ATZ Aritzia Inc

VANCOUVER, BC, Jan. 10, 2024 /CNW/ - Aritzia Inc. (TSX: ATZ) ("Aritzia", the "Company", "we" or "our"), a design house with an innovative global platform offering Everyday Luxury online and in its boutiques, today announced its financial results for the third quarter ended November 26, 2023 ("Q3 2024").

"Aritzia delivered third quarter net revenue of $654 million, an increase of 5% on top of outstanding growth of 38% in the third quarter of Fiscal 2023 and 63% in the third quarter of Fiscal 2022. Although the consumer environment remains mixed, we generated sales growth across all of our geographies and channels, as clients responded well to our new styles and outerwear offering," said Jennifer Wong, Chief Executive Officer. "As expected, we saw sequential margin improvement in the third quarter, and we made ongoing progress in executing against our Fiscal 2024 priorities. Our new Toronto area distribution centre successfully ramped to accommodate record volume and we further improved our inventory position."

"As we continue to anniversary two years of unprecedented growth, resulting in a 33% three-year net revenue CAGR in Q3 of Fiscal 2024, we remain focused on investing in the scalability of our business and setting the stage for our next level of anticipated growth. Looking ahead, we expect to launch Spring 2024 with an improved product assortment and inventory position. We are also accelerating our real estate expansion strategy into Fiscal 2025 and diligently working to increase our eCommerce momentum through strategic investments in leadership, digital marketing and technology," added Ms. Wong.

Third Quarter Results Compared to Q3 2023

Net revenue increased by 4.6% to $653.5 million, compared to $624.6 million in Q3 2023. This is on top of strong net revenue growth over the last two years of 37.8% in Q3 2023 and 62.9% in Q3 2022, resulting in a three year compound annual growth rate ("CAGR") of 32.9%. Comparable sales growth² was 0.5%, compared to 22.8% in Q3 2023. In the United States, net revenue increased by 4.2% to $326.6 million, compared to $313.5 million in Q3 2023. Net revenue in Canada increased by 5.1% to $326.9 million, compared to $311.1 million in Q3 2023.

• Retail net revenue increased by 4.2% to $441.1 million, compared to $423.2 million in Q3 2023. The increase was driven by strong performance of the Company's new and repositioned boutiques, which continue to generate better-than-expected results. Boutique count³ at the end of Q3 2024 totaled 117 compared to 113 boutiques at the end of Q3 2023.
• eCommerce net revenue increased by 5.5% to $212.5 million, compared to $201.4 million in Q3 2023, driven by growth in Canada as well as the Company's digital warehouse sale in Q3 2024.

Gross profit increased by 0.1% to $270.9 million, compared to $270.7 million in Q3 2023. Gross profit margin² was 41.5%, compared to 43.3% in Q3 2023. The decrease in gross profit margin of approximately 180 bps was primarily driven by higher markdowns to help optimize the Company's inventory levels and pre-opening lease amortization costs for flagship boutiques. These impacts were partially offset by lower warehousing and freight costs.

SG&A expenses increased by 14.4% to $187.4 million, compared to $163.7 million in Q3 2023. SG&A expenses were 28.7% of net revenue, compared to 26.2% in Q3 2023. The increase in SG&A expenses was driven by investments in talent made through the end of Fiscal 2023, marketing initiatives and support office expansion to help support the Company's growth.

Net income was $43.1 million, a decrease of 39.1% compared to $70.7 million in Q3 2023, primarily attributable to the factors described above.

Net income per diluted share was $0.38 per share, a decrease of 37.7% compared to $0.61 per share in Q3 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA² was $91.8 million or 14.0% of net revenue², a decrease of 23.3% compared to $119.6 million or 19.2% of net revenue¹ in Q3 2023.

Adjusted Net Income² was $52.7 million, a decrease of 31.2% compared to $76.6 million in Q3 2023.

Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share² was $0.47 per share, a decrease of 29.9% compared to $0.67 per share in Q3 2023.

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of Q3 2024 totaled $140.8 million compared to $131.9 million at the end of Q3 2023, with strong operating cash flows funding the repayment of the $100 million drawn on the Company's revolving credit facility from the end of Q2 2024 and the Company's capital investments.

On October 27, 2023, the Company refinanced its revolving credit facility, increasing the limit from $175.0 million to $300.0 million and extending the term to October 27, 2026.

Inventory at the end of Q3 2024 was $397.0 million, a decrease of 21.9% compared to $508.4 million at the end of Q3 2023.  The Company is pleased that the inventory balance continues to normalize and expects inventory levels to be optimized by the end of Fiscal 2024. 

Capital cash expenditures (net of proceeds from lease incentives)² were $41.4 million in Q3 2024, compared to $26.4 million in Q3 2023. The increase is primarily due to capital investments in new boutiques, expanded or repositioned boutiques, distribution centers and support office expansion.

YTD 2024 Compared to YTD 2023

Net revenue increased by 5.9% to $1.7 billion, compared to $1.6 billion in YTD 2023 with comparable sales growth (decline)² of (0.2)%. Results continued to be driven by performance in the United States, where net revenue increased by 9.4% to $857.4 million, compared to $783.5 million in YTD 2023. In Canada, net revenue increased by 2.4% to $793.0 million, compared to $774.5 million in YTD 2023.

