ALLOY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
|
|
1. |
Business and Financial Statement Presentation |
Alloy, Inc. (Alloy or the Company) is a
media, marketing services, retail and direct marketing company
primarily targeting Generation Y, the approximately
60 million boys and girls in the United States between the
ages of 10 and 24. Alloys business is comprised of two
distinct divisions: Alloy Media + Marketing and Alloy
Merchandising Group (AMG). These divisions integrate
direct mail catalogs, retail stores, print media, display media
boards, websites, on-campus marketing programs and promotional
events, and feature a portfolio of brands that are well known
among Generation Y consumers and advertisers. Alloy reaches a
significant portion of Generation Y consumers through its
various media assets, marketing service programs, direct
marketing activities, and retail stores. As a result, Alloy is
able to offer advertisers targeted access to the youth market.
Additionally, Alloys assets have enabled it to build a
comprehensive database that includes information about
approximately 32 million Generation Y consumers.
Alloy generates revenue from three principal sources
direct marketing, retail stores, and sponsorship and other
activities. From its catalogs and websites, Alloy sells products
in key Generation Y spending categories, including apparel,
action sports equipment, and accessories directly to the youth
market. Alloys retail stores segment derives revenue
primarily from the sale of apparel, accessories and home
furnishings to consumers. Alloy generates sponsorship and other
activities revenues largely from traditional, blue chip
advertisers that seek highly targeted, measurable and effective
marketing programs to reach Generation Y. Advertisers can reach
Generation Y through integrated marketing programs that include
Alloys catalogs, books, websites, and display media
boards, as well as through promotional events, product sampling,
college and high school newspaper advertising, customer
acquisition programs and other marketing services that Alloy
provides. As described in Note 16, Alloys Board of
Directors has approved a plan to spin off the AMG division to
Alloy shareholders.
The accompanying unaudited interim consolidated financial
statements have been prepared by Alloy. In the opinion of
management, all adjustments (which include only normal recurring
adjustments) necessary to present fairly the financial position,
results of operations, comprehensive losses and cash flows at
April 30, 2005 and for all periods presented have been
made. The results of operations for the periods ended
April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2004 are not necessarily
indicative of the operating results for a full fiscal year.
Certain information and footnote disclosures prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles
(GAAP) and normally included in the financial
statements have been condensed or omitted. Certain balances in
the prior year have been reclassified to conform to the
presentation adopted in the current year.
It is suggested that these financial statements and accompanying
notes (the Notes) be read in conjunction with the
consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes related
to Alloys fiscal year ended January 31, 2005
(fiscal 2004) included in Alloys Annual Report
on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31,
2005 which was filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission
(SEC) on April 18, 2005.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements |
In November 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 151,
Inventory Costs: an amendment of ARB No. 43,
Chapter 4 (SFAS No. 151),
to clarify the accounting for abnormal amounts of idle facility
expense, freight, handling costs and wasted material.
SFAS No. 151 is effective for inventory costs incurred
during fiscal years beginning after June 15, 2005. The
Company does not believe the provisions of
SFAS No. 151, when applied, will have a material
impact on its financial position or results of operations.
In December 2004, the FASB issued SFAS No. 123
(revised 2004), Share-Based Payment
(SFAS No. 123(R)), which is a revision
of SFAS No. 123. SFAS No. 123(R) supersedes
APB Opinion No. 25, Accounting for Stock Issued to
Employees and amends SFAS No. 95, Statement of
Cash Flows. Generally, the approach in
SFAS No. 123(R) is similar to the approach described
in SFAS No. 123.
8
ALLOY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
However, SFAS No. 123(R) requires all share-based
payments to employees, including grants of employee stock
options, to be recognized in the income statement based on their
fair values. Pro forma disclosure is no longer an alternative.
The new standard will be effective for the Company in the first
annual reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS 123(R) will
have on its consolidated financial statements and will adopt
such standard as required.
In March 2005, the SEC issued Staff Accounting
Bulletin No. 107, Share-Based Payment
(SAB No. 107). SAB No. 107
provides guidance regarding the interaction between
SFAS No. 123(R) and certain SEC rules and regulations,
including guidance related to valuation methods; the
classification of compensation expense; non-GAAP financial
measures; the accounting for income tax effects of share-based
payment arrangements; disclosures in Managements
Discussion and Analysis subsequent to adoption of
SFAS No. 123(R); and modifications of options prior to
the adoption of SFAS No. 123(R). The Company is
currently assessing the guidance in SAB No. 107 as
part of its evaluation of the adoption of
SFAS No. 123(R).

Discontinued Operations Dans Competition |
On May 31, 2005, Alloy entered into an Asset Purchase
Agreement (the Agreement) pursuant to which
Dans Competition, LLC (Dans Comp), an
indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of Alloy, agreed to sell
substantially all of its assets and liabilities to XP Innovation
LLC (XP), a limited liability company formed and
owned by the existing management of Dans Comp, none of
whom is an executive officer or director of Alloy, in
consideration of a cash payment of $13.0 million at
closing, subject to adjustments for changes in working capital.
Post-closing, the name Dans Competition, LLC was changed
to DC Restructuring, LLC.
Dans Comp was part of the AMG division of Alloy and
revenue from Dans Comp was included in Alloys direct
marketing business segment. Dans catalog, which targets
Generation Y boys, focuses on the BMX bike market and offers BMX
bikes, parts and safety equipment, as well as related apparel,
accessories and footwear. The total anticipated loss on the
disposition of the related net assets, which has been accounted
for in our first fiscal quarter of 2005, is approximately
$11.5 million. The transaction closed on June 1, 2005.
As a result of the Agreement, all historical results of
operations of Dans Comp are presented as discontinued
operations. The discontinued operations generated revenue of
$4.2 million and $4.0 million and a net loss of
approximately $11.2 million and $171,000 for the three
months ended April 30, 2005 and April 30, 2004,
respectively.

