Gymboree Reports Results for the Three Months Ended July 30, 2016 and the Six-Month Transition Period Ended July 30, 2016

SAN FRANCISCO - Oct. 25, 2016 // PRNewswire // - The Gymboree Corporation (the "Company") today reported consolidated financial results for the three-month period ended July 30, 2016 and the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016.  The Company previously announced a change in its fiscal year end from the Saturday closest to the end of January to the Saturday closest to the end of July, which has resulted in the six-month transition period.  The results disclosed below are from continuing operations of the Company and exclude the discontinued operations of the recently divested Gymboree Play & Music ("Play & Music") business (unless otherwise noted), which was sold on July 15, 2016. 

Quarter Ended July 30, 2016 Highlights Include:

  • Comparable sales (including online sales) decreased 2% compared to the three months ended August 1, 2015
  • Adjusted EBITDA (including Play & Music) decreased to $6.1 million compared to $11.1 million for the three months ended August 1, 2015
  • Adjusted EBITDA (excluding Play & Music) decreased to $4.4 million for the three months ended July 30, 2016 compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended August 1, 2015
  • Net loss from continuing operations, net of tax, for the three months ended July 30, 2016 was $20.0 million including a gain on extinguishment of debt of $18.0 million, compared to a net loss of $29.4 million for the three months ended August 1, 2015.

"We started the year off strong, particularly in our Gymboree and Janie and Jack brands," said Mark Breitbard, Chief Executive Officer.  "However, the second quarter proved to be difficult, particularly the end of June and July, and our results for the three-month period ended July 30, 2016 were disappointing.  While these trends have continued throughout our most recent quarter, we believe we have the right strategies in place to build on the strong holiday performance we delivered last year."    

  • Three Months Ended July 30, 2016 Results (13 weeks ended July 30, 2016 versus 13 weeks ended August 1, 2015)
  • Net sales for the three months ended July 30, 2016 were $250.3 million, compared to $261.8 million of net sales for the three months ended August 1, 2015, a decrease of 4%.
  • Comparable sales for the three months ended July 30, 2016 (including online sales) decreased 2% compared to comparable sales for the three months ended August 1, 2015.
  • Comparable sales by brand for the three months ended July 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended August 1, 2015, and for the three months ended August 1, 2015 compared to the three months ended August 2, 2014, are as follows:

  • Gross profit was $86.0 million, or 34.4% of net sales, compared to $91.5 million, or 34.9% of net sales for the three months ended July 30, 2016 compared to the three months ended August 1, 2015. The reduction in gross profit quarter over quarter was driven by lower retail and retail franchise sales resulting from weak traffic trends.
  • Adjusted gross profit was $87.5 million, or 35.0% of net sales, compared to $93.1 million, or 35.6% of net sales for the three months ended August 1, 2015.
  • SG&A expense was $102.7 million, or 41.0% of net sales, compared to $98.9 million, or 37.8% of net sales for the three months ended August 1, 2015. The quarter over quarter increase in SG&A relates primarily to $4.1 million in compensation expense triggered by the sale of the Play & Music business.
  • Adjusted SG&A expense was $94.8 million, or 37.9% of net sales, compared to $96.4 million, or 36.8% of net sales for the three months ended August 1, 2015. The reduction in adjusted SG&A expense is largely the result of the consolidation of our distribution footprint following the closure of our third party fulfillment center in Ohio.
  • During the three months ended July 30, 2016, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $2.6 million related to the Crazy 8 tradename.
  • Net loss from continuing operations, net of tax, for the three months ended July 30, 2016 was $20.0 million including a gain on extinguishment of debt of $18.0 million, compared to a net loss of $29.4 million for the three months ended August 1, 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, defined as net income (loss) attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for other items as described below, decreased to $4.4 million for the three months ended July 30, 2016 compared to $8.6 million for the three months ended August 1, 2015. The prior year quarter Adjusted EBITDA was negatively impacted by an estimated $5 million as a result of the west coast port slowdown.
  • Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted SG&A expense are not financial measures prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP").  For a description of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted gross profit and Adjusted SG&A expense and a reconciliation of these measures to GAAP measures, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below and Exhibit D of this press release.

