SEARS HOLDINGS CORPORATION HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., May 26, 2016/PRNewswire/ -- Sears Holdings Corporation ('Holdings,' 'we,' 'us,' 'our,' or the 'Company')(NASDAQ: SHLD) today announced financial results for its first quarter ended April 30, 2016. As a supplement to this announcement, a presentation, pre-recorded conference and audio webcast are available at our website http://searsholdings.com/invest.
In summary, we reported:
- Reported net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $471 million($4.41loss per diluted share) for the first quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $303 million($2.85loss per diluted share) for the prior year first quarter.
- Adjusted for significant items, we would have reported a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $199 million($1.86loss per diluted share) for the quarter compared to a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $213 million($2.00loss per diluted share) in the prior year quarter;
- Adjusted EBITDA of $(127) million, excluding Seritage Growth Properties and joint venture rent, in the first quarter of 2016 improved from $(141) millionin the prior year first quarter. We have shown improvements in six of the last seven quarters;
- Kmart and Sears Domestic comparable store sales declined 5.0% and 7.1%, respectively, in the first quarter of 2016; and
- During the first quarter of 2016, the Company closed a $750 millionSenior Secured Term Loan (the '2016 Term Loan') and received approximately $722 millionin net proceeds from the 2016 Term Loan. The Company also entered into a $500 million committed secured loan facility (the 'Secured Loan Facility') maturing in July 2017 and received net proceeds of approximately $485 millionfrom the Secured Loan Facility. The proceeds were used to reduce outstanding borrowings under its asset-based revolving credit facility and for general corporate purposes. The 2016 Term Loan, together with the Secured Loan Facility, provide the Company with additional financial flexibility as it executes on its transformation to a more asset-light integrated retailer leveraging its membership based Shop Your Way program.
Edward S. Lampert, Holdings' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, 'While our operating performance still remains well below our goals, I am pleased to report that our first quarter Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Seritage Growth Properties and joint venture rent, improved by $14 millioncompared to the first quarter of 2015, largely driven by reductions in overall expenses. Our Sears Domestic and Kmart apparel businesses continue to be negatively impacted by a heavily promotional competitive environment. We continue to focus on improving the overall performance of these businesses through changes to our assortment, sourcing, pricing and inventory management practices. We remain focused on restoring Sears Holdings to profitability by concentrating on our best stores, our best members and our best categories through innovative solutions leveraging our Shop Your Way membership program and our Integrated Retail offerings.'
Rob Schriesheim, Holdings' Chief Financial Officer, said, 'We have an asset rich portfolio which provides us with numerous options to finance our transformation strategy. The closing of the previously announced $750 million Term Loan, together with the $500 million Secured Loan Facility, provides $1.25 billion of committed financing. When considered together with our previously announced intention to monetize at least $300 million of assets, this set of actions would result in an aggregate of $1.5 billion of enhanced liquidity. As we have consistently demonstrated, we will continue to take actions to adjust our capital structure and manage our business to enable us to execute on our transformation while meeting all of our financial obligations.'
Financial Results
Revenues decreased approximately $488 million to $5.4 billionfor the quarter ended April 30, 2016, compared to revenues of $5.9 billionfor the quarter ended May 2, 2015. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by a 6.1% decline in comparable store sales during the quarter, which accounted for $268 millionof the revenue decline, and by having fewer Kmart and Sears Full-line stores in operation, which accounted for $149 millionof the decline.
At Kmart, comparable store sales decreased 5.0% driven by declines in the consumer electronics, grocery & household, pharmacy, drugstore and home categories. Sears Domestic comparable store sales decreased 7.1% primarily driven by decreases in home appliances, apparel, consumer electronics, footwear and Sears Auto Centers.
During the quarter, gross margin decreased $341 milliondue to the above noted decline in sales, as well as a decline in our gross margin rate. Kmart's gross margin rate for the first quarter declined 310 basis points compared to the prior year first quarter, while Sears Domestic's gross margin rate declined 470 basis points. Excluding the impact of significant items noted in our Adjusted Earnings Per Share tables, Kmart's gross margin rate would have declined 110 basis points, while Sears Domestic's gross margin rate would have declined 230 basis points compared to the prior year first quarter, driven by increased markdowns, including an increase in Shop Your Way expense, in both formats, as well as significantly lower margin in our apparel business and home appliances business experienced in Sears Domestic.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $178 millionin the first quarter of 2016 compared to the prior year quarter. Excluding significant items noted in our Adjusted Earnings Per Share tables, selling and administrative expenses declined $176 millionprimarily due to a decrease in payroll expense. In addition, advertising expense also declined as we shift away from traditional advertising to use of Shop You Way points expense, which is included within gross margin.