Stock-Based Employee Compensation Cost |
The Company accounts for its stock option plans in accordance
with the provisions of Accounting Principles Board Opinion
No. 25 (APB No. 25), Accounting for
Stock Issued to Employees, as permitted by Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards No. 123
(SFAS 123) Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation. As such, compensation expense would be
recorded on the date of grant only if the then current market
price of the underlying stock exceeded the exercise price. The
Company discloses the pro forma effect on net loss and earnings
per share as required by SFAS No. 123 (as amended by
Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 148
(SFAS 148) Accounting for Stock-Based
Compensation Transition and Disclosure)
recognizing as expense over the vesting period the fair value of
all stock-based awards on the date of grant.
Shares issued under the employee stock purchase plan are
considered noncompensatory for the determination of compensation
expense under APB No. 25, but the fair value of the benefit
related to acquiring such shares at a discount is included as
compensation expense in the pro forma disclosures required by
SFAS No. 123.
10
ALLOY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
The following table reflects the effect on net loss and loss per
share attributable to common stockholders if the Company had
applied the fair value recognition provisions of
SFAS No. 123 to stock-based employee compensation.
These pro forma effects may not be representative of future
amounts since the estimated fair value of stock options on the
date of grant is amortized to expense over the vesting period
and additional options may be granted in future years.

In December 2004, the Financial Accounting Standards Board
issued SFAS 123(R). SFAS 123(R) requires companies to
expense the value of employee stock options and similar awards.
SFAS 123(R) will be effective for the first annual
reporting period beginning after June 15, 2005 and will
apply to all outstanding and unvested share-based payments at
the time of adoption. The Company is currently evaluating the
impact SFAS 123(R) will have on its consolidated financial
statements and will adopt such standard as required.

$9.2 million and $3.6 million, respectively, of
unbilled receivables.

Basic loss per share is computed as net loss divided by the
weighted-average number of basic common shares outstanding for
the period. Diluted earnings per share reflects the potential
dilution that could occur from common shares issuable through
stock-based compensation including stock options, restricted
stock and stock warrants, the conversion of Series A and
Series B Convertible Preferred Stock, the conversion of
convertible long-term debt, the conversion of warrants issued in
connection with our financings and acquisitions, and
contingently issuable common stock pursuant to acquisitions. The
following table sets forth the computation of the number of

The total assets reported in the direct marketing segment
include the discontinued operations of Dans Comp. |
During fiscal 2002, the Company made the strategic decision to
outsource substantially all of its fulfillment activities for
its CCS unit to New Roads, Inc. The Company determined that it
would not be able to exit or sublease its existing fulfillment
facilities and as a result, recognized a restructuring charge of
$2.6 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2002,
representing the future contractual lease payments and the
write-off of related leasehold improvements. As of
April 30, 2005, a $270,000 accrual remains to cover future
contractual lease payments.
As part of the dELiA*s acquisition, which was completed during
the third quarter of fiscal 2003, Alloy recorded a
$6.5 million restructuring liability. Alloy was
contractually obligated to pay certain termination costs to
three executives of dELiA*s. Management estimated liabilities
related to the net present value of these termination costs to
be approximately $2.7 million. In addition, management
estimated $3.8 million of store exit and lease costs and
severance related to the closing of up to seventeen dELiA*s
retail stores. During the third quarter of fiscal 2004,
primarily as a result of decreasing the number of store
closings, Alloy recorded an approximate $2.6 million
decrease to dELiA*s restructuring liability. At April 30,
2005, a $1.1 million accrual remains to cover future
contractual obligations.

ALLOY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
On January 29, 2003, Alloy adopted a stock repurchase
program authorizing the repurchase of up to $10.0 million
of its common stock from time to time in the open market at
prevailing market prices or in privately negotiated
transactions. Alloy has repurchased 600,000 shares for
approximately $3.0 million under this plan through
April 30, 2005. All 600,000 shares were repurchased
during the first quarter of fiscal 2003.
In fiscal 2004, Alloys Board of Directors authorized the
issuance of 173,000 shares of Common Stock as restricted
stock under the Companys Amended and Restated 1997
Employee, Director and Consultant Stock Option and Stock
Incentive Plan (the 1997 Plan). During the first
quarter of fiscal 2005, no additional shares of Common Stock
were issued as restricted stock. The shares issued pursuant to
the 1997 Plan are subject to restrictions on transfer and
certain other conditions. During the restriction period, plan
participants are entitled to vote and receive dividends on such
shares. Upon authorization of the shares, deferred compensation
expense equivalent to the market value of the shares on the
respective dates of grant is charged to stockholders
equity and is then amortized to compensation expense over the
vesting periods.
The compensation expense amortized with respect to the
restricted shares during the three months ended April 30,
2005 and April 30, 2004 was approximately $55,000 and
$351,000, respectively.
|
|
|
Convertible Senior Debentures |
In August 2003, Alloy completed the issuance of
$69.3 million of 20-Year Convertible Senior Debentures due
August 1, 2023 (the Debentures) in the
Rule 144A private placement market. The Debentures have an
annual coupon rate of 5.375%, payable in cash semi-annually. The
Debentures are convertible prior to maturity, under certain
circumstances, unless previously redeemed, at the option of the
holders into shares of Alloys Common Stock at a conversion
price of approximately $8.375 per share, subject to certain
adjustments. The Debentures are Alloys general unsecured
obligations and will be equal in right of payment to its
existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness; and are
senior in right of payment to all of its future subordinated
debt. Alloy may not redeem the Debentures until August 1,
2008. Alloy used a significant portion of the net proceeds from
this offering for the acquisition of dELiA*s and used the
remaining portion for other acquisitions, working capital,
capital expenditures and general corporate purposes.
