See accompanying Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. -5- 6 BED BATH & BEYOND INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1) BASIS OF PRESENTATION The accompanying consolidated financial statements, except for the February 28, 1998 consolidated balance sheet, have been prepared without audit. In the opinion of Management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting of only normal recurring accruals) necessary to present fairly the financial position of Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of May 30, 1998 and February 28, 1998 and the results of their operations and their cash flows for the three months ended May 30, 1998 and May 31, 1997, respectively. Because of the seasonality of the specialty retailing business, operating results of the Company on a quarterly basis may not be indicative of operating results for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the requirements for Form 10-Q and consequently do not include all the disclosures normally required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to Bed Bath & Beyond Inc.'s Annual Report for the fiscal year ended February 28, 1998 for additional disclosures, including a summary of the Company's significant accounting policies. 2) SUBSEQUENT EVENTS In June 1998, the Board of Directors approved a two-for-one stock split of the Company's common stock to be effected in the form of a stock dividend. The stock dividend will be distributed on July 31, 1998, to shareholders of record on July 10, 1998. Accordingly, all shareholders' equity, share and per share amounts for all periods presented have been retroactively adjusted to give effect to the stock split. In June 1998, the Company's Certificate of Incorporation was amended to increase the number of authorized shares of common stock (par value $.01 per share) from 150,000,000 shares to 350,000,000 shares. -6- 7 MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months May 30, 1998 vs. Three Months May 31, 1997 Net sales for the first quarter ended May 30, 1998 were $269.6 million, an increase of $55.9 million or approximately 26.2% over net sales of $213.7 million for the corresponding quarter last year. Approximately 88.3% of the increase was attributable to new store net sales. The increase in comparable store net sales in the first quarter of 1998 was 3.3%. The increase in comparable net sales reflects a number of factors, including but not limited to, the continued consumer acceptance of the Company's merchandise offerings and customer service and the generally favorable retailing environment. Approximately 55% and 45% of net sales for the first quarter were attributable to sales of domestics merchandise and home furnishings merchandise, respectively. Gross profit for the first quarter of 1998 was $110.2 million or 40.9% of net sales compared with $87.4 million or 40.9% of net sales during the first quarter of 1997. Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $89.4 million in the first quarter of 1998 compared with $71.5 million in the same quarter last year and as a percentage of net sales were 33.2% and 33.5%, respectively. The decrease in SG&A, as a percentage of net sales, primarily reflects a relative decrease in costs associated with new store openings which was partially offset by a relative increase in occupancy costs. Operating profit in the first quarter of 1998 increased to $20.7 million from $15.8 million in the first quarter of 1997, reflecting primarily the increase in net sales which was partially offset by increases in cost of sales and SG&A. EXPANSION PROGRAM The Company is engaged in an ongoing expansion program involving the opening of new stores in both existing and new markets and the expansion or replacement of existing stores with larger stores. As a result of this program, the total number of stores has increased to 149 stores at the end of the first quarter of 1998 compared with 116 stores at the end of the corresponding quarter last year. Total square footage grew to 6,111,000 square feet at the end of the first quarter of 1998, from 4,644,000 square feet at the end of the first quarter of last year. During the first quarter of fiscal 1998, the Company opened eight new stores and expanded one existing unit resulting in an aggregate addition of 344,000 square feet to total store space. The Company anticipates opening approximately 32 additional stores and expanding several existing stores by the end of the fiscal year, aggregating approximately 1,400,000 square feet of store space. -7- 8 FINANCIAL CONDITION Total assets at May 30, 1998 were $518.0 million compared with $458.3 million at February 28, 1998, an increase of $59.7 million. Of the total increase, $53.2 million represented an increase in current assets and $6.5 million represented an increase in non-current assets. The increase in current assets was primarily attributable to an increase in merchandise inventories, which resulted from new store space and, to a lesser extent, the changes in merchandising mix. Total liabilities at May 30, 1998 were $203.9 million compared with $162.9 million at February 28, 1998, an increase of $41.0 million. The increase was primarily attributable to a $39.0 million increase in accounts payable (resulting from an increase in inventories) and a $1.8 million increase in accrued expenses and other current liabilities. Shareholders' equity was $314.1 million at May 30, 1998 compared with $295.4 million at February 28, 1998. The increase primarily reflects net earnings for the first three months of fiscal 1998 and additional paid-in capital from the exercise of stock options.