Our effective tax rate for the first quarter of 2016 was an expense of 3.3%, compared to an expense of 6.3% in the prior year quarter. The application of the requirements for accounting for income taxes in interim periods, after consideration of our valuation allowance, causes a significant variation in the typical relationship between income tax expense and pretax income.
The Company reported a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $471 millionfor the first quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $303 millionfor the prior year period. Net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders for the first quarter of 2016 and 2015 included significant items noted in our Adjusted Earnings Per Share tables, which aggregated to expense of $272 millionand $90 million, respectively. Adjusting for these significant items, we would have reported a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $199 millionand $213 millionin the first quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Financial Position
The Company's cash balances were $286 millionat April 30, 2016 compared with $238 millionat January 30, 2016. Merchandise inventories at April 30, 2016 were $5.0 billion, compared to $5.1 billionat May 2, 2015, while merchandise payables were $1.3 billionand $1.7 billionat April 30, 2016 and May 2, 2015, respectively. Short-term borrowings totaled $380 millionat the end of the first quarter of 2016 compared to $797 millionat January 30, 2016.
At April 30, 2016, we had utilized approximately $896 millionof our $1.971 billionrevolving credit facility due in 2020 (consisting of $244 millionof borrowings and $652 millionof letters of credit outstanding). The amount available to borrow under our credit facility was approximately $265 million, which reflects the effect of our springing fixed charge coverage ratio covenant and the borrowing base limitation in our revolving credit facility, which varies primarily based on our overall inventory and receivables balances.
Total long-term debt (long-term debt and capital lease obligations) was $3.4 billionand $2.2 billionat April 30, 2016 and January 30, 2016, respectively.
Other Corporate Developments
As we continue to evaluate opportunities to accelerate our transformation and drive growth, we recognize there is significant potential to further develop our Kenmore , Craftsman and DieHard ('KCD') and Sears Home Services ('SHS') businesses. Accordingly, our Board of Directors has decided to explore alternatives for KCD and SHS. Our iconic KCD brands are beloved by the American consumer and we believe that we can realize significant growth by further expanding the presence of these brands outside of Sears and Kmart. Similarly, our SHS business, which is the nation's leading provider of in-home services (Protection Agreements, Parts Direct, Delivery/Installation/Repair and Home Improvement), has greater potential than what we have delivered in the past. As the 'internet of things' develops and as more of our lives become connected, we believe SHS and KCD stand to benefit significantly from broader accessibility. By evaluating potential partnerships or other transactions that could expand distribution of our brands and service offerings, we can position both businesses to achieve greater success.
We have retained Citigroup Global Markets and LionTree Advisors to assist us in these efforts. There can be no assurance that we will complete one or more transactions, but we intend to aggressively evaluate all of the potential alternatives available to these businesses.
Finally, Sears announced today that its Chief Financial Officer, Robert Schriesheim, will be departing from his position with the Company to focus on his other business interests and pursue other career opportunities. To ensure a smooth transition, Mr. Schriesheim has agreed to continue in his current role until we have identified his replacement. Additionally, Mr. Schriesheim will continue to remain an advisor to the Company through January 31, 2017. 'On behalf of Sears and its Board of Directors, I would like to thank Rob for his many contributions to the Company since he joined in 2011,' said Mr. Lampert.
Adjusted EBITDA
In addition to our net loss attributable to Sears Holdings' shareholders determined in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ('GAAP'), for purposes of evaluating operating performance, we use Adjusted Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization ('Adjusted EBITDA'), Adjusted EBITDA excluding Seritage/JV rent and Adjusted Earnings Per Share ('Adjusted EPS'), which are non-GAAP measures. The tables attached to this press release provide a reconciliation of GAAP to as adjusted amounts. Adjusted EBITDA, excluding Seritage/JV rent, reflects the impact of the additional rent expense and assigned sub-tenant rental income as a result of the Seritage and JV transactions. The terms of our leases with Seritage and the JVs provide us with the ability to accelerate the transformation of our physical stores. We expect that our cash rent obligations will decrease significantly as space in these stores is recaptured. We believe that our use of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Seritage/JV rent and Adjusted EPS provides an appropriate measure for investors to use in assessing our performance across periods, given that these measures provide adjustments for certain significant items which may vary significantly from period to period, improving the comparability of year-to-year results and is therefore representative of our ongoing performance. Therefore, we have adjusted our results for them to make our statements more useful and comparable. However, we do not, and do not recommend that you, solely use Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA excluding Seritage/JV rent or Adjusted EPS to assess our financial and earnings performance. We also use, and recommend that you use, diluted earnings per share in addition to Adjusted EPS in assessing our earnings performance.
