Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter Fiscal Year 2023 Financial Results

Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BOOT) today announced its financial results for the second fiscal quarter ended September 24, 2022. The Company has also filed a Supplemental Financial Presentation that has been made available at investor.bootbarn.com.

For the quarter ended September 24, 2022:

  • Net sales increased 12.4% over the prior-year period to $351.5 million, cycling 69.5% net sales growth in the prior-year period.
  • Same store sales increased 2.3% compared to the prior-year period, cycling 61.7% same store sales growth in the prior-year period. The 2.3% increase in consolidated same store sales is comprised of an increase in retail store same store sales of 3.9% and a decrease in e-commerce same store sales of 7.0%.
  • Net income was $32.1 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to $37.9 million, or $1.25 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Excluding a $0.03 per share tax benefit related primarily to income tax accounting for share-based compensation, net income per diluted share was $1.22 in the prior-year period.
  • The Company opened 10 new stores bringing its total count to 321.

“We are pleased to have followed up our strong start to fiscal 2023 with solid second quarter results,” said Jim Conroy, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Sales and earnings exceeded expectations as the market share gains we’ve made over the past two years proved sustainable despite the multiple headwinds pressuring consumer discretionary spending. Our top-line performance was driven by new store expansion and positive retail store same store sales growth, which were up mid-single digits for the quarter. This was accompanied by further merchandise margin expansion fueled primarily by an increase in exclusive brand penetration and better full-price selling. While current macroeconomic factors are creating general marketplace uncertainty, we feel good about our prospects for the upcoming holiday season, and remain very confident in our ability to deliver profitable growth and increased shareholder value over the long-term.”

Operating Results for the Second Quarter Ended September 24, 2022 Compared to the Second Quarter Ended September 25, 2021

  • Net sales increased 12.4% to $351.5 million from $312.7 million in the prior-year period. Consolidated same store sales increased 2.3% with retail store same store sales increasing 3.9% and e-commerce same store sales decreasing 7.0%. The increase in net sales was the result of the incremental sales from new stores opened over the past twelve months and the increase in consolidated same store sales, which saw an increase in average unit retail prices, driven in part by inflation.
  • Gross profit was $129.1 million, or 36.7% of net sales, compared to $118.2 million, or 37.8% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Gross profit increased primarily due to increased sales. The decrease in gross profit rate of 110 basis points was driven by 160 basis points of deleverage in buying, occupancy and distribution center costs, partially offset by a 50 basis-point increase in merchandise margin. The merchandise margin expansion was primarily a result of growth in exclusive brand penetration and better full-price selling.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses were $84.9 million, or 24.2% of net sales, compared to $68.0 million, or 21.8% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily a result of higher store payroll, other store-related expenses and marketing expenses compared to the prior-year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased by 240 basis points primarily as a result of higher marketing expenses, other store-related expenses and higher store payroll.
  • Income from operations decreased $6.0 million to $44.2 million, or 12.6% of net sales, compared to $50.1 million, or 16.0% of net sales, in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
  • Net income was $32.1 million, or $1.06 per diluted share, compared to net income of $37.9 million, or $1.25 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Excluding a $0.03 per share tax benefit related primarily to income tax accounting for share-based compensation, net income per diluted share was $1.22 in the prior-year period.

Operating Results for the Six Months Ended September 24, 2022 Compared to the Six Months Ended September 25, 2021

  • Net sales increased 15.9% to $717.4 million from $619.0 million in the prior-year period. Consolidated same store sales increased 6.1% with retail store same store sales increasing 7.0% and e-commerce same store sales increasing 0.8%. The increase in net sales was the result of the incremental sales from new stores opened over the past twelve months and the increase in consolidated same store sales, which saw an increase in average unit retail prices, driven in part by inflation.
  • Gross profit was $266.9 million, or 37.2% of net sales, compared to $234.6 million, or 37.9% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Gross profit increased primarily due to increased sales. The decrease in gross profit rate of 70 basis points was driven by 110 basis points of deleverage in buying, occupancy and distribution center costs, partially offset by a 40 basis-point increase in merchandise margin. Merchandise margin increased 40 basis points despite a 30 basis-point headwind from increased freight expense. The merchandise margin expansion was primarily a result of growth in exclusive brand penetration and better full-price selling.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses were $170.4 million, or 23.7% of net sales, compared to $130.8 million, or 21.1% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily a result of higher store payroll, other store-related expenses and marketing expenses compared to the prior-year period. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased by 260 basis points primarily as a result of an increase in other store-related expenses, store payroll, and marketing expenses.
  • Income from operations decreased $7.2 million to $96.6 million, or 13.5% of net sales, compared to $103.8 million, or 16.8% of net sales, in the prior-year period, primarily due to higher selling, general and administrative expenses.
  • Net income was $71.4 million, or $2.35 per diluted share, compared to net income of $78.5 million, or $2.59 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Net income per diluted share in the current-year and prior-year periods includes an approximately $0.03 and $0.12 per share benefit, respectively, primarily due to income tax accounting for share-based compensation. Excluding the tax benefits, net income per diluted share in the current-year period was $2.32, compared to $2.47 in the prior-year period.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to our current expectations and projections relating to, by way of example and without limitation, our financial condition, liquidity, profitability, results of operations, margins, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, business and industry. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as "anticipate", "estimate", "expect", "project", "plan“, "intend", "believe", “may”, “might”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “can have”, “likely”, “outlook” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events, but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this press release, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: the effect of COVID-19 on our business operations, growth strategies, store traffic, employee availability, financial condition, liquidity and cash flow; decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences; the Company’s ability to effectively execute on its growth strategy; and the Company’s failure to maintain and enhance its strong brand image, to compete effectively, to maintain good relationships with its key suppliers, and to improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this press release after the date of this press release.
