NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS 1. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the six month period ended July 29, 1995 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ended February 3, 1996 due to the seasonal nature of the business. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 1995. 2. The retail last-in, first-out (LIFO) inventory method is used to value merchandise inventories. Under this method, at July 29, 1995, and July 30, 1994, the LIFO cost of merchandise inventories was approximately $1,000,000 and $15,500,000, respectively, less than the first-in, first-out (FIFO) cost. At January 28, 1995, the LIFO cost of merchandise inventories was approximately equal to FIFO cost. At January 29, 1994 the LIFO cost of merchandise inventories was approximately $13,200,000 less than FIFO cost. 3. Net sales include leased department sales of $8,620,000 and $10,035,000 for the quarters ending July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994, respectively. Leased department sales for the six months ending July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 were $15,892,000 and $18,893,000, respectively. Leased department sales for the twelve months ending July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 were $43,235,000 and $55,650,000, respectively. 4. On June 1, 1995, the Company issued $100,000,000 aggregate principal amount of its 6.875% coupon, (6.99% yield to maturity) notes due June 1, 2005. The notes were sold in an underwritten public offering. 5. On July 13, 1995, the Company announced that it had entered into an agreement for the acquisition of Gonzalez Padin Co., Inc., a San Juan, Puerto Rico based retailer. Gonzalez Padin operates seven department stores in Puerto Rico with total 1994 sales volume of $65 million in 382,000 square feet. ITEM 2 Management's Discussion And Analysis Of Financial Condition And Results Of Operations Results of Operations The following table sets forth operating results expressed as a percentage of net sales for the periods indicated: Three Months Ended Six Months Ended Twelve Months Ended July 29 July 30 July 29 July 30 July 29 July 30 1995 1994 1995 1994 1995 1994 Net sales 100.00% 100.00% 100.00% 100.00% 100.00% 100.00% Cost of sales 65.21% 65.42% 65.86% 65.95% 65.15% 65.10% Gross profit 34.79% 34.58% 34.14% 34.05% 34.85% 34.90% Advertising, selling, administrative and general expenses 26.16% 26.16% 25.40% 25.16% 24.09% 23.91% Depreciation and amortization 3.98% 3.89% 3.79% 3.72% 3.47% 3.41% Rentals 0.89% 1.06% 0.88% 1.05% 1.08% 1.23% Interest and debt expense 2.38% 2.72% 2.22% 2.55% 2.10% 2.39% Total operating expenses 33.41% 33.83% 32.29% 32.48% 30.74% 30.94% Other income 3.54% 3.85% 3.56% 3.79% 3.20% 3.42% Income before income taxes 4.92% 4.60% 5.41% 5.36% 7.31% 7.38% Federal and state income taxes 1.87% 1.75% 2.05% 2.04% 2.78% 2.96% Net income 3.05% 2.85% 3.36% 3.32% 4.53% 4.42% Sales for the second quarter of 1995 were $1,265,066,000 as compared to $1,184,316,000 for the second quarter of 1994. This is an increase of 7%. The sales increase for comparable stores was 4%. The six month sales increase for 1995 over 1994 was 5%. For comparable stores the increase was 2%. The twelve month sales increase for 1995 over 1994 was 6%, for comparable stores the increase was 4%. Cost of sales decreased from 65.42% of net sales for the second quarter of 1994 to 65.21% for the second quarter of 1995. For the six months ended July 29, 1995 the decrease was from 65.95% to 65.86%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994, there was a slight increase from 65.10% to 65.15%. Advertising, selling, administrative and general expenses remained constant at 26.16% of net sales for the second quarter of 1995 compared to the second quarter of 1994. For the six months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 these expenses increased as a percentage of net sales from 25.16% to 25.40%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 they increased from 23.91% to 24.09%. These increases were primarily due to an increase in payroll expense in the selling area. Depreciation and amortization expense as a percentage of net sales increased from 3.89% in the second quarter of 1994 to 3.98% in the second quarter of 1995. For the six months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 these expenses increased as a percentage or net sales from 3.72% to 3.79%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 the increase was from 3.41% to 3.47%. These increases were primarily due to a higher proportion of the Company's properties being owned rather than leased. Rental expense decreased from 1.06% of net sales for the second quarter of 1994 to .89% of net sales for the second quarter of 1995. For the six months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 these expenses decreased as a percentage of sales from 1.05% to .88%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1995 the decrease was from 1.23% to 1.08%. These decreases were primarily due to a higher proportion of the Company's properties being owned rather than leased. Interest and debt expense decreased from 2.72% of net sales for the second quarter of 1994 to 2.38% for the second quarter of 1995 . For the six months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 these expenses decreased as a percentage of net sales from 2.55% to 2.22%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 the decrease was from 2.39% to 2.10%. Interest and debt expense declined as a percentage of net sales due to an overall lower level of debt partially offset by higher interest rates on short-term debt. Service charges, interest and other income decreased from 3.85% of net sales in the second quarter of 1994 to 3.54% of net sales in 1995. For the six months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 the decrease was from 3.79% to 3.56%. For the twelve months ended July 29, 1995 and July 30, 1994 the decrease was from 3.42% to 3.20%. The primary cause for this decrease was a decline in proprietary credit card sales as a percentage of total sales. The effective federal and state income tax rate was 38% for the second quarter of 1995 and 1994. Financial Condition The Company's working capital was $1,749,223,000 at July 29, 1995, $1,765,844,000 at January 28, 1995, and $1,633,472,000 at July 30, 1994. The current ratio for these periods was 3.3, 3.3 and 3.1, respectively. The long-term debt to capitalization ratio was 32.8%, 34.1% and 35.9% at July 29, 1995, January 28, 1995, and July 30, 1994, respectively. On June 1, 1995, the Company issued $100,000,000 6.875% notes due June 1, 2005. The proceeds were used to reduce short-term borrowings. At July 29, 1995, the Company had available for issuance $100 million aggregate principal amount of unsecured debt covered by an effective registration statement. The Company invested $164,220,000 in capital expenditures for the six months ended July 29, 1995 as compared to $117,460,000 for the six months ended July 30, 1994. In 1995, the Company plans to build eleven stores, two of which will be replacement stores and to remodel and expand eight additional stores. In 1994, the Company opened nine stores, two of which were replacement stores, and significantly remodeled and expanded two additional stores. Merchandise inventories increased by 7% from $1,361,721,000 at July 30, 1994 to $1,458,574,000 at July 29, 1995. This increase was due to the opening of seven new stores in 1994 and four stores in the first six months of 1995. On a comparable store basis, the rate of increase in merchandise inventories was 2.5%. Fluctuations in certain other balance sheet accounts between January 28, 1995 and July 29, 1995 reflect normal seasonal variations within the retail industry.
