DENTON, Texas, November 12, 2015 — Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: SBH) (the “Company”) today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended September 30, 2015. The Company will hold a conference call today at 10:00 a.m. (Central) to discuss these results and its business.
“We finished the year with solid consolidated same store sales growth of 3.5% in the fourth quarter,” stated Chris Brickman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we generated $301 million in operating cash flow in fiscal 2015 and repurchased approximately $228 million, or 8.1 million shares of our common stock.”
“In the back half of fiscal 2015, we implemented sales and profit improvement initiatives that we now expect will largely offset anticipated cost headwinds and allow for steady profit growth for SBH in fiscal 2016,” Brickman added. “In addition, we are excited about the pipeline of sales growth initiatives for the coming fiscal year, including the completion of owned-brand packaging upgrades, the reset of haircare and hair color categories, as well as the introduction of local TV and radio advertising. These new investments, combined with all of the projects and upgrades completed during fiscal 2015, will create significant points of difference and a modern image for Sally. As a result, we believe we are well on our way to reframing and repositioning the Sally brand to be more meaningful to the next generation of consumers.”

(1) Includes 318 and 339 distributor sales consultants as reported by our franchisees at September 30, 2015 and 2014, respectively.
(2) For the purpose of calculating our same store sales metrics, we compare the current period sales for stores open for 14 months or longer as of the last day of a month with the sales for these stores for the comparable period in the prior fiscal year. Our same store sales are calculated in constant U.S. dollars and include internet-based sales and the effect of store expansions, if applicable, but do not generally include the sales of stores relocated until 14 months after the relocation. The sales of stores acquired are excluded from our same store sales calculation until 14 months after the acquisition.
