Deckers Outdoor Corporation
Supplemental Information Relating to the Three Month Transition Period Quarter Ended March 31, 2014

 

The Company has changed its fiscal year end to March 31 from December 31. This supplemental information relates to the three month transition period ended March 31, 2014.

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales for the transition period increased 11.7% to $294.7 million from $263.8 million for the same period last year. Domestic sales increased 8.5% to $198.3 million and international sales increased 18.9% to $96.4 million.

 

UGGâ brand net sales for the transition period increased 15.8% to $197.6 million compared to $170.6 million for the same period last year. The increase in sales was driven by sales gains across all primary channels, including an increase in global E-Commerce sales, the sales contribution from new retail store openings and an increase in same store sales, and higher domestic wholesale sales.

 

Tevaâ brand net sales for the transition period decreased 9.2% to $46.8 million compared to $51.6 million for the same period last year. The decrease in sales was primarily attributable to lower domestic wholesale sales.

 

Sanukâ brand net sales for the transition period decreased 0.8% to $30.7 million compared to $30.9 million for the same period last year. The decrease in sales was primarily attributable to lower international distributor sales, partially offset by an increase in domestic wholesale, retail and E-Commerce sales.

 

Combined net sales of the Company’s other brands increased 84.3% to $19.6 million for the transition period compared to $10.6 million for the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to a $8.2 million increase in sales for the HOKA ONE ONE® brand compared to the same period last year.

 

 
 


Total wholesale and distributor sales for the transition period increased 1.4% to $176.0 million. Domestic wholesale increased 2.2%, European wholesale and distributor sales increased 9.2%, and Asia-Pacific wholesale and distributor sales decreased 22.5%.

Global Direct-to-Consumer revenue increased 31.6% to $118.7 million with a Direct-to-Consumer comparable sales increase of 16.9%. E-Commerce sales increased 45.0% to $38.6 million. Retail sales increased 26.1% to $80.1 million driven by 42 new stores and same store sales increase of 4.0%. For all stores open at least 12 months as of March 30, 2014, the average sales per square foot was approximately $1,300 versus $1,500 for the same period in 2013.

 

Gross Margin

 

Gross margin for the transition period was 48.9% compared to 46.8% in the same period last year. The 210 basis point increase was primarily attributable to a decrease in product costs due to lower sheepskin prices, further integration of UGGpure, and a greater contribution coming from our Direct-to-Consumer division this year compared with last year.

 

SG&A

 

Total SG&A expense for the transition period was $144.7 million or 49.1% of net sales compared to $120.9 million or 45.8% of net sales a year ago. The 330 basis point increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales was primarily attributable to additional retail and E-Commerce related expenses, partially offset by an increase in net sales.

 

Operating Loss

 

Operating loss for transition period was $(0.4) million or (0.1)% of net sales compared to operating income of $2.7 million or 1.0% of net sales last year. The change in operating margin was driven by the aforementioned increase in SG&A expenses related to the expansion of our Direct-to-Consumer operations.

 

 
 

  

Taxes

 

Deckers recorded income tax expense of $1.9 million in the transition period compared to income tax expense of $1.5 million a year ago. The Company recorded a tax expense despite an operating loss due primarily to accounting rules that apply to the transition period.

 

Net Earnings (Loss)

 

Net loss for the transition period was $(2.7) million or $(0.08) per diluted share, compared to net income of $1.0 million or $0.03 per diluted share a year ago.
