Consolidated same store sales growth in the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter was 5.3% compared to 2.4% in the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter.
Consolidated net sales for fiscal year 2010 were $2.9 billion, an increase of 10.6% from fiscal year 2009, and include a positive impact from foreign currency exchange of $17.2 million, or 0.7% of sales.

(1) Interest rate swap agreements, with a notional amount of $350 million, expired on November 24, 2009 and did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment. The Company accounted for these interest rate swap transactions on a marked-to-market basis, whereby changes in the fair value increased or decreased interest expense. The Company reported changes in fair value as an adjustment to net earnings and earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures.
Gross Profit: Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter was $366.0 million, an increase of 14.4% over gross profit of $319.8 million for the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter.

For fiscal 2010, consolidated gross profit was $1.4 billion, an increase of 13.0% over fiscal 2009 gross profit. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 48.2%, a 100 basis point improvement from fiscal year 2009.
Gross profit margin improved in the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter and full year due to gross profit margin expansion in both business segments driven by improved product and customer mix, low cost sourcing, and improvement in Sally Beauty Supply’s International businesses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses: For the fiscal 2010 fourth quarter, consolidated selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, including unallocated corporate expenses and share-based compensation, were $258.5 million, or 34.6% of sales, a 40 basis point increase from the fiscal 2009 fourth quarter metric of 34.2% of sales and total SG&A expenses of $231.5 million. Fiscal 2010 fourth quarter SG&A expenses increased $27.0 million primarily due to continued investments associated with the Company’s loyalty programs, international expansion and share-based compensation. In addition, expenses associated with the opening of new stores and acquisitions such as rent, occupancy, and payroll expenses contributed to the year over year expense increase.
For fiscal year 2010, SG&A expenses, including unallocated corporate expenses and share-based compensation, were $1.0 billion, or 34.7% of sales, a 60 basis point increase from fiscal year 2009 metric of 34.1% of sales and total SG&A expenses of $899.4 million.
