At Home Group Inc. Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2017 Financial Results
PLANO, Texas, Dec. 6, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- At Home Group Inc. (NYSE: HOME), the home décor superstore, today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2017, which ended October 29, 2016.
Lee Bird, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: "We are pleased to report strong third quarter results driven by broad-based strength across both new and existing stores. Our differentiated, value-oriented product offering resonated with our customers and, combined with the progress we are making on our merchandising and marketing initiatives, drove our tenth consecutive quarter of over 20% net sales growth and our eleventh consecutive quarter of positive comparable store sales growth. This strong top line performance drove increased profitability on an adjusted basis as we generated pro forma adjusted EPS1 of $0.03 while continuing to make the appropriate investments in our business to support our planned growth."
For the Thirteen Weeks Ended October 29, 2016
- Net sales increased 22.4% to $170.7 million from $139.4 million in the thirteen weeks ended October 31, 2015 driven by the net addition of 22 new stores since the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and a comparable store sales increase of 4.2%.
- We opened 7 new stores in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 and ended the quarter with 122 stores in 30 states. This represents a 22.0% increase in total stores since the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
- Gross profit increased 24.0% to $51.4 million from $41.4 million in the prior year. Gross margin increased 40 basis points to 30.1% primarily due to product margin improvement, partially offset by costs associated with investments in incremental inventory and increased occupancy costs resulting from the sale-leaseback transactions that occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2017.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") increased 26.9% to $45.8 million from $36.1 million in the prior year period. The increase is primarily driven by the net addition of 22 stores since the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2016, $3.4 million of stock-based compensation and transaction costs associated with our initial public offering ("IPO") and corporate and strategic investments to support our growth strategies, including labor cost associated with the inflow of incremental inventory and a $1.5 million increase in brand advertising to continue driving consumer awareness of the At Home brand.
- Adjusted SG&A1, which excludes nonrecurring costs incurred in conjunction with our IPO, increased 17.9% to $42.4 million and 24.8% of net sales compared to $35.9 million and 25.8% of net sales in the third quarter of last year.
- Operating income was $4.5 million compared to $4.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Operating margin decreased 60 basis points to 2.7%, primarily driven by IPO-related costs and our investments in brand advertising partially offset by improvement in gross margin.
- Adjusted operating income1 increased 65.6% to $7.9 million and 4.7% of net sales compared to $4.8 million and 3.4% of net sales in the same quarter last year.
- Interest expense decreased to $5.2 million from $8.4 million in the same quarter last year due to the repayment in full of our $130.0 million second lien term loan facility (the "Second Lien Facility") in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 utilizing net proceeds from our IPO.
- Income tax benefit was $1.5 million based on an effective tax rate of 44.8% compared to expense of $7.1 million and an effective tax rate of (187.9)% in the same quarter of the prior year. The prior year effective tax rate was primarily impacted by changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
- Net loss in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 was $1.9 million, which included a $2.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt related to the repayment of our Second Lien Facility. We recognized a net loss of $10.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
- Pro forma adjusted net income1 was $1.8 million compared to a pro forma adjusted net loss of $0.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
- EPS was $(0.03) compared to $(0.21) in the third quarter of fiscal 2016. Pro forma adjusted EPS1 was $0.03 compared to $(0.01) in the third quarter of fiscal 2016.
- Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 20.1% to $22.6 million for the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2016.
For the Thirty-nine Weeks Ended October 29, 2016
- Net sales increased 21.6% to $531.1 million from $436.7 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2015, driven by the net addition of 22 new stores since the third quarter of fiscal 2016 and a comparable store sales increase of 2.3% over the prior year period.
- Gross profit increased 21.4% to $171.8 million year to date from $141.5 million in the comparable prior year period. Gross margin decreased 10 basis points to 32.3% due to costs associated with investments in incremental inventory and increased occupancy costs as a result of our third quarter fiscal 2017 and fiscal 2016 sale-leaseback transactions.
