Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
|
| (a) |
Description of Business
|
Ollie’s Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. and subsidiaries (collectively referred to as the “Company” or “Ollie’s”) principally buys overproduced,
overstocked, and closeout merchandise from manufacturers, wholesalers and other retailers. In addition, the Company augments its name-brand closeout deals with directly sourced private label products featuring names exclusive to Ollie’s in order to
provide consistently value-priced goods in select key merchandise categories.
Since its first store opened in 1982, the Company has grown to 409 retail locations in 28 states as of July 31, 2021. Ollie’s Bargain Outlet retail locations are
located in Alabama, Arkansas, Connecticut, Delaware, Florida, Georgia, Indiana, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Maryland, Massachusetts, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, New Jersey, New York, North Carolina, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, Rhode Island,
South Carolina, Tennessee, Texas, Vermont, Virginia and West Virginia.
| (b) |
Fiscal Year
|
Ollie’s follows a 52/53-week fiscal year, which ends on the Saturday nearer to January 31 of the following calendar year. References to the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 refer to the thirteen weeks from May 2, 2021 to July 31, 2021 and from May 3, 2020 to August 1, 2020, respectively. References to
year-to-date periods ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 refer to the twenty-six weeks from January 31, 2021 to July 31, 2021 and from February 2, 2020 to August 1, 2020, respectively. References to “2020” refer to the fiscal year ended January
30, 2021 and references to “2021” refer to the fiscal year ending January 29, 2022. Both periods consist of 52 weeks.
| (c) |
Basis of Presentation
|
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been
prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. The
condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments which management believes are necessary to present fairly the Company’s results of operations, financial condition, and cash flows for all periods presented. The
condensed consolidated balance sheets as of July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020, and the condensed consolidated statements of income and stockholders’ equity for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 and the
condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 have been prepared by the Company and are unaudited. The Company’s business is seasonal in nature and results of operations for the
interim periods presented are not necessarily indicative of operating results for 2021 or any other period. All intercompany accounts, transactions, and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.
The Company’s balance sheet as of January 30, 2021, presented herein, has been derived from the audited balance sheet included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on
March 24, 2021 (“Annual Report”), but does not include all disclosures required by GAAP. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements for 2020 and footnotes thereto included in the Annual Report.
For purposes of the disclosure requirements for segments of a business enterprise, it has been determined that the Company is comprised of one operating segment.

| (d) |
Use of Estimates
|
The preparation of condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that
affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Actual results could differ from those estimates.
| (e) |
Fair Value Disclosures
|
Fair value is defined as the price which the Company would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability (an exit price) in an orderly
transaction between market participants on the measurement date. In determining fair value, GAAP establishes a three-level hierarchy used in measuring fair value, as follows:
| ● |
Level 1 inputs are quoted prices available for identical assets and liabilities in active markets.
|
| ● |
Level 2 inputs are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, including quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or other inputs
which are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.
|
| ● |
Level 3 inputs are less observable and reflect the Company’s assumptions.
|
The Company’s financial instruments consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and its credit facilities. The
carrying amount of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximates fair value because of their short maturities. The carrying amount of the Company’s credit facilities approximates its fair value because the interest
rates are adjusted regularly based on current market conditions.
| (f) |
Impact of the Novel Coronavirus (“COVID-19”)
|
The outbreak of the novel coronavirus COVID-19, which was declared a global pandemic by the World Health Organization on March 11, 2020, has led to
adverse impacts on the U.S. and global economies. The outbreak of COVID-19 and related measures to quell the outbreak have impacted the Company’s inventory supply chain, operations and customer demand. The Company’s stores and distribution centers
have continued to operate as an essential business during the COVID-19 pandemic and the Company is committed to maintaining a safe work and shopping environment. The Company is
experiencing labor pressures in its stores and distribution centers as well as supply chain disruptions due to the ongoing impacts of COVID-19 and related measures. The COVID-19 pandemic could further affect the Company’s operations and
the operations of its suppliers and vendors as a result of continuing or renewed restrictions and limitations on travel, limitations on store or facility operations up to and including closures, and other governmental, business or consumer actions.
The extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic will impact the Company’s operations, liquidity or financial results in subsequent periods is uncertain, but such impact could be material.

Net Sales

Ollie’s recognizes retail sales in its stores when merchandise is sold and the customer takes possession of merchandise. Also included in net sales is revenue allocated to certain redeemed discounts earned
via the Ollie’s Army loyalty program and gift card breakage. Net sales are presented net of returns and sales tax. The Company provides an allowance for estimated retail merchandise returns based on prior experience.
Revenue Recognition
Revenue is deferred for the Ollie’s Army loyalty program where members accumulate
points that can be redeemed for discounts on future purchases. The Company has determined it has an additional performance obligation to Ollie’s Army members at the time of the initial transaction. The Company allocates the transaction price to the
initial transaction and the discount awards based upon its relative standalone selling price, which considers historical redemption patterns for the award. Revenue is recognized as those discount awards are redeemed. Discount awards issued upon the
achievement of specified point levels are subject to expiration. Unless temporarily extended, the maximum redemption period is 45 days . At the end of each fiscal period, unredeemed discount awards and accumulated points to earn a future
discount award are reflected as a liability. Discount awards are combined in one homogeneous pool and are not separately identifiable. Therefore, the revenue recognized consists of discount awards redeemed that were included in the deferred revenue
balance at the beginning of the period as well as discount awards issued during the current period. The following table is a reconciliation of the liability related to this program (in thousands):

