VERA BRADLEY ANNOUNCES FISCAL THIRD QUARTER 2016 RESULTS
Third quarter net revenues from continuing operations increased 1.2% to $126.7 million
Third quarter income from continuing operations totaled $10.3 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, exceeding $0.21 in the prior year and guidance of $0.19 to $0.21 per diluted share
FORT WAYNE, Ind., December 9, 2015 - Vera Bradley, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRA) (“Vera Bradley” or the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the fiscal third quarter and nine months ended October 31, 2015.
Summary of Financial Performance for the Third Quarter
Net revenues from continuing operations totaled $126.7 million for the third quarter ended October 31, 2015, compared to $125.2 million for the third quarter ended November 1, 2014, an increase of 1.2%.
The Company posted income from continuing operations of $10.3 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the current year third quarter. In the prior year third quarter ended November 1, 2014, income from continuing operations totaled $8.7 million, or $0.21 per diluted share.
Summary of Financial Performance for the Nine Months
Net revenues from continuing operations totaled $348.5 million for the nine months ended October 31, 2015, compared to $356.4 million for the nine months ended November 1, 2014.
For the current year nine month period, the Company posted income from continuing operations of $11.8 million, or $0.30 per diluted share. These results included net after-tax charges of $4.2 million (all of which were recorded in the first quarter) comprised of:
• | $2.1 million related to the closing of its Indiana manufacturing facility, primarily related to severance and lease termination charges; |
• | $1.5 million related to other severance and restructuring charges; and |
• | $0.6 million related to an increase in income tax reserves for uncertain federal and state tax positions related to research and development tax credits. |
Excluding these charges, the Company’s income from continuing operations totaled $16.1 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the current year nine months. For the nine months ended November 1, 2014, income from continuing operations totaled $23.5 million, or $0.58 per diluted share.
Comments on the Quarter
Robert Wallstrom, Chief Executive Officer, noted, “We are pleased that better than expected revenue and gross profit percentage performance, along with disciplined expense management, drove EPS well above our guidance, despite a rather challenging retail environment.
“We are most proud of our year-over-year 540 basis point gross profit percentage improvement in the quarter, largely driven by various sourcing efficiencies, our made-for-outlet products, and reduced promotional activity. In our full-line stores and on verabradley.com, we eliminated our hyper-promotions of 60% to 70% off and pared back our promotional days by approximately 50% during the third quarter.”
Wallstrom continued, “Our better than planned revenues were generated despite this reduced promotional activity. While our overall comparable sales fell 9.5%, our comparable store sales declined just 2%, which is a meaningful improvement in the
trend from prior quarters. As expected, our e-commerce sales continued to be negatively impacted by these substantially reduced promotions.
“Customers are responding to our new product offerings. We believe we have the product, distribution, and marketing initiatives in place to achieve our fourth quarter financial plan and to continue improving our momentum into fiscal 2017.”
Third Quarter Details
Quarterly income statement numbers referenced below reflect the Company’s continuing operations.
Current year third quarter net revenues of $126.7 million exceeded the Company’s guidance of $120 million to $123 million. Prior year third quarter revenues totaled $125.2 million.
Current year third quarter Direct segment revenues totaled $84.1 million, a 7.9% increase from $77.9 million in the prior year third quarter. Comparable sales (including e-commerce) decreased 9.5% for the quarter (reflecting a 2.0% decline in comparable store sales and a 19.1% decrease in e-commerce sales), which was offset by new store growth (the Company opened 17 full-line and 13 factory outlet stores during the past 12 months). Third quarter comparable sales were negatively impacted by year-over-year declines in store and e-commerce traffic, largely resulting from reduced promotional activity.
Indirect segment revenues decreased 10.0% to $42.5 million from $47.3 million in the prior year third quarter, primarily due to lower average order size from the Company’s specialty retail accounts and a modest year-over-year reduction in the total number of specialty retail accounts.
Gross profit for the quarter totaled $73.3 million, or 57.9% of net revenues, compared to $65.8 million, or 52.5% of net revenues, in the prior year third quarter. The year-over-year gross profit percentage improvement primarily related to sourcing efficiencies (lower product costs combined with leveraged overhead costs resulting from Fall 2014 cost reductions at the Company’s domestic manufacturing facility as well as an increase in units manufactured), increased sales penetration of higher-margin made-for-outlet products, reduced promotional activity, and lower levels of liquidation sales. The gross profit percentage exceeded guidance of 56.8% to 57.2% primarily due to reduced promotional activity relative to plan and better than planned sales of higher-margin MFO product in the Company’s factory outlet stores.
SG&A expense totaled $57.0 million, or 45.0% of net revenues, in the current year third quarter, compared to $53.3 million, or 42.5% of net revenues, in the prior year third quarter. As expected, SG&A dollars increased over the prior year primarily due to investments in new stores. SG&A as a percentage of net revenues was better than the Company’s guidance of 46.5% to 47.0%, primarily due to better than expected revenues and expense management as well as a reallocation of planned marketing expenditures from the third quarter to the fourth quarter.
Operating income totaled $16.8 million, or 13.3% of net revenues, in the current year third quarter, compared to $13.6 million, or 10.9% of net revenues, in the prior year third quarter. By segment, Direct operating income was $19.3 million, or 22.9% of sales, compared to $13.9 million, or 17.8% of sales, in the prior year, and Indirect operating income was $19.1 million, or 44.8% of sales, compared to $19.2 million, or 40.6% of sales, in the prior year.