On February 17, 2004, Alloy approved the repurchase of up
to $5.0 million aggregate principal amount of the
Debentures. As of June 9, 2005, none of the Debentures have
been repurchased.
In fiscal 1999, dELiA*s entered into a mortgage loan agreement
related to the purchase of a distribution facility in Hanover,
Pennsylvania. On April 19, 2004, dELiA*s entered into a
Mortgage Note Modification Agreement (the
Modification Agreement) extending the term of the
Mortgage Note for five years with a fifteen-year amortization
schedule and an Amendment to Construction Loan Agreement (the
Amended Loan Agreement). The modified loan bears
interest at LIBOR plus 225 basis points. Alloy guaranteed
the modified loan and is subject to a quarterly financial
covenant to maintain a funds flow coverage ratio. On
September 3, 2004, the Amended Loan Agreement was amended
to modify the quarterly financial covenant. Alloy is in
compliance with the modified covenant for the quarter ended
April 30, 2005. As of April 30, 2005, the current and
long-term mortgage note payable balance was approximately
$170,000 and $2.6 million, respectively.

ALLOY, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL
STATEMENTS (Continued)
At the time of Alloys acquisition of dELiA*s, in September
2003, dELiA*s had in place a credit agreement with Wells Fargo
Retail Finance, LLC (the Wells Fargo Credit
Agreement), dated September 24, 2001. On
October 14, 2004, dELiA*s entered into an Amended Loan
Agreement with Wells Fargo, as lead borrower for Alloy
Merchandise, LLC; Skate Direct, LLC; dELiA*s Operating Company;
and dELiA*s Retail Company (together with dELiA*s, the
Borrowers), all indirect wholly owned subsidiaries
of the Company. The Loan Agreement amended and restated the
Wells Fargo Credit Agreement, by, among other things,
(i) adding Alloy Merchandise, LLC and Skate Direct, LLC as
borrowers under the Loan Agreement; (ii) amending certain
of the financial covenants; and (iii) providing that the
Borrowers may increase the credit limit under the Loan Agreement
in two steps from an initial $20 million up to a maximum of
$40 million subject to the satisfaction of certain
conditions.
The Loan Agreement consists of a revolving line of credit that
permits the Borrowers to currently borrow up to
$20 million. The credit line is secured by the assets of
the Borrowers and borrowing availability fluctuates depending on
the Borrowers levels of inventory and certain receivables.
The Loan Agreement contains a financial performance covenant
relating to a limitation on the Borrowers capital
expenditures. At the Borrowers option, borrowings under
this amended and restated facility bear interest at Wells Fargo
Banks prime rate or at LIBOR plus 225 basis points. A
fee of 0.250% per year is assessed monthly on the unused
portion of the line of credit as defined in the Loan Agreement.
The amended and restated facility matures in October 2007. As of
April 30, 2005 there were no outstanding balances under the
Loan Agreement.
In a related agreement, Alloy entered into a make
whole agreement with Wells Fargo, pursuant to which Alloy
agreed, among other things, to ensure that the Excess
Availability of the Borrowers, which is defined as availability
under the Loan Agreement less all then past due obligations of
the Borrowers, including accounts payable which are beyond
customary trade terms extended to the Borrowers and rent
obligations of the Borrowers which are beyond applicable grace
periods, is at all times greater than or equal to
$2.5 million. As of April 30, 2005, approximately
$4.4 million of letters of credit were outstanding under
the Wells Fargo Credit Agreement and the unused available credit
was $6.9 million.
Alloy has standby letters of credit with JP Morgan Chase Bank
for the purposes of securing a lease transaction relating to
computer equipment, securing an operating lease that Alloy
maintains and as collateral for credit that certain vendors
extend to Alloys On Campus Marketing business. As of
April 30, 2005, the outstanding letters of credit totaled
approximately $1.8 million.

MerchCo will include the dELiA*s, Alloy and CCS brands and will
sell apparel, accessories, footwear, room furnishings and action
sports equipment directly to the youth market through catalogs,
websites and retail stores. MerchCo will be formally named in
connection with the spin-off. After the spin-off, Alloy will
consist of its media and marketing services businesses which
will continue to provide services under the Alloy Media +
Marketing banner. The two companies will be independent and will
have separate public ownership, boards of directors and
management.
In connection with the spin-off, MerchCo will also proceed with
a rights offering to purchase its common stock. In April 2005,
Alloy entered into a letter agreement with its largest
shareholder, MLF Investments, LLC (MLF Investments),
which is controlled by Matthew L. Feshbach, one of Alloys
directors. Pursuant to this agreement, MLF Investments agreed to
backstop a $20 million rights offering to purchase MerchCo
common stock at an exercise price that correlates to a
$175 million pre-money MerchCo valuation (the
Exercise Price). The funds will be used primarily
for additions to MerchCos retail store base and for
general working capital purposes. Pursuant to the rights
offering, all persons who hold shares of Alloys common
stock as of a yet to be determined record date will receive at
no cost rights to purchase a defined number of shares of MerchCo
common stock at the Exercise Price.
The spin-off is to be accomplished through a special dividend of
MerchCo common stock to be distributed to Alloy stockholders of
record as of a yet to be determined record date. Following the
spin-off, it is expected that both Alloy and MerchCo will trade
on the Nasdaq market with Alloy continuing to trade under the
symbol ALOY and MerchCo trading under a yet to be
determined symbol. Final terms of the transactions have not yet
been set and will be announced at a later date. Following
completion of the spin-off, Matthew Diamond will continue to
serve as CEO of Alloy and Robert Bernard is to serve as CEO of
MerchCo.
Alloy anticipates that it will incur spin-off related expenses
associated with establishing MerchCo as an independent company,
which will be recorded in each quarter as incurred.