• Retail net revenue increased by 6.4% to $1.13 billion, compared to $1.06 billion in YTD 2023. The increase in revenue was led by strong performance of our new boutiques in the United States, partially offset by softer comparable sales.
• eCommerce net revenue increased by 4.9% to $519.7 million, compared to $495.4 million in YTD 2023.

Gross profit decreased by 5.1% to $637.7 million, compared to $671.8 million in YTD 2023. Gross profit margin was 38.6% compared to 43.1% in YTD 2023. The 450 bps decrease in gross profit margin was primarily due to normalized markdowns, inflation in product costs, temporary warehousing costs related to inventory management, pre-opening lease amortization costs for boutiques and our new distribution centre, and foreign currency headwinds. These impacts were partially offset by lower expedited freight costs. 

SG&A expenses increased by 18.7% to $511.9 million, compared to $431.2 million in YTD 2023. SG&A expenses were 31.0% of net revenue compared to 27.7% in YTD 2023. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to investments in retail wages and support office labour made through the end of Fiscal 2023, as well as support office expansion, distribution centre project costs and other initiatives to help support the Company's growth.

Net income was $54.6 million, a decrease of 63.7% compared to $150.3 million in YTD 2023, primarily attributable to the factors described above.

Net income per diluted share was $0.48, a decrease of 63.1%, compared to $1.30 in YTD 2023.

Adjusted EBITDA² was $144.5 million, or 8.8% of net revenue, a decrease of 46.8%, compared to $271.8 million, or 17.4% of net revenue in YTD 2023.

Adjusted Net Income² was $67.3 million, a decrease of 59.9%, compared to $168.1 million in YTD 2023.

Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share² was $0.59, a decrease of 59.6%, compared to $1.46 in YTD 2023.

Capital cash expenditures (net of proceeds from lease incentives)² were $113.6 million, compared to $73.5 million in YTD 2023. The increase is primarily due to capital investments in new boutiques, expanded or repositioned boutiques, distribution centers and support office expansion.

Outlook

Based on quarter-to-date trends, Aritzia expects net revenue in the range of $670 million to $690 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024, including the addition of approximately $30 million from the 53rd week. This represents growth of approximately 5% to 8% on top of strong growth of 44% in the fourth quarter last year and 66% in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2022. The Company expects gross profit margin to be flat to slightly up and SG&A as a percent of net revenue to increase approximately 250 bps for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2023.

Aritzia expects the following for Fiscal 2024:

• Net revenue in the range of $2.32 billion to $2.34 billion, representing growth of approximately 6% to 7% from Fiscal 2023 including the 53^rd week, compared to the Company's previous outlook of $2.25 billion to $2.35 billion. This includes the contribution from retail expansion in the United States with six new boutiques and three boutique expansions. Five new boutiques as well as the three boutique expansions have already opened. Compared to the Company's prior outlook of eight new boutiques and four boutique expansions, two new boutiques are now expected to open in Fiscal 2025.
• Gross profit margin to decrease by approximately 300 bps compared to Fiscal 2023, reflecting inflationary pressures, normalized markdowns, temporary warehousing costs, and pre-opening lease amortization, partially offset by lower expedited freight costs.
• SG&A as a percent of net revenue to increase by approximately 300 bps compared to Fiscal 2023, driven by the annualization of investments in support office labour and retail wage inflation, as well as distribution centre project costs.
• Capital cash expenditures (net of proceeds from lease incentives)² of approximately $180 million. This includes approximately $100 million related to investments in new, repositioned and expanded boutiques expected to open in Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2025, as well as $80 million primarily related to our distribution centres and support office expansion. The reduction compared to the prior outlook of approximately $220 million primarily reflects the timing shift of improvements to the Company's distribution centre in Columbus, Ohio and certain store openings into Fiscal 2025 from Fiscal 2024.

The foregoing outlook is based on management's current strategies and may be considered forward-looking information under applicable securities laws. Such outlook is based on estimates and assumptions made by management regarding, among other things, general economic and geopolitical conditions and the competitive environment. This outlook is intended to provide readers management's projections for the Company as of the date of this press release. Readers are cautioned that actual results may vary materially from this outlook and that the information in the outlook may not be appropriate for other purposes. See also the "Forward-Looking Information" section of this press release and the "Forward-Looking Information" and "Risk Factors" sections of our Management's Discussion & Analysis for the third quarter of Fiscal 2024 dated January 10, 2024 (the "Q3 2024 MD&A"), for Fiscal 2023 dated May 2, 2023 (the "Fiscal 2023 MD&A") and the Company's annual information form for Fiscal 2023 dated May 2, 2023 (the "Fiscal 2023 AIF").

In addition, a discussion of the Company's long-term financial plan is contained in the Company's press release dated October 27, 2022, "Aritzia Presents its Fiscal 2027 Strategic and Financial Plan, Powering Stronger". This press release is available on the System for Electronic Document Analysis and Retrieval + ("SEDAR+") at www.sedarplus.ca and on our website at investors.aritzia.com.