- SG&A increased 28.8% to $125.4 million from $97.4 million in the same period of fiscal 2016. The increase is primarily driven by the net addition of 22 stores, including a $2.2 million increase in preopening costs due to the number and timing of new store openings, $3.4 million of stock-based compensation and transaction costs associated with our IPO as well as corporate and strategic investments to support our growth strategies, including labor cost associated with the inflow of incremental inventory and a $5.0 million increase in brand advertising to continue driving consumer awareness of the At Home brand.
- Adjusted SG&A1, which excludes nonrecurring costs incurred in conjunction with our IPO, increased 25.7% to $122.0 million and 23.0% of net sales compared to $97.1 million and 22.2% of net sales through the third quarter of last year.
- Operating income was $43.4 million year to date compared to $42.5 million in the same period of fiscal 2016. Operating margin decreased 150 basis points to 8.2%, primarily driven by IPO-related costs, an increase in preopening expenses and our investments in brand advertising.
- Adjusted operating income1 increased 9.4% to $46.8 million and 8.8% of net sales year to date compared to $42.8 million and 9.8% of net sales in the same period of fiscal 2016.
- Interest expense decreased to $21.9 million from $28.2 million in the comparable period of the prior year due to the June 2015 refinancing of our 10.75% senior secured notes as well as the repayment in full of our $130.0 million Second Lien Facility in the third quarter of fiscal 2017 utilizing net proceeds from our IPO.
- Income tax expense was $7.0 million based on an effective tax rate of 37.2% in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2017 as compared to $33.5 million and an effective tax rate of (154.0)% in the prior year period. The prior year effective tax rate was primarily impacted by changes in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
- Net income was $11.8 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016, which included a $2.7 million loss on the extinguishment of debt in the third quarter. This compares to a net loss of $55.2 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2015, which included a $36.0 million loss on the extinguishment of debt in the second quarter.
- Pro forma adjusted net income1 was $19.1 million year to date compared to $16.8 million in the comparable prior year period.
- EPS was $0.21 year to date compared to $(1.08) in the comparable fiscal 2016 period. Pro forma adjusted EPS1 was $0.31 year to date versus $0.27 in the comparable prior year period.
- Adjusted EBITDA1 increased 14.3% to $93.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016.
Initial Public Offering
In August 2016 we completed our IPO, using substantially all of the net proceeds to repay in full our $130.0 million Second Lien Facility. The repayment resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt in the amount of $2.7 million, which was recognized in the third quarter of fiscal 2017.
Improved Credit Rating
On August 31, 2016, Moody's Investor Service upgraded At Home Holding III Inc.'s Corporate Family Rating to "B1" from "B2". On September 9, 2016, S&P Global Ratings raised our corporate credit rating to "B" from "B -". Both rating agencies cited our reduced leverage as a result of the repayment of our Second Lien Facility with IPO proceeds, as well as their expectations that continued solid operating performance due to new unit expansion and positive comparable store sales growth will support further credit metric improvement.
Sale-leaseback Transactions
In August 2016, we entered into a sale-leaseback transaction pursuant to which we sold four properties for a total of $32.6 million. Contemporaneously with the closing of the sale, we entered into a lease pursuant to which we leased back the properties for cumulative initial annual rent of $2.2 million, subject to annual escalations. Approximately $3.7 million of the proceeds from the sale were used to pay off a note payable on one of the properties.
In September 2016, we entered into a sale-leaseback transaction pursuant to which we sold three properties for a total of $30.6 million. Contemporaneously with the closing of the sale, we entered into a lease pursuant to which we leased back the properties for cumulative initial annual rent of $2.1 million, subject to annual escalations.
Balance Sheet Highlights as of October 29, 2016
- Total liquidity (cash plus $124.0 million of availability under our revolving credit facility) was $131.7 million.
- Total debt was $302.4 million compared to $439.2 million as of October 31, 2015. There was $87.0 million outstanding under our revolving credit facility as of October 29, 2016.
