SEARS HOLDINGS CORPORATION HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill., Aug. 25, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Sears Holdings Corporation ("Holdings," "we," "us," "our," or the "Company")(NASDAQ: SHLD) today announced financial results for its second quarter ended July 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:
-- Net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $395 million ($3.70
loss per diluted share) for the second quarter of 2016 compared to net
income attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $208 million ($1.84 per
diluted share) for the prior year second quarter;
-- Adjusted for significant items, we would have reported a net loss
attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $217 million ($2.03 loss per
diluted share) for the second quarter of 2016 compared to a net loss
attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $256 million ($2.40 loss per
diluted share) in the prior year second quarter;
-- Adjusted EBITDA of $(191) million in the second quarter of 2016,
improved from $(226) million in the prior year second quarter;
-- Kmart and Sears Domestic comparable store sales declined 3.3% and 7.0%,
respectively, in the second quarter of 2016;
-- During the second quarter of 2016, the Company generated cash proceeds
of $176 million from the sale of real estate properties and other asset
sales; and
-- We received an offer from ESL Investments, Inc. ("the ESL proposal") to
provide $300 million of additional debt financing secured by a junior
lien against our inventory, receivables and other working capital, which
offer has been accepted.
Edward S. Lampert, Holdings' Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, "We continue to face a challenging competitive environment and while we continue to focus on our overall profitability, including managing expenses, we reported a net loss for the second quarter. We are encouraged by the year-over-year improvement in our Adjusted EBITDA and feel we are making progress in our transformation as we remain focused on our best stores, our best members and our best categories to drive our business and enhance the member experience."
Rob Schriesheim, Holdings' Chief Financial Officer, said, "During the first half of 2016, we have demonstrated our ability to finance our transformation strategy with the levers available to us through our portfolio of assets and businesses. The sale of assets, combined with the previous closing of the $750 million Term Loan, together with the $500 million Secured Loan Facility, provided us with over $1.4 billion of financing during the first half of 2016. We have continued to demonstrate our flexibility in the third quarter of 2016 with the announcement of the recently received offer to provide $300 million of additional debt financing. As we move into the second half of 2016, we continue to explore alternatives for our Kenmore(®), Craftsman(®) and DieHard(®) and Sears Home Services businesses by evaluating potential partnerships or other transactions. As we navigate through the current challenging retail environment and executing our transformation, 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 $548 million to $5.7 billion for the quarter ended July 30, 2016, compared to revenues of $6.2 billion for the quarter ended August 1, 2015. The decrease in revenue was primarily driven by a 5.2% decline in comparable store sales during the quarter, which accounted for $240 million of the revenue decline, and by having fewer Kmart and Sears Full-line stores in operation, which accounted for $199 million of the decline. In addition, we also experienced a decline in revenues from Sears Hometown and Outlet Stores, Inc. of approximately $75 million during the second quarter of 2016.
At Kmart, comparable store sales decreased 3.3%. We experienced comparable store sales increases in several categories this quarter, including toys, jewelry, mattresses and apparel, which were more than offset by declines in the pharmacy, grocery & household and consumer electronics categories. Sears Domestic comparable store sales decreased 7.0%, primarily driven by decreases in home appliances, apparel, consumer electronics, footwear, lawn & garden and tools.
During the quarter, gross margin decreased $175 million due to the above noted decline in sales, as well as a decline in our gross margin rate. As a result of the Seritage and JV transactions, the second quarter of 2016 included additional rent expense of approximately $48 million and the second quarter of 2015 included additional rent expense and assigned sub-tenant rental income of approximately $26 million.
Kmart's gross margin rate for the second quarter improved 10 basis points compared to the prior year second quarter, while Sears Domestic's gross margin rate declined 150 basis points. Excluding the impact of significant items noted in our Adjusted Earnings Per Share tables, Kmart's gross margin rate would have declined 10 basis points, while Sears Domestic's gross margin rate would have declined 100 basis points compared to the prior year second quarter. While we experienced improvement in several categories in our Kmart format, the overall decline in Kmart's gross margin rate was primarily due to declines in the grocery & household and apparel categories. The decline in Sears Domestic's gross margin rate was primarily driven by a decline in the apparel category. The margin rate in both segments was negatively impacted by increased promotional markdowns, including an increase in Shop Your Way(®) expense.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $210 million in the second 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 $193 million primarily due to a decrease in payroll expense. In addition, advertising expense declined as we shifted away from traditional advertising to the use of Shop Your Way(®) points expense, which is included within gross margin.
