The Gymboree Corporation Reports Third Quarter Fiscal 2015 Results

 

San Francisco, Calif., December 10, 2015 – The Gymboree Corporation (the “Company”) today reported consolidated financial results for the third fiscal quarter ended October 31, 2015.

 

·

Comparable sales (including online sales) decreased 3% during the third quarter of fiscal 2015

·

Net Sales of $305.4 million, a decrease of 3.6% compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2014

·

Adjusted EBITDA was $28.2 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2015 compared to $29.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2014, a decrease of 5.2%

 

“While our business in the third quarter was challenging, we are encouraged by our performance to date in the fourth quarter,” said Mark Breitbard, Chief Executive Officer. “Our quarter to date comparable retail sales are up mid-single digits, and while we continue to expect our Adjusted EBITDA to be in the range of $95 million to $105 million, we believe the lower half of the range is the more likely outcome.”

 

Third Quarter Results (13-weeks ended October 31, 2015 versus 13-weeks ended November 1, 2014)

 

·

Comparable sales (including online sales) decreased 3%;

·

Net sales were $305.4 million, a decrease of 3.6% compared to $316.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, which was primarily driven by a decrease in Gymboree brand net sales;

·

Gross profit was $122.8 million, or 40.2% of net sales, compared to $125.9 million, or 39.7% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2014;

·

Adjusted gross profit was $124.5 million, or 40.7% of net sales, compared to $127.7 million, or 40.3% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal 2014, an increase of 40 basis points;

  

 

·

SG&A expense was $108.6 million, or 35.5% of net sales, compared to $113.7 million, or 35.9% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014. The $5.1 million decrease in SG&A expense was primarily driven by a decrease in expenses due to store closures and reduction in asset impairment charges for under-performing stores, partially offset by an increase in marketing expenses;

·

Adjusted SG&A expense was $105.7 million, or 34.6% of net sales, compared to $111.4 million, or 35.2% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2014;

·

Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for other items as described below, was $28.2 million compared to $29.8 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2014, a decrease of $1.6 million or 5.2%;

·

Net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation for the quarter was $10.0 million compared to $522.1 million for the same quarter of fiscal 2014. The third fiscal quarter of 2014 included a $591.4 million non-cash goodwill and intangible asset impairment charge.

 

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted SG&A expense are not financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). For a description of Adjusted EBITDA and a reconciliation of these measures to GAAP measures, see “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below and Exhibit D of this press release.

 

Net Sales Results for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2015

 

For the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2015, Gymboree’s consolidated net sales were $305.4 million and $855.0 million, respectively, compared to the same prior year period of $316.8 million and $853.1 million, respectively. On a constant currency basis, net sales decreased by $2.5 million and $5.0 million for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2015, respectively, compared to the same prior year period of $314.3 million and $848.1 million, respectively.  In calculating net sales on a constant currency basis, average current period foreign exchange rates are applied to both current period and prior period net sales. The Company provides net sales on a constant currency basis to help investors assess sales trends, excluding the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.

 

The following table details the Company’s net retail sales for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2015 in order to help investors further assess sales trends:

Balance Sheet Highlights

 

·

As of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2015, there were $50.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the Company’s $225 million asset-backed loan facility and approximately $142.3 million of undrawn availability after being reduced by letters of credit of $32.7 million. As previously announced, on September 24, 2015, the Company amended its asset-backed loan facility to, among other things, extend the maturity date and provide for the incurrence of asset-backed term loans under the facility in an amount not to exceed $75 million, subject to a borrowing base.

  

 

·

Capital expenditures were $5.1 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2015.

·

Inventory balances at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2015 were $265.4 million, compared to $259.3 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2014. On a per square foot basis, inventory cost was up 4% over the third quarter of fiscal 2014. Inventory units were up on a low double digit percentage basis.

 

Fiscal 2015 Business Outlook

 

The Company’s fiscal 2015 outlook is based on current economic environment trends, as well as management expectations for the remainder of the year.

 

For the full year, the Company expects that Adjusted EBITDA will likely be in the lower half of the previously announced range of $95 million to $105 million, which includes the net impact to Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $11 million resulting from the west coast port slowdown in the first half of the year. Based on this guidance, the Company expects to have sufficient liquidity during fiscal 2015 to service its debt and invest in the business to drive long-term growth.

 

Stores

 

During fiscal 2015, the Company continues to plan to open approximately 13 stores and expects to close approximately 30 to 40 stores.

 

Capital Expenditures

 

During fiscal 2015, the Company now anticipates spending approximately $20 million to $25 million for capital expenditures.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for other items including, non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets and sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the Acquisition and other non-recurring or unusual items. The Company is likely to exclude these items from Adjusted EBITDA in the future and may also exclude other similar items, the effect of which is uncertain but may be significant in amount. The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts.

 

 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP (see Exhibit D for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net loss attributable to The Gymboree Corporation).

ADJUSTED EBITDA:

The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income (loss) attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense/benefit, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for other items, including non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets, sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the acquisition of the Company by investment funds sponsored by Bain Capital Partners, LLC (the "Acquisition"), non-recurring and unusual items.

 

Adjusted EBITDA is not a performance measure under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.