Year-to-Date Details
Year-to-date income statement numbers referenced below reflect the Company’s continuing operations and exclude the previously outlined first quarter charges related to its manufacturing facility closing, other severance and restructuring costs, and the income tax adjustment.
For the current year nine months, net revenues totaled $348.5 million compared to $356.4 million in the prior year.
Direct segment revenues for the current year nine month period totaled $238.3 million, a 4.6% increase from $227.9 million in the same prior year period. Comparable sales (including e-commerce) decreased 13.6% for the period (reflecting a 12.6% decline in comparable store sales and a 14.8% decrease in e-commerce sales), which was offset by new store growth (the Company opened 17 full-line and 13 factory outlet stores during the past 12 months). Comparable sales were negatively impacted by year-over-year declines in store and e-commerce traffic, partially resulting from reduced promotional activity.
Indirect segment revenues decreased 14.2% to $110.2 million from $128.5 million in the prior year, primarily due to lower average order size from the Company’s specialty retail accounts. In addition, there was a modest year-over-year reduction in the total number of specialty retail accounts.
Excluding the aforementioned charges, gross profit for the nine months totaled $195.0 million, or 55.9% of net revenues, compared to $189.0 million, or 53.0% of net revenues, in the prior year. The year-over-year gross profit percentage improvement primarily related to sourcing efficiencies (lower product costs combined with leveraged overhead costs resulting from Fall 2014 cost reductions at the Company’s domestic manufacturing facility as well as an increase in units manufactured), increased sales penetration of higher-margin made-for-outlet products, reduced promotional activity, and lower levels of liquidation sales.
Excluding the aforementioned charges, SG&A expense totaled $169.5 million, or 48.6% of net revenues, in the current year, compared to $154.0 million, or 43.2% of net revenues, in the prior year. As expected, SG&A dollars increased over the prior year primarily due to investments in new stores and incremental marketing.
Excluding the aforementioned charges, operating income totaled $27.2 million, or 7.8% of net revenues, for the current year nine month period, compared to $38.1 million, or 10.7% of net revenues, in the same period last year. By segment, Direct operating income was $47.3 million, or 19.9% of sales (which excluded $3.5 million of the aforementioned charges), compared to $44.7 million, or 19.6% of sales, in the prior year, and Indirect operating income was $44.9 million, or 40.8% of sales (which excluded $1.1 million of the aforementioned charges), compared to $50.6 million, or 39.4% of sales, in the prior year.
Cash and cash equivalents as of October 31, 2015 totaled $61.8 million compared to $90.3 million at the end of last year’s third quarter. The Company had no debt outstanding at quarter end. Quarter-end inventory was $118.2 million compared to $106.3 million at the end of last year’s third quarter and at the high end of guidance of $112 million to $118 million, primarily due to timing of fourth quarter receipts.
Net capital spending for the third quarter and nine months totaled $7.5 million and $22.8 million, respectively.
During the third quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $6.5 million worth of its common stock under its share repurchase plan (approximately 0.6 million shares at an average price of $10.47). These third quarter repurchases completed the balance of the Company’s $40 million share repurchase program (approximately 2.82 million shares at an average repurchase price of $14.19 over the life of the plan).
On December 8, 2015, the Company’s board of directors approved another share repurchase program authorizing up to $50 million in common stock repurchases. The new share repurchase program expires in December 2017.
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal Year 2016 Outlook
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company expects:
• | Net revenues of $151 million to $155 million compared to prior year fourth quarter revenues of $152.6 million. |
• | A gross profit percentage of 58.3% to 58.7% compared to 52.4% in the prior year fourth quarter. The planned improvement reflects sourcing efficiencies (lower product costs combined with leveraged overhead costs resulting from the closing of the Company’s domestic manufacturing facility and an increase in units manufactured), increased sales penetration of higher-margin made-for-outlet products, reduced promotional activity, and lower levels of liquidation sales. |
• | SG&A as a percentage of net revenues of 42.0% to 42.5% compared to 35.8% in the prior year fourth quarter. The increase is primarily related to incremental spending in marketing, e-commerce, and incentive compensation as well as fourth quarter asset impairment charges that are expected to be higher than the prior year. |
• | Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.40 to $0.43, based on diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of 38.1 million and an effective tax rate of 38.0%. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations totaled $0.43 in the prior year fourth quarter. |
• | Inventory of $118 million to $122 million at the end of the fiscal year, compared to $98.4 million at the end of last fiscal year end. |
For fiscal 2016, the Company expectations are as follows (which excludes the aforementioned charges):
• | Net revenues of $499 million to $503 million compared to $509.0 million last year. |
• | A gross profit percentage of approximately 56.7% compared to 52.9% last year. The planned improvement reflects sourcing efficiencies, increased sales penetration of higher-margin made-for-outlet products, reduced promotional activity, and lower levels of liquidation sales. |
• | SG&A as a percentage of net revenues of approximately 46.7% compared to 41.0% last year. The planned increase is primarily related to incremental spending in marketing, e-commerce, and incentive compensation, on a lower sales base, as well as fourth quarter asset impairment charges that are expected to be higher than the prior year. |
• | Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations of $0.80 to $0.83, based on diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of 38.8 million and an effective tax rate of 39.3%. Diluted earnings per share from continuing operations totaled $1.00 last year. |
• | Net capital spending of approximately $28 million, lower than the $31 million originally estimated due to the timing of certain expenditures delayed until fiscal 2017. |
Discontinued Operations

As a result of moving to this wholesale business model, the Company exited its direct business in Japan during the third quarter of fiscal 2015 and has accounted for it as a discontinued operation.
