Hastings Entertainment, Inc. Reports Results for the Second
Quarter of Fiscal 2013
AMARILLO, Texas, August 19, 2013—Hastings Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: HAST), a leading multimedia entertainment retailer, today reported results for the three and six months ended July 31, 2013. Net loss was approximately $4.1 million, or $0.50 per diluted share, for the three months ended July 31, 2013 compared to a net loss of approximately $3.4 million, or $0.41 per diluted share, for the three months ended July 31, 2012. Net loss was approximately $6.3 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, for the six months ended July 31, 2013 compared to net loss of $2.5 million, or $0.31 per diluted share, for the six months ended July 31, 2012.
“Our revenues continue to be negatively impacted by the popularity of digital delivery, rental kiosks and subscription based services, as well as the longevity of the current video game console life-cycle,” said John H. Marmaduke, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman. “Additionally, our second quarter book and rental revenues were negatively impacted by a relatively weak new release schedule. The decline in sales of theFifty Shades trilogy, when compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012, accounted for over half of our decline in book revenues. As we have previously disclosed, one of our strategic initiatives is the introduction of new product categories which includes consumer electronics, music electronics and accessories, hobby, recreation and lifestyle, vinyl and tablets. The majority of these products are included in our Electronics category which had a comparable sales increase of 17.2% for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 which is on top of a 5.4% comparable sales increase for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. Several of the remaining new categories are included in our Trends department which had a 10.7% increase for the second quarter of fiscal 2013 which is on top of an 11.2% increase for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. This was driven by the forty-four stores that were reset during fiscal 2012 and nineteen stores reset by the first week of July for the current six month period. The Electronic and Trends departments in these reset stores had significant increases in revenues when compared to the rest of our superstores that have not had a reset. We are greatly encouraged by the performance of these new products and plan to reset an additional forty stores during fiscal 2013. Finally, we continue to see growth in our Movie and Hardback Café departments.
“In order to reduce our SG&A expenses in light of our lower revenue base, we underwent a restructuring of our corporate store support center which included staff reduction, department consolidation and the termination of four of our eight corporate officers. The total cost of this restructuring was approximately $1.4 million which we recognized during the first quarter of fiscal 2013. Additionally, we have closed eight underperforming stores thus far in fiscal 2013, with plans to close an additional store by the end of the fiscal year. For the six months ended July 31, 2013 we have reduced selling, general and administrative expenses by approximately $5.0 million excluding the restructuring charge.
“With the current and expected future success of our new product categories, along with the expected launch of new game consoles in the latter half of our current fiscal year as well as an expected stronger release schedule for games and movies, we are encouraged with our earnings prospects for the second half of our current fiscal year.”
Financial Results for the Second Quarter of Fiscal Year 2013
Revenues. Total revenues for the second quarter decreased approximately $8.3 million, or 7.9%, to $95.8 million compared to $104.1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2012. As of July 31, 2013, we operated 8 fewer superstores, as compared to July 31, 2012. The following is a summary of our revenues results (dollars in thousands):

Total | -6.2 | % | ||

Below is a summary of the Comp results for our major merchandise categories:
Three Months Ended July 31, | ||||||||
2013 | 2012 | |||||||
Trends | 10.7 | % | 11.2 | % | ||||
Electronics | 7.2 | % | 5.4 | % | ||||

Games | -14.8 | % | -22.8 | % | ||||
Books | -14.9 | % | 2.5 | % |
Trends Comps increased 10.7% for the quarter, primarily due to increased sales in action figures, novelty toy gifts, barware, licensed and branded products, and recreation and lifestyles products. Licensed and branded products for which we experienced strong sales during the quarter wereMinecraft,Duck Dynasty andMy Little Pony. The Trends department also includes recreation and lifestyles products whose growth was driven by the addition of hobby products to reset stores as well as the growth in the existing categories of skateboards, disc golf, exercise accessories and airsoft products. Electronics Comps increased 7.2% for the quarter, primarily due to increased sales in categories such as speaker systems, tablets and accessories, home entertainment, wireless phone accessories, gadgets and turntables. Expanded product categories such as televisions, fitness electronics, kids electronics, home security and app enhanced accessories also showed strong growth. Movies Comps increased 2.9% for the quarter, primarily due to increased sales of new DVD Boxed Sets and new Midline DVD movies, partially offset by declining sales in used DVD movies. Hardback Café Comps increased 2.7% for the quarter, primarily due to increased sales in hot and cold beverages, partially offset by decreased sales in blended beverages. Consumables Comps decreased 6.1% for the quarter, primarily due to weaker sales of bottle drinks, fountain drinks and everyday consumable items. Music Comps decreased 10.9% for the quarter, primarily resulting from lower sales of new and used CDs and the continued increase in popularity of digital delivery. Games Comps decreased 14.8% for the quarter, primarily due to lower sales of new and used video game consoles and accessories and used video games. The longevity of the current console cycle continues to contribute to weak overall sales in the video game industry. Book Comps decreased 14.9% for the quarter, primarily due to a decrease in trade paperback sales as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 which included strong sales from theFifty Shades trilogy, and to a lesser extent, a weaker release schedule for new books.
