WOLVERINE WORLDWIDE REPORTS FULL-YEAR RESULTS IN LINE WITH GUIDANCE AND PROVIDES 2016 OUTLOOK
Rockford, Michigan, February 23, 2016 - Wolverine World Wide, Inc. (NYSE: WWW) today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and full year ended January 2, 2016. Adjusted financial results exclude restructuring and impairment, acquisition-related integration costs and debt extinguishment costs. References to underlying revenue indicate reported revenue adjusted for the impact of foreign exchange, retail store closures, and the exit of certain brand businesses (Patagonia footwear in 2015 results and Cushe in 2016 guidance).
“We finished the year with both revenue and adjusted earnings per share in line with our expectations for the fourth quarter, highlighted by significant growth in adjusted earnings per share on a constant currency basis,” said Blake W. Krueger, Wolverine Worldwide’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. “Our ability to deliver strong earnings in a challenging global retail and consumer environment continues to validate the power of our diversified brand portfolio and disciplined operational execution. Looking back on the full year, we made significant progress against our strategic priorities, including investing in global organic growth for our key brands and eCommerce.”

“The Company delivered solid fourth-quarter earnings despite a very tough environment, resulting from in-line revenue performance and continued discipline over operating expenses,” stated Mike Stornant, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. “This last quarter was incredibly volatile for the whole industry as global economic pressures worsened, holiday sales were tepid and unseasonably warm weather impacted many regions. We foreshadowed these challenging conditions in mid-September, and over the last few months we have been proactive to mitigate our short-term exposure and position the Company to be even stronger in 2016," continued Mr. Stornant. "Since early September, we’ve made important leadership and organizational changes focused on fixing under-performing areas of the business. We are confident we are well-positioned to navigate the challenging global landscape in front of us.”
FISCAL 2016 GUIDANCE
The Company expects the global retail environment to remain challenging in 2016, with the current domestic retail channel inventory overhang and the slowdown in China potentially impacting key markets. The significantly stronger U.S. dollar is also a meaningful headwind on the Company's outlook for fiscal 2016. Planned retail store closures and the exit of the Cushe business will also impact the year ahead.
For fiscal 2016, the Company expects:
• | Consolidated reported revenue in the range of $2.475 billion to $2.575 billion, representing an underlying revenue decline in the range of approximately 4.3% to 0.5%. Foreign exchange, planned store closures, and the exit of the Cushe business represent approximately $100 million of revenue impact to fiscal 2016. Reported revenue is expected to decline in the range of approximately 8.0% to 4.3%. |
• | Flat to slightly lower gross margin resulting from lower product costs offset by approximately 90 basis points of negative currency impact. |
• | Flat to slightly lower adjusted operating margin compared to the prior year, including 90 basis points of negative currency impact. Reported operating margin is expected to increase approximately 70 basis points compared to the prior year. |
• | A higher adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 28.0%. The reported tax rate is expected to be approximately 27.0%. |
• | Diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 97.5 million. |
2
• | Adjusted diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.30 to $1.40. Constant currency adjusted earnings per share in the range of $1.48 to $1.58. Reported diluted earnings per share in the range of $1.20 to $1.30. |
“Our business model is well-suited for challenging retail environments, built on our diversified brand portfolio, extensive global reach and history as strong operators,” said Blake W. Krueger. “The Company's omni-channel investments have accelerated eCommerce growth in the past year, and our Strategic Realignment Plan is proceeding as planned. We believe our recent actions to strategically reorganize our brand operating groups under the right leadership and to plan for a meaningful investment in consumer insights and product innovation position us well as we enter the new year. I am excited about the year ahead."

* | To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company describes what certain financial measures would have been if acquisition-related integration costs, restructuring and impairment costs and debt extinguishment costs were excluded. The Company also describes the revenue impact from planned retail store closures associated with the Strategic Realignment Plan, the exit of the Patagonia Footwear business, and, for 2016 guidance, the exit of the Cushe business. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors to increase comparability to the prior period by adjusting for certain items that may not be indicative of core operating measures and to better identify trends in our business. The adjusted financial results are used by management to, and allow investors to, evaluate the operating performance of the Company on a comparable basis. The Company has defined net debt as debt less cash and cash equivalents. The Company believes that netting these sources of cash against debt provides a clearer picture of the future demands on cash to repay debt. The Company evaluates results of operations on both a reported and a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company believes providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding results of operations, consistent with how the Company evaluates performance. The Company calculates constant currency by converting the current-period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current period reported results. Management does not, nor should investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitution for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are found in the financial tables above. |
