EXPRESS, INC. REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2020 RESULTS
•Second quarter comparable sales of negative 24%
•eCommerce continued to accelerate; second consecutive month of positive demand
•Second quarter diluted loss per share of $1.67; adjusted diluted loss per share of $1.48
•Ended quarter with $193 million in cash
•Identified additional $40 million of liquidity benefits bringing the total to $425 million
Columbus, Ohio - August 26, 2020 - Fashion apparel retailer Express, Inc. (NYSE: EXPR), announced its financial results for the second quarter of 2020. These results, which cover the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2020, are compared to the thirteen weeks ended August 3, 2019.
“When we began the transformation of Express, we certainly did not anticipate a global pandemic, and none of us could have imagined the duration or magnitude of its impact on the retail apparel industry”, said Tim Baxter, Chief Executive Officer. “And while we have taken decisive and appropriate action to protect the financial health of our Company over this extended period of time, we have also continued to advance each of the four foundational pillars of our corporate strategy. I am encouraged by the momentum in our eCommerce business, the strong response to our August fashion deliveries, and the increase in customer engagement with our brand messages. While mall traffic continues to be challenging, I would expect our results to improve as we move through the back half of the year.”
Second Quarter 2020 Operating Results:
•Consolidated net sales decreased 48% to $245.7 million from $472.7 million in the second quarter of 2019, with consolidated comparable sales down 24%.
◦Comparable retail sales, which includes both Express stores and e-commerce, decreased 28% compared to the second quarter of 2019.
◦Comparable outlet sales decreased 15% versus the second quarter of 2019.
•Gross margin was (17.9)% of net sales compared to 26.8% in last year's second quarter. The decrease was driven by the sales impact of COVID-19, the liquidation of spring inventory that accumulated as a result of store closures, and a $6.8 million non-cash impairment charge taken against certain long-lived store assets.
•Selling, general, and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $92.8 million, 37.8% of net sales, versus $135.7 million, 28.7% of net sales, in last year's second quarter. The decrease was driven primarily by the COVID-19 mitigation actions taken by the Company, a reduction in variable costs driven by the sales decline, and the previously announced corporate restructuring.
•Operating loss was $136.3 million compared to a loss of $9.8 million in the second quarter of 2019.
•Income tax benefit was $29.5 million at an effective tax rate of 21.5%, compared to income tax expense of $0.7 million at an effective tax rate of (8.1)% in last year's second quarter. The Company's effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2020 was impacted primarily by the recording of a valuation allowance against the Company's deferred tax assets.
•Net loss was $107.8 million, or a loss of $1.67 per diluted share. On an adjusted basis, net loss was $95.6 million, or a loss of $1.48 per diluted share for the second quarter of 2020. The adjusted loss excludes the income tax benefit from the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security (CARES) Act of $9.1 million, as well as the negative non-cash impacts of the $16.2 million deferred tax asset valuation allowance and the $6.8 million pretax impairment charge mentioned above. This compares to a net loss of $9.7 million, or a loss of $0.14 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019. On an adjusted basis, net loss was $7.2 million, or a loss of $0.11 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2019.
Second Quarter 2020 Balance Sheet Highlights:
•Cash and cash equivalents totaled $192.9 million versus $154.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2019.
•Capital expenditures totaled $10.1 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, compared to $12.1 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 3, 2019.
•Inventory was $232.3 million at the end of the second quarter, down 14% compared to $268.8 million at the end of the prior year’s second quarter.
•Long-term debt was $165 million at the end of the second quarter.
COVID-19 Impact Mitigation Actions:
The Company continued to aggressively pursue additional liquidity measures and now expects to realize $425 million of related benefits in 2020, which is an increase from the previously announced $385 million. These benefits are the result of a number of actions taken to maintain liquidity throughout the COVID-19 pandemic. Examples of these actions and steps taken to support associates include:
•Accessed $165 million from its $250 million asset based credit facility
•Cut second quarter inventory receipts by over $100 million
•Lowered expected annual capital expenditures by approximately $25 million
•Identified cost savings of approximately $95 million dollars to be realized in 2020, including the impact from our previously announced COVID-19 mitigation actions, and a decrease in our variable costs as a result of the decline in sales
•Negotiated $20 million in rent abatements with a number of landlords
•Anticipated cash benefits in 2020 from the CARES Act of approximately $20 million, including the expanded operating loss carry back, employer payroll tax credit and deferral provisions. Additional significant cash benefits from the CARES Act are also expected to be realized in 2021.
•Implemented work from home protocols to maintain productivity
•Furloughed associates while maintaining medical benefits
Liquidity benefits of $195 million were realized in the first quarter and $85 million were realized in the second quarter. These benefits are incremental to the previously announced cost savings associated with The EXPRESSway Forward strategy.
Store Reopening Progress:
The Company took a phased approach to reopening stores in the second quarter, with the pace and staffing calibrated to mall traffic and consumer demand. As of August 26, 2020, the Company has opened 538 stores, in accordance with the latest federal and state guidelines. The Company took a number of actions to provide a safe and comfortable environment for our associates and customers:
•Trained associates on a wide range of health and safety protocols
•Implemented enhanced cleaning and sanitizing procedures across all stores
•Designated a maximum capacity for each store
•Installed plexiglass shields at all checkout counters
•Required all associates in all stores to wear face coverings
•Enabled curbside pickup at key locations
•Introduced enhanced ship from store and buy online pick-up in store (BOPIS) capabilities in the vast majority of retail stores
Third Quarter 2020 Guidance:
Due to the uncertainty of the current environment, the Company will not provide guidance for the third quarter or the year at this time, with the exception of capital expenditures, which are expected to be in the range of $20 million to $25 million for the full year 2020.

Supplemental Information - Consolidated Statements of Income
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Unaudited)
The Company supplements the reporting of its financial information determined under United States generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) with certain non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted net loss, adjusted operating loss, and adjusted diluted earnings per share. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide additional useful information to assist stockholders in understanding its financial results and assessing its prospects for future performance. Management believes adjusted net loss, adjusted operating loss, and adjusted diluted earnings per share are important indicators of the Company's business performance because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, the Company's underlying operating results, and may provide a better baseline for analyzing trends in the business. In addition, adjusted diluted earnings per share is used as a performance measure in the Company's long-term executive compensation program for purposes of determining the number of equity awards that are ultimately earned and adjusted operating loss is a metric used in our short-term cash incentive compensation plan. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. These adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for reported net loss, operating loss, or diluted earnings per share. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing the Company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and the below reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measures, provide a more complete understanding of the Company's business. Management strongly encourages investors and stockholders to review the Company's financial statements and publicly-filed reports in their entirety and not to rely on any single financial measure.
