Operating profit represents gross profit less selling and administrative expenses and other operating income or expense. The "Other" segment includes Corporate selling and administrative expenses, which are not allocated to the operating units and the Company's investment in Shoes.com, Inc., a footwear e-commerce company.
Note E - New Accounting Standard
On February 4, 2001, the Company adopted Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." The statement establishes standards for recognition and measurement of derivatives and hedging activities. In adoption of this standard at the beginning of fiscal 2001, the Company recorded a cumulative transition adjustment to increase Other Comprehensive Income by $0.3 million (net of tax), to recognize the fair value of its derivative instruments. The Company expects to reclassify all of the transition adjustment into earnings in 2001.
The Company uses derivative financial instruments, primarily foreign exchange contracts and interest rate swaps, to reduce its exposure to market risks from changes in foreign exchange rates and interest rates. These derivatives, designated as cash flow hedges, are used to hedge the procurement of footwear from foreign countries and the variability of cash flows paid on variable-rate debt. The terms of these instruments are generally less than one year. The effective portions of changes in the fair value of derivatives are recorded in Other Comprehensive Income and reclassified to earnings when the hedged item affects earnings. The ineffective portions of changes in the fair value of cash flow hedges are immediately recognized in earnings.
During the first quarter of fiscal 2001, changes in fair value of derivatives and reclassifications from Other Comprehensive Income to earnings reduced the initial transition adjustment, resulting in an increase in Other Comprehensive Income of $45,000, net of tax, for the quarter. Hedge ineffectiveness for the first quarter of 2001 was immaterial.
7
Note F - Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Brown Shoe Company, Inc. and its wholly-owned and majority-owned subsidiaries, after the elimination of intercompany accounts and transactions. Prior to the first quarter of 2001, the accounts of the Company's Brown Pagoda division were consolidated on a calendar year basis, which was approximately one month earlier than the rest of the Company. In the first quarter of 2001, this one-month reporting lag was eliminated to provide uniform reporting. As a result, the earnings for this division in the month of January, 2001 of $0.2 million were credited directly to Retained Earnings.
Note G - Condensed Consolidated Financial Information
Certain of the Company's debt is fully unconditionally and jointly and severally guaranteed by certain wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries and the Canadian subsidiary of the Company. Accordingly, condensed consolidating balance sheets as of May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000, and the related condensed consolidating statements of earnings and cash flows for the thirteen weeks ended May 5, 2001 and April 29, 2000 are provided. These condensed consolidating financial statements have been prepared using the equity method of accounting in accordance with the requirements for presentation of such information. Management believes this information, presented in lieu of complete financial statements for each of the guarantor subsidiaries, provides meaningful information to allow investors to determine the nature of the assets held by, and the operations and cash flows of, each of the consolidating groups.

ITEM 2 - MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Results of Operations
Quarter ended May 5, 2001 compared to the Quarter ended April 29, 2000
Consolidated net sales for the first quarter ended May 5, 2001 were $436.1 million compared to $394.8 million in the quarter ended April 29, 2000. Net earnings of $6.4 million for the first quarter of 2001 compares to net earnings of $6.5 million in the first quarter of 2000. Diluted earnings per share was $.36 in both years.
Famous Footwear achieved a sales increase of 7.9% during the first quarter of 2001 to $255.7 million. The increase was driven by 49 more stores (including 26 stores acquired in August 2000 located primarily in the Milwaukee, Wisconsin area), resulting in a total of 919 stores in operation, partially offset by a 3.7% same-store sales decline. Operating earnings for the first quarter of 2001 decreased 10.6% to $9.9 million from $11.0 million last year, due to the lower same-store sales. Reduced traffic in outlet center stores combined with advertising that coincided with poor weather early in the quarter contributed to the decline in same-store sales.
The Company's wholesale operations had net sales of $129.4 million during the first quarter of 2001 compared to $110.8 million last year. This sales increase was primarily due to higher sales of Naturalizer branded product as well as private label women's and children's product. Operating earnings of $11.4 million increased from $8.1 million in the first quarter of 2000 primarily as a result of the higher sales.
In the Company's Naturalizer Retail operations, including stores in both the United States and Canada, net sales increased 8.5% to $51.0 million in the first quarter of 2001. Same-store sales in the first quarter of 2001 increased 5.9% in the United States and 15.1% in Canada. The Company had 19 less stores in operation in the United States in 2001 and had 14 more stores in operation in Canada than in 2000. At the end of the first quarter of 2001, 475 stores were in operation including 320 stores in the United States and 155 stores in Canada. Total Naturalizer Retail operations reported an operating loss of $.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2001 compared to a loss of $1.7 million in 2000. The improvement was primarily due to the higher sales and was net of a charge of approximately $0.6 million relating to the closure of underperforming stores during the first quarter of fiscal 2001.
Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales decreased to 40.1% from 41.0% during the same period last year. This decrease was primarily due to lower margins in the Company's wholesaling operations as a result of higher promotional activities, with some impact from the shift in the mix of business from retail to wholesale, which carries a lower gross profit rate.
13
Selling and administrative expenses as a percent of sales decreased to 36.7% from 37.5% during the same period last year. This decrease was due to lower expenses within the wholesale operations partially offset by higher expenses within the retail operations and a lower mix of retail sales, which carry a higher expense rate.
The consolidated tax rate was 32.0% of pre-tax income for the first quarter of 2001 compared to 34.1% last year. The decrease from last year's effective tax rate reflects a projected lower annual effective tax rate for fiscal 2001 than was anticipated for fiscal 2000 at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2000.
Financial Condition
A summary of key financial data and ratios at the dates indicated is as follows:
| May 5, 2001
| | April 29, 2000
| | February 3, 2001
|
| | | | | |
Working Capital (millions) | $254.8 | | $274.3 | | 266.5 |
| | | | | |
Current Ratio | 1.8:1 | | 2.1:1 | | 1.9:1 |
| | | | | |
Total Debt as a Percentage of Total Capitalization | 46.5% | | 42.6% | | 45.8% |
Cash usage from operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2001 was $14.2 million versus $11.4 million last year. This decline resulted primarily from a smaller reduction in accounts receivable compared to last year due to higher sales in the Company's wholesale operations.
The increase in the ratio of total debt as a percentage of total capitalization at May 5, 2001, compared to the end of fiscal 2000, is due to cash usage in the first quarter related to a seasonal increase in inventories. At May 5, 2001, $75.0 million was borrowed and $7.4 million of letters of credit were outstanding under the Company's $165.0 million revolving bank Credit Agreement.
In May 2000, the Company announced a stock repurchase program under which the Company was authorized to repurchase up to 2 million shares of the Company's outstanding common stock. In the first quarter of fiscal 2001, the Company purchased 122,400 shares at a cost of $2.2 million under this authorization. Through the end of the first quarter of 2001, the Company has repurchased a total of 905,400 shares for approximately $10.9 million under this authorization.
