San Francisco, CA, November 17, 2011 — Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) today announced operating results for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 ended October 30, 2011 (“Q3 11”).

Subtotal of Unusual Business Events | | $0.00 | | $0.02 |
Non-GAAP Diluted EPS Excluding Unusual Business Events (Note 5)* | | $0.41 | | $0.35 |
* | Due to rounding to the nearest cent, totals may not equal the sum of the line items in the table above. |
During the quarter, the company repurchased 963,700 shares of its common stock, for approximately $31 million, and ended the quarter with $379 million in cash.
Laura Alber, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “The third quarter was another strong quarter for the company as comparable brand revenues increased 7% and non-GAAP diluted earnings per share increased 17% to a Q3 record of $0.41 per share. Innovative merchandising, personalized and event-triggered marketing, and a higher level of customer engagement drove these better-than-expected results as we continued to attract new customers to our brands. Non-GAAP operating margin increased 60 basis points to a Q3 record of 7.9%, while we continued to invest in our e-commerce, global expansion and business development initiatives.”

Alber continued, “As we enter into the fourth quarter, we are encouraged by the positive consumer response to our seasonal and holiday merchandise assortments, our strong value proposition, and our greatly enhanced multi-channel shopping experience. We believe all of these initiatives will allow us to continue to deliver leading results in the housewares and home furnishings categories. As such, we are reiterating our fourth quarter non-GAAP EPS guidance in the range of $1.15 to $1.20 per share and increasing our ‘full year guidance’ for the $0.02 outperformance we delivered in Q3. This brings our fiscal year 2011 net revenue growth to a range of 5% to 6% and our non-GAAP diluted EPS to a range of $2.21 to $2.26 versus $1.95 last year.”
Comparable brand revenue growth in Q3 11 increased 7.3% versus 12.5% in Q3 10 as shown in the table below. Comparable brand revenue growth includes both comparable store net revenues and total direct-to-customer net revenues. See Exhibit 2 for quarterly comparable brand revenue growth history by concept.
Third Quarter Comparable Brand Revenue Growth by Concept*
| | | | |
| | Q3 11 | | Q3 10 |
Pottery Barn | | 7.0% | | 16.1% |
Williams-Sonoma | | 0.1% | | 2.3% |
Pottery Barn Kids | | 5.2% | | 11.7% |
West Elm | | 27.0% | | 23.6% |
PBteen | | 6.5% | | 17.1% |
Total | | 7.3% | | 12.5% |
| * | See Exhibit 2 and the company’s 10-Q filing for the definition of comparable brand revenue growth. | |
Direct-to-customer (“DTC”) net revenues in Q3 11 increased 9.9% to $390 million versus $355 million in Q3 10, driven by increases across all brands, led by the Pottery Barn, West Elm and Pottery Barn Kids brands. E-commerce net revenues increased 14.6% to $339 million in Q3 11 versus $296 million in Q3 10. DTC net revenues generated 45% of total company net revenues in Q3 11 versus 43% in Q3 10, representing a channel mix shift of 200 basis points.
Retail net revenues in Q3 11 increased 3.6% to $478 million versus $461 million in Q3 10, primarily driven by the West Elm and Pottery Barn brands and international franchise operations. Retail leased square footage (“LSF”) decreased 4.0%, including the closure of our Williams-Sonoma Home stores at the end of FY 10. Excluding the Williams-Sonoma Home stores, retail net revenues increased 5.1%. Comparable store sales in Q3 11 increased 6.3% versus 8.1% in Q3 10.
Gross margin expressed as a percentage of net revenues in Q3 11 was 38.3% versus 38.2% in Q3 10. This 10 basis point improvement was primarily driven by the leverage of fixed occupancy expenses due to increasing net revenues and a decrease in occupancy expense dollars. This improvement was partially offset by lower selling margins and the gross margin impact of international franchise operations.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses in Q3 11 were $263 million or 30.4% of net revenues versus $255 million or 31.3% in Q3 10. Excluding the 40 basis point impact related to unusual business events in Q3 10, non-GAAP SG&A expenses were $263 million or 30.4% of net revenues in Q3 11 versus $252 million or 30.9% in Q3 10 (see Note 3 in Exhibit 1). This 50 basis point decrease was primarily driven by lower advertising costs, a reduction in other general expenses and overall leverage from increased international franchise operations net revenues. This improvement was partially offset by higher employment which is reflective of our planned incremental investment to support our e-commerce, global expansion and business development growth strategies.
Merchandise inventories at the end of Q3 11 increased 6.9% to $627 million versus $586 million at the end of Q3 10. This compares to Q3 11 revenue growth of 6.3%.

SEC REGULATION G — NON-GAAP INFORMATION

| | |
Note 1: | | Asset Impairment and Early Lease Termination Charges for Underperforming Retail Stores (FY 11) – During Q1 11, we incurred charges associated with asset impairment and early lease terminations of approximately $0.01 per diluted share or approximately 20 basis points of SG&A expenses within the retail segment. During Q2 11, we incurred charges associated with early lease terminations of approximately $0.00 per diluted share or less than 10 basis points of SG&A expenses and less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin within the retail segment. During Q3 11, we incurred charges associated with early lease terminations of approximately $0.00 per diluted share or less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin within the retail segment. We anticipate these charges will result in an impact to SG&A expenses of approximately 10 basis points for FY 11. |
| |
Note 2: | | Impact of Accelerated Vesting Charge Associated with CEO Retirement – On January 26, 2010, we announced the retirement of the company’s former CEO and an associated retirement charge of approximately $0.025 per diluted share. During Q1 10 and Q2 10, these charges resulted in an impact of approximately $0.02 and $0.01 per diluted share, respectively, or approximately 50 and 10 basis points of SG&A expenses, respectively, within the unallocated segment. Due to the effect of quarterly rounding to the nearest cent per diluted share, there was an impact of $0.02 per diluted share, or 10 basis points of SG&A expenses, for FY 10. |
16
| | |
| |
Note 3: | | Asset Impairment and Early Lease Termination Charges for Underperforming Retail Stores (FY 10) – During Q1 10, we incurred charges associated with asset impairment and early lease terminations of approximately $0.03 per diluted share, or approximately 80 basis points within SG&A expenses and an approximate 10 basis point impact to gross margin. During Q2 10, we incurred charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share, or approximately 50 basis points within SG&A expenses and less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin. During Q3 10, we incurred charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share, or approximately 40 basis points within SG&A expenses and less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin. For Q4 10, we incurred additional charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share, or approximately 30 basis points within SG&A expenses and less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin. For FY 10, we incurred total charges of approximately $0.10 per diluted share, or approximately 50 basis points within SG&A expenses and less than a 10 basis point impact to gross margin. All of these charges were recorded within the retail segment. |
| |
Note 4: | | Impact of Exiting Excess Distribution Capacity – During Q2 10, we recorded a credit of $0.4 million in SG&A within the unallocated segment against previous charges recorded in FY 09 associated with the early exit of excess distribution capacity. This benefit was less than $0.01 per diluted share and less than 10 basis points of SG&A expenses in both Q2 10 and FY 10. |
| |
Note 5: | | SEC Regulation G – Non-GAAP Information – This table includes one non-GAAP financial measure, Diluted EPS Excluding Unusual Business Events. We believe that this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of our quarterly and FY 11 diluted EPS actual results and guidance on a comparable basis with our quarterly and FY 10 results. Our management uses this non-GAAP financial measure in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. This non-GAAP financial measure should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. |
