Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. Announces Second Quarter and First Half 2020 Financial Results

September 2, 2020 at 4:05 PM EDT

WEST JORDAN, Utah, Sept. 02, 2020 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. ("Sportsman's Warehouse" or the “Company”) (Nasdaq: SPWH) today announced financial results for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020.

“The second quarter was record-breaking for Sportsman’s Warehouse. I am very proud of the Sportsman’s Warehouse team as they worked to keep our associates and customers safe during this sustained surge in our business,” said Jon Barker, Sportsman’s Warehouse CEO. “Same store sales were up 61% in the second quarter of 2020 as compared to the same period last year, primarily due to market share gains, a significant increase in participants in outdoor activities, and social unrest.”

Mr. Barker continued, “We are very pleased with the growth of our ecommerce-driven business, which increased over 300% for the quarter versus prior year. We are also highly encouraged by the strong start of our new small-format store in Laramie, Wyoming that opened at the beginning of August. We believe this concept will facilitate our ability to profitably penetrate many small and mid-sized markets across the country.”

“Thanks to the strong financial performance of our business so far this year, we paid down a significant portion of our debt and ended the second quarter nearly debt-free. We see our financial flexibility as a competitive advantage enabling us to invest for long-term growth and profitability.”

For the thirteen weeks ended August 1, 2020:

Net sales were $381.0 million, an increase of $169.2 million, or 79.9%, as compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2019. The net sales increase was primarily due to a surge in demand across all major categories, led by our hunting and shooting category, as well as strong growth in our eCommerce platform compared to the prior year period.
Same store sales increased 61.0% during the second quarter of 2020 compared to the second quarter of 2019.
Gross profit was $129.1 million or 33.9% of net sales, as compared to $73.2 million or 34.6% of net sales in the comparable prior year period, a year-over-year increase of $55.9 million in gross profit and a 70-basis point decrease in gross profit margin.
Net income was $32.5 million compared to net income of $5.5 million in the second quarter of 2019. Adjusted net income was $33.6 million compared to adjusted net income of $5.7 million in the second quarter of 2019 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).

For the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020:

Net sales were $627.8 million, an increase of $242.0 million, or 62.7%, as compared to the first half of fiscal year 2019. The net sales increase was primarily due to a surge in demand across all major categories, led by our hunting and shooting category, as well as strong growth in our eCommerce platform compared to the prior year period.
Same store sales increased 46.5% during the first half of 2020 compared to the first half of 2019.
Gross profit was $203.9 million or 32.5% of net sales, as compared to $127.4 million or 33.0% of net sales for the comparable prior year period, a year-over-year increase of $76.5 million in gross profit and a 60-basis point decrease in gross profit margin.
Net income was $31.3 million compared to net income of $0.0 million in the first half of 2019. Adjusted net income was $34.0 million compared to adjusted net income of $0.5 million in the first half of 2019 (see “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures”).
Adjusted EBITDA was $61.8 million compared to $16.2 million in the first half of 2019 (see "GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures").
Diluted earnings per share were $0.71 for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020 compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.00 for the same period last year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.77 for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020 compared to adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.01 for the same period last year (see "GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures").

Non-GAAP Information

This press release includes the following financial measures defined as non-GAAP financial measures by the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”): adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted net income (loss), adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share and Adjusted EBITDA. We define adjusted income (loss) from operations and adjusted net income (loss) as income (loss) from operations and net income (loss), respectively, in each case, plus expenses incurred relating to bonuses and increased wages paid to front-line and non-executive back office associates due to COVID-19, costs incurred for the recruitment and hiring of key members of management, certain expenses incurred relating to the acquisition of Field and Stream stores, tax benefits recognized, and the costs and impairments recorded relating to the closure of one store during the first quarter of 2020, as applicable. We define adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share as diluted earnings (loss) per share excluding the impact of expenses incurred related to the bonuses and increased wages paid to front-line and non-executive back office associates due to COVID-19, expenses incurred relating to the recruitment and hiring of key members of management, certain expenses incurred relating to the acquisition of Field and Stream stores, and the costs and impairments recorded relating to the closure of one store during the first quarter of 2020, as applicable. We define Adjusted EBITDA as net income (loss) plus interest expense, income tax (benefit) expense, depreciation and amortization, stock-based compensation expense, bonuses and increased wages paid to front-line and non-executive back office associates due to COVID-19, pre-opening expenses, and other gains, losses and expenses that we do not believe are indicative of our ongoing expenses. The Company has reconciled these non-GAAP financial measures with the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures under “GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures” in this release. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures not only provide its management with comparable financial data for internal financial analysis but also provide meaningful supplemental information to investors. Specifically, these non-GAAP financial measures allow investors to better understand the performance of the Company’s business and facilitate a more meaningful comparison of its diluted earnings per share and actual results on a period-over-period basis. The Company has provided this information as a means to evaluate the results of its ongoing operations. Other companies in the Company’s industry may calculate these items differently than the Company does. Each of these measures is not a measure of performance under GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for the most directly comparable financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company’s results as reported under GAAP.

Forward-Looking Statements

This press release includes forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933 and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934. Forward-looking statements in this release include, but are not limited to, statements regarding the expected our ability to profitably penetrate small and mid-sized markets and our ability to invest in long-term growth and profitability. Investors can identify these statements by the fact that they use words such as "continue", "expect", "may", “opportunity”, "plan", "future", “ahead” and similar terms and phrases. The Company cannot assure investors that future developments affecting the Company will be those that it has anticipated. Actual results may differ materially from these expectations due to many factors including, but not limited to: the potential effects of COVID-19 and measures intended to reduce its spread on our operations; the Company’s retail-based business model; general economic, market and other conditions and changes in consumer spending; the Company’s concentration of stores in the Western United States; competition in the outdoor activities and specialty retail market; changes in consumer demands; the Company’s expansion into new markets and planned growth; current and future government regulations; risks related to the Company’s continued retention of its key management; the Company’s distribution center; quality or safety concerns about the Company’s merchandise; events that may affect the Company’s vendors; trade restrictions; public health crises and social unrest; and other factors that are set forth in the Company's filings with the SEC, including under the caption “Risk Factors” in the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2020 which was filed with the SEC on April 9, 2020, and the Company’s other public filings made with the SEC and available at www.sec.gov. If one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or if any of the Company’s assumptions prove incorrect, the Company’s actual results may vary in material respects from those projected in these forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement made by the Company in this release speaks only as of the date on which the Company makes it. Factors or events that could cause the Company’s actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for the Company to predict all of them.