Our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2016 was an expense of 3.4%. 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. During the prior year quarter, the Company realized a significant tax benefit on the deferred taxes related to indefinite-life assets associated with the properties sold in the transaction with Seritage. As such, our effective tax rate for the second quarter of 2015 was a benefit of 1,700.0%.
The Company reported a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $395 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared to net income attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $208 million for the prior year period. Net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders for the second quarter of 2016 and net income attributable to Holdings' shareholders for the second quarter of 2015 included significant items noted in our Adjusted Earnings Per Share tables, which aggregated to expense of $178 million and income of $464 million, respectively. Adjusting for these significant items, we would have reported a net loss attributable to Holdings' shareholders of $217 million and $256 million in the second quarter of 2016 and 2015, respectively.
Financial Position
The Company's cash balances were $276 million at July 30, 2016 compared with $238 million at January 30, 2016. Short-term borrowings totaled $164 million at the end of the second quarter of 2016 compared to $797 million at January 30, 2016.
Merchandise inventories were $4.7 billion at July 30, 2016, compared to $5.0 billion at August 1, 2015, while merchandise payables were $1.3 billion and $1.7 billion at July 30, 2016 and August 1, 2015, respectively.
At July 30, 2016, we had utilized approximately $719 million of our $1.971 billion revolving credit facility due in 2020 (consisting of $63 million of borrowings and $656 million of letters of credit outstanding). The amount available to borrow under our credit facility was approximately $191 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. Under the credit facility agreement, the fixed charge coverage ratio changed in August 2016, which increases our availability to borrow under the credit agreement by approximately $175 million.
Total long-term debt (including current portion of long-term debt and capital lease obligations) was $3.4 billion and $2.2 billion at July 30, 2016 and January 30, 2016, respectively.
In August 2016, we received the ESL proposal to provide $300 million of additional debt financing secured by a junior lien against our inventory, receivables and other working capital, which offer has been accepted. Under the ESL proposal, the Company may, in its discretion, offer to third party investors the right to participate in up to an additional $200 million of debt financing on the same terms and conditions. The financing is subject to customary conditions and is expected to close in the next 7 to 10 business days. The terms of the debt financing were approved by the Related Party Transactions Subcommittee of the Board of Directors of the Company, with advice from Centerview Partners and Weil Gotshal & Manges, the Subcommittee's outside financial and legal advisors.
Update on Strategic Initiatives
On May 26, 2016, we announced our intention to explore alternatives for our Kenmore(®), Craftsman(®) and DieHard(®) brands and our Sears Home Services business by evaluating potential partnerships or other transactions that could expand distribution of our brands and service offerings to realize significant growth. We initiated a formal process and have received interest from a variety of potential partners, both domestic and international, and including retailers, original equipment manufacturers, financial investors and others. Citigroup Global Markets and LionTree Advisors are assisting us in these efforts as we continue our assessment over the next few months. 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.
Adjusted EBITDA
In addition to our net income (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") 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. We believe that our use of Adjusted EBITDA 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 or Adjusted EPS to assess our financial and earnings performance. We also use, and recommend that you use, diluted earnings (loss) per share in addition to Adjusted EPS in assessing our earnings performance.
As a result of the Seritage and JV transactions, Adjusted EBITDA for the second quarter of 2016 and 2015 included additional rent expense of approximately $48 million and $26 million, respectively, while the first half of 2016 and 2015 included additional rent expense of approximately $102 million and $26 million, respectively. Due to the structure of the leases, we expect that our cash rent obligations to Seritage and the joint venture partners will decline, over time, as space in these stores is recaptured. From the inception of Seritage to date, we have received recapture notices on 15 properties, which is estimated to reduce the rent expense by approximately $8 million on an annual basis.
