Birmingham, Alabama (August 15, 2006)—Retailer Saks Incorporated (NYSE: SKS) (“Saks” or the “Company”) today announced results for the second quarter and six months ended July 29, 2006.
Overview of Results
Saks Incorporated recorded a net loss of $51.9 million, or $.38 per share, for the second quarter ended July 29, 2006. The quarter included net after-tax charges totaling $13.9 million, or $.10 per share, primarily consisting of (i) a $12.8 million, or $.09 per share, non-cash charge related to the treatment under Financial Accounting Standard 123(r) (“FAS 123(r)”) of the anti-dilutive adjustment made to outstanding options related to the Company’s $4 per share dividend and (ii) a $1.1 million, or $.01 per share, charge primarily related to asset impairments and dispositions.
In accordance with the provisions of FAS 123(r), which became effective at the beginning of the Company’s fiscal year, the Company recorded an after-tax non-cash $12.8 million charge related to the adjustment of the number of stock options and their associated exercise prices. As a result of the May 1, 2006 $4 per share dividend, the Human Resources Committee of the Company’s Board of Directors exercised its discretion under anti-dilution provisions of the Company’s employee stock option plans to adjust the exercise price and number of stock options to reflect the change in the share price on the May 2, 2006 ex-dividend date. The option holders received no incremental economic value from the anti-dilution adjustment; however, the application of the FAS 123(r) revaluation requirements resulted in a $12.8 million after-tax non-cash charge.
The current year quarter also included (amounts are net of taxes):
| • | | expenses of approximately $0.8 million, or $.01 per share, related to legal and other costs associated with the previously disclosed investigations by the Securities and Exchange Commission and the Office of the United States Attorney for the Southern District of New York, which are ongoing, and |
| • | | expenses of approximately $3.6 million, or $.03 per share, related to retention and severance as the Company downsizes its organizational structure. |
The Company recorded net income of $8.2 million, or $.06 per share, for the prior year second quarter ended July 30, 2005. This net income included an after-tax gain on discontinued operations of $77.8 million, or $.54 per share, related to the Proffitt’s/McRae’s business, partially offset by an after-tax loss of $18.8 million, or $.13 per share, primarily related to a loss on debt extinguishment. The prior year second quarter also included legal and other expenses related to the investigations totaling approximately $3.3 million (net of taxes), or $.02 per share, and
Page 2
approximately $3.5 million (net of taxes), or $.02 per share, of severance and retention expenses. Since the transition service agreements related to Proffitt’s/McRae’s with Belk, Inc. have ended, the Proffitt’s/McRae’s business has now been classified as “discontinued operations” in the prior year financial statements.
For the six months ended July 29, 2006, the Company recorded net income of $26.0 million, or $.19 per share. The period included a net after-tax gain of $52.8 million, or $.39 per share, primarily related to the gain on the sale of NDSG of $69.0 million, or $.51 per share, partially offset by the FAS 123(r) charge noted above and asset impairments and dispositions of $3.4 million, or $.03 per share.
The six months also included (amounts are net of taxes):
| • | | expenses of approximately $1.8 million, or $.01 per share, related to legal and other costs associated with the previously disclosed investigations; |
| • | | expenses of approximately $7.6 million, or $.06 per share, related to retention and severance; and |
| • | | income of approximately $2.5 million, or $.02 per share, due to the favorable conclusion of certain tax examinations. |
The Company recorded net income of $24.4 million, or $.17 per share, for the prior year six months ended July 30, 2005. This net income included an after-tax gain on discontinued operations of $80.2 million, or $.56 per share, related to the Proffitt’s/McRae’s business, partially offset by an after-tax loss of $17.3 million, or $.12 per share, primarily related to the aforementioned loss on debt extinguishment. The prior year six months also included legal and other expenses related to the investigations totaling approximately $5.6 million (net of taxes), or $.04 per share, and approximately $3.5 million (net of taxes), or $.02 per share, of retention expenses.
For the current year second quarter, consolidated comparable store sales increased 2.9%. Total revenues declined 37.4% for the quarter, primarily reflecting the sale of the NDSG business. The consolidated gross margin rate declined by 160 basis points from last year, principally due to the sale of NDSG. The gross margin rate at both Parisian and SFAE was essentially flat on a year-over-year basis for the quarter. As a percent of sales, SG&A expenses increased by approximately 160 basis points over the prior year; however, excluding the charge associated with the FAS 123(r) ($19.6 million on a pre-tax basis), SG&A expenses would have declined approximately 100 basis points year-over-year. Other operating expenses (depreciation, rent, and taxes other than income taxes) increased 100 basis points as a percent of sales since these expenses typically are higher as a percent of sales for SFAE and Parisian than at the SDSG businesses that were sold.
For the current year six months, consolidated comparable store sales were flat with last year, and total sales declined 30.8% principally due to the sale of NDSG. The gross margin rate was 80 basis points below last year primarily due to the sale of NDSG. As a percent of sales, SG&A expenses increased approximately 80 basis points over the prior year; however, excluding the FAS 123(r) charge, SG&A expenses would have declined approximately 30 basis points year-over-year. As a percent of sales, other operating expenses increased 50 basis points over last year principally due to the sale NDSG.

Total | | $ | (74.9 | ) | | $ | (67.1 | ) | | $ | 146.3 | | | $ | (19.3 | ) |
Items not allocated to the business segments are comprised of the gain on the sale of the NDSG business (approximately $205.1 million for the six months ended July 29, 2006); the cost of certain services performed on behalf of the entire company; and those items not considered by corporate management in assessing segment operating performance, such as impairments, gains or losses on long-lived assets, certain store closing charges, debt restructuring charges, FAS 123(r) expenses associated with anti-dilution adjustments, and certain retention and severance costs. Expenses associated with the investigations have been allocated to SFAE.
