ST. LOUIS--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Build-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (NYSE: BBW) today reported results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year 2021 ended January 29, 2022.
Sharon Price John, Build-A-Bear Workshop President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report outstanding results for fiscal 2021 including the company’s highest total revenues in more than a decade and record-breaking profitability. We attribute the majority of our positive performance to the cumulative effect of the disciplined execution of a multi-year strategy to elevate and monetize our iconic brand even with external pressures that have reshaped consumer shopping habits. We believe these wide-scale, long-horizon actions significantly contributed to our current success enabling us to evolve into a digitally-driven, diversified omnichannel entity enhanced by a dynamic and efficient vertical retail presence with a solid financial position to invest in growth initiatives.
“As we continue to focus on executing our strategy, we are pleased to have kicked-off our planned year-long celebration of Build-A-Bear’s milestone 25th anniversary in 2022 with positive momentum on a quarter-to-date basis. While we recognize that the external environment remains volatile with ongoing inflationary pressure, we believe we have the building blocks in place to drive further profitable growth to continue to enhance shareholder value,” concluded Ms. John.
Fourth Quarter 2021 Highlights (13 weeks ended January 29, 2022 compared to the 13 weeks ended January 30, 2021 and February 1, 2020):
-
Total revenues were $130.0 million, an increase of 38.8% from $93.7 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter, and a 24.3% increase from $104.6 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. The Company noted that the surge in COVID cases in the latter half of January 2022 led to constrained store labor and resulted in temporary store closures in 67 of its locations reducing store operating days in the month of January by 4.0%. The Company estimates its total revenues for the quarter were reduced by approximately $1.0 million as a result;
- Net retail sales were $125.6 million, a 36.8% increase compared to $91.9 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and a 24.8% increase compared to $100.7 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Consolidated e-commerce demand (orders generated online to be fulfilled from either the Company’s warehouse or its stores) increased 3.5% compared to the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter representing a penetration of 20.7% of net retail sales. E-commerce demand increased 114.7% compared to the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter; and
- Commercial and international franchise revenues were $4.3 million compared to $1.8 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and $3.9 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Gross profit margin was 53.5% compared to 50.2% in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and 50.4% in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. Gross profit margin expanded by 330 basis points compared to the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and 310 basis points versus the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. Gross profit margin expansion in the 2021 fourth quarter reflected increased leverage on fixed occupancy expense, partially offset by increased product and freight costs;
- Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $49.4 million, or 38.0% of total revenues, compared to $36.3 million, or 38.7% of total revenues in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and $45.1 million, or 43.1% of total revenues in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter. The increase in SG&A expenses as compared to the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter was driven by higher labor costs given the lifting of capacity restrictions and expanded operating hours in stores. In addition, the change in SG&A reflected an increase in variable costs driven by sales growth initiatives inclusive of higher marketing spend and performance incentive programs;
- Pre-tax income was $20.1 million, an improvement of $9.4 million compared to pre-tax income of $10.8 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter, and an improvement of $12.5 million compared to pre-tax income of $7.6 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Adjusted pre-tax income was $19.6 million compared to adjusted pre-tax income of $9.3 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and adjusted pre-tax income of $7.3 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Income tax benefit was $4.0 million in the fiscal 2021 fourth quarter reflecting the full reversal of the Company’s tax valuation allowance in North America of $7.8 million offset by $3.8 million of tax expense. This compares to income tax expense of $0.3 million in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and an income tax expense of $1.4 million in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Net income was $24.1 million, or $1.48 per diluted share, compared to net income of $10.5 million, or $0.67 per diluted share, in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and net income of $6.2 million, or $0.42 per diluted share, in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter;
- Adjusted net income was $15.8 million, or $0.97 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net income of $8.9 million, or $0.58 per diluted share, in the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and adjusted net income of $5.7 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter; and
- Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) was $23.3 million, an increase of $9.1 million from the fiscal 2020 fourth quarter and an increase of $12.3 million from the fiscal 2019 fourth quarter.

