Fiscal 2021 Third Quarter Operating Results

Third quarter consolidated net sales were $1.02 billion, an increase of 45.0%, as compared to the prior year with a same store sales increase of 44.7%, primarily driven by the favorable impact in the U.S. from improving consumer confidence and the easing of COVID-19 restrictions across international territories. Foreign currency translation had a favorable impact of approximately 260 basis points on reported sales and the Company operated 84 fewer stores compared to the prior year. Global e-commerce sales were $71 million or 7.0% of net sales.

Consolidated gross profit for the third quarter was $514.4 million compared to $321.8 million in the prior year, an increase of 59.8%. Consolidated gross margin was 50.3%, an increase of 470 basis points compared to 45.6% in the prior year, driven primarily by a higher gross margin at Sally Beauty Supply, partially offset by a lower gross margin at Beauty Systems Group.

Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses totaled $386.5 million, up $71.9 million compared to the prior year, driven primarily by the impact of the prior year’s savings from furloughed employees, rent abatements and reduced advertising expense related to the shut down of global store operations from COVID-19. As a percentage of sales, SG&A expenses were 37.8% compared to 44.6% in the prior year.

GAAP operating earnings and operating margin in the third quarter were $127.4 million and 12.5%, respectively, compared to $1.4 million and 0.2%, respectively, in the prior year. Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin, excluding the Company’s previously announced restructuring efforts and COVID-19 related expenses in both years, increased to $128.7 million and 12.6%, respectively, compared to $16.0 million and 2.3%, respectively, in the prior year.

GAAP net earnings in the third quarter were $76.2 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $23.5 million, or $0.21 per diluted share in the prior year. Adjusted Net Earnings were $78.0 million, or $0.68 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $12.7 million, or $0.11 per diluted share in the prior year, which represents an increase of 718%. Adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter was $156.5 million, an increase of 113% compared to the prior year, and Adjusted EBITDA Margin was 15.3%, an increase of 490 basis points compared to the prior year.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

During the third quarter, the Company utilized excess cash to reduce its debt levels by $205 million by fully repaying the outstanding balance of $197 million of its 5.50% senior unsecured notes due 2023 and paying down an additional $8 million of its floating rate term loan. At June 30, 2021, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $270 million and a zero balance outstanding under its asset-based revolving line of credit. Additionally, the Company ended the quarter with a net debt leverage ratio of 1.90x. For comparison purposes, the leverage ratio, as defined in our loan agreements where the impact of balance sheet cash and cash equivalents is capped at $100 million for net debt calculation purposes, was 2.19x.

In May 2021, the Company extended the maturity on its asset-based revolving line of credit agreement by five years to May 2026. The new agreement returned the pricing and terms back to pre-COVID levels and right-sized the facility to $500 million.

Third quarter cash flow from operations totaled $86.2 million, capital expenditures totaled $17.8 million and Operating Free Cash Flow totaled $68.4 million.

The Sally Beauty businesses in the U.S. and Canada represented 79% of the segment sales for the quarter and had a same store sales increase of 35.2%.

  • Gross margin increased by 920 basis points to 57.9%, with the Sally Beauty business in the U.S. and Canada delivering gross margin of 60.8%.

Readers are cautioned not to place undue reliance on forward-looking statements as such statements speak only as of the date they were made. Any forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties that could cause actual events or results to differ materially from the events or results described in the forward-looking statements, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties related to COVID-19 and those described in our filings with the Securities and Exchange Commission, including our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This news release and the schedules hereto include the following financial measures that have not been calculated in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States, or GAAP, and are therefore referred to as non-GAAP financial measures: (1) Adjusted Gross Margin; (2) Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses; (3) Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA Margin; (4) Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin; (5) Adjusted Net Earnings; (6) Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share; and (7) Operating Free Cash Flow. We have provided definitions below for these non-GAAP financial measures and have provided tables in the schedules hereto to reconcile these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Gross Margin – We define the measure Adjusted Gross Margin as GAAP gross margin excluding the write-down of COVID-19 related personal protective equipment inventory for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses – We define the measure Adjusted Selling, General and Administrative Expenses as GAAP selling, general and administrative expenses excluding COVID-19 net expenses for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted EBITDA and EBITDA Margin – We define the measure Adjusted EBITDA as GAAP net earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest expense, income taxes, share-based compensation, costs related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring plans, COVID-19 related net expenses, costs related to the non-cash write down of inventory, and impairment charges related to long-lived assets and operating lease assets not included in restructuring for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA Margin is Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted Operating Earnings and Operating Margin – Adjusted operating earnings are GAAP operating earnings that exclude costs related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring plans and net expenses related to COVID-19 for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Margin is Adjusted Operating Earnings as a percentage of net sales.

Adjusted Net Earnings – Adjusted net earnings is GAAP net earnings that exclude tax-effected costs related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring plans and tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19 for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Adjusted Diluted Net Earnings Per Share – Adjusted diluted net earnings per share is GAAP diluted earnings per share that exclude tax-effected costs related to the Company’s previously announced restructuring plans and tax-effected net expenses related to COVID-19 for the relevant time periods as indicated in the accompanying non-GAAP reconciliations to the comparable GAAP financial measures.

Operating Free Cash Flow – We define the measure Operating Free Cash Flow as GAAP net cash provided by operating activities less payments for capital expenditures (net). We believe Operating Free Cash Flow is an important liquidity measure that provides useful information to investors about the amount of cash generated from operations after taking into account payments for capital expenditures (net).

We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide valuable information regarding our earnings and business trends by excluding specific items that we believe are not indicative of the ongoing operating results of our businesses; providing a useful way for investors to make a comparison of our performance over time and against other companies in our industry.

We have provided these non-GAAP financial measures as supplemental information to our GAAP financial measures and believe these non-GAAP measures provide investors with additional meaningful financial information regarding our operating performance and cash flows. Our management and Board of Directors also use these non-GAAP measures as supplemental measures to evaluate our businesses and the performance of management, including the determination of performance-based compensation, to make operating and strategic decisions, and to allocate financial resources. We believe that these non-GAAP measures also provide meaningful information for investors and securities analysts to evaluate our historical and prospective financial performance. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. Furthermore, the non-GAAP measures presented by us may not be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies.

For the purpose of calculating our same store sales metrics, we compare the current period sales for stores open for 14 months or longer as of the last day of a month with the sales for these stores for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Our same store sales are calculated in constant U.S. dollars and include e-commerce sales, but do not generally include the sales from stores relocated until 14 months after the relocation. The sales from stores acquired are excluded from our same store sales calculation until 14 months after the acquisition.
