The companys debt-to-total-capital ratio was 29.8 percent. On September 28, 2010, the company issued $500 million of senior unsecured notes with the proceeds to be used for general corporate purposes, including paying off $260 million of long-term debt maturities over the next year.
Consistent with the seasonality of the business, year-to-date, net cash flow used for operating activities was approximately $428 million, an increase of $109 million, compared with a use of approximately $319 million in the first nine months of 2009, primarily due to lower factoring of receivables in 2010.
Sales by Business Unit
Mattel Girls and Boys Brands
For the third quarter, worldwide gross sales for the Mattel Girls & Boys Brands business unit were $1.17 billion, up 8 percent versus a year ago. Worldwide gross sales for the Barbie® brand grew 6 percent compared to last year. Worldwide gross sales for Other Girls Brands were up 7 percent, driven primarily by strong performance of the Disney Princess doll line and the introduction of the Monster High doll line. Worldwide gross sales for the Wheels category, which includes the Hot Wheels®, Matchbox® and Tyco R/C® brands, were down 5 percent. Worldwide gross sales for the Entertainment business, which includes Radica® and Games and Puzzles, increased by 23 percent for the quarter, mostly attributable to growth in the Toy Story® 3 and World Wrestling Entertainment properties.
Fisher-Price Brands
Third quarter worldwide gross sales for the Fisher-Price Brands business unit, which includes the Fisher-Price® Core, Fisher-Price® Friends and Power Wheels® brands, were $743.4 million, or down 5 percent versus the prior year, primarily due to declines in Fisher-Price® Core and Power Wheels®, which offset gains in Fisher-Price® Friends, primarily driven by products supporting evergreen entertainment properties such as Thomas and Friends® and the new product introduction of Sing-A-Ma-Jigs!.
American Girl Brands
Third quarter gross sales for the American Girl Brands business unit, which offers American Girl® branded products directly to consumers, were $84.4 million, up 2 percent versus last year, reflecting the benefit of the opening of two new boutique stores in Denver and Kansas City and the retiring of historical character, Felicity, to the American Girl Archives, as well as the launch of the My American Girl line, a re-positioning of the contemporary line featuring a doll configurator and virtual world.
