sisilihya.blogspot.com

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Macy’s, Inc. (NYSE: M) today reported results for the second quarter of 2020.

“Macy’s, Inc. performance for the quarter was stronger than anticipated across all three brands: Macy’s, Bloomingdale’s and Bluemercury, driven largely by the sales recovery of our stores. Restarting our stores’ business was our top priority, and we successfully accomplished that while also ensuring that our digital business remained strong. Going into this crisis, we had a well-developed digital business and we’re seeing that thrive as we attract new and welcome existing customers back to our brands,” said Jeff Gennette, chairman and chief executive officer of Macy’s, Inc. “We’ve put significant focus on enhanced health and safety standards which has allowed our customers and colleagues to feel safe in our stores and facilities. I want to thank our colleagues for the tremendous effort that has been put into recovering our business.

“We are encouraged by our second quarter performance; however, we continue to approach the back half of the year conservatively. Our immediate priority is successfully executing Holiday 2020. We are also focused on laying the groundwork for 2021 and beyond. We plan to invest in fashion, digital and omnichannel, work with agility, and galvanize the resources of the company to serve our customers and move the Macy’s, Inc. business forward,” Gennette continued.

Second Quarter Highlights

• Comparable sales were down 34.7% on an owned basis and down 35.1% on an owned plus licensed basis, due to faster paced store recovery than originally modeled and better than expected growth of digital business.

• Digital sales remained strong, growing 53% over second quarter 2019. Digital sales penetrated at 54% of total owned comparable sales.

• Delivered gross margin of 23.6%, an improvement of approximately 650 basis points from first quarter 2020 due to improved retail margins from mix and better sell through of clearance merchandise.

• Inventory was down 29% from a year ago, allowing the company to exit second quarter in a clean inventory position.

• Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense of $1.4 billion, down $779 million from second quarter last year, illustrating efficient expense management associated with the swift actions undertaken in response to the COVID-19 pandemic as well as execution against our Polaris strategy. SG&A expense rate of 39.2%, was relatively consistent with prior year.

• Diluted loss per share of $(1.39) and Adjusted diluted loss per share of $(0.81).

Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Notes:
(1)		As a result of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the fiscal year.
(2)		The 13 weeks ended August 1, 2020 include cash restructuring charges totaling $169 million primarily associated with the previously announced reduction in force due to the impact of COVID-19.
		The 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 also include non-cash impairment charges totaling $3.2 billion, which consist of a $3.1 billion goodwill impairment charge and an $80 million impairment charge on long-lived tangible and right of use assets.
(3)		The income tax benefits of $298 million and $874 million, or 40.9% and 17.9% of pretax loss, for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 reflect a different projected benefit rate as compared to the company's federal income tax statutory rate of 21% due to the carryback of net operating losses as permitted under the CARES Act. For the 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020, the benefit of the available carryback of net operating losses was offset by the impact of the non-tax deductible component of the goodwill impairment charge and additional income tax expense associated with the deferred tax remeasurement recognized during the first quarter of 2020.
(4)		Gross margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales.
(5)		Restricted cash of $7 million and $73 million have been included with cash and cash equivalents for the 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, respectively.

MACY’S, INC.

Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the company's financial information with additional useful information in evaluating operating performance. Management believes that providing supplemental changes in comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis and changes in comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis, which includes adjusting for growth in comparable sales of departments licensed to third parties, assists in evaluating the company's ability to generate sales growth, whether through owned businesses or departments licensed to third parties, and in evaluating the impact of changes in the manner in which certain departments are operated. Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure which the company believes provides meaningful information about its operational efficiency by excluding the impact of changes in tax law and structure, debt levels and capital investment. In addition, management believes that excluding certain items from EBITDA, net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share that are not associated with the company’s core operations and that may vary substantially in frequency and magnitude from period-to-period provides useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating the company's ability to generate earnings and to more readily compare these metrics between past and future periods.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the company's actual and future financial condition and performance. Additionally, the amounts received by the company on account of sales of departments licensed to third parties are limited to commissions received on such sales. The methods used by the company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

Notes:
(6)		Represents the period-to-period percentage change in net sales from stores in operation throughout the year presented and the immediately preceding year and all online sales, excluding commissions from departments licensed to third parties. Stores impacted by a natural disaster or undergoing significant expansion or shrinkage remain in the comparable sales calculation unless the store, or material portion of the store, is closed for a significant period of time. No stores have been excluded as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales may differ among companies in the retail industry.
(7)		Represents the impact of including the sales of departments licensed to third parties occurring in stores in operation throughout the year presented and the immediately preceding year and all online sales in the calculation of comparable sales. The company licenses third parties to operate certain departments in its stores and online and receives commissions from these third parties based on a percentage of their net sales. In its financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP, the company includes these commissions (rather than sales of the departments licensed to third parties) in its net sales. The company does not, however, include any amounts in respect of licensed department sales (or any commissions earned on such sales) in its comparable sales in accordance with GAAP (i.e., on an owned basis). The amounts of commissions earned on sales of departments licensed to third parties are not material to its net sales for the periods presented.
