Body Central Corp. Announces Second Quarter 2013 Financial Results
Jacksonville, FL — August 1, 2013 — Body Central Corp. (Nasdaq: BODY) today announced financial results for the second quarter of 2013.
Highlights for the thirteen weeks ended June 29, 2013:
· Net revenues for the quarter decreased 5.3% to $75.1 million, compared to $79.4 million for the second quarter of 2012.
· Store sales decreased 2.1% to $66.9 million due to a comparable-store sales decrease of 13.2%, partially offset by a net increase of 29 stores over the same quarter last year.
· Direct sales decreased by 25.0% to $8.3 million from $11.0 million over the same quarter last year.
· The loss from operations includes a $10.4 million asset impairment charge related to the direct business. The loss from operations including this impairment was $15.2 million, as compared to income from operations of $5.5 million for the second quarter in 2012. Excluding the $10.4 million impairment charge, the loss from operations would have been $4.8 million.
· The net loss was $12.8 million, or ($0.78) per diluted share based on 16.3 million weighted average shares outstanding. This includes $10.4 million, or ($0.63) per diluted share in an asset impairment charge related to the direct business. Excluding the $10.4 million impairment charge, the net loss would have been $2.4 million, or ($0.15) per diluted share. Net income for the second quarter of 2012 was $3.4 million, or $0.21 per diluted share based on 16.4 million weighted average shares outstanding.
· The Company opened 9 new stores and closed 2 stores during the second quarter and operated 286 stores as of June 29, 2013.
Brian Woolf, Body Central’s CEO, stated: “While we did not anticipate improvement in our results until the second half, our second quarter performance was more challenging than we expected. During the quarter we took aggressive steps to clear inventory to make room for the new product assortment that we believe better reflects the tastes of our customer. We also brought product in earlier than last year in order to set the floors for the Back-to-School season, which contributed to higher inventory levels at the end of the quarter. Our comparable sales decrease and merchandise margin pressure was the result of a decline in store traffic combined with deep markdowns. In the direct business, we saw a significant decline in sales and margin as the result of our strategic decision to more closely align our catalog and website with the offering in our retail stores.”
Mr. Woolf added: “Our objective going forward is that our merchandise assortment will be fresh, stylish and trend driven. To this end, we continue to enhance our planning tools, vendor resources, market intelligence and consumer understanding. We are confident in our strategic direction that sets a foundation to rejuvenate the Body Central brand and drive improved performance across our channels. While we fully expect our initiatives to take hold, near-term business will likely remain challenging and require a more promotional environment in our stores.”
Mr. Woolf concluded: “We believe that by creating a consistent brand message and product offering across all channels, and developing a targeted, compelling marketing program, we will be able to reengage our customer and drive long-term sales growth and profitability.”
Balance Sheet highlights as of June 29, 2013:
Cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $38.8 million at the end of the second quarter of 2013 compared to $42.0 million at the end of the second quarter in the prior year.
Average store inventories increased 8.6% and 7.3%, respectively, at cost and in units from one year ago, partially attributed to the earlier flow of fall goods into our stores.
The Company had no long-term debt as of the end of the second quarter 2013 and 2012.
Reported results are preliminary and remain subject to adjustment until the filing of our Form 10-Q with the SEC.