Gift card breakage for gift card liabilities not subject to escheatment is recognized as revenue in proportion to the redemption of gift cards. Gift
cards do not expire. The rate applied to redemptions is based upon a historical breakage rate. Gift cards are combined in one homogenous pool and are not separately identifiable. Therefore, the revenue recognized consists of gift cards that were
included in the liability at the beginning of the period as well as gift cards that were issued during the period. The following table is a reconciliation of the gift card liability (in thousands):

Earnings per Common Share
|
Basic earnings per common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per
common share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding after giving effect to the potential dilution, if applicable, from the assumed exercise of stock options into shares of common stock as if
those stock options were exercised and the assumed lapse of restrictions on restricted stock units.
The following table summarizes those effects for the diluted earnings per common share calculation (in thousands, except per share amounts):

Commitments and Contingencies
|
Commitments
The Company accounts for leases in accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”)
2016-02, Leases,
which was adopted as of February 3, 2019. Pursuant to the adoption of the new standard, the Company elected the practical expedients upon transition that did not require it to
reassess existing contracts to determine if they contain leases under the new definition of a lease, or to reassess historical lease classification or initial direct costs. The Company also adopted the practical expedient to not separate lease and
non-lease components for new leases after adoption of the new standard. In addition, the Company applied a policy election to exclude leases with an initial term of 12 months or less from balance sheet recognition. The Company did not adopt the
hindsight practical expedient and, therefore, will continue to utilize lease terms determined under previous lease guidance for leases existing at the date of adoption that are not subsequently modified.
Ollie’s generally leases its stores, offices and distribution facilities under
operating leases that expire at various dates through 2034. These leases generally provide for fixed annual rentals; however, several provide for minimum annual rentals plus
contingent rentals based on a percentage of annual sales. A majority of the Company’s leases also require a payment for all or a portion of common-area maintenance, insurance,
real estate taxes, water and sewer costs and repairs, on a fixed or variable payment basis, the cost of which, for leases existing as of the adoption of ASU 2016-02, is charged
to the related expense category rather than being accounted for as rent expense. For leases entered into after the adoption of ASU 2016-02, the Company accounts for lease
components together with non-lease components as a single component for all classes of underlying assets. Most of the leases contain options to renew for three to five successive five-year periods. The Company is generally not reasonably certain to exercise renewal options; therefore, the options are not considered in determining the lease term, and associated potential option payments are excluded from the lease
payments. Ollie’s lease agreements generally do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants.
Store and office lease costs are classified in selling, general and administrative expenses and distribution center lease costs are classified in cost
of sales on the condensed consolidated statements of income.

