Fiscal 2021 Fourth Quarter Operating Results

Fourth quarter consolidated net sales were $990.3 million, an increase of 3.4% compared to the prior year, with a same store sales increase of 2.1%. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact of approximately 90 basis points on reported sales.

Consolidated gross profit for the fourth quarter was $501.0 million compared to $489.1 million in the prior year, an increase of 2.4%. Consolidated gross margin was 50.6%, a decrease of 50 basis points compared to 51.1% in the prior year, primarily reflecting a higher mix of Beauty Systems Group sales and a lower gross margin at Beauty Systems Group.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $386.5 million, up $19.6 million compared to the prior year, driven primarily by increased labor and advertising costs, as previously planned. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 39.0% compared to 38.3% in the prior year.

Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin, excluding the Company’s previously announced restructuring efforts and COVID-19 related income in both years, were $115.8 million and 11.7%, compared to $120.3 million and 12.6%, in the prior year.

GAAP net earnings in the fourth quarter were $68.1 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $70.2 million, or $0.62 per diluted share in the prior year.

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 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 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 previously announced restructuring plans, COVID-19 related net expenses, costs related to the non-cash write down of inventory, and impairment charges related to long-lived assets and operating lease assets not included in restructuring 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 previously announced restructuring plans and net expenses related to COVID-19 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 previously announced restructuring plans and tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19 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 previously announced restructuring plans and tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19 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.

(1) For fiscal year 2021, restructuring represents expenses incurred primarily in connection with Project Surge and the Transformation Plan, including the write-down of inventory of $1.4 million in cost of products sold. For fiscal year 2020, restructuring represents expenses incurred primarily in connection with Project Surge and the Transformation Plan.
 
(2) For fiscal year 2021, COVID-19 expenses primarily represents the write-down of personal-protective equipment inventory of $7.0 million in cost of products sold and donation expense related to the personal-protective equipment inventory of $33.0 million in selling, general, and administrative expenses, partially offset by wage and rent subsidies provided by the Canadian government of $3.4 million. For fiscal year 2020, COVID-19 primarily represents costs associated with disaster pay and furloughed employees in response to the coronavirus pandemic. These cost were partially offset by an employee retention payroll tax credit provided by the U.S. Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act, or CARES Act, and the Canada Emergency Wage Subsidy provided by the Canadian government.
 
(3) The provision for income taxes was calculated using the applicable tax rates for each country upon the recognition of expenses or gains, while excluding the tax benefits for countries where the tax benefit is not currently deemed probable of being realized.

For the purpose of calculating our same store sales metrics, we compare the current period sales for stores open for 14 months or longer as of the last day of a month with the sales for these stores for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Our same store sales are calculated in constant U.S. dollars and include e-commerce sales, but do not generally include the sales from stores relocated until 14 months after the relocation. The sales from stores acquired are excluded from our same store sales calculation until 14 months after the acquisition.
