COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 7, 2021 /PRNewswire/ -- Designer Brands Inc.
(NYSE: DBI) (the "Company" and "Designer Brands"), one of
North America's largest designers,
producers, and retailers of footwear and accessories, announced
financial results for the three months ended October 30, 2021,
compared to the three months ended October 31, 2020.
Roger Rawlins, Chief Executive
Officer, stated, "Designer Brands' outstanding third quarter
results demonstrate the efficacy of our strategic plans that were
set in motion prior to the onset of the pandemic and accelerated
over the last 18 months. We continue to see strength in our key
assortment distortion areas including athletic and athleisure,
kid's, and men's, all powered by the Top 50 Brands in footwear, as
well as a return to growth in our vertical brands. This drove
record-setting margin expansion in the third quarter and our
expectation is that these areas will continue to drive our
long-term margin profile with these shifts being a permanent part
of our go-forward model.
"We are energized by the strength of our strategy and our
record-setting results, despite unseasonably warm weather and
industry-wide supply chain challenges. Looking forward, we are
continuing to focus on our three key strategic pillars – customer,
brand, and speed – to remove friction, acquire new customers,
evolve our assortment to match consumer preferences, and move
product to our customers faster and more efficiently."
Third Quarter Results
- Net sales increased 30.7% to $853.5
million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to the
same period last year.
- Comparable sales increased 40.8% for the third quarter of
fiscal 2021.
- Gross profit increased to a record $313.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal
2021 versus $165.7 million last year,
and gross margin as a percentage of net sales was a record 36.7% as
compared to 25.4% for the same period last year and 29.3% for the
third quarter of fiscal 2019.
- Reported net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was
$80.2 million, or $1.04 diluted earnings per share ("EPS"),
including net benefits of $0.18 per
diluted share from adjusted items, primarily related the change in
the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets.
- Adjusted net income in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 was
$66.6 million, or $0.86 diluted EPS, compared to an adjusted net
loss of $18.6 million, or
$0.26 loss per diluted share, for the
third quarter of fiscal 2020.
Liquidity Highlights
- Cash and cash equivalents totaled $83.1
million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021
compared to $114.5 million for the
same period last year, with $394.7
million available for borrowings under our senior secured
asset-based revolving credit facility ("ABL Revolver"). Debt
totaled $227.9 million at the end of
the third quarter of fiscal 2021 compared to $337.1 million debt outstanding for the same
period last year.
- The Company ended the quarter with inventories of $602.1 million compared to $546.0 million for the same period last
year.
Store Openings and Closings
During the third quarter of fiscal 2021, we opened four new
stores in the U.S. and one new store in Canada, and we closed four stores in the U.S.,
resulting in a total of 515 U.S. stores and 144 Canadian stores as
of October 30, 2021.
Outlook for the Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2021
The Company has announced new guidance for the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2021. Consolidated net sales are expected to be flat to up
low-single digits compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2019.
The Company expects this to result in a diluted EPS in the range of
$0.10 to $0.15 for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

Non-GAAP Measures
To supplement amounts presented in our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements determined in accordance with
accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), the Company uses
certain non-GAAP financial measures, including adjusted operating
expenses, adjusted operating profit (loss), adjusted net income
(loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share as shown in
the table above. These measures adjust for the effects of: (1)
integration and restructuring expenses, including severance
charges; (2) impairment charges and a related gain on settlement;
(3) target acquisition costs (credits); (4) foreign currency
transaction gains; (5) the net tax impact of such items; and (6)
the change in the valuation allowance on deferred tax assets. The
unaudited reconciliation of adjusted results should not be
construed as an alternative to the reported results determined in
accordance with GAAP. These financial measures are not based on any
standardized methodology and are not necessarily comparable to
similar measures presented by other companies. The Company believes
these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both
management and investors to increase comparability to prior periods
by adjusting for certain items that may not be indicative of core
operating measures and to better identify trends in our business.
The adjusted financial results are used by management to, and allow
investors to, evaluate the operating performance of the Company on
a comparable basis, when reviewed in conjunction with the Company's
GAAP statements. These amounts are not determined in accordance
with GAAP and therefore should not be used exclusively in
evaluating the Company's business and operations.
Revised Non-GAAP Measures
Beginning with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company
revised its determination of adjusted financial results by
eliminating the immaterial adjustments related to COVID-19
incremental costs (credits), net, and amortization of intangible
assets. These revisions align with how management currently
evaluates the performance of the business. The Company has recast
its third quarter of fiscal 2020 non-GAAP financial measures to
conform to the revised presentation as set forth in the table
above.