Fiscal 2017 Outlook & Key Assumptions
Judd Nystrom, Chief Financial Officer, stated: "As a result of our strong third quarter performance and fourth quarter momentum, we are increasing our fiscal 2017 top and bottom line expectations. For the full year, we now expect to achieve 20% to 22% net sales growth, an approximately six-fold increase in net income, and a 34% to 40% increase in pro forma adjusted net income." Below is an overview of our outlook for selected fiscal 2017 financial data and related assumptions:
- Net sales are expected to be in a range of $750 million to $758 million. Our net sales growth outlook is based on 23 net new store openings and an assumed comparable store sales increase of 2.5% to 3.0%.
- Net income is expected to be in a range of $24.5 million to $26 million, with pro forma adjusted net income1 in a range of $34.0 million to $35.5 million2, based on an assumed 38.5% annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2017 and annual interest expense of approximately $27 million.
- EPS is expected to be in a range of $0.43 to $0.46, with pro forma adjusted EPS1 in a range of $0.54 to $0.57, based on assumed diluted weighted average shares outstanding of approximately 56.5 million and pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding1 of approximately 62.5 million, respectively.
- Gross capital expenditures are expected to be in a range of $138 million to $148 million, or $75 million to $85 million net of assumed sale-leaseback proceeds.

Non-GAAP Measures
Certain financial measures presented in this release, such as comparable store sales, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Net Income, pro forma adjusted net income, pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding, pro forma adjusted EPS and Store-level Adjusted EBITDA, are not recognized under GAAP.
We present comparable store sales, which is not a recognized financial measure under GAAP, because it allows us to evaluate how our store base is performing by measuring the change in period-over-period net sales in stores that have been open for the applicable period. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Store-level Adjusted EBITDA, which are not recognized financial measures under GAAP, because we believe they assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance, such as interest, depreciation, amortization, loss on extinguishment of debt and taxes, as well as costs related to new store openings, which are incurred on a limited basis with respect to any particular store when opened and are not indicative of ongoing core operating performance. We present adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Net Income, pro forma adjusted net income, pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding and pro forma adjusted EPS, which are not recognized financial measures under GAAP, because we believe investors' understanding of our operating performance is enhanced by the disclosure of selling, general and administrative expenses, operating income, net income, diluted weighted average shares outstanding and earnings per diluted share adjusted for nonrecurring charges associated with events such as our IPO and refinancing transactions.
You are encouraged to evaluate each of these adjustments and the reasons we consider them appropriate for supplemental analysis. In evaluating our non-GAAP measures, you should be aware that in the future we may incur expenses that are the same as or similar to some of the adjustments in such presentation. Our presentation of non-GAAP financial measures should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. There can be no assurance that we will not modify the presentation of our non-GAAP financial measures in the future, and any such modification may be material. In addition, comparable store sales, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Net Income, pro forma adjusted net income, pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding, pro forma adjusted EPS and Store-level Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Comparable store sales, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Net Income, pro forma adjusted net income, pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding, pro forma adjusted EPS and Store-level Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. We compensate for these limitations by relying primarily on our GAAP results and using comparable store sales, Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted SG&A, adjusted operating income, Adjusted Net Income, pro forma adjusted net income, pro forma diluted weighted average shares outstanding, pro forma adjusted EPS and Store-level Adjusted EBITDA only as supplemental information.

(a) | Non-cash stock-based compensation associated with a special one-time initial public offering bonus grant to senior executives, which we do not consider in our evaluation of our ongoing performance.