Debt Obligations and Financing Arrangements
|
Long-term debt consists of finance leases as of July 31, 2021, August 1, 2020 and January 30, 2021.
The Company’s credit facility (the “Credit Facility”) provides for a five-year $100.0 million revolving credit facility, which includes a $45.0 million sub-facility for letters of credit and a $25.0
million sub-facility for swingline loans (the “Revolving Credit Facility”). Loans under the Revolving Credit Facility mature on May 22, 2024 .
In addition, the Company may at any time add term loan facilities or additional revolving commitments up to $150.0 million pursuant to
terms and conditions set out in the Credit Facility.
The interest rates for the Credit Facility are calculated as follows: for Base Rate Loans, the higher of the Prime Rate, the Federal Funds Effective
Rate plus 0.50 % or the Eurodollar Rate plus 1.0 %,
plus the Applicable Margin, or, for Eurodollar Loans, the Eurodollar Rate plus the Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margin will vary from 0.00 %
to 0.50 % for a Base Rate Loan and 1.00 %
to 1.50 % for a Eurodollar Loan, based on availability under the Credit Facility. The Eurodollar Rate is subject to a 0 % floor.
Under the terms of the Revolving Credit Facility, as of July 31, 2021, the Company could borrow up to 90.0 % of the most recent appraised value (valued at cost, discounted for the current net orderly liquidation value) of its eligible inventory, as defined, up to $100.0 million.
As of July 31, 2021, the Company had no
outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, with $88.6 million of borrowing availability, outstanding letters of credit
commitments of $11.2 million and $0.2
million of rent reserves. The Revolving Credit Facility also contains a variable unused line fee ranging from 0.125 % to 0.250 % per annum.
The Credit Facility is collateralized by the Company’s assets and equity and contains a financial covenant, as well as certain business covenants,
including restrictions on dividend payments, which the Company must comply with during the term of the agreement. The financial covenant is a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio test of at least 1.0 to 1.0 applicable during a covenant period, based on reference to availability. The Company was in compliance with all terms of the Credit Facility during the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021.
The provisions of the Credit Facility restrict all of the net assets of the Company’s consolidated subsidiaries, which constitutes all of the net
assets on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet as of July 31, 2021, from being used to pay any dividends or make other restricted payments to the Company without prior written consent from the financial institutions that are a party to
the Credit Facility, subject to material exceptions including proforma compliance with the applicable conditions described in the Credit Facility.
| (7) |
Income Taxes
|
The provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective
tax rate and is adjusted as necessary for discrete events occurring in a particular period. The effective tax rates for the thirteen weeks and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 were 24.8 % and 23.4 %, respectively. The effective tax rates during
the thirteen and twenty-six weeks
ended August 1, 2020 were (8.0 )% and 1.7 %, respectively. The effective tax rates
during the thirteen and twenty-six
weeks ended July 31, 2021 were affected by excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation of $0.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively. The thirteen and
twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020 included a similar discrete tax benefit of $30.5 million and $31.7 million, respectively, primarily due to the exercise of stock options by the
estate of a former executive of the Company.
| (8) |
Equity Incentive Plans
|
During 2012, Ollie’s established an equity incentive plan (the “2012 Plan”), under which stock options were granted to executive officers and key
employees as deemed appropriate under the provisions of the 2012 Plan, with an exercise price at the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The vesting period for options granted under the 2012 Plan is five years (20 10 years from the date of grant and are not transferable
other than upon death. As of July 15, 2015, the date of the pricing of the Company’s initial public offering, no additional equity grants will be made under the 2012 Plan.
In connection with its initial public offering, the Company adopted the 2015 equity incentive plan (the “2015 Plan”) pursuant to which the Company’s
Board of Directors may grant stock options, restricted shares or other awards to employees, directors and consultants. The 2015 Plan allows for the issuance of up to 5,250,000 shares. Awards will be made pursuant to agreements and may be subject to vesting and other restrictions as determined by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the
Board. The Company uses authorized and unissued shares to satisfy share award exercises. As of July 31, 2021, there were 2,570,106 shares available for grant under the 2015 Plan.

Stock Options
The exercise price for stock options is determined at the fair value of the underlying stock on the date of grant. The vesting period for awards
granted under the 2015 Plan is generally set at four years (25 10 years

The weighted average grant date fair value per option for options granted during the twenty-six weeks
ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 was $34.02 and $13.13 , respectively. The fair value of each option award is estimated on the date of grant using the Black-Scholes option-pricing model that used the weighted average assumptions in the
following table:

The expected life of stock options is estimated using the “simplified method,” as the Company does not have sufficient historical information to
develop reasonable expectations about future exercise patterns and post-vesting employment termination behavior for its stock option grants. The simplified method is based on the average of the vesting tranches and the contractual life of each
grant. For stock price volatility, the Company uses its historical information since its initial public offering as well as comparable public companies as a basis for its expected volatility to calculate the fair value of option grants. The
risk-free interest rate is based on U.S. Treasury notes with a term approximating the expected life of the option.
Restricted Stock Units
Restricted stock units (“RSUs”) are issued at a value not less than the fair value of the common stock on the date of the grant. RSUs outstanding vest
ratably over four years or cliff vest in
or four years . Awards are subject to employment for vesting and are not transferable other than upon death.

Stock-Based Compensation Expense
The compensation cost for stock options and RSUs which have been recorded within
selling, general and administrative expenses related to the Company’s equity incentive plans was $2.3 million and $1.7 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020, respectively, and $4.3 million and $3.0 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020, respectively.
As of July 31, 2021, there was $22.4 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation arrangements. That cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted average
period of 2.9 years. Compensation costs related to awards are recognized using the straight-line method.

Share Repurchase Program
On December 15, 2020, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $100.00 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. On March 16, 2021, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized an increase of $100.0 million in the Company’s share repurchase program. Both of these authorizations are authorized to be executed through January 2023. Shares under both authorizations may be purchased from
time to time in open market transactions (including blocks), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers or any combination of the foregoing. The timing of
repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate considerations. In addition, the authorizations
are subject to extension or earlier termination by the Board of Directors at any time.
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, the Company repurchased 430,178 shares of its common stock for $35.3 million, inclusive of transaction
costs, pursuant to its share repurchase program. These expenditures were funded by cash generated from operations. As of July 31, 2021, the Company had $164.7

