FISCAL 2009 FIRST QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Net Sales:  For the fiscal 2009 first quarter, consolidated net sales were $645.6 million, a decline of 1.6% over fiscal 2008 first quarter of $655.8 million, and include a negative impact from foreign currency exchange of $24.8 million, or 3.8% of sales.Positive same store sales growth of 0.04% and the addition of new stores and acquisitions partially offset the unfavorable impact of foreign currency exchange.

Gross Profit:  Consolidated gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 47.0%, a 30 basis point improvement from the fiscal 2008 first quarter.   The Sally Beauty and BSG segments both improved gross margins over the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2009 first quarter was $303.5 million, a decrease of 0.9% over gross profit of $306.2 million for the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Gross profit was negatively affected by foreign currency exchange of $11.0 million, or 3.6% of gross profit.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:  For the fiscal 2009 first quarter, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $225.5 million, or 34.9% of sales, a 70 basis point increase over the fiscal 2008 first quarter metric of 34.2% of sales and total SG&A of $224.5 million.  Fiscal 2009 first quarter SG&A expenses increased $1.0 million, or 0.4%, compared to the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  This increase is primarily due to rent and occupancy-related expenses associated with the opening of new stores and to acquired businesses, and higher advertising expenses associated with Sally Beauty’s Customer Relations Management (CRM) campaign.  Partially offsetting this increase was a decline in unallocated corporate and share-based compensation expenses.  Unallocated corporate expenses declined by $1.7 million, or 9.6%, to $15.6 million for the fiscal 2009 first quarter compared to $17.3 million in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Share-based compensation expense for the fiscal 2009 first quarter was $3.6 million, down $2.0 million when compared to $5.6 million in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.

Note: SG&A expenses include unallocated corporate expenses, as detailed in the Company’s segment information on Schedule B.

Interest Expense: Interest expense, net of interest income, for the fiscal 2009 first quarter was $39.7 million and included $3.0 million in non-cash charges related to the Company’s interest rate swap transactions.  Fiscal 2008 first quarter interest expense was $46.5 million and included $5.7 million in non-cash charges for the mark-to-market change in fair value for the Company’s interest rate swap transactions.  Interest expense is down $6.8 million over the fiscal 2008 first quarter principally due to lower interest rates on the Company’s asset-based loan (ABL) revolving credit facility and the Company’s Senior Term Loans.

The Company is accounting for four of its interest rate swap transactions on a mark-to-market basis, whereby changes in the fair value increase or decrease net interest expense, and therefore affect reported net earnings and earnings per share.  In November 2008, two of the interest rate swaps with an aggregate notional amount of $150 million expired. The other two interest rate swaps, with an aggregate notional value $350 million, expire in November of 2009.  The mark-to-market adjustment reported in net earnings associated with these interest rate swaps will not reoccur after the November 2009 expiration.

Provision for Income Taxes:  Income taxes were $10.5 million for the fiscal 2009 first quarter versus $9.1 million in fiscal 2008 first quarter.  The Company’s effective tax rate for fiscal 2009 first quarter was approximately 39.6% compared to 38.7% for the fiscal 2008 first quarter.

Net Earnings and Diluted Net Earnings Per Share (EPS):  For the fiscal 2009 first quarter, adjusted net earnings (a non-GAAP measure) increased by 0.4% to $18.0 million, or $0.10 earnings per diluted share, after adjusting for $1.9 million, or approximately $0.01 per diluted share, in after-tax non-cash interest charges from changes in the fair value of the Company’s mark-to-market interest rate swaps.  For the fiscal 2008 first quarter, adjusted net earnings were $18.0 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, after adjusting for $3.6 million, or approximately $0.02 per diluted share, in non-cash interest charges from changes in the fair value of the mark-to-market interest rate swaps. On a GAAP basis, net earnings for the fiscal 2009 first quarter grew 12.0% to $16.1 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared to $14.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, for the fiscal 2008 first quarter.

Adjusted (Non-GAAP) EBITDA:  Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal 2009 first quarter was $81.6 million a decline of 6.4% from $87.2 million for the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  This decrease was a result of softness in the Sally U.K. business, unfavorable foreign currency exchange, and increased selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses.

Note: A detailed table reconciling fiscal 2009 first quarter and fiscal 2008 first quarter GAAP net earnings to adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA is included in Supplemental Schedule C.