Cumulatively, these expenses are expected to be in the
$2.5 million to $3.5 million range. Alloy expects to
disclose these transitional operating expenses in its quarterly
results. A registration statement relating to the underlying
securities of MerchCo issued in connection with the spin-off and
the rights offering will be filed with the SEC.

Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations. |
The following discussion of our financial condition and results
of operations should be read in conjunction with the Financial
Statements and the related Notes included elsewhere in this
report on Form 10-Q. Descriptions of all documents
incorporated by reference herein or included as exhibits hereto
are qualified in their entirety by reference to the full text of
such documents so incorporated or referenced. This discussion
contains forward-looking statements that involve risks and
uncertainties. Our actual results may differ materially from
those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a
result of various factors, including, but not limited to, those
under Forward-Looking Statements and elsewhere in
this report.
Executive Summary
We are a media, marketing services, direct marketing and retail
company primarily targeting Generation Y, the approximately
60 million boys and girls in the United States between the
ages of 10 and 24. Our business is currently comprised of two
distinct divisions: Alloy Merchandising Group (AMG)
and Alloy Media + Marketing. AMG consists of the direct
marketing and retail stores reporting segments. Alloy Media +
Marketing consists of the sponsorship and other activities
reporting segment. Our direct marketing segment derives revenues
from sales of merchandise to consumers through our catalogs and
websites. Our retail stores segment derives revenue primarily
from the sale, through dELiA*s retail and outlet stores, of
merchandise to consumers. Our sponsorship and other activities
segment derives revenue largely from traditional blue chip
advertisers that seek to market to Generation Y through our
media assets and marketing services including but not limited to
our print publications, websites, and display media boards, as
well as through promotional events, product sampling, customer
acquisition programs and other marketing programs.
On May 26, 2005, our Board of Directors approved the plan
to pursue a spin-off to our shareholders of our AMG division. In
the spin-off, Alloy shareholders will receive 100 percent
of the common shares of a to be formed corporation to which
Alloy will transfer its retail and direct marketing
merchandising assets and associated liabilities
(MerchCo). Upon completion of the spin transaction,
MerchCo will proceed with the previously announced offering of
rights to Alloy shareholders, as of a to be determined record
date, to purchase up to $20 million newly issued shares of
MerchCo. The funds will be used primarily for additions to
MerchCos retail store base and for general working capital
purposes.
MerchCo will include the dELiA*s, Alloy and CCS brands and will
sell apparel, accessories, footwear, room furnishings and action
sports equipment directly to the youth market through catalogs,
websites and retail stores. MerchCo will be formally named in
connection with the spin-off. After the spin-off Alloy will
consist of its media and marketing services businesses which
will continue to provide services under the Alloy Media +
Marketing banner. The two companies will be independent and will
have separate public ownership, boards of directors and
management. Following completion of the spin-off, Matt Diamond
will continue to serve as CEO of Alloy and Robert Bernard is to
serve as CEO of MerchCo. We believe that the creation of two
distinct companies with focused management teams, clear
strategies and capital resources will result in long-term value
creation and improvements in the two companies results of
operations. Refer to Note 16 for further details.
Our loss from continuing operations was $4.7 million for
the first quarter of fiscal 2005 while our loss from continuing
operations in the first quarter of fiscal 2004 was
$9.1 million.

Alloy Merchandising Group |
With respect to our direct marketing and retail stores segments
(collectively referred to as Alloy Merchandising Group
(AMG)), much of our emphasis in 2004 was placed on
deriving synergies from the dELiA*s acquisition which we
completed in September of 2003. We closed seven dELiA*s retail
stores during fiscal 2004, and are now beginning to expand our
store count in a strategic manner. We plan to open ten new
dELiA*s retail stores during fiscal 2005, eight of which are
expected to open this summer during the all-important
back-to-school time period. This retail store expansion will
increase our total real estate square footage by approximately
20%. The design and merchandising of these new stores will more
closely reflect the brand image and direction currently seen in
the dELiA*s catalog and website.
18
During the third quarter of fiscal 2004, we began to realize
many of the synergies we expected to result from combining our
direct marketing operations with those of dELiA*s, leveraging
our combined scale, selling across our combined databases while
controlling overall catalog circulation, and consolidating
fulfillment operations in dELiA*s Hanover, Pennsylvania
warehouse and Westerville, Ohio contact center. We anticipate
that we will continue to increase these savings going forward.
During the first half of fiscal 2004, we ceased the operations
of our Girlfriends LA and Old Glory catalog businesses. On
June 1, 2005, we closed on a transaction involving the sale
of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of our
Dans Comp business to XP. We can now focus our efforts and
financial resources on our core dELiA*s and Alloy consumer
brands in the Generation Y girl market, and on our CCS brand in
the Generation Y boy market.
Alloy Entertainment (an Alloy Media + Marketing brand) continues
to be a premier content generator in the youth market producing
books, television series and feature films for major media
companies. Alloy Entertainment served as an executive producer
of the film The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants, based
on Ann Brashares bestselling novel. The film was released
by Warner Bros. in June 2005. Additionally, Alloy
Entertainment currently has several other projects in
development with motion picture studios.
We continue to review expansion of our sponsorship and other
businesses while also undertaking cost saving opportunities. In
an effort to improve earnings in our sponsorship business we
have been selectively eliminating positions and reducing other
fixed costs, while adding sales specialists in a number of our
business units to pursue regional and local sales opportunities.
As a result of the planned spin-off of the AMG Division, Alloy
Media + Marketing, comprised of the sponsorship and other
activities segment, will be Alloys sole remaining division.
