ABERCROMBIE & FITCH REPORTS FOURTH QUARTER RESULTS
| |
• | Gross margin rate up 100 basis points on a constant currency basis |
| |
• | Ending inventory down 5% |
New Albany, Ohio, March 2, 2016: Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (NYSE: ANF) today reported GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.85 for the fourth quarter ended January 30, 2016, compared to $0.63 for the fourth quarter last year. Excluding certain items, the company reported adjusted non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $1.08 for the fourth quarter, compared to $1.15 for the fourth quarter last year.
In addition, the company reported GAAP net income per diluted share of $0.51 for the full year, compared to $0.71 for the full year last year. Excluding certain items, the company reported adjusted non-GAAP net income per diluted share of $1.12 for the full year, compared to $1.54 for the full year last year.
Adjusted non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the fourth quarter and full year were adversely impacted by approximately $0.23 and $0.67, respectively, related to changes in foreign currency exchange rates compared to the prior year. A description of the use of non-GAAP financial measures and a schedule reconciling GAAP financial measures to adjusted non-GAAP financial measures accompanies this release.
Arthur Martinez, Executive Chairman, said:
"We were pleased to deliver results in line with our expectations against the backdrop of a challenging environment that included currency, traffic and weather headwinds. Our results for the fourth quarter reflect continued progress on a number of fronts and included a return to positive comparable sales, higher average unit retails as promotional activity was moderated, and meaningful improvement in adjusted operating income on a constant currency basis. In addition, inventory continued to be well managed and we generated strong free cash flow for the year.
2015 was a year of tremendous change for us. We completed our move to a branded structure, strengthened our teams and improved our core processes. More importantly, we evolved our assortment and we refocused our attention on our customer through greater accountability and empowerment at the store level, and through changes in our in-store experience. In addition, we continued to invest in direct-to-consumer and omnichannel and execute our aggressive store closure program. While we accomplished a lot, there is much more progress we need to make to fulfill the potential of our brands.
As we look ahead to 2016, it is likely to remain a challenging environment, but we believe we are on the right track and we will continue to focus on delivering a customer-centric shopping experience and compelling assortments based on clearly defined brand positions."

Outlook
For fiscal 2016, the company expects:
| |
• | Flat to slightly positive comparable sales |
| |
• | Adverse effects from foreign currency on sales of approximately $50 million |
| |
• | A gross margin rate approximately flat to last year's adjusted non-GAAP rate of 61.9%, but up on a constant currency basis |
| |
• | Slight leverage in operating expense relative to last year's adjusted non-GAAP rate of 58.3% |
| |
• | An improvement over last year's adjusted non-GAAP operating income, despite an adverse effect from foreign currency of approximately $30 million; the effect from foreign currency, calculated on a constant currency basis, is determined by applying fiscal 2016 forecasted rates to fiscal 2015 results and is net of the year-over-year impact from hedging |
| |
• | An effective tax rate in the mid-to-upper 30s |
| |
• | A weighted average diluted share count of approximately 68 million shares, excluding the effect of potential share buybacks |
The company is targeting capital expenditures in the range of $150 million to $175 million for the fiscal year, including approximately $70 million for new stores and store updates and approximately $70 million for direct-to-consumer/omnichannel and IT investments to support growth and continuous profit improvement initiatives.
The company plans to open approximately 15 full-price stores in fiscal 2016, including approximately 10 in international markets, primarily China, and approximately five in the U.S. The company also plans to open approximately 10 new outlet stores, primarily in the U.S. In addition, the company anticipates closing approximately 60 stores in the U.S. during the fiscal year through natural lease expirations.
Excluded from the company's full year outlook are potential charges, such as those related to impairments, store closings and its strategic initiatives.

REPORTING AND USE OF GAAP AND NON-GAAP MEASURES
The company believes that the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this news release are useful to investors as they provide the ability to measure the company’s operating performance as compared to historical periods excluding the effect of certain items which the company believes do not reflect its future operating outlook. Management used these non-GAAP financial measures during the periods presented to assess the company's performance, to make decisions about how to allocate resources and to develop expectations for future operating performance. In addition, the company provides certain financial information on a constant currency basis to enhance investors' understanding of underlying business trends and operating performance. The effect from foreign currency, calculated on a constant currency basis, is determined by applying current period exchange rate to prior year results and is net of the year-over-year impact from hedging. Non-GAAP financial measures should be used in conjunction with, not as an alternative to, the company's GAAP financial results.