Financial Position, Capital Expenditures and Working Capital:  Cash and cash equivalents as of December 31, 2008, were $112.6 million.  The Company’s asset-based loan (ABL) revolving credit facility began the fiscal 2009 first quarter at $75.0 million of outstanding borrowings and such borrowings remained unchanged at the end the fiscal 2009 first quarter.  As a reminder, on September 18, 2008, the Company borrowed $75 million in principal amount under its ABL facility to increase its cash position in order to preserve its financial flexibility in light of the dislocation of the financial markets.  This principal amount is reflected in the short-term liability section of the balance sheet.  Additional borrowing capacity on the ABL facility was approximately $267.4 million at the end of the fiscal 2009 first quarter.  In addition, the Company paid down $6.1 million of its senior term loans during the fiscal 2009 first quarter.  The Company’s debt, excluding capital leases, totaled $1.8 billion as of December 31, 2008.

Capital expenditures in the fiscal 2009 first quarter were $8.4 million.  The Company is reducing its fiscal year 2009 capital expenditure projections to a range of $35-$40 million, down from the previous projection of $40-$45 million.

Inventories as of December 31, 2008 were $571.7 million, a decrease of $26.5 million from September 30, 2008 and a decrease of $24.0 million from December 31, 2007.  As previously stated in the fiscal 2008 fourth quarter, inventory levels have declined with the completion of the BSG warehouse optimization project.

Business Segment Results:

Sally Beauty Supply

Fiscal 2009 First Quarter Results for Sally Beauty Supply

Net sales were $410.5 million, up 0.2% from $409.6 million in fiscal 2008 first quarter.  The year-over-year change in net sales was positively impacted by revenue growth from new store openings of 1.5% and from acquisitions of 2.7%, and was partially offset by same store sales decline of 0.21%.  The impact of unfavorable foreign currency exchange on net sales was $17.2 million, or 4.2% of sales.  Same store sales for the Sally Beauty segment were negatively impacted by the soft economy in the U.K. and a weaker

holiday selling environment. Gross margin at Sally Beauty Supply for the fiscal 2009 first quarter was 51.9%, up 30 basis points from 51.6% in the fiscal 2008 first quarter. This margin expansion is primarily due to favorable sales trends resulting from recent marketing efforts, low-cost sourcing initiatives, and improved product mix.

Segment operating earnings for the fiscal 2009 first quarter were $65.3 million, or 15.9% of net sales, compared to $71.7 million, or 17.5% of net sales in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Sally segment operating earnings decreased by 9.0% over fiscal 2008 first quarter primarily due to softer sales in the U.K. and higher advertising and administrative costs.

Sally Beauty Supply ended its fiscal 2009 first quarter with 2,849 Sally Beauty Supply stores, an increase of 4.5%, or 123 stores over the fiscal 2008 first quarter.

In the near-term, the Company is widening the organic store growth projection to allow flexibility to capitalize on potential real estate values in key locations.  The previous fiscal 2009 organic store growth range of 4% to 5% is now in the range of 3% to 5% in fiscal 2009.

Beauty Systems Group

Fiscal 2009 First Quarter Results for Beauty Systems Group

During the fiscal 2009 first quarter, BSG same store sales increased by 0.76%.  BSG net sales were $235.0 million, a decrease of 4.5%, from the fiscal 2008 first quarter of $246.2 million.  This sales decline is attributed to the negative impact from foreign currency exchange of $7.6 million or 3.2% of sales and underperformance in the franchise business.

BSG gross margins were 38.6% of net sales in the fiscal 2009 first quarter, up 20 basis points from 38.4% of net sales in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Gross margin expansion for the quarter was primarily due to sales mix and the expansion of new and existing territories.

Segment operating earnings were $20.2 million in the fiscal 2009 first quarter, down 3.8% from $21.0 million in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  This decline was primarily due to underperformance in the franchise business and a negative impact from foreign currency exchange.  Segment operating margins increased by 10 basis points to 8.6% of sales from 8.5% in the fiscal 2008 first quarter.  Operating margin improvement reflects cost reduction initiatives and improved sales mix.

The BSG segment ended the fiscal 2009 first quarter with 920 stores, including 162 franchise locations, a year-over-year increase of 1.7% or 15 stores versus the fiscal 2008 first quarter.

(1)Sally Beauty Holdings has historically, and continues to report same store sales in constant currency to minimize the fluctuations of foreign currency exchange rates.   Net sales as reported include the impact of foreign currency exchange rates.  As we announced on November 20, 2008, we began reporting sales from the Sally Beauty Supply Internet website in same store sales beginning with the fiscal 2009 first quarter.