Results of Operations
Our historical revenues and operating results have varied
significantly from quarter to quarter due to seasonal
fluctuations in consumer and client purchasing patterns. Sales
of apparel, accessories, footwear and action sports equipment
through our websites, catalogs and retail stores have been
higher in our third and fourth fiscal quarters, which contain
the key back-to-school and holiday selling seasons, than in our
first and second fiscal quarters. During this period, our
non-cash working capital requirements increase and are typically
funded by our cash balances and borrowings from our revolving
credit facility. We believe that advertising and sponsorship
sales follow a similar pattern, with higher revenues in the
third and fourth quarters (particularly the third quarter) as
marketers more aggressively attempt to reach our Generation Y
audience during these major spending seasons and capture student
interest at the outset of the school year.

Total Net Revenues. Total net revenues increased 4.6% to
$87.7 million in the three months ended April 30, 2005
from $83.9 million in the three months ended April 30,
2004.
Direct Marketing Revenues. Direct marketing revenues
increased 16.1% from $26.7 million in the three months
ended April 30, 2004 to $31.0 million in the three
months ended April 30, 2005. The increase in direct
marketing revenues for the first quarter of the fiscal year
ending January 31, 2006 (fiscal 2005) versus
the first quarter of the fiscal year ended January 31, 2005
(fiscal 2004) resulted primarily from an increase in
revenue related to our direct marketing titles dELiA*s, Alloy
and CCS.
Retail Stores Revenues. Retail stores revenues decreased
1.2% to $13.5 million for the three months ended
April 30, 2005 from $13.6 million for the three months
ended April 30, 2004. The decrease in retail store revenues
was primarily due to store closures. At April 30, 2004, we
owned and operated 59 retail stores; at April 30, 2005, we
owned and operated 55 retail stores.
Sponsorship and Other Revenues. Sponsorship and other
revenues for the first quarter of fiscal 2005 of
$43.3 million were virtually flat versus $43.6 million
in the first quarter of fiscal 2004.
Cost of revenues consists of the cost of the merchandise sold
plus the freight cost to deliver the merchandise to the
warehouse and retail stores, together with the direct costs
attributable to the sponsorship and advertising programs we
provide, and the marketing publications we produce. Our total
cost of revenues increased slightly from $44.5 million in
the three months ended April 30, 2004 to $44.9 million
in the three months ended April 30, 2005. The increase in
cost of revenues was due primarily to the increased cost of
goods sold related to the increased direct marketing revenue
during the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared with the
first quarter of fiscal 2004 partially offset by a decrease in
cost of sponsorship and other revenues.
Our gross profit as a percentage of total revenues increased
from 46.9% in the three months ended April 30, 2004 to
48.8% in the three months ended April 30, 2005. This
increase was due primarily to significant gross margin
improvement in our promotional marketing business within our
sponsorship and other segment, as well as gross margin
improvements in our retail stores and direct marketing segments.
Selling and Marketing. Selling and marketing expenses
consist primarily of our catalog production and mailing costs;
our call centers and fulfillment operations expenses; dELiA*s
retail store costs; freight costs to deliver goods to our
merchandise customers; compensation of our sales and marketing
personnel; marketing costs; and information technology expenses
related to the maintenance and marketing of our websites and
support for our advertising sales activities. These selling and
marketing expenses increased from $34.8 million in the
three months ended April 30, 2004 to $35.5 million in
the three months ended April 30, 2005 due primarily to the
increase in direct marketing segment revenue with selling and
marketing costs relating to that revenue rising in conjunction.
As a percentage of total revenues, our selling and marketing
expenses decreased from 41.4% in the first quarter of fiscal
2004 to 40.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 as operating
cost efficiency initiatives took effect.
General and Administrative. General and administrative
expenses consist primarily of salaries and related costs for our
executive, administrative, finance and management personnel, as
well as support services and professional service fees. These
expenses decreased from $11.6 million in the three months
ended April 30, 2004 to $9.7 million in the three
months ended April 30, 2005. The decrease in general and
administrative expenses resulted primarily from the cost savings
derived from integrating the operations of dELiA*s along with
lower professional services expenditures.
Our general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total
revenues decreased from 13.8% in the first quarter of fiscal
2004 to 11.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2005, due primarily
to cost savings derived from integrating the operations of
dELiA*s, which we acquired in September 2003, into our
merchandise
21
operations, and lower corporate overhead costs such as
technology, finance and legal, together with increased revenues.
Amortization of Intangible Assets. Amortization of
intangible assets was approximately $1.1 million in the
three months ended April 30, 2005 as compared with
$1.3 million in the three months ended April 30, 2004.
The decrease in amortization expense resulted from the
impairment of certain identified intangible assets during the
fourth quarter of fiscal 2004, offset partially by our
acquisition activities during the last twelve months and the
associated allocation of purchase price to identified intangible
assets.
Restructuring Charge. During the first quarter of fiscal
2005, we did not recognize any restructuring charges. During the
first quarter of fiscal 2004, we recognized a restructuring
charge in the sponsorship and other segment of approximately
$126,000 related to the relocation of the MPM business from
Santa Barbara, California to our principal office in New
York, New York. The MPM business was fully relocated to the New
York office during the third quarter of fiscal 2004.
|
|
|
Loss from Continuing Operations |
Total Loss from Continuing Operations. Our loss from
continuing operations before interest income, interest expense,
other income and income taxes was $3.5 million and
$8.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 and 2004,
respectively. The decrease in operating loss is due to the
financial performance improvements in our direct marketing,
retail stores, sponsorship and other segments, as described
below, and lower corporate costs.
Direct Marketing Income (Loss) from Operations. Our
income from direct marketing operations was $1.3 million in
the first quarter of fiscal 2005 while our loss from direct
marketing operations was $1.2 million in the first quarter
of fiscal 2004. The transition from direct marketing loss from
operations to direct marketing income from operations was
primarily a result of combining our direct marketing operations
with those of dELiA*s, leveraging our combined scale, selling
across our combined databases while controlling overall catalog
circulation, and consolidating fulfillment operations, along
with meaningful performance in our CCS brand.
