DocumentTHE LOVESAC COMPANY REPORTS THIRD QUARTER FISCAL 2022 FINANCIAL RESULTS
Strong Momentum Across Channels Drives 56.1% Growth in Net Sales
Comparable Sales Increased 47.1% on Top of 53.5% in the Prior Year Period
Net Income Improved 11% to $2.8 million
Third Quarter Adjusted EBITDA1 of $5.8 million
STAMFORD, Conn., December 8, 2021 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Lovesac Company (Nasdaq: LOVE) (“Lovesac” or the “Company”) today announced financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2022, which ended October 31, 2021.
Shawn Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “Our results for the third quarter reflect strong, sustainable and profitable growth across all sales channels including, most notably, an increase in showroom sales of nearly 70% and a nearly 40% increase for internet sales. This performance is a testament to the team’s exceptional execution and affirms that our personalized shopping experience, whether in person, online or directly to customers' homes through our recently launched Mobile Concierge service, is resonating and meeting customers where they prefer to shop. We generated strong top-line growth against the backdrop of macro supply chain disruption that reveals some of the many advantages of our unique business model with a concentrated sku count and redundant manufacturing spread across multiple geographies, delivering customers’ orders within days.”
Mr. Nelson continued, “Operationally, we made good progress against our strategic priorities including the much-anticipated launch of our new Stealthtech embedded surround sound system, which is reverse-compatible with all of the designed-for-life Sactionals we have sold to-date. The results of this approach to achieving true sustainability will be highlighted in our first ever formal ESG report being published later this month. As we look to the final quarter of the year, we are pleased with our strong start to the all-important holiday season and are confident in our in-stock position to meet fourth quarter demand. We look forward to delivering an elevated customer experience across channels during the busiest time of year and closing out fiscal 2022.”

