See accompanying notes. BIG DOG HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited) NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation: The accompanying unaudited financial consolidated statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulations S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal recurring entries necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the nine-month period ended September 30, 2001 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2001. For further information, refer to the financial statements and footnotes thereto for Big Dog Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned subsidiary, Big Dog USA, Inc. (the "Company") included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. NOTE 2. Short-term Borrowings The Company had a $25.0 million revolving credit facility ("Credit Agreement") with Bank of America and other lenders. The Credit Agreement had a three-year term and has scheduled annual commitment reductions. The maximum commitment balance was $25.0 million, $20.0 million and $15.0 million on December 31, 2001, June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively. The Credit Agreement was secured by substantially all assets of the Company, required the compliance of various financial affirmative and negative covenants and prohibited the payment of dividends. This Credit Agreement provided for a performance-pricing structured interest charge, ranging from LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75%, based on the results of certain financial ratios. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had $16.5 million outstanding under this Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company had $0.3 million of letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2001. The letters of credit expired through October 2001. In October 2001, the Company entered into a new $30.0 million three- year line of credit facility with Wells Fargo Retail Finance. In November 2001, the Company paid off and terminated its existing relationship and drew down approximately $18.0 million on the new facility. This facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and requires daily, weekly and monthly financial reporting as well as compliance of financial, affirmative and negative covenants. This credit agreement provides for a performance-pricing structured interest charge, ranging up to LIBOR plus 1.75% which is based on excess availability levels. NOTE 3. Stockholder's Equity In March 1998, the Company announced that its Board authorized the repurchase of up to $10,000,000 of its common stock. Between January 1, 2001 and September 30, 2001, the Company repurchased 31,020 shares of common stock totaling $126,000. NOTE 4. Recently Issued Accounting Standards In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No.133 establishes accounting and reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative instruments embedded in other contracts and for hedging activities. The statement requires that the Company recognize all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the balance sheet and measure those instruments at fair value. The Company adopted SFAS No. 133 effective January 1, 2001. The adoption of In July 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141, "Business Combinations" and SFAS No. 142, "Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets". SFAS No. 141 requires that all business combinations be accounted for under the purchase method. The statement further requires separate recognition of intangible assets that meet one of two criteria. The statement applies to all business combinations initiated after June 30, 2001. SFAS No. 142 requires that an intangible asset that is acquired shall be initially recognized and measured based on its fair value. The statement also provides that goodwill should not be amortized, but shall be tested for impairment annually, or more frequently if circumstances indicate potential impairment, through a comparison of fair value to its carrying amount. SFAS No. 142 is effective for fiscal periods beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS Nos. 141 and 142. In August 2001, the FASB issued SFAS No.144, "Accounting for the Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets." SFAS No. 144 supercedes SFAS No. 121, "Accounting for the Impairment of Long-Lived Assets and Long-Lived Assets to be Disposed of" and Accounting Principles Board Opinion ("APB") No. 30, "Reporting the Results of Operations - Reporting the Effects of the Disposal of a Segment Business and Extraordinary, Unusual and Infrequently Occurring Events and Transactions." SFAS No.144 establishes a single accounting model for assets to be disposed of by sale whether previously held and used or newly acquired. SFAS No. 144 retains the provisions of APB No. 30 for presentation of discontinued operations in the income statement, but broadens the presentation to include a component of an entity. SFAS No. 144 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2001. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting SFAS No. 144. ITEM 2: MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the Company's financial statements and notes related thereto. Certain minor differences in the amounts below result from rounding of the amounts shown in the consolidated financial statements. This quarterly report on Form 10-Q contains forward-looking statements within the meaning of federal securities laws, which are intended to be covered by the safe harbors created thereby. Those statements include, but may not be limited to, the discussions of the Company's operating and growth strategy. Investors are cautioned that all forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties including, without limitation, those set forth under the caption "risk factors" in the business section of the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000. Although the Company believes that the assumptions underlying the forward-looking statements contained herein are reasonable, any of the assumptions could prove to be inaccurate, and therefore, there can be