consumer behavior, and changes in the mindset and availability of the labor force. We continue to monitor the impact of the pandemic on our business, including on our associates, customers, business partners and supply chain.
We continue to take measures to protect the health and safety of our associates and customers, a primary concern of our management team. We have also taken measures to
support the communities that we serve to address the challenges posed by the pandemic.
Following the onset of the pandemic, our net sales have benefited from increased consumer spending associated with federal stimulus funds for said pandemic. At this
time, there is uncertainty with regard to the continuation of these stimulus measures and, as a result, there may be potential changes in consumer spending behavior or demand. In addition, we are experiencing labor pressures at both our stores and
distribution centers, and we are experiencing supply chain disruptions due to COVID-19 and related measures. We are increasing our hiring efforts in certain impacted markets and working closely with our suppliers and transportation partners to
mitigate the impact of the supply chain challenges. The potential significance and duration of these elevated costs is uncertain, and we will continue to assess and respond to current and evolving conditions.
As we continue to monitor the COVID-19 pandemic and potentially take actions based on the requirements and recommendations of federal, state and local authorities, we
intend to focus on managing the business for future, long-term growth. In certain circumstances, there may be developments outside our control, including resurgences of COVID-19 and, in particular, new and more contagious or vaccine resistant
variants, requiring us to refine our operations. As such, given the evolving nature of the pandemic, we cannot reasonably estimate its impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the future. Refer to Part I, Item 1A.
Risk Factors of our 2020 Form 10-K for a full discussion of the risks associated with the COVID-19 pandemic.
Our Growth Strategy
Since the founding of Ollie’s in 1982, we have grown organically by backfilling existing markets and leveraging our brand awareness, marketing and infrastructure to
expand into new markets in contiguous states. We have expanded to 409 stores located in 28 states as of July 31, 2021.
Our stores are supported by three distribution centers, one each in York, PA, Commerce, GA and Lancaster, TX. We believe our distribution capabilities can support a
range of 500 to 600 stores over the next several years.
We have invested in our associates, infrastructure, distribution network and information systems to allow us to continue to rapidly grow our store footprint, including:
| • |
growing our merchant buying team to increase our access to brand name/closeout merchandise;
|
| • |
adding members to our senior management team;
|
| • |
expanding the capacity of our distribution centers to their current 2.2 million square feet; and
|
| • |
investing in information technology, accounting, and warehouse management systems.
|
Our business model has produced consistent and predictable store growth over the past several years, during both strong and weaker economic cycles. We plan to continue
to enhance our competitive positioning and drive growth in sales and profitability by executing on the following strategies:
| • |
growing our store base;
|
| • |
increasing our offerings of great bargains; and
|
| • |
leveraging and expanding Ollie’s Army, our customer loyalty program.
|
We have a proven portable, flexible and highly profitable store model that has produced consistent financial results and returns. Our new store model targets a store
size between 25,000 to 35,000 square feet and an average initial cash investment of approximately $1.0 million, which includes store fixtures and equipment, store-level and distribution center inventory (net of payables) and pre-opening expenses. We
target new store sales of approximately $4 million in their first full year of operations.
While we are focused on driving comparable store sales and managing our expenses, our revenue and profitability growth will primarily come from opening new stores. The
core elements of our business model are procuring great deals, offering extreme values to our customers and creating consistent, predictable store growth and margins. In addition, our new stores generally open strong, immediately contributing to the
growth in net sales and profitability of our business. We plan to achieve continued net sales growth, including comparable stores sales, by adding stores to our store base and by continuing to provide quality merchandise at a value for our customers
as we scale and gain more access to purchase directly from major manufacturers. We also plan to leverage and expand our Ollie’s Army database marketing strategies. In addition, we plan to continue to manage our selling, general and administrative
expenses (“SG&A”) by continuing to make process improvements and by maintaining our standard policy of reviewing our operating costs.
Our ability to grow and our results of operations may be impacted by additional factors and uncertainties, such as consumer spending habits, which are subject to
macroeconomic conditions and changes in discretionary income. Our customers’ discretionary income is primarily impacted by gas prices, wages and consumer trends and preferences, which fluctuate depending on the environment. The potential consolidation
of our competitors or other changes in our competitive landscape could also impact our results of operations or our ability to grow, even though we compete with a broad range of retailers.
Our key competitive advantage is our direct buying relationships with many major manufacturers, wholesalers, distributors, brokers and retailers for our brand name and
closeout products and unbranded goods. We also augment our product mix with private label brands. As we continue to grow, we believe our increased scale will provide us with even greater access to brand name and closeout products as major
manufacturers seek a single buyer to acquire an entire deal.
How We Assess the Performance of Our Business and Key Line Items
We consider a variety of financial and operating measures in assessing the performance of our business. The key measures we use are number of new stores, net sales,
comparable store sales, gross profit and gross margin, SG&A, pre-opening expenses, operating income, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA.
Number of New Stores
The number of new stores reflects the number of stores opened during a particular reporting period. Before we open new stores, we incur pre-opening expenses described
below under “Pre-Opening Expenses” and we make an initial investment in inventory. We also make initial capital investments in fixtures and equipment, which we amortize over time.
We expect new store growth to be the primary driver of our sales growth. Our initial lease terms are approximately seven years with options to renew for three to five
successive five-year periods. Our portable and predictable real estate model focuses on backfilling existing markets and entering new markets in contiguous states. Our new stores often open with higher
sales levels as a result of greater advertising and promotional spend in connection with grand opening events, but decline shortly thereafter to our new store model levels.
Net Sales
Ollie’s recognizes retail sales in its stores when merchandise is sold and the customer takes possession of the merchandise. Also included in net sales is revenue
allocated to certain redeemed discounts earned via the Ollie’s Army loyalty program and gift card breakage. Net sales are presented net of returns and sales tax. Net sales consist of sales from comparable stores and non-comparable stores, described
below under “Comparable Store Sales.” Growth of our net sales is primarily driven by expansion of our store base in existing and new markets. As we continue to grow, we believe we will have greater access to brand name and closeout merchandise and an
increased deal selection, resulting in more potential offerings for our customers. Net sales are impacted by product mix, merchandise mix and availability, as well as promotional activities and the spending habits of our customers. Our broad selection
of offerings across diverse product categories supports growth in net sales by attracting new customers, which results in higher spending levels and frequency of shopping visits from our customers, including Ollie’s Army members.
The spending habits of our customers are subject to macroeconomic conditions and changes in discretionary income. Our customers’ discretionary income is primarily
impacted by gas prices, wages, and consumer trends and preferences, which fluctuate depending on the environment. However, because we offer a broad selection of merchandise at extreme values, we believe we are less impacted than other retailers by
economic cycles that correspond with declines in general consumer spending habits. We believe we also benefit from periods of increased consumer spending.
Comparable Store Sales
Comparable store sales measure performance of a store during the current reporting period against the performance of the same store in the corresponding period of the
previous year. Comparable store sales consist of net sales from our stores beginning on the first day of the sixteenth full fiscal month following the store’s opening, which is when we believe comparability is achieved. Comparable store sales are
impacted by the same factors that impact net sales.
We define comparable stores to be stores that:
| • |
have been remodeled while remaining open;
|
| • |
are closed for five or fewer days in any fiscal month;
|
| • |
are closed temporarily and relocated within their respective trade areas; and
|
| • |
have expanded, but are not significantly different in size, within their current locations.
|
Non-comparable store sales consist of new store sales and sales for stores not open for a full 15 months. Stores which are closed temporarily, but for more than five
days in any fiscal month, are included in non-comparable store sales beginning in the fiscal month in which the temporary closure begins until the first full month of operation once the store re-opens, at which time they are included in comparable
store sales.
Opening new stores is the primary component of our growth strategy and as we continue to execute on our growth strategy, we expect a significant portion of our sales
growth will be attributable to non-comparable store sales. Accordingly, comparable store sales are only one measure we use to assess the success of our growth strategy.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit is equal to our net sales less our cost of sales. Cost of sales includes merchandise costs, inventory markdowns, shrinkage and transportation, distribution
and warehousing costs, including depreciation. Gross margin is gross profit as a percentage of our net sales. Gross margin is a measure used by management to indicate whether we are selling merchandise at an appropriate gross profit.
In addition, our gross margin is impacted by product mix, as some products generally provide higher gross margins, by our merchandise mix and availability, and by our
merchandise cost, which can vary.
Our gross profit is variable in nature and generally follows changes in net sales. We regularly analyze the components of gross profit, as well as gross margin.
Specifically, our product margin and merchandise mix is reviewed by our merchant team and senior management, ensuring strict adherence to internal margin goals. Our disciplined buying approach has produced consistent gross margins and we believe helps
to mitigate adverse impacts on gross profit and results of operation.
The components of our cost of sales may not be comparable to the components of cost of sales or similar measures of our competitors and other retailers. As a result,
our gross profit and gross margin may not be comparable to similar data made available by our competitors and other retailers.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A are comprised of payroll and benefits for store, field support and support center associates. SG&A also include marketing and advertising expense,
occupancy costs for stores and the store support center, insurance, corporate infrastructure and other general expenses. The components of our SG&A remain relatively consistent per store and for each new store opening. The components of our
SG&A may not be comparable to the components of similar measures of other retailers. Consolidated SG&A generally increase as we grow our store base and as our net sales increase. A significant portion of our expenses is primarily fixed in
nature, and we expect to continue to maintain strict discipline while carefully monitoring SG&A as a percentage of net sales. We expect that our SG&A will continue to increase in future periods with future growth.
Depreciation and Amortization Expenses
Property and equipment are stated at original cost less accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation and amortization expenses are calculated over the
estimated useful lives of the related assets, or in the case of leasehold improvements, the lesser of the useful lives or the remaining term of the lease. Expenditures for additions, renewals, and betterments are capitalized; expenditures for
maintenance and repairs are charged to expense as incurred. Depreciation and amortization are computed on the straight-line method for financial reporting purposes. Depreciation as it relates to our distribution centers is included within cost of sales
on the condensed consolidated statements of income.
Pre-Opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses consist of expenses of opening new stores and distribution centers, as well as store closing costs. For opening new stores, pre-opening expenses
include grand opening advertising costs, payroll expenses, travel expenses, employee training costs, rent expenses and store setup costs. Pre-opening expenses for new stores are expensed as they are incurred, which is typically within 30 to 45 days of
opening a new store. For opening distribution centers, pre-opening expenses primarily include inventory transportation costs, employee travel expenses and occupancy costs. Store closing costs primarily consist of insurance deductibles, rent and store
payroll.
Operating Income
Operating income is gross profit less SG&A, depreciation and amortization and pre-opening expenses. Operating income excludes net interest income or expense and
income tax expense or benefit. We use operating income as an indicator of the productivity of our business and our ability to manage expenses.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are key metrics used by management and our Board to assess our financial performance. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are also frequently used by
analysts, investors and other interested parties to evaluate companies in our industry. We use Adjusted EBITDA to supplement U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) measures of performance to evaluate the effectiveness of our business
strategies, to make budgeting decisions, to evaluate our performance in connection with compensation decisions and to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures. Management believes it is useful to investors
and analysts to evaluate these non-GAAP measures on the same basis as management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating results. We believe that excluding items from operating income, net income and net income per diluted share that may not be
indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude, enhances the comparability of our results and provides a better baseline for analyzing trends in our business.
We define EBITDA as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as
further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are non-GAAP measures and may not be comparable to similar measures reported by other companies. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA have limitations as analytical
tools, and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. In the future we may incur expenses or charges such as those added back to calculate Adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of
Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by these items. For further discussion of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA and for reconciliations of net income, the most directly comparable GAAP measure, to
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, see “Results of Operations.”
Factors Affecting the Comparability of our Results of Operations
Our results over the past two years have been affected by the following factors, which must be understood in order to assess the comparability of
our period-to-period financial performance and condition.
Historical Results
Historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for any future period.
We opened 12 and six new stores in the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, respectively. In connection with these store openings, we incurred expenses of
$2.5 million and $1.5 million for the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, respectively. We opened 23 new stores, including two relocated stores, in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. We opened 23 new stores and closed two stores, one
as planned and one closed temporarily due to smoke damage from a fire at an adjacent tenant, in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. In connection with these store openings and closings, we incurred expenses of $5.1 million and $5.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020, respectively.
Our business is seasonal in nature and demand is generally the highest in our fourth fiscal quarter due to the holiday sales season. To prepare for the holiday sales
season, we must order and keep in stock more merchandise than we carry during other times of the year and generally engage in additional marketing efforts. We expect inventory levels, along with accounts payable and accrued expenses, to reach their
highest levels in our third and fourth fiscal quarters in anticipation of increased net sales during the holiday sales season. As a result of this seasonality, and generally because of variation in consumer spending habits, we experience fluctuations
in net sales and working capital requirements during the year. Because we offer a broad selection of merchandise at extreme values, we believe we are less impacted than other retailers by economic cycles which correspond with declines in general
consumer spending habits and we believe we still benefit from periods of increased consumer spending.
Results of Operations
The following tables summarize key components of our results of operations for the periods indicated, both in dollars and as a percentage of our net sales.
We derived the condensed consolidated statements of income for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 from our unaudited condensed
consolidated financial statements and related notes. Our historical results are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected in the future.