Rental Comps decreased 10.9% for the quarter primarily due to fewer rentals of DVDs and video games, partially offset by an increase in rentals of Blu-ray movies. Rental Movie Comps decreased 9.5% for the quarter partially due to a weaker new release schedule during the quarter as compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2012 and the continued impact of competitor rental kiosks and subscription-based rental services. Rental Video Game Comps, which continue to be affected by the longevity of the current console cycle, decreased 23.1%.
Gross Profit – Merchandise.For the second quarter, total merchandise gross profit dollars decreased approximately $3.2 million, or 10.6%, to $27.1 million from $30.3 million for the same period in the prior year. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in revenue, which is partially attributed to operating fewer superstores this quarter compared to the same period in the prior year, combined with a decline in gross profit margin rate. As a percentage of total merchandise revenue, merchandise gross profit decreased to 32.7% for the quarter compared to 33.9% for the same period in the prior year, resulting primarily from a continued shift in mix of revenues by category, higher shrinkage and a higher expense to return products.
Gross Profit – Rental.For the second quarter, total rental gross profit dollars decreased approximately $1.6 million, or 16.0%, to $8.4 million from $10.0 million for the same period in the prior year. This decrease is primarily due to a decrease in revenue which is partially attributed to operating fewer superstores this quarter compared to the same period in the prior year. As a percentage of total rental revenue, rental gross profit decreased to 65.4% for the quarter compared to 66.6% for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in revenues under revenue sharing agreements which generally have lower margins when compared to traditional agreements.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”).As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A decreased to 41.1% for the second quarter compared to 41.4% for the same period in the prior year. SG&A decreased approximately $3.6 million during the quarter, or 8.4%, to $39.4 million compared to $43.0 million for the same quarter last year. The decrease results primarily from a $1.5 million reduction in corporate salary expense due to lower bonus payouts and the restructuring that took place in the first quarter of fiscal 2013, $1.0 million reduction in store labor expense, a decrease of $0.7 million in store advertising and a $0.6 million decrease in depreciation expense. The decrease in depreciation expense and, to a certain extent, the decrease in store labor expense, are primarily a result of operating fewer superstores this quarter compared to the same period in the prior year. These reductions were partially offset by a $0.3 million increase in store maintenance expense.
Interest Expense.For both the second quarter of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, interest expense was approximately $0.3 million, as interest rates for both periods averaged 2.5%.
Income Tax Expense.The effective tax rate for the second quarter was (1.3%) primarily due to Texas state income tax, which is based primarily on gross margin.