(b) | Charges incurred in connection with our initial public offering, which we do not expect to recur and do not consider in our evaluation of our ongoing performance. |
(c) | Represents the tax impact associated with the adjusted expenses utilizing the effective tax rate in effect during the periods presented. The effective tax rate for the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015 was 44.8% and (187.9)%, respectively. The effective tax rate for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015 was 37.2% and (154.0)%, respectively. |

(f) | Adjusts interest expense for the June 5, 2015 refinancing of our $360.0 million 10.75% Senior Secured Notes with $430.0 million of indebtedness under our first and second lien term loan facilities. |
(g) | Adjusts stated interest expense for use of IPO proceeds for repayment in full of the $130.0 million of principal amount of indebtedness under our second lien term loan facility, which occurred in the third quarter of fiscal 2017. |

(a) | Includes the portion of depreciation and amortization expenses that are classified as cost of sales in our consolidated statements of operations. | ||
(b) | Primarily consists of (i) consulting and other professional fees with respect to tax consulting services as well as completed projects to enhance our accounting and finance capabilities and other public company readiness initiatives, of $1.3 million and $0.5 million during the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively, and $2.6 million and $2.0 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively and (ii) litigation settlement charges and related legal fees for certain claims and legal costs for other matters relating to events that arose prior to our acquisition by our Sponsors that have concluded in the amounts of $(0.4) million for the thirteen weeks ended October 31, 2015 and $0.1 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2015. Adjustments related to such items for the other periods presented were not material. | ||
(c) | Non-capital expenditures associated with opening new stores, including marketing and advertising, labor and cash occupancy expenses. We anticipate that we will continue to incur cash costs as we open new stores in the future. We opened seven and eight new stores during the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively, and 23 and 20 new stores during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively. | ||
(d) | Primarily reflects employee recruiting and relocation costs in connection with the build-out of our management team. | ||
(e) | Reflects management fees paid to our Sponsors in accordance with our management agreement. In connection with our initial public offering, the management agreement was terminated on August 3, 2016 and our Sponsors will no longer receive management fees from us. | ||
(f) | Non-cash stock-based compensation related to the ongoing equity incentive program that we have in place to incentivize and retain management. | ||
(g) | Non-cash stock-based compensation associated with a special one-time initial public offering bonus grant to senior executives, which we do not consider in our evaluation of our ongoing performance. The grant was made in addition to the ongoing equity incentive program that we have in place to incentivize and retain management and was made to reward certain senior executives for historical performance and allow them to benefit from future successful outcomes for our Sponsors. | ||
(h) | Consists of the non-cash portion of rent, which reflects (i) the extent to which our GAAP straight-line rent expense recognized exceeds or is less than our cash rent payments, partially offset by (ii) the amortization of deferred gains on sale-leaseback transactions that are recognized to rent expense on a straight-line basis through the applicable lease term. The offsetting amounts relating to the amortization of deferred gains on sale-leaseback transactions were $1.4 million and $0.8 million during the thirteen weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively, and $3.3 million and $2.2 million during the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016 and October 31, 2015, respectively. The GAAP straight-line rent expense adjustment can vary depending on the average age of our lease portfolio, which has been impacted by our significant growth over the last four fiscal years. For newer leases, our rent expense recognized typically exceeds our cash rent payments while for more mature leases, rent expense recognized is typically less than our cash rent payments. | ||
(i) | Other adjustments include amounts our management believes are not representative of our ongoing operations, including: | ||
• | for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 29, 2016, a loss of $0.3 million recognized on the sale of land in connection with the expansion of our distribution center; and | ||
• | for the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2015, expenses incurred for a store closure in the aggregate amount of $0.5 million and a gain of $(1.8) million recognized on the sale of our property in Houston, Texas. | ||
(j) | Reflects corporate overhead expenses, which are not directly related to the profitability of our stores, to facilitate comparisons of store operating performance as we do not consider these corporate overhead expenses when evaluating the ongoing performance of our stores from period to period. Corporate overhead expenses, which are a component of selling, general and administrative expenses, are comprised of various home office general and administrative expenses such as payroll expenses, occupancy costs, marketing and advertising, and consulting and professional fees. See our discussion of the changes in selling, general and administrative expenses presented in "—Results of Operations". Store-level Adjusted EBITDA should not be used as a substitute for consolidated measures of profitability or performance because it does not reflect corporate overhead expenses that are necessary to allow us to effectively operate our stores and generate Store-level Adjusted EBITDA. We anticipate that we will continue to incur corporate overhead expenses in future periods. | ||