Retail Stores Loss from Operations. Our loss from retail
stores operations was $1.3 million in the first quarter of
fiscal 2005 while our loss from retail stores operations was
$2.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. The
decrease in retail store loss from operations is primarily due
to higher sales on a comparative store basis as well as better
margins, largely due to an opening inventory that was much more
current than in the prior year, which permitted a selling
environment that relied less heavily on promotions. In addition,
consistent with our strategy of real estate rationalization, we
have closed seven underperforming stores since the beginning of
fiscal 2004.
Sponsorship and Other Income from Operations. Our income
from sponsorship and other operations increased 9.0% to
$4.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2005 from
$4.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2004. This
increase resulted primarily from stronger promotional marketing
income resulting from higher gross margins and controlled
selling and marketing expenses.
|
|
|
Interest and Other Income (Expense), Net |
Interest and other income, net of expense, includes income from
our cash equivalents and from available-for-sale marketable
securities and expenses related to our financing obligations. In
the three months ended April 30, 2005, we generated
interest income of $111,000 and interest expense of
$1.2 million primarily related to the issuance in July and
August 2003 of our Debentures. In the three months ended
April 30, 2004, we generated interest income of $120,000
and interest expense of $1.2 million. During the first
quarter of fiscal 2004, we recognized other income of $388,000
related to a working capital adjustment resulting from the MPM
acquisition that occurred in fiscal 2002.
22
In the three months ended April 30, 2005 and April 30,
2004 we recorded an income tax expense of $49,000 and $10,000,
respectively, due to taxable operating income generated at the
state level.
|
|
|
Loss From Discontinued Operations |
On June 1, 2005, we closed a transaction involving the sale
of substantially all of the assets and liabilities of Dans
Comp to XP. As a result of the purchase agreement, the results
of Dans Comp are presented as discontinued operations.
Total loss for the three months ended April 30, 2005
includes an $11.2 million loss from discontinued
operations, which resulted from a loss of $11.5 million due
to asset write-downs concurrent with the sale, offset by
approximately $246,000 of operating income in the period. Total
loss for the three months ended April 30, 2004 includes a
$171,000 loss from discontinued operations.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
We have financed our operations to date primarily through the
sale of equity, equity-linked and debt securities as we
generated negative cash flow from operations prior to fiscal
2001, in fiscal 2004 and for the three months ended
April 30, 2005. At April 30, 2005, we had
approximately $21.4 million of unrestricted cash, cash
equivalents and short-term investments. Our principal
commitments at April 30, 2005 consisted of the Debentures,
accounts payable, letter of credit draws under credit
facilities, accrued expenses and obligations under operating and
capital leases.
Net cash used in operating activities was $8.5 million in
the first three months of fiscal 2005 compared with net cash
used in operating activities of $9.3 million in the first
three months of fiscal 2004. The reduced cash usage was
primarily due to the decreased net loss from continuing
operations in first quarter of fiscal 2005 as compared with the
first quarter of fiscal 2004 offset by a larger decrease in
accounts payable.
Cash provided by investing activities was approximately $968,000
in the first three months of fiscal 2005 due primarily to
$2.3 million in proceeds from sales and maturities of
marketable securities, offset by $1.4 million for capital
expenditures. In the first three months of fiscal 2004, cash
used in investing activities was approximately $2.0 million
due primarily to the usage of $5.1 million to acquire
businesses and $1.6 million for capital expenditures,
offset by the net cash proceeds of $4.7 million from net
sales and maturities of available-for-sale marketable securities.
Net cash provided by financing activities was $33,000 in the
three months ended April 30, 2005 compared with
$3.0 million in the three months ended April 30, 2004.
The cash provided by financing activities in the three months
ended April 30, 2004 was due primarily to $3.1 million
of net borrowings under our line of credit agreement. We did not
draw under this agreement in the three months ended
April 30, 2005.
Our liquidity position as of April 30, 2005 consisted of
$21.4 million of unrestricted cash, cash equivalents and
short-term investments. We expect our liquidity position to meet
our anticipated cash needs for working capital and capital
expenditures, for at least the next 24 months, excluding
the impact of any potential, as yet unannounced acquisitions. We
have recently augmented our liquidity position by selling the
assets and related liabilities of Dans Comp for
$13.0 million in gross proceeds, and plan to issue common
stock to redeem our Series B Preferred Stock. These
actions, together with the backstopped $20 million rights
offering planned for the merchandise business after it is spun
off, have been designed to provide and preserve capital to fund
retail expansion and other operational and strategic
expenditures.
With respect to capital expenditures and retail store expansion
opportunities currently being undertaken, we currently estimate
approximately $6.0 million in such expenditures during
fiscal 2005, and an additional $1-2 million of additional
inventory requirements. In total, we expect to open ten
additional retail stores during fiscal 2005. In addition, we
expect to incur approximately $2.5 to $3.5 million in
spin-related expenses to execute the separation of our
businesses. Refer to the Executive Summary for
further details on the spin-off.
If cash generated from our operations is insufficient to satisfy
our cash needs, we may be required to raise additional capital.
If we raise additional funds through the issuance of equity
securities, our stockholders may
23
experience significant dilution. Furthermore, additional
financing may not be available when we need it or, if available,
financing may not be on terms favorable to us or to our
stockholders. If financing is not available when required or is
not available on acceptable terms, we may be unable to develop
or enhance our products or services. In addition, we may be
unable to take advantage of business opportunities or respond to
competitive pressures. Any of these events could have a material
and adverse effect on our business, results of operations and
financial condition.
On January 29, 2003, we adopted a stock repurchase program
authorizing the repurchase of up to $10.0 million of our
common stock from time to time in the open market at prevailing
market prices or in privately negotiated transactions. We have
repurchased 600,000 shares for approximately
$3.0 million under this plan through June 9, 2005. All
600,000 shares were repurchased during the three months
ended April 30, 2003.
