 million, a decrease of 9.5% compared to the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 11.5%, a decrease of 130 basis points compared to the prior year.

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

 

As of March 31, 2023, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $62 million and an outstanding balance of $34 million under its asset-based revolving line of credit. At the end of the quarter, inventory was $1.02 billion, up 6.3% versus a year ago, driven primarily by higher product costs, improved in-stock levels and timing of inventory receipts. Second quarter cash flow from operations was $24.7 million. Capital expenditures in the quarter totaled $17.2 million.

 

The Company ended the quarter with a net debt leverage ratio of 2.2x.

 

On February 28, 2023, the Company completed the refinancing of its $406 million term loan with a new term loan that extends the maturity from July 2024 to February 2030. The new term loan has an aggregate principal amount of $400 million and bears interest at a floating rate equal to 1-month term SOFR (secured overnight financing rate) plus a spread of 250 basis points. Subsequent to the end of the second quarter, the Company entered into a 3-year interest rate swap agreement on April 28, 2023, which swaps a notional amount of $200 million of the new term loan from a floating term SOFR rate to a fixed rate of 3.705%.

 

 

Fiscal 2023 Second Quarter Segment Results

 

Sally Beauty Supply

 

Segment net sales were $530.2 million in the quarter, an increase of 0.8% compared to the prior year. The segment operated 356 fewer stores at the end of the quarter compared to the prior year and had an unfavorable impact of 90 basis points from foreign currency translation on reported sales. At constant currency, segment e-commerce sales increased 7% to $34 million or 6.4% of segment net sales for the quarter.

 

Segment comparable sales increased 9.1% in the second quarter, driven primarily by strong sales recapture rates from the Company’s recent store optimization efforts and the lapping of the prior year’s impact from Omicron, supply chain challenges and the onset of inflationary pressures. The Sally Beauty businesses in the U.S. and Canada represented 79% of segment net sales for the quarter and had a comparable sales increase of 9.8%.

 

At the end of the quarter, net store count was 3,143.

 

GAAP gross margin increased by 100 basis points to 59.8% compared to the prior year. The increase was primarily driven by higher product margin from pricing leverage and higher owned brand penetration, and the favorable true-up of a non-cash inventory write-down in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 related to the Company’s previously announced distribution center consolidation and store optimization plan.

 

GAAP operating earnings were $92.1 million compared to $80.9 million in the prior year, representing an increase of 13.8%. GAAP operating margin increased to 17.4% compared to 15.4% in the prior year.

 

Beauty Systems Group

 

Segment net sales were $388.5 million in the quarter, an increase of 0.7% compared to the prior year. The segment operated 22 fewer stores at the end of the quarter compared to the prior year and had an unfavorable impact of 50 basis points on reported sales from foreign currency translation. At constant currency, segment e-commerce sales increased 11% to $53 million or 13.7% of segment net sales for the quarter.

 


 

 

Segment comparable sales increased 1.3% in the second quarter, primarily reflecting the lapping of the prior year’s impact from supply chain challenges and Omicron, partially offset by continued inflationary pressures resulting in stylists buying closer to need.

 

At the end of the quarter, net store count was 1,341.

 

GAAP gross margin decreased 160 basis points to 38.9% in the quarter compared to the prior year, driven primarily by lower product margin from an unfavorable sales mix shift between the segment’s stores and expanded Regis partnership, as well as a shift in some distribution center costs from selling, general and administrative expenses into gross margin.

 

GAAP operating earnings were $37.3 million in the quarter, a decrease of 19.0% compared to $46.0 million in the prior year. GAAP operating margin in the quarter was 9.6% compared to 11.9% in the prior year.

 

At the end of the quarter, there were 675 distributor sales consultants compared to 712 in the prior year.

 

 

Fiscal Year 2023 Guidance

 

The Company is maintaining the following guidance for full fiscal year 2023:

 

 

Comparable sales, notwithstanding a notable change in consumer behavior, are expected to increase by low single digits compared to the prior year, driven by growth in key categories, sales transfer from store closures related to the Company’s store optimization efforts, the expanded Regis distribution and new strategic initiatives;

 

Net sales are expected to decline by low-single digits compared to the prior year, reflecting the unfavorable impact due to store closures from the Company’s store optimization efforts, net of expected sales recapture rates, and the anticipated unfavorable impact from foreign exchange headwinds;

 

Gross margin is expected to remain above 50%; and

 

Adjusted Operating Margin is expected to be in the range of 8.5% and 9.5%, inclusive of investment in store labor as the Company focuses on elevating the expertise of its associates to drive growth in the coming years.

 

 

*

The Company does not provide a reconciliation for forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures where it is unable to provide a meaningful or accurate calculation or estimation of reconciling items and the information is not available without unreasonable effort. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the occurrence and the financial impact of various items that have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information. Forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures provided without the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures may vary materially from the corresponding GAAP financial measures.

Any forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties related to COVID-19, and its continuing impact on the economy and those described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2022.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

This news release and the schedules hereto include the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures: (1) Adjusted Gross Margin; (2) Adjusted

 


 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses; (3) Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA Margin; (4) Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin; (5) Adjusted Net Earnings; (6) Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share; and (7) Operating Free Cash Flow. We have provided definitions below for these non-GAAP financial measures and have provided tables in the schedules hereto to reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Adjusted Gross Margin – We define the measure Adjusted Gross Margin as GAAP gross margin excluding the true-up of the inventory non-cash write-down and the write-down of COVID-19 related personal-protective equipment inventory for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses – We define the measure Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses as GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses excluding COVID-19 net expenses and other adjustments for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA Margin – We define the measure Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes, share-based compensation, costs related to the Company’s restructuring plans, COVID-19 related net expenses and other adjustments for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

 

Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin – Adjusted operating earnings are GAAP operating earnings that exclude costs related to the Company’s restructuring plans, net expenses related to COVID-19 and other adjustments for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Margin is Adjusted Operating Earnings as a percentage of net sales.

 

Adjusted Net Earnings – Adjusted net earnings is GAAP net earnings that exclude tax-effected costs related to the Company’s restructuring plans, tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19, and tax-effected other adjustments for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share – Adjusted diluted net earnings per share is GAAP diluted earnings per share that exclude tax-effected costs related to the Company’s restructuring plans, tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19, and tax-effected other adjustments for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

 

Operating Free Cash Flow – We define the measure Operating Free Cash Flow as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less payments for capital expenditures (net).  We believe Operating Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure that provides useful information to investors about the amount of cash generated from operations after taking into account payments for capital expenditures (net).

 

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable information regarding our earnings and business trends by excluding specific items that we believe are not indicative of the ongoing operating

 


 

results of our businesses; providing a useful way for investors to make a comparison of our performance over time and against other companies in our industry.

 

We have provided these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information to our GAAP financial measures and believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional meaningful financial information regarding our operating performance and cash flows. Our management and Board of Directors also use these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to evaluate our businesses and the performance of management, including the determination of performance-based compensation, to make operating and strategic decisions, and to allocate financial resources. We believe that these non-GAAP measures also provide meaningful information for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance.  These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results.  Furthermore, the non-GAAP measures presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.
