JoS. A. Bank Clothiers Reports Results for Third Quarter of Fiscal Year 2013
Q3 Adjusted EPS Increases 9%, at Top End of Pre-Announced Range
November Sales Increased in All Channels
HAMPSTEAD, Md., Dec. 5, 2013 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- JoS. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. (Nasdaq:JOSB) announces that adjusted earnings per diluted share were $0.51 for the third quarter of fiscal 2013, excluding approximately $1.2 million of legal and professional expenses incurred in connection with the Company's acquisition proposal for The Men's Wearhouse, Inc. The third quarter results represent a 9% increase compared to diluted earnings of $0.47 per share for the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 and are at the top end of the projected EPS range previously announced by the Company. GAAP earnings for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 were $0.49 per diluted share (including the $1.2 million of legal and professional expenses), also at the top end of the previously announced range. GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 was $13.6 million as compared to net income of $13.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal year 2012.
Total sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 increased 6.3% to $247.5 million from $232.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal year 2012. Comparable store sales decreased 0.1% and Direct Marketing sales increased 23.5% in the third quarter of 2013 as compared to the third quarter of 2012. Combined comparable store and Internet sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2013 increased 2.4% when compared to the third quarter of fiscal year 2012.
R. Neal Black, President and CEO of JoS. A. Bank Clothiers, Inc. stated: "Our performance in the third quarter is a strong indication that we are taking the right actions to improve both our top and bottom lines. In particular, the customer is responding well to the changes we are making in the promotional side of our business and our non-promotional business continues to grow strongly. This was evident in our improving sales trend, both in stores and online, as well as in our marketing efficiency and the 40 basis point increase in our gross profit margin rate in the third quarter, which represents our second consecutive quarterly increase."
Mr. Black continued, "For the start of the fourth quarter our total sales, comparable store sales and Direct sales all increased during the fiscal month of November 2013 as compared to the same period of 2012. That said, we recognize that the pivotal month of December is still ahead of us and, across our organization, we are highly focused on continuing to improve our sales trend. Taken together, we are pleased that our strategies are resonating with our customers and we look forward to taking advantage of the opportunities to grow both our stores and online businesses and delivering improved results in the future."
Comparing the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 to the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, GAAP diluted earnings were $1.28 per share as compared to $1.83 per share and net income was $36.0 million as compared to $51.3 million. Total sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 decreased 2.7% to $676.1 million from $694.5 million for the first nine months of fiscal year 2012, while comparable store sales decreased 8.5% and Direct Marketing sales increased 10.5%. Combined comparable store and Internet sales for the first nine months of fiscal year 2013 decreased 6.4% when compared to the first nine months of fiscal year 2012.
The third quarter of fiscal year 2013 ended November 2, 2013; the third quarter of fiscal year 2012 ended October 27, 2012.
This press release includes a non-GAAP measure of diluted earnings per share because we believe that presentation of adjusted earnings per diluted share provides useful information to investors as it is more indicative of the Company's operations.