On February 17, 2004, we approved the repurchase of up to
$5.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Debentures.
As of June 9, 2005, none of the Debentures have been
repurchased.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
During the first three months of fiscal 2005, there were no
changes in the Companys policies regarding the use of
estimates and other critical accounting policies. See
Managements Discussion and Analysis of Financial
Condition and Results of Operations, found in the
Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal
year ended January 31, 2005, for additional information
relating to the Companys use of estimates and other
critical accounting policies.
Effect of New Accounting Standards
We have described the impact anticipated from the adoption of
certain new accounting pronouncements effective in fiscal 2005
in Note 2 to the consolidated financial statements.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We enter into letters of credit to facilitate the international
purchase of merchandise. The related credit facility is
described fully in Note 13 to the consolidated financial
statements. We do not maintain any other off-balance sheet
transactions, arrangements, obligations or other relationships
with unconsolidated entities or others that are reasonably
likely to have a material current or future effect on our
financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or
expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures
or capital resources.
Forward-Looking Statements
Statements in this report expressing our expectations and
beliefs regarding our future results or performance are
forward-looking statements within the meaning of
Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
Securities Act) and Section 21E of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the Exchange
Act) that involve a number of substantial risks and
uncertainties. When used in this Form 10-Q, the words
anticipate, may, could,
plan, believe, estimate,
expect and intend and similar
expressions are intended to identify such forward-looking
statements.
Such statements are based upon managements current
expectations and are subject to risks and uncertainties that
could cause actual results to differ materially from those set
forth in or implied by the forward-looking statements. Actual
results may differ materially from those projected or suggested
in such forward-looking statements as a result of various
factors, including, but not limited to the following:
|
|
|
|
|
changes in business and economic conditions and other adverse
conditions in our markets; |
|
|
|
increased competition; |
|
|
|
our inability to achieve and maintain profitability; |
24
|
|
|
|
|
merchandising and marketing strategies; |
|
|
|
inventory performance; |
|
|
|
our ability to protect or enforce our intellectual property or
proprietary rights; |
|
|
|
changes in consumer preferences or fashion trends; |
|
|
|
the proposed spin-off of our merchandising business from our
media and marketing services businesses; |
|
|
|
seasonality of the retail and direct-marketing businesses; |
|
|
|
significant increases in paper, printing and postage costs; |
|
|
|
litigation that may have an adverse effect on the financial
results or reputation of the Company; |
|
|
|
reliance on third-party suppliers; |
|
|
|
our ability to successfully implement our operating, marketing,
acquisition and expansion strategies; and |
|
|
|
natural disasters and terrorist attacks. |
For a discussion of these and other factors, see the risks
discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year
ended January 31, 2005 in Item 1 Business,
under the caption Risk Factors That May Affect Future
Results.
Although we believe the expectations reflected in the
forward-looking statements are reasonable, they relate only to
events as of the date on which the statements are made, and we
cannot assure you that our future results, levels of activity,
performance or achievements will meet these expectations.
Moreover, neither we nor any other person assumes responsibility
for the accuracy and completeness of the forward-looking
statements. We do not intend to update any of the
forward-looking statements after the date of this report to
conform these statements to actual results or to changes in our
expectations, except as may be required by law.

|
Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market
Risk. |
As of April 30, 2005, we held a portfolio of
$4.0 million in fixed income marketable securities for
which, due to the conservative nature of our investments and
relatively short duration, we believe that the interest rate
risk is mitigated. We do not own any derivative financial
instruments in our portfolio. Additionally, our Debentures were
issued at a fixed interest rate of 5.375%. Accordingly, we do
not believe there is any material market risk exposure with
respect to derivatives or other financial instruments that would
require disclosure under this item.
|
|
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures. |
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have
evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and
procedures, as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and
15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended,
as of the end of the period covered by this report. Based on
that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief
Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and
procedures are effective in ensuring that all material
information required to be included in this quarterly report has
been made known to them in a timely fashion.
Our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer also
conducted an evaluation of our internal control over financial
reporting to determine whether any changes occurred during the
quarter covered by this report that have materially affected, or
are reasonably likely to affect, our internal control over
financial reporting. Based on the evaluation, there have been no
such changes during the quarter covered by this report.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION
|
|
Item 1. |
Legal Proceedings |
On or about November 5, 2001, a putative class action
complaint was filed in the United States District Court for the
Southern District of New York naming as defendants the Company,
James K. Johnson, Jr., Matthew C. Diamond, BancBoston
Robertson Stephens, Volpe Brown Whelan and Company, Dain
Rauscher Wessel and Landenburg Thalmann & Co., Inc. The
complaint purportedly was filed on behalf of persons purchasing
Company stock between May 14, 1999 and December 6,
2000, and alleged violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2) and
15 of the Securities Act of 1933 (the Securities
Act) and Section 10(b) of the Securities Exchange Act
of 1934 (the 34 Act) and Rule 10b-5
promulgated thereunder. On or about April 19, 2002, the
plaintiff filed an amended complaint against the Company, the
individual defendants and the underwriters of the Companys
initial public offering. The amended complaint asserted
violations of Section 10(b) of the 34 Act and
mirrored allegations asserted against scores of other issuers
sued by the plaintiffs counsel. Pursuant to an omnibus
agreement negotiated with representatives of the
plaintiffs counsel, Messrs. Diamond and Johnson were
dismissed from the litigation without prejudice. In accordance
with the Courts case management instructions, we joined in
a global motion to dismiss the amended complaint, which was
filed by the issuers liaison counsel. By opinion and order
dated February 19, 2003, the District Court denied in part
and granted in part the global motion to dismiss. With respect
to the Company, the Court dismissed the Section 10(b) claim
and let the plaintiffs proceed on the Section 11 claim. The
Company participated in Court-ordered mediation with the other
issuer defendants, the issuers insurers and plaintiffs to
explore whether a global resolution of the claims against the
issuers could be reached. In June 2004, as a result of the
mediation, a Settlement Agreement was executed on behalf of the
issuers (including the Company), insurers and plaintiffs and
submitted to the Court. Any definitive settlement, however, will
require final approval by the Court after notice to all class
members and a fairness hearing. If such approval is obtained,
all claims against the Company and the individual defendants
will be dismissed with prejudice.
