THE TILE SHOP REPORTS First Quarter 2023 RESULTS

 

MINNEAPOLIS – May 4, 2023 – Tile Shop Holdings, Inc. (Nasdaq: TTSH) (the “Company”), a specialty retailer of natural stone and man-made tiles, today announced results for its first quarter ended March 31, 2023.

 

First Quarter Summary

 

Net Sales Decreased (0.4)%

Comparable Store Sales Increased 0.1%

Gross Margin of 64.2%

Net income of $2.5 Million and Adjusted EBITDA of $10.3 Million

Diluted Earnings per Share of $0.06

 

Management Commentary – Cabell Lolmaugh, CEO

 

“Our sales during the first quarter were flat with last year.” stated Cabell Lolmaugh, CEO. “Ocean freight costs have come down which contributed to a slowing rate of margin decline. Cash generated from operations was used to repay a portion of our borrowings on our line of credit and bring our debt balance down to $25.0 million as of the end of the quarter.”

(1)As compared to the prior year period.
(2)The comparable store sales operating metric 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 calculation. Comparable store sales includes total charges to customers less any actual returns. The Company includes the change in allowance for anticipated sales returns applicable to comparable stores in the comparable store sales calculation.

 

FIRST QUARTER 2023

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales for the first quarter of 2023 decreased $0.5 million, or (0.4)%, over the first quarter of 2022. Sales increased at comparable stores by 0.1% during the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022 due to an increase in average ticket that was offset by a decrease in traffic.

 

Gross Profit

 

Gross profit decreased $1.3 million, or 2.0%, in the first quarter of 2023 compared to the first quarter of 2022. The gross margin rate was 64.2% and 65.2% during the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The decrease in the gross margin rate was primarily due to inflationary cost pressure which resulted in an increase in the cost of products sold over last year. These cost increases were partially offset by an increase in our selling prices.

 

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased $0.7 million, or 1.1%, from $62.1 million in the first quarter of 2022 to $61.4 million in the first quarter of 2023. The decrease was due to a $1.1 million decrease in variable compensation expenses, a $0.9 million decrease in transportation expenses and a $0.7 million decrease in depreciation expense that were partially offset by a $0.6 million increase in wages due to headcount and pay increases, a $0.6 million increase in software licensing costs and a $0.4 million increase in operating supplies. During the first quarter of 2023, we recorded a $0.1 million asset impairment charge.

 

 

 

 

Provision for Income Taxes

 

The provision for income taxes for the first quarter of 2023 and 2022 was $0.8 million and $1.0 million respectively. The decrease in the provision for income tax was due to a decrease in pretax income. Our effective tax rate was 24.5% and 21.4% in the first quarter of 2023 and 2022, respectively. The increase in the effective tax rate is largely due to a decrease in the tax benefit associated with employee equity award vestings that occurred during the first quarter of 2023.

 

Capital Structure and Liquidity

 

During the first quarter of 2023, we repaid $20.4 million of borrowings outstanding on our line of credit reducing our debt balance from $45.4 million as of December 31, 2022 to $25.0 million as of March 31, 2023. Cash and cash equivalents increased by $2.7 million from $5.9 million on December 31, 2022 to $8.6 million on March 31, 2023.

 

Interest expense increased by $0.5 million from $0.3 million during the first quarter of 2022 to $0.8 million during the first quarter of 2023. The increase in interest expense is due to an increase in average borrowings outstanding on our line of credit as well as an increase in interest rates between the first quarter of 2022 and the first quarter of 2023.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusting for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. 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, 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.