Six-Month Transition Period Ended July 30, 2016 Results (26 weeks ended July 30, 2016 versus 26 weeks ended August 1, 2015)

  • Net sales for the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 were $523.2 million, compared to $529.2 million of net sales for the six months ended August 1, 2015, a decrease of 1%.
  • Comparable sales (including online sales) for the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 increased 1% compared to comparable sales for the six months ended August 1, 2015.
  • Comparable sales by brand for the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 compared to the six months ended August 1, 2015, and for the six months ended August 1, 2015 compared to the six months ended August 2, 2014, are as follows:

  • Net cash used in operating activities was $25.7 million, compared to net cash used in operating activities of $42.0 million during the six-month period ended August 1, 2015.
  • Gross profit was $195.8 million, or 37.4% of net sales, compared to $189.7 million, or 35.8% of net sales for the six-month period ended August 1, 2015. The increase in gross profit was driven primarily by the negative impact from the west coast port slowdown in our retail business during the first two quarters of fiscal 2015 and lower buying and occupancy costs, partially offset by weak traffic trends during the second quarter ended July 30, 2016.
  • Adjusted gross profit was $198.8 million, or 38.0% of net sales, compared to $193.1 million, or 36.5% of net sales for the six-month period ended August 1, 2015.
  • SG&A expense was $209.9 million, or 40.1% of net sales, compared to $200.2 million, or 37.8% of net sales for the six-month period ended August 1, 2015. The increase in SG&A expense was primarily due to a $5.7 million net expense related to the termination of the operating service agreement with our third party distribution center in Ohio, $4.1 million in compensation expense triggered by the sale of the Play & Music business, and an increase in marketing expenses, partially offset by a decrease in expenses resulting from combined store closures and fewer store openings.
  • Adjusted SG&A expense was $194.1 million, or 37.1% of net sales, compared to $194.3 million, or 36.7% of net sales for the six-month period ended August 1, 2015.
  • During the six months ended July 30, 2016, the Company recorded an asset impairment charge of $2.6 million related to the Crazy 8 tradename.
    Net income from continuing operations, net of tax, for the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 was $8.7 million, including a gain on extinguishment of debt of $66.9 million, compared to a net loss of $54.7 for the six months ended August 1, 2015.
  • Adjusted EBITDA for the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 was $27.1 million compared to $22.8 million for the six months ended August 1, 2015. Adjusted EBITDA for the six months ended August 1, 2015 was negatively impacted by an estimated $11 million from the west coast port slowdown.

Balance Sheet and Other Highlights

  • During the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016, the Company repurchased $116.6 million aggregate principal amount of its 9.125% senior notes due 2018 (the "Notes") for $46.8 million in cash through privately negotiated transactions and through a cash tender offer ("Tender Offer") announced on April 26, 2016, which expired on May 23, 2016 (the "2016 Repurchase"). The Company recorded a $66.9 million gain on extinguishment of debt. The 2016 Repurchase includes $39.6 million aggregate principal amount of Notes repurchased for $20.6 million through the Tender Offer. As of July 30, 2016, the face value of the remaining Notes outstanding is $171.0 million.
  • On July 15, 2016, the Company sold the Play & Music business to Zeavion Holding Pte. Ltd. ("Zeavion") for cash proceeds of $128.1 million, of which $127.1 million was attributed to the sale of Play & Music and approximately $1.0 million was attributed to a transition services agreement, which will be recognized as income over a period of one year as services are performed. In connection with the sale, the Company recognized a $70.0 million gain during the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 which is included in results of discontinued operations. Of the $128.1 million proceeds received upon closing, approximately $109.9 million is restricted under the Term Loan (defined below) to reduce the Term Loan, fund capital expenditures or investments in other assets with respect to which the Term Loan lenders would have a first priority security interest or pay income taxes associated with the gain on the sale of the Play & Music business. As of July 30, 2016, the remaining balance of the restricted cash attributable to the sale of Play & Music was $107.1 million.
  • As of July 30, 2016, there were $42 million in borrowings outstanding under the Company's asset-backed revolving credit facility and $117.2 million of undrawn availability under this facility after deducting letters of credit and outstanding borrowings compared to $70 million of borrowings and $95.7 million of availability as of August 1, 2015.
  • As of the date of this press release, there were $88.0 million in borrowings outstanding under the asset-backed revolving credit facility and approximately $106.9 million of undrawn availability under this facility after deducting $30.1 million of letters of credit and outstanding borrowings.
  • As of July 30, 2016 there was $769.1 million of principal outstanding under the Company's $820 million senior secured term loan (the "Term Loan").
  • As of July 30, 2016 there was $50.0 million of principal outstanding under the Company's senior secured ABL term loan.
  • Capital expenditures, which were primarily related to IT initiatives, were $11.2 million during the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 compared to $7.3 million in the same prior year period.
  • Cash paid for interest was $34.4 million during the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 compared to $37.2 million in the same prior year period.
  • Cash paid for taxes was $1.3 million during the six-month transition period ended July 30, 2016 compared to cash received of $3.0 million during the same prior year period.
  • Inventory balances as of July 30, 2016 were $233.0 million, compared to $239.4 million as of August 1, 2015. On a per square foot basis, inventory cost was up 1% at July 30, 2016 over the same prior year period. Inventory units were down low-single digits.

