ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Brown Shoe Company, Inc. (NYSE: BWS) (www.brownshoe.com) today reported its second quarter 2011 financial results, with net sales of $628.1 million, an increase of 7.2% compared to second quarter 2010 net sales of $585.8 million.
The company reported a net loss of ($4.6) million, or ($0.11) per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $5.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, in the second quarter of 2010. On an adjusted* basis, the net loss was ($2.7) million, or ($0.06) per diluted share, compared to net earnings of $6.5 million, or $0.15 per diluted share in the second quarter of 2010. Gross profit margin in the second quarter of 2011 was 37.7% versus 40.7% in the second quarter of 2010.
“In the second quarter, not only were we up against record Famous Footwear comps, we also saw the overall toning category negatively impact sales at both Retail and Wholesale Operations,” said Diane Sullivan, president and chief executive officer of Brown Shoe. “Although we experienced year-over-year growth in net sales in the second quarter, we also saw a more rapid than expected decline in toning. During the quarter, we continued to review our investment in this category and reduced the carrying value of our entire toning inventory, which resulted in a write-down of $0.06 per diluted share.”
“In addition, while we are making progress in our SAP stabilization, it has cost us more in terms of dollars and effort than we had anticipated,” continued Sullivan. “In the second quarter, results were negatively impacted by $0.07 per diluted share due to increases in allowances and chargebacks, margin related to lost sales, and incremental stabilization costs.”
“Importantly, as part of the strategic review of our portfolio, today we announced an agreement to sell AND 1 for $55 million in cash, which will be used to pay down debt. We will continue completing this comprehensive review of our brands, in conjunction with evaluating our SG&A spend and reducing our costs during the second half,” concluded Sullivan.

Highlights
The 7.2% improvement in second quarter net sales was due to the company’s February 17 acquisition of American Sporting Goods (ASG), which accounted for 7.4% of consolidated second quarter net sales. ASG was also the primary contributor to the 24.6% improvement in Wholesale Operations net sales over the second quarter of 2010.
Famous Footwear reported a year-over-year decline in second quarter net sales of (0.7%). The decrease was primarily due to the significant deterioration in year-over-year toning sales, which was only partially offset by stronger running and sandal sales. Excluding toning, Famous Footwear net sales improved 3.2% over the second quarter of 2010.
In the second quarter, same store sales at Famous Footwear increased 0.2%. Excluding toning, the increase over the second quarter of 2010 was 3.9%. During the quarter, the company closed eight underperforming stores and added 12 new stores. When compared to the second quarter of 2010, the total number of stores declined to 1,116 from 1,128.
Consolidated gross profit decreased (0.8%) in the second quarter, while gross profit margin declined 300 basis points. The reduction in gross margin, when compared to the second quarter of 2010, was primarily due to the lower value of toning product at Famous Footwear, however, it was also negatively impacted by a shift in mix. For the second quarter, Retail and Wholesale Operations net sales were 65% and 35%, respectively, compared to 70% and 30% in the second quarter of 2010. Gross profit margins in the company’s Retail businesses are traditionally higher than in Wholesale Operations.
The second quarter 2011 GAAP loss per diluted share of ($0.11) included ($0.05) of costs for the ASG integration and related inventory purchase accounting adjustments and the early retirement of the company’s 2012 senior notes. Excluding these items, the adjusted loss was ($0.06) per diluted share. For the second quarter of 2010, GAAP earnings per diluted share of $0.12 included ($0.03) of costs related to the company’s information technology initiatives. Excluding these costs, adjusted earnings were $0.15 per diluted share.
Inventory at the end of the second quarter was $627.9 million, up 8.6% compared to $578.1 million in the second quarter of 2010, with the majority of the year-over-year increase due to the acquisition of ASG. Famous Footwear inventory was down 3.2%, while Wholesale Operations inventory was up 56.6%. ASG accounted for 78.5% of the inventory increase at Wholesale.
During the quarter, the company completed the issuance of its $200 million 7.125% senior notes due 2019 and the tender for its $150 million 8.75% senior notes due 2012. At quarter-end, Brown Shoe had $270.7 million in availability under its revolving credit facility and $62.6 million in cash and cash equivalents.
The company utilized its existing authorization to repurchase 2.2 million shares for $22.4 million, or $10.20 per share, during the second quarter. Early in the third quarter, the company completed its prior repurchase program. Additionally, the board of directors authorized a new stock repurchase program** of up to 2.5 million shares, displaying the confidence the company has in its business and long-term prospects, as well as honoring its commitment to return value to shareholders. The board also declared a quarterly dividend of $0.07 per share, payable Oct. 3, 2011, to shareholders of record on Sept. 16, 2011. This dividend will be the 355th consecutive quarterly dividend paid by the company.
Full Year 2011 Guidance
“We’ve taken a hard look at our potential earnings for both the back half and full year of 2011, and as a result, we now expect 2011 adjusted EPS of between $0.85 and $0.97,” said Mark Hood, chief financial officer of Brown Shoe. “Our guidance reflects our continued concern about any potential impact from the overall global economic uncertainty, consumer acceptance of pending price increases, and expected cost pressures.”

* Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In this press release, the Company’s financial results are provided both in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, the Company provides historic and estimated future net earnings and earnings per diluted share adjusted to exclude certain charges and recoveries, which are non-GAAP financial measures.

The stock repurchase authorization does not have an expiration date and the pace of repurchase activity will depend on factors such as levels of cash generation from operations, cash requirements for investments, repayment of debt, current stock price, and other factors. Brown Shoe may repurchase shares from time to time on the open market or in private transactions, including structured transactions. The stock repurchase program may be modified or discontinued at any time.

(1) In accordance with GAAP, purchase accounting rules require the company to record inventory at fair value (i.e., expected selling price less costs to sell) on the acquisition date. This results in lower than typical gross margins when the acquired inventory is sold. This adjustment reflects the elimination of the unfavorable impact of lower gross margins for ASG product sold in the first and second quarters of 2011. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
(2) A significant portion of the acquisition related expenses incurred in the first quarter of 2011 are not tax-deductible and therefore do not have a tax benefit allocated to those costs. In addition, certain acquisition costs recognized by the company in the fourth quarter of 2010 have, upon consummation of the ASG acquisition in the first quarter of 2011, become non-deductible. Therefore, the acquisition related costs line also reflects a $0.2 million increase in tax expense related to certain acquisition costs incurred during 2010. | |||||||||||||||||||||||