3 Comparable showroom sales reflect transactions through the point of sale and not necessarily product that has shipped to the customer. Product that has shipped to the customer is included in Net Sales. Showrooms were closed as required by local and state laws as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic effective March 18, 2020. As of the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, all showrooms had fully reopened to the walk-in phase, and remain open. We are abiding by federal, state and local guidelines with respect to the operating status of our showrooms.
Highlights for the Quarter Ended October 31, 2021:
•The net sales increase of 56.1% was due to higher sales volume and lower promotional discounting, driving an increase in showroom sales of 67.8% which include mobile concierges and kiosk, an increase in internet sales of 38.2%, and an increase of 52.7% in our “Other” channel which include pop-up-shops, shop-in-shops, and sales related to inventory barter transactions. The increase in showroom sales was driven by an increase of 53.3% in comparable showroom sales related to a very strong Labor Day campaign with lower discounting and the addition of 28 new showrooms. Internet sales also increased due to the same promotional campaign. The increase in sales in our “Other” channel was principally due to higher productivity of our temporary online pop-up-shop on Costco.com compared to the prior year period.
•Gross profit increased $17.3 million, or 41.9%, to $58.6 million in the thirteen weeks ended October 31, 2021 from $41.3 million in the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2020. Gross margin decreased 510 basis points to 50.2% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended October 31, 2021 from 55.3% of net sales in the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2020 primarily driven by an increase of approximately 748 basis points in total distribution and related tariff expenses partially offset by an improvement of 238 basis points in product margin. The increase in total distribution and related tariff expenses over the prior year period is principally related to a 953 basis point increase in inbound container freight costs and increased tariffs related to higher product sourcing from China, partially offset by a 205 basis point improvement due to higher leverage of warehousing and outbound freight costs. The product margin rate improvement is due to lower promotional discounting and continuing vendor negotiations to assist with the mitigation of tariffs.
•SG&A expense as a percent of net sales decreased by 207 basis points due to higher leverage within infrastructure investments, equity-based compensation, insurance, rent, and selling related expenses, partially offset by deleverage in employment costs and travel. The deleverage in certain expenses relate to the investments we are making into the business that were put on hold in the prior year period due to COVID-19 financial resilience measures.
•Advertising and marketing expense increased 44.3% due to continued investments in marketing spend to support our sales growth. As a percent of net sales, advertising and marketing decreased by 111 basis points due to improved performance in our media activities driving higher sales volume at lower promotional discounting.
•Operating income was $3.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to operating income of $2.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Operating margin was 2.5% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to 3.4% of net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
•Net income was $2.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared to net income of $2.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Highlights for the Year-to-date Period ended October 31, 2021:
•The net sales increase of 58.1% was due to higher sales volume and lower promotional discounting, driving an increase in showroom sales of 150.0% which include mobile concierge and kiosk, and an increase of 83.0% in our “Other” channel which include pop-up-shops, shop-in-shops, and sales related to inventory barter transactions partially offset by a decrease in internet sales of 11.4%. The increase in showroom sales was driven by an increase of 133.0% in comparable showroom sales with all showroom locations fully open in the current period versus the limited showroom operations in the prior year period due to COVID-19. Sales in our “Other” channel principally increased due to prior year closures of all pop-up-shop and shop-in-shop locations due to COVID-19 combined with 2 additional temporary online pop-up-shops on Costco.com. The decline in internet sales reflected the channel shift back to our showrooms that are now fully reopened.
•Gross profit increased $64.1 million, or 64.3%, to $163.7 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2021 from $99.6 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020. Gross margin increased 200 basis points to 54.2% of net sales in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2021 from 52.2% of net sales in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020 primarily driven by an increase of approximately 367 basis points in product margin partially offset by an increase of 167 basis points in total distribution and related tariff expenses. The product margin rate improvement is due to lower promotional discounting and continuing vendor negotiations to assist with the mitigation of tariffs. The increase in total distribution and related tariff expenses over the prior year period is principally related to an 822 basis point increase in inbound container freight costs and increased tariffs related to higher product sourcing from China, partially offset by a 655 basis point improvement due to higher leverage of warehousing and outbound freight costs.
•SG&A expense as a percent of net sales decreased by 4.8% primarily due to higher leverage within infrastructure investments, selling related expenses, rent, equity-based compensation and insurance, partially offset by deleverage in employment costs and travel. The deleverage in certain expenses relate to the investments we are making into the business that were put on hold in the prior year period due to COVID-19 financial resilience measures.
•Advertising and marketing expense increased 50.2% due to the reinstatement of marketing spend with showroom locations fully open in the current period versus the limited showroom operations in the prior year period due to COVID-19. As a percent of net sales, advertising and marketing decreased by 69 basis points due to improved performance in our media activities driving higher sales volume at lower promotional discounting.
•Operating income was $14.2 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2021 compared to an operating loss of $6.9 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020. Operating margin was 4.7% of net sales in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2021 compared to (3.6%) of net sales in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020.
•Net income was $13.3 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended October 31, 2021 compared to net loss of $7.0 million in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2020.
Other Financial Highlights as of October 31, 2021:
•The cash and cash equivalents balance as of October 31, 2021 was $47.9 million as compared to $47.7 million as of November 1, 2020. There was no balance on the Company’s line of credit as of October 31, 2021 or November 1, 2020.

•Total merchandise inventory was $94.5 million as of October 31, 2021 as compared to $57.8 million as of November 1, 2020.

Non-GAAP Information
Adjusted EBITDA is defined as a non-GAAP financial measure by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) that is a supplemental measure of financial performance not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define “Adjusted EBITDA” as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain non-cash and other items that we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing operating performance. These items include management fees, equity-based compensation expense, write-offs of property and equipment, deferred rent, financing expenses and certain other charges and gains that we do not believe reflect our underlying business performance. We have reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure within the schedules attached hereto.
We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of our business, facilitate a more meaningful comparison of our actual results on a period-over-period basis and provide for a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting our business. We have provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of our ongoing operations alongside GAAP measures such as gross profit, operating income (loss) and net income (loss). Other companies in our industry may calculate these items differently than we do. These non-GAAP measures should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP, such as net income (loss) or net income (loss) per share as a measure of financial performance, cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