Net Sales
Net sales decreased to $415.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $529.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a decrease of $113.4 million, or
21.4%. The decrease was the result of a comparable store sales decrease of $139.4 million offset by an increase in non-comparable store sales of $26.0 million. The increase in non-comparable store sales was driven by new store unit growth.
Comparable store sales decreased 28.0% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 compared with a 43.3% increase in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. In the second quarter
of fiscal 2020, we benefited from increased consumer spending associated with federal economic stimulus funds for the COVID-19 pandemic and having our stores open during the quarter while other retailers were closed for a portion of the period.
The decrease in comparable store sales in the quarter consisted of a decrease in both the number of transactions and average transaction size. Sales in our health and
beauty aids and housewares departments significantly decreased during the quarter due to a surge of COVID-related personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies sales in the prior year.
Gross profit decreased to $163.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $206.8 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a decrease of $43.8 million, or
21.2%. Gross margin increased 10 basis points to 39.2% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from 39.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in gross margin in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 is due to improvement in the merchandise
margin, partially offset by deleveraging of supply chain costs, primarily the result of higher transportation expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A increased to $110.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $109.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, an increase of $1.0 million, or 0.9%,
primarily driven by an increased number of stores and partially offset by tight expense controls throughout the organization. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 590 basis points to 26.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from 20.6% in
the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase was primarily due to significant deleveraging as a result of the decrease in sales.
Pre-Opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses for new stores increased to $2.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $1.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 due to the
comparative number and timing of new stores. We opened 12 and six new stores in the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, respectively. As a percentage of net sales, pre-opening expenses increased 30 basis points to 0.6% in the second
quarter of fiscal 2021 from 0.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
Income Tax Expense (Benefit)
Income tax expense in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 was $11.3 million compared to income tax benefit of $7.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The
effective tax rates for the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020 were 24.8% and (8.0)%, respectively. The variance in the effective tax rates in the quarters was primarily due to a significant decrease in excess tax benefits related to
stock-based compensation. The prior year effective tax rate was impacted by tax benefits due to the exercise of stock options by the estate of the Company’s former chief executive officer. Discrete tax benefits totaled $0.4 million and $30.5 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 and the second quarter of fiscal 2020, respectively.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased to $34.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $99.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a
decrease of $65.1 million or 65.5%.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $54.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2021 from $99.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, a decrease of $45.3 million, or
45.6%.
Twenty-Six Weeks 2021 Compared to Twenty-Six Weeks 2020
Net Sales
Net sales decreased to $868.4 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $878.7 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, a decrease of $10.3
million, or 1.2%. The decrease was the result of a comparable store sales decrease of $77.0 million and a non-comparable store sales increase of $66.7 million. The increase in non-comparable store sales was driven by new store unit growth and strong
new store performance.
Comparable store sales decreased 9.3% in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 compared with a 20.2% increase in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. In fiscal
2020, we benefited from increased consumer spending associated with federal economic stimulus funds for the COVID-19 pandemic and having our stores open while other retailers were closed for a portion of the period.
The decrease in comparable store sales in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 consisted of a decrease in both the number of transactions and average transaction
size. Sales in our health and beauty aids and housewares departments significantly decreased in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 due to a surge of COVID-related personal protective equipment and cleaning supplies sales in the prior year.
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
Gross profit decreased to $345.6 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $347.2 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, a decrease of $1.6
million, or 0.5%. Gross margin increased 30 basis points to 39.8% in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from 39.5% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. The increase in gross margin in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 is due to
improvement in the merchandise margin, partially offset by increases in and deleveraging of supply chain costs, primarily the result of higher transportation expenses.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
SG&A increased to $214.5 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $198.9 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, an increase of $15.6
million, or 7.9%, primarily driven by an increased number of stores and partially offset by tight expense controls throughout the organization. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 210 basis points to 24.7% in the twenty-six weeks ended
July 31, 2021 from 22.6% in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. The increase was primarily due to a significant deleveraging as a result of the decrease in sales.
Pre-Opening Expenses
Pre-opening expenses for new stores decreased to $5.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $5.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020