The Company is continuing to actively pursue various other financing alternatives, including refinancing and/or repurchasing its existing debt, raising new capital, as well as other opportunities to improve its capital structure.  If opportunities are favorable, the Company may consummate one or more of these initiatives and the amounts involved and related financial statement impact may be material.

Business Outlook

  • The Company previously provided guidance in its first fiscal quarter 2016 earnings release on June 13, 2016. This guidance was provided prior to the change in the Company's fiscal year-end and the sale of the Play & Music business on July 15, 2016. The guidance range provided for Adjusted EBITDA at that time of approximately $120 million to $135 million covered the Company's previous fiscal year beginning January 31, 2016 and ending January 28, 2017. Excluding the divested Play & Music business, this guidance would have been a range of approximately $110 million to $125 million on a comparable basis.
  • Based upon the Company's performance for the three-month period ended July 30, 2016 and its outlook for the business through the end of the second fiscal quarter of 2017, the Company expects Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations (excluding discontinued operations of the divested Play & Music business) for the twelve months ending January 28, 2017 to be in the range of approximately $85 to $105 million.
  • Quarter-to-date comparable sales through October 23, 2016 decreased 5% compared to comparable sales for the same prior year period. The comparable sales metric is taken from the Company's daily sales report and does not reflect any adjustments that would be required upon our customary quarterly financial close and reporting procedures.
  • Quarter-to-date comparable sales by brand through October 23, 2016 for the Gymboree, Janie and Jack and Crazy 8 brands are expected to be in the negative mid-single digits, positive low-single digits and negative low-single digits, respectively.
  • The Company anticipates Adjusted EBITDA for the first fiscal quarter ended October 29, 2016 to be in the range of $13 million to $18 million compared to $26.5 million for the same prior year period.
  • The Company anticipates Adjusted EBITDA for the second fiscal quarter ended January 28, 2017 to be in the range of $45 million to $60 million compared to $46 million for the same prior year period.
  • The decline in the Company's outlook through January 28, 2017 reflects actual performance to date, which has fallen short of expectations. The higher end of our range assumes significant improvement in traffic trends heading into the Holiday season while the lower end of our range assumes negative trends continue throughout the first and second quarters of fiscal 2017.

Stores

  • For the period from July 31, 2016 through January 28, 2017, the Company plans to open approximately 2 new stores and expects to close approximately 12 stores, primarily in its Crazy 8 and Gymboree brands.

Capital Expenditures

  • The Company anticipates spending in the range of $10 to $20 million for capital expenditures during the period from July 31, 2016 through January 28, 2017.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures                       

The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income (loss) attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA"), adjusted for other items including gain on extinguishment of debt, non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets and sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the Acquisition and certain other items that we do not believe are representative of our ongoing operations.  The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to net income for the periods presented because management cannot reasonably predict with sufficient reliability all of the necessary components of net income for the periods presented.  The Company has excluded the items reflected in the definition of Adjusted EBITDA above from its projected Adjusted EBITDA for the periods presented and is likely to exclude these items from Adjusted EBITDA in the future and may also exclude other similar items, the effect of which is uncertain but may be significant in amount.  The determination of the amounts that are excluded from non-GAAP financial measures is a matter of management judgment and depends upon, among other factors, the nature of the underlying expense or income amounts.  In addition, Adjusted EBITDA is presented in this press release as Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations, which excludes the discontinued operations of the recently divested Gymboree Play & Music business.  See Exhibit F for a reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA, as previously reported, including our Gymboree Play & Music business. 

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measure but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies.  Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry.  Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity.  Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

ADJUSTED EBITDA:

               

The Company defines "Adjusted EBITDA" as net income (loss) attributable to The Gymboree Corporation before interest expense, interest income, income tax expense/benefit, and depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") adjusted for other items, including gain on extinguishment of debt, non-cash share-based compensation, loss on disposal/impairment of assets, and sponsor management fees and expenses, as well as the impact of purchase accounting adjustments resulting from the acquisition of the Company by investment funds sponsored by Bain Capital Private Equity, LP (formerly Bain Capital Partners, LLC) (the "Acquisition").

Adjusted EBITDA is not a performance measure under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), but is considered an important supplemental measure of the Company's performance and is believed to be used frequently by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of similar retail companies. Adjusted EBITDA is not a presentation made in accordance with GAAP and the Company's computation of Adjusted EBITDA may vary from others in the industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered an alternative to operating income or net income, as a measure of operating performance or cash flow, or as a measure of liquidity. Adjusted EBITDA has important limitations as an analytical tool and should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.

The table below provides a reconciliation of net (loss) income from continuing operations to Adjusted EBITDA from continuing operations:
