Issues Fiscal 2020 Outlook

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (March 22, 2019) – Hibbett Sports, Inc. (NASDAQ/GS: HIBB), an athletic specialty retailer, today provided the following business updates:

Note:  The fourth quarter and Fiscal 2019 ended on February 2, 2019, included 13 weeks of results in the fourth quarter and 52 weeks of results in Fiscal 2019.  The fourth quarter and Fiscal 2018 ended on February 3, 2018, included 14 weeks of results in the fourth quarter and 53 weeks of results in Fiscal 2018.

Fourth Quarter Results

Net sales for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, increased 14.7% to $306.0 million (including $49.1 million for City Gear), compared with $266.7 million for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018, (including $13.5 million for the 53rd week).  Comparable store sales increased 3.8% on a 13-week to 13-week basis.  Comparable store sales will not include sales from City Gear until the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2020.  E-commerce sales represented 10.6% of total sales for the fourth quarter.

Gross margin was 31.1% of net sales for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, compared with 31.5% for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018.  The decrease was mainly due to a $1.9 million expense incurred to amortize an inventory step-up value related to the City Gear acquisition.  Excluding acquisition costs, non-GAAP gross margin was 31.7% of net sales for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019.  The fourth quarter of Fiscal 2018 included a non-recurring charge $0.9 million to establish a reserve against the Company’s Team Division inventory as a result of selling the business.

Store operating, selling and administrative expenses were 25.5% of net sales for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, compared with 23.2% of net sales for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018.  The increase was mainly due to $2.8 million in non-recurring costs related to the acquisition of City Gear, and $0.3 million in non-recurring severance costs due to the elimination of 30 positions in the field organization and corporate office in order to streamline operations.  Excluding non-recurring costs, non-GAAP store operating, selling and administrative expenses were 24.5% of net sales for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019.  The fourth quarter of Fiscal 2018 included a non-recurring gain of $3.1 million due to the sale of the Company’s Team Division.

Net income for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, was $6.6 million compared with net income of $9.7 million for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018.  Excluding non-recurring costs, non-GAAP net income for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, was $10.5 million.  Earnings per diluted share was $0.36 for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019, compared with earnings per diluted share of $0.51 for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018.  Excluding non-recurring costs, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share was $0.57 for the 13-week period ended February 2, 2019.  Earnings per diluted share for the 14-week period ended February 3, 2018, included a non-recurring gain of $0.07 per diluted share due to the sale of the Company’s Team Division, and a benefit of $0.08 per diluted share due to the 53rd week in Fiscal 2018.

Jeff Rosenthal, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are quite pleased with the fourth quarter results, which was driven by significant progress on our strategic initiatives along with compelling assortments from our key vendors.  Our omni-channel initiative continues to deliver strong results, with online sales increasing 60% to 10.6% of total sales in the quarter.  We are seeing significant improvement in web traffic and good traction with Buy Online, Pickup in Store (BOPIS) and improvements to our mobile app.  At the same time, we continue to improve the productivity of our store base by closing unproductive stores and positioning the City Gear banner to drive sales for the fashion consumer.”

For the quarter, Hibbett acquired 136 City Gear stores, opened 12 new stores (including 2 City Gear stores), expanded one high-performing store, and closed 27 underperforming stores bringing the store base to 1,163 in 35 states as of February 2, 2019.

Strategic Realignment – Accelerated Store Closure Plan

As the retail environment continues to evolve, the Company is focused on improving the productivity of the store base while continuing to grow its omni-channel business to serve customers where and when they want to shop.  As a result, subsequent to the year ended February 2, 2019, the Company has decided to close approximately 95 Hibbett stores in Fiscal 2020, while opening 10 to15 new Hibbett and City Gear stores.  This is expected to result in non-recurring impairment and store closure charges in the range of $0.15 to $0.20 per diluted share in Fiscal 2020.  Associates will be extended opportunities to transition to similar positions at other Hibbett stores wherever possible.

Jeff Rosenthal, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “While these decisions are never easy, we believe it is in the best interest of our shareholders as we continue to evolve the business and adapt to changing shopping patterns.  Going forward, we will continue to invest in our business with the goal of providing a differentiated product assortment and customer experience that aligns with today’s consumer.”

Fiscal 2019 Results

Net sales for the 52-week period ended February 2, 2019, increased 4.2% to $1.0 billion compared with $968.2 million for the 53-week period ended February 3, 2018.  Comparable store sales increased 2.2% on a 52-week to 52-week basis.

Gross margin was 32.6% of net sales for the 52-week period ended February 2, 2019, compared with 32.3% for the 53-week period ended February 3, 2018.  Excluding acquisition expenses related to the $1.9 million amortization of an inventory step-up value, non-GAAP gross margin was 32.8% for the 52-week period ended February 2, 2019.  The 53-week period ended February 3, 2018, included a $0.9 million non-recurring charge to establish a reserve against the Company’s Team Division inventory as a result of selling the business.

About Non-GAAP Financial Measures

This press release includes certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted net income, earnings per share, gross margin and SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales.  Management believes that non-GAAP net income, earnings per share, gross margin and SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales, which exclude the effects of non-recurring expenses related to the acquisition of City Gear and our accelerated store closure plan, are useful measures for providing more accurate comparisons of our current financial results to historical operations, forward looking guidance and the financial results of peer companies.  The non-recurring costs related to the acquisition of City Gear include amortization of inventory step-up value and professional service fees and expenses consisting primarily of investment banking, legal and accounting fees and expenses.  In future periods, such acquisition-related costs may include one or more of the following categories of expenses: (i) transition and integration costs, (ii) professional service fees and expenses and (iii) acquisition-related adjustments.  Future non-recurring costs related to the accelerated store closure plan may include: (i) lease and equipment impairment costs, (ii) third party liquidation fees, (iii) store exit costs, and (iv) residual lease costs.

While our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures as a tool to enhance their ability to assess certain aspects of our financial performance, our management does not consider these measures to be a substitute for, or superior to, the information provided by GAAP financial statements.  Consistent with this approach, we believe that disclosing non-GAAP financial measures to the readers of our financial statements provides such readers with useful supplemental data that, while not a substitute for GAAP financial statements, allows for greater transparency in the review of our financial and operational performance.  It should be noted as well that our non-GAAP information may be different from the non-GAAP information provided by other companies.

For a reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, please see the sections titled “GAAP to Non-GAAP Reconciliation” that accompany this press release.