due to the comparative number and timing of new stores. During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, we opened 23 stores, including two relocated stores. During the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, we opened 23 stores and closed two stores,
one as planned and one closed temporarily due to smoke damage from a fire at an adjacent tenant. As a percentage of net sales, pre-opening expenses were 0.6% in both the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 was $27.3 million compared to income tax expense of $2.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1,
2020. The effective tax rates for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 were 23.4% and 1.7%, respectively. The variance in the effective tax rates in the twenty-six week periods was primarily due to a significant decrease in
excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation. The prior year effective tax rate was impacted by tax benefits due to the exercise of stock options by the estate of the Company’s former chief executive officer. Discrete tax benefits totaled
$2.5 million and $31.7 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 and the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, respectively.
Net Income
As a result of the foregoing, net income decreased to $89.5 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $132.8 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August
1, 2020, a decrease of $43.3 million or 32.6%.
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA decreased to $133.3 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 from $149.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020, a decrease of
$15.8 million, or 10.6%.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Overview
Our primary sources of liquidity are net cash flows provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility (“Revolving Credit
Facility”). Our primary cash needs are for capital expenditures and working capital. As of July 31, 2021, we had $88.6 million available to borrow under our Revolving Credit Facility and $444.3 million of cash and cash equivalents on hand. For
further information regarding our Revolving Credit Facility, see Note 6 under “Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.”
Our capital expenditures are primarily related to new store openings, store
resets, which consist of improvements to stores as they are needed, expenditures related to our distribution centers, and infrastructure-related investments, including investments related to upgrading and maintaining our information technology
systems. We spent $8.2 million and $5.7 million for capital expenditures during the second quarters of fiscal 2021 and fiscal 2020, respectively. For the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, we spent $17.7 million for capital expenditures compared to
$18.1 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. We expect to fund capital expenditures from net cash provided by operating activities. We opened 23 new stores including two relocated stores during the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021
and expect to open approximately 46 to 47 stores during 2021. However, we may experience delays in construction and permitting of new stores due to COVID-19.
Historically, we have funded our capital expenditures and working capital requirements during the fiscal year with cash flows from operations.
Our primary working capital requirements are for the purchase of inventory, payroll, rent, other store operating costs, distribution costs and general and administrative
costs. Our working capital requirements fluctuate during the year, rising in our third fiscal quarter as we increase quantities of inventory in anticipation of our peak holiday sales season in our fourth fiscal quarter. Fluctuations in working
capital are also driven by the timing of new store openings.
Based on our new store growth plans, we believe our cash and cash equivalents position, net cash provided by operating activities and availability under our Revolving
Credit Facility will be adequate to finance our planned capital expenditures, working capital requirements, debt service and other financing activities over the next 12 months. If cash provided by operating activities and borrowings under our
Revolving Credit Facility are not sufficient or available to meet our capital requirements, we will then be required to obtain additional equity or debt financing in the future. There can be no assurance equity or debt financing will be available to
us when needed or, if available, the terms will be satisfactory to us and not dilutive to our then-current stockholders.
We are not currently receiving, and do not currently intend to apply for, loans under any federal or state programs implemented as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic,
including the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act.
On March 26, 2019, the Board of Directors of the Company authorized the repurchase of up to $100.0 million of shares of our common stock. This initial tranche expired
on March 26, 2021. The Board authorized the repurchase of another $100.0 million of our common stock on December 15, 2020 and a $100.0 million increase on March 16, 2021, resulting in $200.0 million approved for share repurchases through January 13,
2023. The shares to be repurchased may be purchased from time to time in open market conditions (including blocks), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers or
any combination of the foregoing. The timing of repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of our shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate
considerations. Repurchases may be made pursuant to plans intended to comply with Rule 10b5-1 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, which could allow us to purchase our shares during periods when we otherwise might be prevented from doing so
under insider trading laws or because of self-imposed trading blackout periods. Repurchases are expected to be funded from cash on hand or through the utilization of our Revolving Credit Facility. The repurchase authorization does not require the
purchase of a specific number of shares and is subject to suspension or termination by our Board of Directors at any time.
During the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, we repurchased 430,178 shares of our common stock for $35.3 million, inclusive of transaction costs, pursuant to our
share repurchase program. We made no share repurchases during the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. These expenditures were funded by cash generated from operations. As of July 31, 2021, we had $164.7 million remaining under our share repurchase
authorization.
Subsequent to July 31, 2021 through August 30, 2021, we invested $36.4 million, inclusive of transaction costs, to repurchase an additional 464,857 shares of
our common stock, resulting in $128.3 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization. There can be no assurances that any additional repurchases will be completed, or as to the timing or amount of any repurchases.

Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $41.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 compared to $210.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended August
1, 2020. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 was primarily due to a decrease in net sales.
Cash Used in Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 was $14.7 million compared to net cash used in investing activities of $18.0 million
for the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. The comparative decrease in cash used in investing activities is primarily from proceeds from sale of property and equipment in the current year.
Cash (Used in) Provided by Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities was $30.0 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 as compared with net cash provided by financing activities of $23.0
million in the twenty-six weeks ended August 1, 2020. The net cash outflow in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 is due to payment for shares repurchased, partially offset by proceeds from stock option exercises.
Contractual Obligations
We enter into long-term contractual obligations and commitments in the normal course of business, primarily operating leases. Except as set forth in Note 4 of the
accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, there have been no material changes to our contractual obligations as disclosed in our Annual Report, other than those which occur in the ordinary course of business.
Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
We do not have any off-balance sheet arrangements that have or are reasonably likely to
have a current or future effect on our financial condition, changes in financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures or capital resources that is material to investors.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues, expenses and
related disclosures. There have been no significant changes in the significant accounting policies and estimates.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
Not applicable.
Interest Rate Risk
We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility, which bears interest at variable rates. As of July 31, 2021, we
had no outstanding variable rate debt.
As of July 31, 2021, there were no material changes in the market risks described in the “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure of Market Risks” section of our Annual
Report.
Impact of Inflation
Our results of operations and financial condition are presented based on historical cost. While it is difficult to accurately measure the impact of
inflation due to the imprecise nature of the estimates required, we believe the effects of inflation, if any, on our historical results of operations and financial condition have been immaterial. We cannot be assured that our results of operations and
financial condition will not be materially impacted by inflation in the future.
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of our
disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13(a)-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) of the
Exchange Act. Based on that evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are effective at a
reasonable assurance level in ensuring that information required to be disclosed in our Exchange Act reports is: (1) recorded, processed, summarized and reported in a timely manner, and (2) accumulated and communicated to our management, including our
Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our disclosure controls
and procedures will prevent or detect all errors and all fraud. While our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of their effectiveness, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation
of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes to our internal control over financial reporting during the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021 that have materially affected, or that are
reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
| ITEM 1. |
LEGAL PROCEEDINGS
|
From time to time we may be involved in claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of our business. We cannot predict the outcome
of any litigation or suit to which we are a party. However, we do not believe that an unfavorable decision of any of the current claims or legal actions against us, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our
financial position, results of operations, liquidity or capital resources.

On December 15, 2020, the Board of Directors authorized the repurchase of up to $100.00 million of shares of the Company’s common stock. On March 16, 2021, the Board of Directors
of the Company authorized an increase of $100.0 million in the Company’s share repurchase program resulting in $200.0 million approved for share repurchases through January 13, 2023. Shares under both authorizations may be purchased from time
to time in open market transactions (including blocks), privately negotiated transactions, accelerated share repurchase programs or other derivative transactions, issuer self-tender offers or any combination of the foregoing. The timing of
repurchases and the actual amount purchased will depend on a variety of factors, including the market price of the Company’s shares, general market, economic and business conditions, and other corporate considerations. In addition, the
authorizations are subject to extension or earlier termination by the Board of Directors at any time. As of July 31, 2021, the Company had $164.7 million remaining under its share repurchase program. For further discussion on the share
repurchase program, see “Part I, Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations, Liquidity and Capital Resources, Share Repurchase Program.”