- Consolidated e-commerce demand (orders generated online to be fulfilled from either the Company’s warehouse or its stores) increased 8.5% compared to fiscal 2020, representing a penetration of 18.3% of net retail sales. E-commerce demand increased 156.1% compared to fiscal 2019;
- Pre-tax income was $50.7 million compared to pre-tax loss of ($20.2) million in fiscal 2020 and pre-tax income of $1.6 million in fiscal 2019;
- Income tax expense was $3.4 million, reflecting expense of $11.2 million partially offset by a full reversal of the Company’s tax valuation allowance in North America of $7.8 million, compared to expense of $2.8 million in fiscal 2020 and $1.3 million in fiscal 2019;
- Net income was $47.3 million, or $2.93 per diluted share, compared to net loss of ($23.0) million, or ($1.54) per diluted share, in fiscal 2020 and net income of $0.3 million, or $0.02 per diluted share, in fiscal 2019;
- Adjusted net income was $38.3 million, or $2.37 per diluted share, compared to adjusted net loss of ($13.7) million, or ($0.92) per diluted share, in fiscal 2020, and compared to adjusted net income of $0.1 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, for fiscal 2019;

Store Activity:
As of January 29, 2022, the Company had 346 corporately-managed stores. The Company maintains a high level of lease optionality with over 75% of locations having a lease event within the next three years.
The Company noted that its third-party retail model showed a return to stability as locations associated with relationships that include Carnival Cruise Lines, Great Wolf Lodge Resorts, Landry’s and Beaches Family Resorts were mostly reopened. Separately, international franchise locations continued to be negatively impacted by COVID and experienced closures or operated under restrictions for a portion of fiscal 2021.
Balance Sheet:
As of January 29, 2022, cash and cash equivalents totaled $32.8 million compared to $34.8 million as of January 30, 2021. During the fourth quarter, the Company returned $24.4 million in value to shareholders through $4.4 million of repurchases of common stock and payment of a $20.0 million special dividend. The ending cash balance also reflected increased investment in working capital. The Company ended the fiscal year with no borrowings under its revolving credit facility.
Total inventory at year-end was $73.6 million, an increase of $26.7 million from fiscal 2020 year-end and an increase of $20.2 million from fiscal 2019 year-end. The majority of the increase was related to in-transit inventory due to strategically planned accelerated purchases used to partially mitigate inflationary and supply chain COVID-related pressures and anticipated continued increases in product and freight costs. For fiscal 2021, capital expenditures totaled $8.1 million and depreciation and amortization was $12.3 million.
Share Repurchase Program:
As of January 29, 2022, the Company utilized $4.4 million in cash to repurchase 245,554 shares under its $25.0 million program that was authorized by its Board of Directors on November 30, 2021. As of March 9, 2022, the Company had utilized a total of $5.0 million under the program and currently has $20.0 million available.
2022 Outlook:
The Company noted that its positive momentum has continued into its fiscal 2022 first quarter and is providing guidance for total revenues and profit for the period. The Company expects to provide guidance on these metrics for the fiscal year at a future date as it monitors the evolving external environment, assesses ongoing inflationary pressure and the potential impact of stimulus on consumer spending in the prior year. For the first quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company currently expects:
- Total revenue to exceed first quarter of fiscal 2021; and
- Pretax income and EBITDA to exceed the record profitability of first quarter of fiscal 2021.
In addition, for fiscal 2022, the Company currently expects capital expenditures to approximate $10 to $15 million and for depreciation and amortization to be in the range of $12 to $14 million. The Company expects an income tax rate of approximately 25% in fiscal 2022.
Note Regarding 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 income and income per diluted share adjusted to exclude certain costs and accounting adjustments, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These results are included as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP because management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company’s business and provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company’s on-going operating results. These measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. These non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure later in this document.
