| (2) | Comparable store sales (decline) growth is the percentage change in sales of comparable stores
period over period. A store is considered comparable on the first day of the 13th full month of operation. When a store is relocated,
it is excluded from the comparable store sales (decline) growth calculation. Comparable store sales (decline) growth amounts include
total charges to customers less any actual returns. Comparable store sales data reported by other companies may be prepared on
a different basis and therefore may not be useful for purposes of comparing the Company’s results to those of other businesses.
Company management believes the comparable store sales (decline) growth metric provides useful information to both management and
investors to evaluate the Company’s performance, the effectiveness of its strategy and its competitive position. |
Fourth QUARTER 2020
Net Sales
Net sales decreased $5.3 million, or 6.4%, from $83.9 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 to $78.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. Comparable store sales decreased $5.5 million, or 6.6%, for the fourth quarter of 2019 compared to the fourth quarter of 2018 primarily due to lower customer traffic. Net sales generated by stores not included in the comparable store base increased $0.2 million.
Gross Profit
Gross profit decreased $5.3 million, or 9.0%, from $59.0 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 to $53.7 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The gross margin rate was 68.4% for the fourth quarter of 2019 and 70.3% for the fourth quarter of 2018. The decrease in the gross margin rate during the fourth quarter of 2019 was primarily due to higher levels of discounts, an increase in shrink and damaged inventory write-offs, and a lower freight collection rate.
Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.1 million, or 0.2%, from $58.3 million in the fourth quarter of 2018 to $58.2 million in the fourth quarter of 2019. The decrease in selling, general and administrative expenses was driven primarily by a decrease in variable store compensation expense.
Inventory
Inventory decreased $12.5 million from $110.1 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018 to $97.6 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019.
Long-Term Debt
Long-term debt increased $10.0 million from $53.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2018 to $63.0 million at the end of the fourth quarter of 2019. The increase reflects additional amounts drawn on the line of credit to fund share repurchases in the second quarter of 2019.
NON-GAAP INFORMATION
Adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA for the fourth quarter of 2019 was $5.1 million compared with $8.7 million for the fourth quarter of 2018. See the table below for a reconciliation of GAAP net (loss) income to Adjusted EBITDA.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net (loss) income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusting for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock based compensation. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. The Company calculates Pretax Return on Capital Employed by taking income (loss) from operations divided by capital employed. Capital employed equals total assets less accounts payable, income taxes payable, other accrued liabilities, deferred rent, lease liability and other long-term liabilities. Other companies may calculate both Adjusted EBITDA and Pretax Return on Capital Employed differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Company management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare Company performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation, for budgeting and planning purposes, and for assessing the effectiveness of capital allocation over time. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and the Board of Directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other specialty retailers, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Company management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the business.
