THE TILE SHOP REPORTS SECOND QUARTER 2016 RESULTS
8.2% Comparable Store Sales Growth
38.8% Operating Income Growth
22.5% Adjusted EBITDA Margin and 22.3% Adjusted EBITDA Growth
Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.13, growth of 44.4%
Non-GAAP Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.14, growth of 55.6%
MINNEAPOLIS – July 19, 2016 – Tile Shop Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: TTS) (the “Company”), a specialty retailer of manufactured and natural stone tiles, setting and maintenance materials, and related accessories, today announced results for its second quarter ended June 30, 2016.
Net sales grew 11.3% to $84.3 million for the second quarter of 2016 compared with $75.7 million for the second quarter of 2015. The $8.6 million increase in net sales was due to a comparable store sales increase of 8.2%, or $6.2 million in the quarter and incremental net sales of $2.4 million from stores not included in the comparable store base.
“We are pleased to report a second quarter with very strong results for our business” said Chris Homeister, CEO. “We continue to deliver against our key initiatives and the outcome was another quarter with outstanding sales performance and significant earnings growth. We are eager to build upon our first half accomplishments as we seek to deliver significant growth in sales, operating margins and earnings per share throughout the remainder of 2016 and beyond.”
Gross margin for the second quarter of 2016 was 69.7% compared with 67.8% for the second quarter of 2015. The increased gross margin rate from the prior year was driven primarily by lower net costs related to customer freight and less discounting activity.
Selling, general and administrative costs for the second quarter of 2016 were $47.0 million compared with $42.9 million for the second quarter of 2015. The $4.1 million increase was primarily driven by variable expenses associated with revenue growth and the costs associated with opening and operating new stores.
The Company opened three new stores in the second quarter of 2016. A sixth store in the greater Philadelphia, PA market in Deptford, NJ, a sixth store in the greater Dallas, TX market in the Dallas Design District and a store in Nanuet, NY. The Company noted that its last six store openings had capitalized build out costs that were approximately twenty percent lower than the historical $1.4 million investment to build a store. “A significant amount of time and effort has been placed against reducing the capital outlay associated with our new store openings” said Homeister. “Our latest openings give us confidence in building new stores that require a significantly lower average capital investment. This meaningful improvement will benefit our future cash flows and return on capital while providing the same premium shopping experience we have always delivered to our customers”.
The Company also noted its store in Coon Rapids, MN will be relocating within the Twin Cities market in the third quarter. As of today, the Company operates 117 stores in 31 states.
For the six months ended June 30, 2016, net sales grew 13.7% from $148.7 million in 2015 to $169.0 million in 2016. Comparable store sales for the six month period increased 10.6%.
The Company also announced today the introduction of a digital Design Studio capability in all stores and online.

On a non-GAAP basis, net income for the second quarter of 2016 was $7.1 million compared with $4.8 million for the second quarter of 2015. Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of 2016 were $0.14 compared with $0.09 for the second quarter of 2015, representing 55.6% growth.

About Tile Shop Holdings and The Tile Shop
The Tile Shop is a specialty retailer of manufactured and natural stone tiles, setting and maintenance materials, and related accessories in the United States. The Company offers a wide selection of high quality products, exclusive designs, knowledgeable staff and exceptional customer service, in an extensive showroom environment with up to 50 full-room tiled displays. The Tile Shop currently operates 117 stores in 31 states, with an average size of 21,600 square feet and sells products online at www.tileshop.com.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusting for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, stock based compensation and special charges related to litigation, primarily shareholder litigation. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. Non-GAAP net income excludes special charges related to litigation costs, primarily shareholder litigation, and losses incurred in connection with the renegotiation of debt, and is net of tax.
We believe that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to our financial condition and results of operations. Our management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare our performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation, and for budgeting and planning purposes. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and our board of directors. We believe that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing our financial measures with other specialty retailers, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
3
Our management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in our consolidated financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. We urge investors to review the reconciliation of our non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate our business.
FORWARD LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release includes “forward looking statements” within the meaning of the “safe harbor” provisions of the United States Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements may be identified by the use of words such as “anticipate”, “believe”, “expect”, “estimate”, “plan”, “outlook”, and “project” and other similar expressions that predict or indicate future events or trends or that are not statements of historical matters. These forward looking statements include any statements regarding the Company’s strategic and operational plan and expected financial performance (including the financial performance of new stores). Forward looking statements should not be read as a guarantee of future performance or results, and will not necessarily be accurate indications of the times at, or by, which such performance or results will be achieved. Forward looking statements are based on information available at the time those statements are made and/or management’s good faith belief as of that time with respect to future events, and are subject to risks and uncertainties that could cause actual performance or results to differ materially from those expressed in or suggested by the forward looking statements, including but not limited to unforeseen events that may affect the retail market or the performance of the Company’s stores. The Company does not intend, and undertakes no duty, to update this information to reflect future events or circumstances. Investors are referred to the most recent reports filed with the SEC by the Company.

(1) In the first quarter of 2016, the Company adopted changes issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board involving the presentation of debt issuance costs. Under the new standard, debt issuance costs are to be presented on the entity's balance sheet as a direct deduction from the carrying value of the related debt liability. The Company applied the guidance on a retrospective basis; therefore, the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet has been updated to conform to the June 30, 2016 presentation. As a result, $0.4 million of debt issuance costs (previously reported in Other current assets and other assets) were reclassified to Other accrued liabilities, net in the December 31, 2015 Consolidated Balance Sheet.
