SIDNEY, Neb.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Cabela's Incorporated (NYSE:CAB) today reported financial results for third quarter fiscal 2014.
For the quarter, total revenue increased 4.1% to $886.0 million; Retail store revenue increased 8.7% to $598.7 million; Direct revenue decreased 11.7% to $175.3 million; and Financial Services revenue increased 10.9% to $109.1 million. During the period, comparable store sales decreased 11.2%.
For the quarter, adjusted for certain items, net income increased 18.8% to $58.3 million compared to $49.1 million in the year ago quarter, and earnings per diluted share were $0.81 compared to $0.69 in the year ago quarter. The Company reported GAAP net income of $53.8 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.75 as compared to GAAP net income of $49.9 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.70 in the year ago quarter. Third quarter 2014 GAAP results included provisions for income taxes related to an increase in tax reserves for prior years' matters of $0.05 in earnings per diluted share. See the supporting schedules to this earnings release labeled “Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.
“For the quarter, we were pleased operating margin improved from 9.0% to 10.6% and new stores significantly outperformed legacy stores in sales and profit per square foot," said Tommy Millner, Cabela's Chief Executive Officer. "We are less pleased that the rebound in revenue, following the firearms and ammunition surge of the last two years, is occurring slower than expected and as a result comparable store sales declined 11.2%. In addition to strong new store performance, we were encouraged by the performance of Cabela's CLUB and expense management in the quarter."
“For the trailing twelve months, our 20 new format stores opened for the full period outperformed our legacy store base by 40-60% in both sales and profit per square foot,” Millner said. “These new format stores averaged sales per square foot of nearly $460. With this strong new store performance, our retail store expansion remains on track with plans to open 13 to 15 new stores per year over the next several years. During the quarter, we opened six new stores, marking our entrance into several significant markets, including Buffalo, NY; Atlanta, GA; Portland, OR; Ontario, Canada; and British Columbia, Canada.”
"Thanks to the hard work and dedication of our outfitters, in the face of the slower sales recovery, we successfully controlled expense growth in the quarter," Millner said. "Additionally, during the quarter, we reduced anticipated incentive compensation by the $11.8 million previously recognized in the first half of the year. Reductions of professional fees and other corporate overhead also contributed to cost savings in the quarter."
"For the quarter, our Cabela’s branded product sales penetration increased by 100 basis points," Millner said. "The launch of our Instinct™ line has been a success with positive customer reactions to this new innovative line of products. Along with the Instinct™ line, we have had positive customer response to our Cabela’s Guidewear®, Cabela’s XPG™, and Wildlife and Land Management products. These results give us confidence in the prospects for future growth in Cabela’s branded products."
During the quarter, merchandise gross margin decreased 100 basis points to 36.3% from 37.3% in the same quarter a year ago. Approximately 60 basis points of this decrease is due to the previously announced adjustment in the presentation of reimbursement between segments. As a reminder, this new presentation, initiated in the second quarter, will be ongoing and has no impact on consolidated operating income or earnings per diluted share. See the "Selected Financial Data" table located herein for a more detailed explanation of this adjustment.
Direct revenue declined 11.7% in the quarter. The decline in direct revenue was primarily attributable to a greater than expected decline in ammunition and shooting related products versus last year's surge levels. Technology and mobility improvements continue to enhance the omni-channel experience. These improvements include mobile point of sale, streamlined checkout on mobile devices and improvements in omni-channel promotions.
The third quarter effective tax rate was 40.0% compared to 31.3% in the same quarter a year ago. The increase in effective tax rate is due to an increase of $4.0 million in accrued income tax related to tax adjustments attributable to changes in the mix of prior year taxable income between the United States and foreign tax jurisdictions and an increase in the state effective tax rate. The fourth quarter 2014 effective tax rate is expected to be between 34.5% and 35.5%.
The Cabela's CLUB Visa program had another solid quarter and continued to build a base of extremely loyal customers. CLUB members shop more frequently and have higher average spend. During the quarter, growth in the average number of active credit card accounts was 7.5% due to new customer acquisitions in our Retail and Internet channels. Growth in the average balance per active credit card account was 5.2%, and growth in the average balance of credit card loans was 13.0%. For the quarter, net charge-offs remained at historically low levels of 1.56% compared to 1.72% in the prior year quarter. Increased Financial Services revenue was driven by increases in interest and fee income as well as interchange income.
"In light of the slower than expected rebound from the surge, we are adjusting our full year guidance," Millner said. "Thus far in October, comparable store sales have improved over third quarter levels, and we now expect fourth quarter comparable store sales to decrease at a mid-single digit rate and total revenue to grow at a high single digit rate. Based on these revenue projections, we expect full year 2014 adjusted earnings per diluted share to be between $3.10 and $3.20. While our 2015 budget is not yet finalized, we expect to return to a low double digit growth rate in both revenue and diluted earnings per share for full year 2015."

| RECONCILIATION OF GAAP REPORTED TO NON-GAAP ADJUSTED FINANCIAL MEASURES (1) |
| (Unaudited) |
To supplement our consolidated statements of income presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we are providing non-GAAP adjusted financial measures of operating results that exclude certain items. Total revenue; selling, distribution, and administrative expenses; impairment and restructuring charges; operating income; operating income as a percentage of total revenue; income before provision for income taxes; provision for income taxes; net income; and earnings per diluted share are presented below both as GAAP reported and non-GAAP financial measures excluding (i) adjustments to interchange income for the Visa settlement recorded in the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013, (ii) incremental expenses primarily related to the transition to a third-party logistics provider and the closing of our current Canada distribution center recorded in the three and nine months ended September 27, 2014, and certain employee related expenses recorded in the three and nine months ended September 28, 2013, (iii) impairment and restructuring charges recorded in the nine months ended September 27, 2014, and September 28, 2013, and (iv) adjustments to the provision for income taxes related to changes in our assessments of uncertain tax positions recorded in the three and nine months ended September 27, 2014. In light of the nature and magnitude, we believe these items should be presented separately to enhance a reader's overall understanding of the Company's ongoing operations. These non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should be considered in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures.
We believe these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of our ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. In addition, we evaluate results using non-GAAP adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per diluted share. These non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, earnings per diluted share, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The following tables reconcile these financial measures to the related GAAP adjusted financial measures for the periods presented.
