The Lovesac Company Announces Third Quarter Fiscal 2020 Financial Results

Third quarter net sales growth of 25%
Third quarter total comparable sales increase of 32.5%
Comparable showroom sales up 27.1%,
Comparable internet sales up 47.7%

STAMFORD, Conn., Dec. 12, 2019 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- The Lovesac Company (Nasdaq:LOVE) (the “Company”) today announced its financial results for the third quarter of fiscal 2020, which ended on November 3, 2019.

The Company announced its third quarter fiscal 2020 performance, including net sales growth of 25% and total comparable sales growth of 32.5% driven by increases in new customers as well as increases in average order value (AOV). New product introductions including the Sactionals PowerHub and Storage Seat have exhibited 45% attachment rates and have lifted the blended AOV of all Sactionals purchases (new and repeat) significantly. The Company stated it has made good progress on all strategic priorities including supply chain optimization, sourcing, growth of the pop-up shop business, and the successful launch of four permanent shop in shop locations within Macy’s stores intended as a test toward a larger program.

Shawn Nelson, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We are very pleased to have delivered better than expected third quarter Adjusted EBITDA results even with a slight top-line impact from a timing shift of showroom openings. This demonstrates our disciplined approach to managing the business while still achieving continued high growth.”

The Company experienced a timing shift of showroom openings in the third quarter. These showrooms are expected to open in the fiscal fourth quarter for an ending showroom count of 91, or a 21% increase over last year. As a result of these third quarter shifts, the Company is narrowing its expected net sales growth range for the year to 40% - 42% (from 40% - 45% previously) and continues to expect positive Adjusted EBITDA for the full fiscal year.

Nelson added, “The all-important fourth quarter is off to a great start with greater than 42% growth over fourth quarter last year and we are on track to deliver positive Adjusted EBITDA for the full fiscal year.”

For the Thirteen Weeks Ended November 3, 2019

  • Net sales increased 25.0% to $52.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 from $41.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. This increase was driven by strong showroom, Internet and pop-up shop (which we previously referred to as shop in shops) performance with both transaction and ticket growth resulting from successful digital marketing strategies which drew new customers to the brand while also driving repeat purchase behavior. Comparable sales, which includes showroom and Internet sales, increased 32.5%. Comparable showroom sales increased 27.1% and Internet sales increased 47.7%.
  • The Company opened four new showrooms in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 and ended the quarter with 84 showrooms in 32 states. This represents a unit increase of 9.1% over the same quarter in the prior year.
  • Gross profit increased $3.4 million, or 14.7%, to $26.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 from $22.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Gross margin decreased to 50.4% of net sales from 54.9% of net sales in the prior year period. The expected decrease in gross margin rate was driven primarily by the impact of the 25% China tariffs, partially offset by reduced costs of Sactionals and Sacs products. The decrease in costs of Sactionals and Sacs products was primarily related to cost savings from improved sourcing of Lovesoft and down blend fills in addition to an ongoing shift of manufacturing from China to Vietnam. Given timing factors, the benefits of the sourcing work and recently negotiated vendor concessions are expected to impact gross margins starting in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $5.2 million, or 26.7%, to $24.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $19.3 million in the prior year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to investments to support growth including: an increase in employment costs of $1.6 million, $0.9 million of increased rent associated with our addition of four showrooms offset by a reduction of $0.1 million of expenses related to sales such as an increase of $0.4 million of credit card fees, offset by a reduction of $0.5 million of pop-up shop sales agent fees. Overhead expenses increased $2.8 million consisting of an increase of $2.3 million in infrastructure improvements, increase in equity-based compensation of $0.1 million, and an increase of $0.4 million related to operating costs of the business such as insurance.
  • As a percent of net sales, total SG&A expense increased to 47.0% from 46.4% in the prior year period, driven largely by increases in infrastructure improvements, employment and insurance costs, partially offset by selling related expenses.
  • Advertising and marketing expenses increased $2.1 million, or 40.5%, to $7.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $5.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in advertising and marketing costs relates to increased media and direct to consumer programs, which are expected to drive revenue beyond the period of the expense.
  • Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $0.3 million or 27.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 to $1.4 million compared to $1.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense principally relates to capital investments for new and remodeled showrooms.
  • Operating loss was $6.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to an operating loss of $2.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019.
  • Net loss and net loss attributable to common shares was $6.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020, compared to a net loss of $2.5 million, or net loss attributable to common shares of $2.9 million including preferred dividends and deemed dividends in the third quarter in fiscal 2019. Adjusted net loss, which excludes the impact of the IPO and certain other non-recurring expenses in both periods, was $6.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to $2.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).
  • Net loss per share, including preferred dividends and deemed dividends, was ($0.46) in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ($0.22) in the third quarter of fiscal 2019. Adjusted net loss per common share, which is calculated by dividing adjusted net loss by adjusted weighted average common shares outstanding assuming the IPO related issuances occurred at the beginning of each period presented, was ($0.46) in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ($0.15) in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).
  • Adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), was ($3.7) million in the third quarter of fiscal 2020 compared to ($0.4) million in the third quarter of fiscal 2019 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).