no assurance that the forward-looking statements included in this quarterly report on Form 10-Q will prove to be accurate. In light of the significant uncertainties inherent in the forward-looking statements included herein, the inclusion of such information should not be regarded as a representation by the Company or any other person that the objectives and plans of the company will be achieved. The Company undertakes no obligation to publicly release any revisions to any forward-looking statements contained herein to reflect events and circumstances occurring after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Company's unaudited financial statements and notes thereto included elsewhere in this quarterly report on form 10-Q, and the annual audited financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company's annual report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. RESULTS OF OPERATIONS Three Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 NET SALES. Net sales consist of sales from the Company's stores, catalog, internet website, and wholesale accounts, all net of returns and allowances. Net sales decreased to $30.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 from $31.5 million for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $1.3 million, or 4.1%. Of the decrease, $2.0 million was attributable to a 7.0% comparable stores sales decrease. This was offset by $0.1 million from new stores (not yet qualifying as comparable stores), a $0.2 million increase in the Company's wholesale business, and a $0.4 million increase in catalog and internet sales. The decrease in sales reflects a continual softening in the retail environment and resulting decreased customer traffic at the Company's retail store locations. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased to $17.3 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 from $18.5 million for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $1.2 million, or 6.5%. This decrease was due in part to lower product sales. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 57.3% in the three months ended September 30, 2001 from 58.8% in the same period in 2000. This 1.5% decrease was primarily due to increased sales promotions during the third quarter of 2001. SELLING, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION EXPENSES. Selling, marketing and distribution expenses consist of expenses associated with creating, distributing and selling products through all channels of distribution, including occupancy, payroll and catalog costs. Selling, marketing and distribution expenses decreased to $12.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2001 from $13.4 million in the same period for 2000, a decrease of $0.7 million, or 5.2%. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased to 42.1% in the three months ended September 30, 2001 from 42.4% in the same period in 2000, a decrease of 0.3%. The decrease in selling, marketing and distribution expenses is attributable to reduced depreciation expense of $0.3 million and store operating expenses of $0.4 million. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses consist of administrative salaries, corporate occupancy costs and other corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses decreased to $1.2 million for the three months ended September 30, 2001 from $1.3 million for the same period 2000, a decrease of $0.1 million, or 7.7%. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased to 3.9% in the three months ended September 30, 2001 from 4.0% in the same period in 2000. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased to $0.4 million in the three months ended September 30, 2001 from $0.1 million in the same period in 2000, principally due to interest on the higher outstanding short-term borrowings during the period. Nine Months Ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 NET SALES. Net sales decreased to $72.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $74.3 million for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $1.9 million or 2.6%. Of the decrease, $3.6 million was attributable to a 5.3% comparable stores sales decrease and $0.7 million from a decrease in the Company's wholesale business. This was offset by $1.5 million from new stores (not yet qualifying as comparable stores) and a $0.9 million increase in catalog and internet sales. The decrease in sales reflects a continual softening in the retail environment and resulting decreased customer traffic at the Company's retail store locations. GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit decreased to $40.8 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $43.2 million for the same period in 2000, a decrease of $2.4 million or 5.6%. The decrease is primarily attributable to lower product sales. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased to 56.3% in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 58.2% in the same period in 2000. This 1.9% decrease was primarily due to increased sales promotions during the first three quarters of 2001. SELLING, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION EXPENSES. Selling, marketing and distribution expenses increased to $38.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $37.7 million in the same period for 2000, an increase of $0.3 million, or 0.8%. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses increased to 52.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 50.7% in the same period in 2000, a increase of 1.8%. During the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company had an average of 199 stores in operation, compared to an average of 194 stores open in the same period in 2000. The increase in selling, marketing and distribution expenses is primarily attributable to $0.3 million of additional store operating costs and a $0.4 million provision for losses on wholesale receivables due to the bankruptcy filing of a significant wholesale account, Casual Male. For the nine months ended September 30, 2000, selling, marketing and distribution expenses were offset by insurance proceeds of approximately $0.3 million. GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses increased to $4.