The Company intends to file with the Toronto Stock Exchange ("TSX") a notice of intention to commence a normal course issuer bid ("NCIB") for its subordinate voting shares ("Shares") for a one-year period (the "2024 NCIB"). If accepted by the TSX, the Company would be permitted under the 2024 NCIB to purchase for cancellation, through the facilities of the TSX and/or alternative Canadian trading systems, up to 5% of the public float (calculated in accordance with TSX rules) of the Company's issued and outstanding Shares during the 12 months following such TSX acceptance. Subject to TSX acceptance, Aritzia currently anticipates the 2024 NCIB commencing on or about January 22, 2024, and in any event, at least two trading days after TSX acceptance of the 2024 NCIB. The exact amount of Shares subject to the 2024 NCIB will be determined on the date of acceptance of the notice of intention by the TSX.

All Shares purchased by the Company under the 2024 NCIB will be purchased at prevailing market prices in accordance with the rules and policies of the TSX and applicable securities laws. The actual number of Shares that may be purchased, and the timing of any such purchases, will be determined by the Company, subject to the applicable terms and limitations of the 2024 NCIB (including any automatic purchase plan adopted in connection therewith). All Shares acquired by the Company under the 2024 NCIB will be cancelled.

The 2024 NCIB will terminate one year after its commencement, or earlier if the maximum number of Shares under the 2024 NCIB have been purchased. Although the Company presently intends to purchase Shares under its 2024 NCIB, there can be no assurances that any such purchases will be completed. The Company may also enter into an automatic purchase plan with a designated broker during the NCIB. The automatic purchase plan would allow for purchases by the Company of Shares during certain predetermined blackout periods, subject to certain parameters and approval of the TSX.

Aritzia's Board of Directors believes that an NCIB represents an appropriate and desirable use of its available cash, after prioritizing investments in boutiques and strategic infrastructure, to increase shareholder value and is in the best interest of Aritzia, including its shareholders. As at November 26, 2023, the Company had approximately $140.8 million of cash and cash equivalents.

The Company's prior NCIB commenced on January 20, 2023 and expires on January 19, 2024 (the "2023 NCIB"). Between January 20, 2023 and January 9, 2024, the Company repurchased a total of 1,089,641 Shares for cancellation at an average price of $27.52 per Share for total cash consideration of $30.0 million under the 2023 NCIB.

Founded in 1984 in Vancouver, Canada, we pride ourselves on creating immersive, highly personalized shopping experiences at aritzia.com and in our 115+ boutiques throughout North America — for everyone, everywhere.

Aritzia means style, not trend, and quality over everything. We treat each in-house label as its own atelier, united by premium fabrics, meticulous construction and an of-the-moment point of view. We handpick fabrics from the world's best mills for their feel, function and ability to last. We obsess over proportion, fit and that just-right silhouette. From hand-painted prints to the art of pocket placement, our innovative design studio considers and reconsiders each detail to create essentials you'll reach for again, and again, and again.

Comparable sales and comparable sales growth (decline) are retail industry metrics used to explain our total combined revenue growth (decline) in eCommerce and established boutiques.

This press release makes reference to certain non-IFRS measures and certain retail industry metrics. These measures are not recognized measures under IFRS, do not have a standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS, and are therefore unlikely to be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Rather, these measures are provided as additional information to complement those IFRS measures by providing further understanding of our results of operations from management's perspective. Accordingly, these measures should not be considered in isolation nor as a substitute for analysis of our financial information reported under IFRS. We use non-IFRS financial measures including "EBITDA", "Adjusted EBITDA", and "Adjusted Net Income"; non-IFRS ratios including "Adjusted Net Income per Diluted Share", "Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue", and "Adjusted Net Income as a percentage of net revenue"; and capital management measures including "capital cash expenditures (net of proceeds from lease incentives)" and "free cash flow."  This press release also makes reference to "gross profit margin" as well as "comparable sales" and "comparable sales growth (decline)", which are commonly used operating metrics in the retail industry but may be calculated differently by other retailers. Gross profit margin, comparable sales and comparable sales growth (decline) are considered supplementary financial measures under applicable securities laws. These non-IFRS measures and retail industry metrics are used to provide investors with supplemental measures of our operating performance and thus highlight trends in our core business that may not otherwise be apparent when relying solely on IFRS measures. We believe that securities analysts, investors and other interested parties frequently use non-IFRS measures and retail industry metrics in the evaluation of issuers. Our management also uses non-IFRS measures and retail industry metrics in order to facilitate operating performance comparisons from period to period, to prepare annual operating budgets and forecasts and to determine components of management compensation. Certain information about non-IFRS financial measures, non-IFRS ratios, capital management measures and supplementary financial measures is found in the Q3 2024 MD&A and is incorporated by reference. This information is found in the sections entitled "How We Assess the Performance of our Business", "Non-IFRS Measures and Retail Industry Metrics" and "Selected Financial Information" of the Q3 2024 MD&A which is available under the Company's profile on SEDAR+ at www.sedarplus.ca. Reconciliations for each non-IFRS financial measure can be found in this press release under the heading "Selected Financial Information".