Comments on the Quarter and Six Months
SDSG
In the current year second quarter, SDSG consists of the operations of Parisian and Club Libby Lu. For the prior year second quarter, SDSG also included the operations of NDSG for the entire quarter. The Proffitt’s/McRae’s business through July 2, 2005 is reflected as discontinued operations for both the three and six month periods.
For the second quarter, SDSG generated an operating loss of $1.0 million compared to an operating loss of $0.9 million last year. SDSG’s second quarter consolidated performance reflected a comparable store sales increase of 1.0% and a total sales decline of 72.9% (related to the sale of NDSG). SDSG’s year-over-year gross margin rate was essentially flat for the quarter. Through careful expense management, as a percent of sales, SG&A expenses declined modestly over the prior year. As a percent of sales, other operating expenses (primarily rents and depreciation) were higher for the Parisian business than at the NDSG business that was sold. Consequently, as a percent of sales, these expenses rose over last year.
Steve Sadove, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, noted, “I am satisfied with SDSG’s operating performance, particularly in light of the distraction of the ongoing strategic alternatives process at Parisian.
“We are pleased that the strategic alternatives process successfully concluded with our agreement to sell the Parisian business to Belk for $285 million. This transaction is the next appropriate step in our department store divestiture process and one that will allow us to focus our future time and resources on improving the operations of our core Saks Fifth Avenue business. I believe this transaction is in the long-term best interests of our Company and our shareholders.”
SFAE
SFAE’s second quarter operating loss totaled $33.3 million, a 22% improvement from the $42.8 million loss posted in the prior year.
Page 4
For the quarter, SFAE’s comparable store sales rose 3.4%. SFAE’s gross margin rate was essentially flat with last year. Year-over-year SG&A expenses declined approximately 9%, driving a substantial improvement in the expense rate as a percent of sales. As a percent of sales, other operating expenses (primarily depreciation) rose over the prior year.
Sadove commented, “We are making definite progress at SFAE. I am pleased with the sales performance and expense control demonstrated during the quarter.
“We expect to see improved operating results at SFAE in fall 2006 and even more improvement in 2007. We are working to ensure that our merchandise assortments are appropriate by market, and sales of early fall merchandise receipts are encouraging. We are also focused on improving our gross margin rate performance through improved inventory management, further reducing our operating expenses, and spending capital in a disciplined manner with a focus on return on investment.”
Balance Sheet Highlights
Consolidated inventories at July 29, 2006 totaled $804.4 million, a 37% decrease from the prior year, which primarily related to the sale of Proffitt’s/McRae’s and NDSG. Consolidated comparable store inventories increased approximately 4% over last year, primarily attributable to a planned increase at SFAE.
The Company ended the quarter with approximately $502 million of cash on hand. During the quarter, the company paid a $4 per share special cash dividend to shareholders, which totaled $547 million.
At quarter end, the Company had no outstanding borrowings on its $500 million revolving credit facility. Funded debt (including capitalized leases) at July 29, 2006 totaled approximately $692.3 million, and debt-to-capitalization was 30.8%.
Sadove noted, “Upon completion of the Parisian transaction, the Company will have generated approximately $2.1 billion in total consideration, which includes nearly $2.0 billion in cash, from the sales of Proffitt’s/McRae’s, NDSG, and Parisian. Thus far, we have used a portion of the proceeds to pay a $4 per share special dividend totaling $547 million, to purchase nearly $225 million in common stock, and to reduce indebtedness by over $600 million. The Company currently has invested cash of approximately $500 million and no principal borrowings under its revolving credit facility. We believe we have a strong balance sheet, and we are optimistic about the future performance of the SFAE business. As a result, we currently believe that it will be appropriate to distribute a substantial portion of existing cash plus the net proceeds from the Parisian sale to our shareholders. We are reviewing strategies to do so, including share repurchases, a special cash dividend, or a combination of the two.”
The Company has remaining availability of approximately 37.8 million shares under its 70 million share repurchase authorization. The Company did not repurchase any shares during the second quarter.
Outlook for the Balance of 2006 and Beyond
Sadove noted, “Our main focus areas for the remainder of 2006 continue to be:
| • | | improve the operating performance of SFAE, targeting mid-single digit comps and substantial year-over-year improvement in the SFAE gross margin rate; |
Page 5
| • | | consummate the Parisian transaction with Belk; |
| • | | complete our transition service agreement (“TSA”) for NDSG with Bon-Ton and begin our TSA for Parisian with Belk; |
| • | | continue implementing our plans for a cost-effective support infrastructure, which process will accelerate once the TSA periods end; and |
| • | | effectively and efficiency deploy our excess cash for the benefit of our shareholders.” |
Management believes that the following assumptions are reasonable for the second half of 2006 (assuming that the Parisian transaction is consummated by the end of the third fiscal quarter):
| • | | Interest expense approximating $25 million. |
| • | | Depreciation and amortization ranging from $60 million to $70 million. |
| • | | An effective tax rate of approximately 40.0%. |
For the full year (assuming the Parisian transaction is consummated by the end of the third fiscal quarter), management expects net capital spending will total approximately $150 million to $175 million. The major components of this spending include approximately: (i) $60 million for SFAE expansions and remodels, (ii) $35 million for new and remodeled Parisian stores, and (iii) the balance primarily for merchandising, maintenance capital, and information technology.
The Company’s three-to-four year operating margin goal for SFAE remains at 8%. This operating margin goal includes the absorption of approximately $20 million of the previously “unallocated” corporate expenses.