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $3.9 million for the same period 2000, an increase of $0.1 million, or 2.6%. As a percentage of net sales, these expenses increased to 5.5% in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from 5.3% in the same period in 2000. OTHER INCOME. In the nine months ended September 30, 2001, other income resulted from a $0.3 million gain on the sale of PETsMART.com stock. After careful consideration of the internet and capital markets, the Company wrote-off its entire $3,000,000 investment in PETsMART.com stock at December 31, 2000. Subsequently, in June 2001, a proposal and acceptance occurred whereby the Company sold this stock for $334,000. INTEREST EXPENSE. Interest expense increased to $1.0 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 from $0.1 million interest income in the same period in 2000, principally due to interest on the outstanding short-term borrowings. LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES During the third quarter of 2001, the Company's primary uses of cash were for merchandise inventories, taxes and accrued expenses. The Company satisfied its cash requirements primarily from existing cash balances and short-term borrowings under its credit agreement. Cash used in operating activities was $14.4 million and $12.7 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000, respectively. Cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2001 and 2000 were $61,000 and $0.9 million, respectively. Cash flows used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2001 primarily related to 8 new store openings and capital additions to the Company's existing stores, offset by proceeds received from the sales of the PETsMART.com investment, property, and equipment. Cash flows used in investing activities in the first nine months of 2000 primarily related to 12 new store openings and capital additions to the Company's existing stores. Cash provided by financing activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2001 were $10.4 million, compared to $3.3 million of cash used in the same period in 2000. In the nine months ended September 30, 2001, the Company had net borrowings of $10.5 million under its revolving credit facility and used $0.1 million to repurchase common stock. In the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company paid an annual dividend of $0.10 per share to stockholders for a total dividend payment of $1.2 million. Additionally, in the nine months ended September 30, 2000, the Company repurchased approximately $22.0 million of common stock. The Company had a $25.0 million revolving credit facility ("Credit Agreement") with Bank of America and other lenders. The Credit Agreement had a three-year term and has scheduled annual commitment reductions. The maximum commitment balance was $25.0 million, $20.0 million and $15.0 million on December 31, 2001, June 30, 2002 and December 31, 2002, respectively. The Credit Agreement was secured by substantially all assets of the Company, required the compliance of various financial affirmative and negative covenants and prohibited the payment of dividends. This Credit Agreement provided for a performance-pricing structured interest charge, ranging from LIBOR plus 1.75% to 2.75%, based on the results of certain financial ratios. As of September 30, 2001, the Company had $16.5 million outstanding under this Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company had $0.3 million of letters of credit outstanding as of September 30, 2001. The letters of credit expired through October 2001. In October 2001, the Company entered into a new $30.0 million three-year line of credit facility with Wells Fargo Retail Finance. In November 2001, the Company paid off and terminated its existing relationship and drew down approximately $18.0 million on the new facility. This facility is secured by substantially all of the Company's assets and requires daily, weekly and monthly financial reporting as well as compliance of financial, affirmative and negative covenants. This credit agreement provides for a performance-pricing structured interest charge, ranging up to LIBOR plus 1.75% which is based on excess availability levels. SEASONALITY The Company believes its seasonality is somewhat different than many apparel retailers since a significant number of the Company's stores are located in tourist areas and outdoor malls that have different visitation patterns than urban and suburban retail centers. The third and fourth quarters (consisting of the summer vacation, back-to-school and Christmas seasons) have historically accounted for the largest percentage of the Company's annual sales and profits. The Company has historically incurred operating losses in its first quarter and may be expected to do so in the foreseeable future. STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING DISCLOSURE Certain sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the preceding "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," contain various forward looking statements within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represents the Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events. These forward looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, and the Company cautions that these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking statements. Primary factors that could cause actual results to differ include those listed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2000 filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. ITEM 3: QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK The Company does not believe it has material exposure to losses from market-rate sensitive instruments. The Company has not invested in derivative financial instruments. The Company has a new credit facility with a performance-pricing structured interest charge, ranging up to LIBOR plus 1.75% based on excess availability levels. See "Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations-Liquidity and Capital Resources." PART II.