Financial Results for the Six Months Ended July 31, 2013
Revenues. Total revenues for the six months ended July 31, 2013 decreased approximately $14.6 million, or 6.7%, to $204.9 million compared to $219.5 million for the six months ended July 31, 2012. The following is a summary of our revenues results (dollars in thousands):

Electronics Comps increased 14.1% for the period, primarily due to increased sales in categories such as home entertainment, speaker docks, tablets and accessories, turntables and wireless phone accessories. Strong growth was also realized in expanding categories such as fitness electronics, kids electronics, and app enhanced accessories. Trends Comps increased 9.6% for the period, primarily due to increased sales in action figures, novelty toy gifts, barware, licensed and branded products, and recreation and lifestyles products. Licensed and branded products that did well during the period wereWalking Dead,Sons of Anarchy, andDoctor Who. The Trends department also includes recreation and lifestyles products whose growth was driven by the addition of hobby products to reset stores as well as the growth in the existing categories of skateboards, disc golf, exercise accessories and airsoft products. Hardback Café Comps increased 5.7% for the period, primarily due to increased sales in hot, cold and blended beverages. Movies Comps increased 3.9% for the period, primarily due to increased sales of new DVD Boxed Sets, new Blu-Ray and DVD Midline movies, partially offset by declining sales in used DVD movies. Consumables Comps decreased 4.2% for the period, primarily due to weaker sales of bottle drinks, fountain drinks and everyday consumable items. Book Comps decreased 11.4% for the period, primarily due to a decrease in trade paperback and hardback sales as compared to the first half of fiscal 2012 which included strong sales from theFifty Shadesand Hunger Gamestrilogies, and a weaker release schedule for new books. Music Comps decreased 11.6% for the period, primarily resulting from lower sales of new and used CDs and the continued increase in popularity of digital delivery. The decrease is partially offset by an increase in new vinyl album sales. Games Comps decreased 18.0% for the period, primarily due to lower sales of new and used video game consoles and accessories, and used video games. The longevity of the current console cycle continues to contribute to weak overall sales in the video game industry.
Rental Comps decreased 9.3% for the period primarily due to fewer rentals of DVDs and video games, partially offset by an increase in rentals of Blu-ray movies. Rental Movie Comps decreased 7.8% for the period and continue to be impacted by competitor rental kiosks and subscription-based rental services. Rental Video Game Comps, which continue to be affected by the longevity of the current console cycle, decreased 22.2%.
Gross Profit – Merchandise.For the current six months, total merchandise gross profit dollars decreased approximately $4.8 million, or 7.7%, to $57.5 million from $62.3 million for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a decrease in revenue which is partially attributed to operating fewer superstores this period compared to the same period in the prior year. As a percentage of total merchandise revenue, merchandise gross profit decreased to 32.4% for the current six months, compared to 33.0% for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to a shift in mix of revenues by category, a higher expense to return products and markdown expenses which is partially offset by lower freight expense.
Gross Profit – Rental.For the current six months, total rental gross profit dollars decreased approximately $2.7 million, or 13.2%, to $17.7 million from $20.4 million for the same period in the prior year primarily due to a decrease in revenue which is partially attributed to operating fewer superstores this period compared to the same period in the prior year. As a percentage of total rental revenue, rental gross profit decreased to 65.4% for the current six month period compared to 65.9% for the same period in the prior year, primarily due to an increase in revenues under revenue sharing agreements which generally have lower margins when compared to traditional agreements. The rate decrease is partially offset by a decrease in depreciation and shrink expense.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”).As a percentage of total revenue, SG&A increased to 39.6% for the current six months compared to 38.4% for the same period in the prior year primarily due to deleveraging resulting from lower revenues. SG&A decreased approximately $3.2 million, or 3.8%, to $81.1 million compared to $84.3 million for the same period last year. The main drivers of the decrease in SG&A included a $1.0 million decrease in store labor expense, a $1.0 million decrease in depreciation expense, a $1.0 million decrease in store advertising expense and a $0.8 million decrease in corporate salary expense. The decrease in depreciation expense and, to a certain extent, the decrease in store labor expense, are primarily a result of operating fewer superstores this period compared to the same period in the prior year. The reductions were partially offset by an increase of $0.5 million in store maintenance expense.
Interest Expense.For both the first half of fiscal 2013 and fiscal 2012, interest expense was approximately $0.6 million, as interest rates for both periods averaged 2.5%.
Income Tax Expense.As the Company has a net operating loss and a net deferred tax asset, which has been offset by a full valuation allowance at the end of fiscal 2011, there is no tax liability, with the exception of Texas state income tax; therefore, the effective tax rate for the first half of fiscal 2013 is (1.8%). The valuation allowance is approximately $13.2 million as of July 31, 2013. We reassess the valuation allowance quarterly, and if future evidence allows for a partial or full release of the valuation allowance, a tax benefit will be recorded accordingly.
Stock Repurchases
During the second quarter of fiscal 2013, we purchased a total of 26,900 shares of common stock at a cost of $99,701, or $3.71 per share. We purchased these shares as part of a stock repurchase program originally announced in September 2001 and subsequently extended and expanded. As of July 31, 2013 a total of $5.6 million remained available under the stock repurchase program.
