Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 totaled $549.8 million, a 9.7% increase compared with net sales of $501.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in net sales was the result of new store unit growth in addition to a comparable store sales increase of 3.0%.

Gross profit increased 12.8% to $206.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from $183.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Gross margin increased 110 basis points to 37.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from 36.5% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in gross margin in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 is primarily due to lower supply chain costs.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 10.0% to $131.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from $119.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the gains from the insurance settlements of $0.9 million and $0.1 million in the fourth quarters of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, adjusted SG&A increased 10.7% to $131.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from $119.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. This increase was primarily driven by higher selling expenses associated with our new store unit growth, as well as investments in wages and higher utility costs. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general, and administrative expenses, exclusive of the insurance settlement gains, increased 20 basis points to 24.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from 23.8% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Operating income totaled $67.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, a 17.8% increase from operating income of $57.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Excluding the gains from the insurance settlements, adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾ increased 16.5% to $66.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from $57.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾ increased 70 basis points to 12.1% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from 11.4% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021 primarily due to the increase in gross margin driven by lower supply chain costs and new store unit growth.

Net income increased 18.7% to $53.1 million, or $0.85 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with net income of $44.7 million, or $0.71 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Diluted earnings per share in the fourth quarters of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 included a benefit of $0.00 and $0.01, respectively, due to excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾, which excludes these benefits and the after-tax gains from the insurance settlements, increased 19.5% to $52.4 million, or $0.84 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from $43.9 million, or $0.69 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Adjusted EBITDA⁽¹⁾ totaled $77.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, increasing 16.8% from $66.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ increased 80 basis points to 14.0% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 from 13.2% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense and the gains from the insurance settlements.

Fiscal 2022 Results

Net sales totaled $1.827 billion in fiscal 2022, an increase of 4.2%, compared with net sales of $1.753 billion in fiscal 2021. The increase in net sales was the result of new store unit growth, partially offset by the decline in comparable store sales of 3.0% compared to prior year.

Gross profit decreased 3.7% to $656.1 million in fiscal 2022 from $681.2 million in fiscal 2021. Gross margin decreased 300 basis points to 35.9% in fiscal 2022 from 38.9% in fiscal 2021. The decrease in gross margin in fiscal 2022 is due to increased supply chain costs, primarily the result of higher import and trucking costs and, to a lesser extent, higher wage rates in the Company’s distribution centers.

Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 9.6% to $490.6 million in fiscal 2022 from $447.6 million in fiscal 2021. Excluding the gains from the insurance settlements of $0.9 million and $0.4 million in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, adjusted SG&A increased 9.7% to $491.5 million in fiscal 2022 from $448.0 million in fiscal 2021. This increase was primarily driven by higher selling expenses associated with our new store unit growth, as well as investments in wages and higher utility costs, partially offset by tight expense controls throughout the organization. As a percentage of net sales, selling, general, and administrative expenses, exclusive of the insurance settlement gains, increased 130 basis points to 26.9% in fiscal 2022 from 25.6% in fiscal 2021.

Operating income totaled $130.9 million in fiscal 2022, a 36.0% decrease from operating income of $204.6 million in fiscal 2021. Adjusted operating income⁽¹⁾, which excludes gains from insurance settlements of $0.9 million and $0.4 million in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, decreased 36.3% to $130.0 million in fiscal 2022 compared with $204.2 million in fiscal 2021. Adjusted operating margin⁽¹⁾ decreased 450 basis points to 7.1% in fiscal 2022 from 11.6% in fiscal 2021 primarily as a result of the decrease in gross margin and the de-leverage of fixed expenses resulting from the decrease in comparable store sales.

Net income decreased 34.7% to $102.8 million, or $1.64 per diluted share, in fiscal 2022 from $157.5 million, or $2.43 per diluted share, in fiscal 2021. Diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021 included a benefit of $0.00 and $0.06, respectively, due to excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. Adjusted net income⁽¹⁾, which excludes these benefits and the after-tax gains from the insurance settlements, decreased 33.4% to $101.8 million, or $1.62 per diluted share, in fiscal 2022 from $152.9 million, or $2.36 per diluted share, in fiscal 2021.  

Adjusted EBITDA ⁽¹⁾ totaled $168.9 million in fiscal 2022, a 28.8% decrease from $237.3 million in fiscal 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin⁽¹⁾ decreased 430 basis points to 9.2% in fiscal 2022 from 13.5% in fiscal 2021.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

The Company's cash and cash equivalents and short-term investments were $270.8 million as of the end of fiscal 2022 compared with cash and cash equivalents of $247.0 million as of the end of fiscal 2021. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under its $100 million revolving credit facility and $87.0 million of availability under the facility as of the end of fiscal 2022. The Company ended the period with total borrowings, consisting solely of finance lease obligations, of $1.3 million.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company invested $11.9 million of cash to repurchase 245,328 shares of its common stock, resulting in $41.8 million invested in fiscal 2022.

Inventories as of the end of fiscal 2022 increased 0.7% to $470.5 million compared with $467.3 million as of the end of fiscal 2021, driven by new store unit growth partially offset by the impact of lower freight costs and a normalization of lead times on our in-transit inventory.  

Capital expenditures in fiscal 2022, primarily for new and existing stores and the expansion of the Company’s distribution center in York, PA, totaled $51.7 million compared with $35.0 million in fiscal 2021.

Fiscal 2023 Outlook   

The Company estimates the following for the 53-week fiscal year ending February 3, 2024:

For full-year fiscal 2023:

• Total net sales of $2.036 billion to $2.058 billion;
• Comparable store sales increase ranging from 1.0% to 2.0%;
• The opening of 45 new stores, less 1 closure;
• Full year gross margin in the range of 39.1% to 39.3%;
• Operating income of $205 million to $213 million;
• Adjusted net income⁽²⁾ of $156 million to $163 million and adjusted earnings per share⁽²⁾ of $2.49 to $2.58, both of which exclude excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation;
• An annual effective tax rate of 25%, which excludes excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation;
• Diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 63 million; and
• Capital expenditures of $125 million, primarily for the construction of our fourth distribution center and the expansion of the Company’s York, PA distribution center, as well as new stores, store-level initiatives, and IT projects.
  

⁽²⁾ The guidance ranges as provided for adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude the excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation as the Company cannot predict such estimates without unreasonable effort.

Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures

(Dollars in thousands)

(Unaudited)

The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. We have included the non-GAAP measures of adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share in this press release as these are key measures used by our management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating performance and the effectiveness of our business strategies, make budgeting decisions, and evaluate compensation decisions. Management believes it is useful to investors and analysts to evaluate these non-GAAP measures on the same basis as management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating results. We believe that excluding items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude from net income and net income per diluted share, enhances the comparability of our results and provides a better baseline for analyzing trends in our business.

The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to non-GAAP financial measures: operating income to adjusted operating income, net income to adjusted net income, net income per diluted share to adjusted net income per diluted share, and net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
        
Adjusted operating income excludes gains associated with insurance settlements. Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude the after-tax gain from the insurance settlements and excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, which may not occur with the same frequency or magnitude in future periods. We define EBITDA as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense as well as the aforementioned gains from insurance settlements.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative to or substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company's financial position, results of operations and cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company's actual financial condition and performance. The methods used by the Company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.