For the Thirty-Nine Weeks Ended November 3, 2019

  • Net sales increased 38.8% to $141.2 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period from $101.7 million in the same period of fiscal 2019. This increase was driven by strong showroom, Internet and pop-up shop performance with both transaction as well as ticket growth resulting from successful digital marketing strategies which drew new customers to the brand while also driving repeat purchase behavior. Comparable sales, which includes showroom and Internet sales, increased 37.8%. Comparable showroom sales increased 29.5% and Internet sales increased 64.7%.
  • The Company opened 11 new showrooms and closed two showrooms in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period.
  • Gross profit increased $16.2 million, or 29.2%, to $71.5 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period from $55.4 million in the corresponding prior year period. Gross margin decreased to 50.7% of net sales in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period from 54.4% of net sales in the corresponding prior year period. The decrease in gross margin rate was driven primarily by the impact of 25% China tariffs, partially offset by reduced costs of Sactionals and Sacs products. The decrease in costs of Sactionals and Sacs products was primarily related to cost savings from improved sourcing of Lovesoft and down blend fills in addition to an ongoing shift of manufacturing from China to Vietnam.
  • Selling, general and administrative expenses increased $15.3 million, or 27.9%, to $70.3 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period compared to $55.0 million in the prior year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to investments to support growth including: an increase in employment costs of $5.1 million, $2.2 million of rent associated with our net addition of 9 showrooms, and $2.2 million of expenses related to the increase in sales such as $1.1 million of credit card fees and $1.1 million of pop-up shop sales agent fees. Overhead expenses increased $5.8 million consisting of an increase of $6.1 million in infrastructure investments, an increase in insurance expense of $0.8 million related to the growth of the Company and an increase of $1.2 million in stock compensation offset by a decrease in IPO and financing related expense of $2.3 million.
  • As a percent of net sales, total SG&A expense decreased to 49.8% from 54.1% in the prior year period, driven largely by decreases in equity-based compensation and IPO related expenses, partially offset by warranty and professional services.
  • Advertising and marketing expenses increased $5.6 million, or 42.2%, to $18.7 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period from $13.2 million in the corresponding prior year period. The increase in advertising and marketing costs relates to increased media and direct to consumer programs which are expected to drive revenue beyond the period of the expense.
  • Depreciation and amortization expenses increased $1.1 million or 45.2% in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period to $3.6 million compared to $2.5 million in the corresponding prior year period. The increase in depreciation and amortization expense principally relates to capital investments for new and remodeled showrooms.
  • Operating loss was $21.1 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period compared to an operating loss of $15.3 million in the same period of fiscal 2019.

This compares to a net loss of $15.1 million in the prior year period and a net loss attributable to common shares of $43.0 million including preferred dividends and deemed dividends in the prior year period. Adjusted net loss, which excludes the impact of the IPO and certain other non-recurring expenses, was $20.3 million in the fiscal 2020 year-to-date period compared to $11.1 million in the prior year period (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).

Non-GAAP Information

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): adjusted net loss, adjusted diluted loss per share and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net loss excludes the effect of one-time costs related to the Company’s IPO in June 2018 and fees associated with fundraising and reorganizing activities. Adjusted diluted loss per share is defined as adjusted net loss divided by a pro forma share count which assumes the IPO took place before the relevant time period. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income plus interest expense, income tax expense, depreciation and amortization, sponsor fees, deferred rent, equity-based compensation, write-off of property and equipment, one-time IPO-related expenses, and fees associated with fundraising and reorganizing activities. The Company has reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures under “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures” in this release. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of the Company’s business and facilitate a more meaningful comparison of its diluted income per share and actual results on a period-over-period basis. The Company has provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of its ongoing operations. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these items differently than the Company does. Each of these measures is not a measure of performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.
