GENESCO REPORTS FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2015 RESULTS
NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 30, 2014 --- Genesco Inc. (NYSE:GCO) today reported earnings from continuing operations for the first quarter ended May 3, 2014, of $14.1 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, compared to earnings from continuing operations of $14.5 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, for the first quarter ended May 4, 2013. Fiscal 2015 first quarter results reflect expenses of $7.7 million, or $0.21 per diluted share after tax, including $5.7 million related to a change in accounting for bonus awards; $3.1 million related to deferred purchase price payments in connection with the acquisition of Schuh Group Limited; and $2.0 million in network intrusion expenses, asset impairment charges and other legal matters, offset by a $3.1 million gain on a lease termination. Fiscal 2014 first quarter results reflected expenses of $10.7 million, or $0.33 per diluted share after tax, including $6.5 million associated with a change in accounting for bonus awards, $2.9 million related to deferred purchase price payments in connection with the acquisition of Schuh Group Limited, and $1.3 million for impairment charges and network intrusion expenses.
Adjusted for the items described above in both periods, earnings from continuing operations were $19.3 million, or $0.81 per diluted share, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2015, compared to earnings from continuing operations of $22.2 million, or $0.94 per diluted share, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2014. For consistency with Fiscal 2015's previously announced earnings expectations and with previously reported adjusted results for the prior year period, the Company believes that the disclosure of the results from continuing operations adjusted for these items will be useful to investors. A reconciliation of earnings and earnings per share from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles with the adjusted earnings and earnings per share numbers presented in this paragraph is set forth on Schedule B to this press release.
Net sales for the first quarter of Fiscal 2015 increased 6.3% to $629 million from $591 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2014. Consolidated first quarter 2015 comparable sales, including same store sales and comparable e-commerce and catalog sales, increased 1%, with a 1% increase in the Journeys Group, a 1% increase in the Lids Sports Group, a 1% decrease in the Schuh Group, and a 1% decrease in the Johnston & Murphy Group.
Robert J. Dennis, chairman, president and chief executive officer of Genesco, said, “We are pleased with our performance given the choppy retail environment, combined with the lack of a meaningful, new fashion driver in the teen footwear space early in the year. We continue to expect stronger comparable sales gains and improved profitability as we move into the back half of the year.
“The second quarter is off to a solid start with comparable sales up 3% through May 24. We are encouraged by the recent pace of business and optimistic that we can build on our current momentum.
“Based on first quarter performance and current visibility, we remain comfortable with our previously announced guidance for adjusted Fiscal 2015 diluted earnings per share in the range of $5.40 to $5.55, a 6% to 9% increase over Fiscal 2014’s adjusted earnings per share of $5.09. Consistent with our previous guidance, these expectations do not include non-cash asset impairments and other charges, partially offset by a gain on a lease termination in the first quarter this year, which we estimate will be in the range of $2.6 million to $3.1 million pretax, or $0.07 to $0.08 per share, after tax, in Fiscal 2015.
Exhibit 99.1
“They also do not reflect compensation expense associated with the Schuh deferred purchase price as described above, which is currently estimated at approximately $7.2 million, or $0.30 per diluted share, for the full year. This guidance assumes a comparable sales increase in the low single digit range for the full fiscal year.” A reconciliation of the adjusted financial measures cited in the guidance to their corresponding measures as reported pursuant to U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles is included in Schedule B to this press release.

Cautionary Note Concerning Forward-Looking Statements
This release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding the performance outlook for the Company and its individual businesses (including, without limitation, sales, margins and earnings) and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to estimates reflected in forward-looking statements, including the amount of required accruals related to the earn-out bonus potentially payable to Schuh management based on the achievement of certain performance objectives; the timing and amount of non-cash asset impairments related to retail store fixed assets or to intangible assets of acquired businesses; weakness in the consumer economy; competition in the Company's markets; inability of customers to obtain credit; fashion trends that affect the sales or product margins of the Company's retail product offerings; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; bankruptcies or deterioration in financial condition of significant wholesale customers; disruptions in product supply or distribution; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; the Company's ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions, expand its business and diversify its product base; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could affect the Company's prospects and cause differences from expectations include the ability to build, open, staff and support additional retail stores and to renew leases in existing stores and control occupancy costs, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company's market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company's shares; variations from expected pension-related charges caused by conditions in the financial markets; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations and environmental matters involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of, and elsewhere in, our SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via our website, www.genesco.com.