On or about March 8, 2003, several putative class action
complaints were filed in the United States District Court for
the Southern District of New York naming as defendants the
Company, James K. Johnson, Jr., Matthew C. Diamond and
Samuel A. Gradess. The complaints purportedly were filed on
behalf of persons who purchased our Common Stock between
August 1, 2002 and January 23, 2003, and, among other
things, allege violations of Section 10(b) and
Section 20(a) of the 34 Act and Rule 10b-5
promulgated thereunder stemming from a series of allegedly false
and misleading statements made by the Company to the market
between August 1, 2002 and January 23, 2003. At a
conference held on May 30, 2003, the Court consolidated the
actions described above. On August 5, 2003, the plaintiffs
filed a consolidated class action complaint (the
Consolidated Complaint) naming the same defendants,
which supersedes the initial complaint. Relying in part on
information allegedly obtained from former employees, the
Consolidated Complaint alleges, among other things,
misrepresentations of our business and financial condition and
the results of operations during the period from March 16,
2001 through January 23, 2003 (the Class
Period), which artificially inflated the price of our
stock, including without limitation, improper acceleration of
revenue, misrepresentation of expense treatment, failure to
properly account for and disclose consignment transactions, and
improper deferral of expense recognition. The Consolidated
Complaint further alleges that during the Class Period the
individual defendants and the Company sold stock and completed
acquisitions using our stock. The parties have entered into a
stipulation providing for the settlement of the claims against
all defendants including the Company, for $6.75 million.
That amount, was paid by the Companys insurers, and was
being held in escrow pending entry of an order and judgment
following a hearing on the fairness of the proposed settlement.
That hearing took place on November 5, 2004 and the
District Court approved the stipulation and settlement and
ordered that the class action litigation be dismissed with
prejudice on December 2, 2004.
dELiA*s was a party to a purported class action litigation,
which originally was filed in two separate complaints in Federal
District Court for the Southern District of New York in 1999
against dELiA*s Inc. and certain of its officers and directors.
These complaints were consolidated. The consolidated complaint
alleges, among other things, that the defendants violated
Rule 10b-5 under the 34 Act by making material
misstatements and by failing to disclose certain allegedly
material information regarding trends in the business
26
during part of 1998. The settlement, which was approved by the
Court in April 2004, became effective on August 23, 2004.
The entire settlement amount was covered by dELiA*s
insurance carrier. By order dated March 23, 2005, the
District Court authorized the distribution of the settlement
funds and payment of administrative fees and expenses.
On or about February 1, 2002, a complaint was filed in the
Circuit Court of Cook County, Illinois naming dELiA*s as a
defendant. The complaint purportedly was filed on behalf of the
State of Illinois under the False Claims Act and the Illinois
Whistleblower Reward and Protection Act and seeks unspecified
damages and penalties for dELiA*s alleged failure to collect and
remit use tax on items sold by dELiA*s through its catalogs and
website to Illinois residents. On April 8, 2004, the
complaint was served on dELiA*s by the Illinois Attorney
Generals Office, which assumed prosecution of the
complaint from the original filer. On June 15, 2004 dELiA*s
filed a motion to dismiss the action and joined in a
Consolidated Joint Brief In Support Of Motion To Dismiss
previously filed by our counsel and others on behalf of
defendants in similar actions being pursued by the Illinois
Attorney General, and, together with such other defendants,
filed on August 6, 2004 a Consolidated Joint Reply In
Support Of Defendants Combined Motion To Dismiss. Oral
argument on the motion to dismiss was held on September 22,
2004, and dELiA*s submitted a Supplemental Brief in support of
its Motion to Dismiss on Common Grounds on October 13,
2004. On January 13, 2005, an order was entered by the
Circuit Court denying Defendants Motion to Dismiss. On
February 14, 2005, dELiA*s filed a Motion For Leave to File
an Interlocutory Appeal, which was granted by the Circuit Court
on March 14, 2005, finding there were issues of law to be
determined. On April 8, 2005, dELiA*s filed a petition with
the Illinois Appellate Court to consider and hear the appeal.
That application was denied by an order of the Appellate Court
entered on May 23, 2005. The Company still believes there
is no merit to the claim and plans to vigorously defend the
case. The Company cannot at this time assess the likelihood of a
successful defense. Management believes the proceedings will not
have a material adverse effect on our financial condition or
operating results.
On or about April 6, 2005, a complaint was filed against
the Company by NCR Corporation (NCR) in the United
States District Court for the Southern District of Ohio Western
Division (Dayton) alleging that the Company has been infringing
upon seven patents owned by NCR. The complaint did not specify a
specific dollar amount of damages sought by NCR. The Company
entered into a settlement agreement with NCR, dated as of
May 20, 2005, whereby NCR agreed to dismissal of the
complaint with prejudice in exchange for a $250,000 payment from
the Company. The notice of dismissal dismissing the lawsuit
brought by NCR against the Company was filed by NCR with the
United States District Court on May 25, 2005.
We are involved in additional legal proceedings that have arisen
in the ordinary course of business. We believe that, apart from
the actions set forth above, there is no claim or litigation
pending, the outcome of which could have a material adverse
effect on our financial condition or operating results.
