| · | Net Sales $552 Million, Up 18% |
| · | Net Income $32 Million; Earnings Per Share $0.54, Comparable to Prior Year |
Atlanta, Georgia, April 26, 2012 – Carter’s, Inc. (NYSE:CRI), the largest branded marketer in the United States of apparel exclusively for babies and young children, today reported its first quarter 2012 results.
“We continue to see strong demand for our products in all channels of distribution,” said Michael D. Casey, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “The strength of our product offerings and effectiveness of our pricing, marketing, and supply chain initiatives are driving better results. We are forecasting good growth in sales and earnings this year, with more meaningful earnings growth expected in the second half driven by lower product costs.”
First Quarter of Fiscal 2012 compared to First Quarter of Fiscal 2011
Consolidated net sales increased $82.7 million, or 17.6%, to $551.7 million. Net domestic sales of the Company’s Carter’s brands increased $47.2 million, or 12.4%, to $426.7 million. Net domestic sales of the Company’s OshKosh B’gosh brand increased $4.2 million, or 5.7%, to $78.3 million. Net international sales to customers outside the United States increased $31.3 million to $46.7 million.
Operating income in the first quarter of 2012 was $53.8 million, an increase of $0.2 million, or 0.3%, from $53.6 million in the first quarter of 2011. First quarter 2012 pre-tax income includes expenses of approximately $1.8 million related to the planned closure of the Company’s Hogansville, Georgia distribution center in 2013 and the revaluation of contingent consideration associated with the June 2011 acquisition of Bonnie Togs, a retailer of children��s apparel in Canada. First quarter 2011 pre-tax income included approximately $1.0 million of expenses related to the acquisition of Bonnie Togs. Excluding the facility closure-related costs and the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted operating income in the first quarter of 2012 was $55.6 million, an increase of $0.9 million, or 1.7%, compared to $54.7 million in the first quarter of 2011.
Net income increased $0.2 million, or 0.5%, to $32.3 million, or $0.54 per diluted share, compared to $32.1 million, or $0.55 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011. Excluding the facility closure-related costs and the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted net income in the first quarter of 2012 increased $0.9 million, or 2.7%, to $33.7 million, or $0.56 per diluted share. This compares to adjusted net income of $32.8 million, or $0.56 per diluted share, in the first quarter of 2011.
A reconciliation of income as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) to adjusted income is provided at the end of this release.
Cash flow from operations in the first quarter of 2012 was $82.4 million, an increase of $73.1 million from the first quarter of 2011, principally due to favorable changes in net working capital.
Business Segment Results
As result of the Bonnie Togs acquisition in June 2011, the Company realigned its reportable segments. Effective October 1, 2011, the Company’s reportable segments include Carter's retail, Carter's wholesale, OshKosh retail, OshKosh wholesale, and international. Results for previous periods have been recast to conform to the realigned segment presentation.
Carter’s Segments
Carter’s retail segment sales increased $39.3 million, or 28.5%, to $177.2 million. The increase was driven by incremental sales of $17.8 million from new store openings, incremental sales of $14.1 million from eCommerce sales, and a comparable store sales increase of $8.5 million, or 6.7%. This growth was partially offset by a sales decrease of $1.0 million attributed to store closings. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company opened 16 Carter’s retail stores and closed three. As of the end of the first quarter, the Company operated 372 Carter’s retail stores in the United States.
Carter’s wholesale segment sales grew $7.9 million, or 3.3%, to $249.5 million reflecting increased demand for the Company’s Carter’s, Child of Mine, and Just One You brands, partially offset by lower off-price sales.
OshKosh B’gosh Segments
OshKosh retail segment sales increased $4.0 million, or 7.4%, to $58.0 million. The increase reflects incremental sales of $3.5 million from eCommerce sales, a comparable store sales increase of $2.3 million, or 4.7%, and incremental sales of $0.5 million from new store openings. This growth was partially offset by a sales decrease of $2.2 million attributed to store closings. During the first quarter of 2012, the Company closed two OshKosh retail stores. As of the end of the first quarter, the Company operated 168 OshKosh retail stores in the United States.
OshKosh wholesale segment sales increased $0.2 million, or 1.0%, to $20.3 million.
International Segment
International segment sales increased $31.3 million to $46.7 million, reflecting a benefit from the Bonnie Togs acquisition and higher wholesale sales. In the first quarter of 2012, the Company opened four stores in Canada. As of the end of the first quarter, the Company operated 69 stores in Canada.
2012 Business Outlook
For the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company expects net sales to increase approximately 20% over the second quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company expects adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding expenses totaling approximately $2 million related to the Bonnie Togs acquisition and the announced distribution center closure, or other items the Company believes to be nonrepresentative of underlying business performance, to be approximately $0.26 to $0.30, compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.23 in the second quarter of fiscal 2011.
For fiscal 2012, the Company expects net sales will increase approximately 9% to 11% over fiscal 2011. The Company expects adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding approximately $4 million to $5 million in expenses related to the Bonnie Togs acquisition, $3 million to $4 million in expenses related to the announced distribution center closure, or other items the Company believes to be nonrepresentative of underlying business performance, to increase approximately 20% to 25% compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $2.09 in fiscal 2011.
