Consolidated net sales for the fiscal 2010 third quarter were $743.0 million, an increase of 10.3% from the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Same store sales in the fiscal 2010 third quarter grew 4.6% compared to 2.6% in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Net earnings(1) in the fiscal 2010 third quarter were $41.1 million; growth of 30.6% over GAAP net earnings of $31.5 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter and growth of 37.1% over adjusted net earnings of $30.0 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Diluted earnings per share (1) in the fiscal 2010 third quarter were $0.22; growth of 29.4% over GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.17 and growth of 37.5% over adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.16 in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.

“Strong performance across all of our businesses led to another outstanding quarter for Sally Beauty Holdings” stated Gary Winterhalter, President and Chief Executive Officer. “Consolidated same store sales growth of 4.6% contributed to strong revenue growth of 10.3% while gross profit margin expanded by 140 basis points.  And for the first time during a quarter, Adjusted EBITDA reached the $100 million mark.  Our business is performing in line with historical trends and we believe that this underscores the stability and consistency of our business model.  We do not expect these trends to change in the foreseeable future.”

(1)Interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $350 million expired on November 24, 2009 and did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment.  The Company accounted for these interest rate swap transactions on a marked-to-market basis, whereby changes in the fair value increased or decreased interest expense. The Company reported changes in fair value as an adjustment to net earnings and earnings per share, both non-GAAP measures.  Post the November 24, 2009 interest swap agreement expiration; it is no longer necessary for the Company to report adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share except when reporting historical financial data.

FISCAL 2010 THIRD QUARTER FINANCIAL HIGHLIGHTS

Net Sales:  For the fiscal 2010 third quarter, consolidated net sales were $743.0 million, an increase of 10.3% from the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  The fiscal 2010 third quarter sales increase is attributed to consolidated same stores sales growth of 4.6% and the addition of new stores through both organic growth and acquisitions.  The impact from changes in foreign currency exchange rates in the fiscal 2010 third quarter was immaterial on a consolidated basis.

Gross Profit:  Consolidated gross profit for the fiscal 2010 third quarter was $360.9 million, an increase of 13.5% over gross profit of $317.8 million for the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Gross profit as a percentage of sales was 48.6%, a 140 basis point improvement from the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Gross margin expanded in both business segments and was primarily due to improved sales, product and customer mix, low cost sourcing and improvement in the U.K. business at Sally Beauty Supply.

Selling, General and Administrative Expenses:  For the fiscal 2010 third quarter, consolidated selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses, including unallocated corporate expenses and share-based compensation, were $255.6 million, or 34.4% of sales, a 110 basis point increase from the fiscal 2009 third quarter metric of 33.3% of sales and total SG&A expenses of $224.0 million. Fiscal 2010 third quarter SG&A expenses increased $31.6 million due to higher expenses associated with the Company’s loyalty programs, international expansion, and restored pay increases that were suspended in fiscal year 2009.  In addition, expenses associated with the opening of new stores and acquisitions such as rent, occupancy, and payroll expenses contributed to the year over year expense increase.

Unallocated corporate expenses increased $1.5 million to $20.1 million for the fiscal 2010 third quarter compared to $18.6 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  This increase is primarily due to international expansion and restored pay increases that were suspended in fiscal year 2009.

Share-based compensation expense for the fiscal 2010 third quarter increased $0.9 million to $2.5 million, compared to $1.6 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  This increase is primarily due to higher share price.

For fiscal year 2010, unallocated corporate expenses are expected to increase over fiscal year 2009 due to higher share-based compensation, investments in information technology, and international expansion.  Unallocated corporate expenses, including share-based compensation, are expected to be in the range of $85 million to $90 million in fiscal year 2010.

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 2010 third quarter was $28.3 million.  Fiscal 2009 third quarter interest expense was $31.1 million and included $2.5 million of non-cash interest credit for the marked-to-market change in fair value for certain interest rate swap transactions.  The Company accounted for these transactions on a marked-to-market basis, whereby changes in the fair value increased or decreased net interest expense, and therefore affected reported net earnings and earnings per share.  These interest rate swap agreements with a notional amount of $350 million did not qualify for hedge accounting treatment and expired on November 24, 2009.

Provision for Income Taxes:  Income taxes were $23.2 million for the fiscal 2010 third quarter versus $19.7 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  The effective tax rate in the fiscal 2010 third quarter was 36.1% versus 38.5% in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  In fiscal year 2010, the Company expects its effective tax rate to be approximately 38.0%.

Net Earnings and Diluted Net Earnings Per Share (EPS)(2): Net earnings(1) in the fiscal 2010 third quarter were $41.1 million; growth of 30.6% over GAAP net earnings of $31.5 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter and growth of 37.1% over adjusted net earnings of $30.0 million in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.  Diluted earnings per share (1) in the fiscal 2010 third quarter were $0.22; growth of 29.4% over GAAP diluted earnings per share of $0.17 and growth of 37.5% over adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.16 in the fiscal 2009 third quarter.

Adjusted (Non-GAAP) EBITDA (2):  Adjusted EBITDA for the fiscal 2010 third quarter was $107.8 million, an increase of 12.9% from $95.5 million for the fiscal 2009 third quarter.

(2)A detailed table reconciling 2010 and 2009 GAAP net earnings to adjusted net earnings, adjusted EPS and adjusted EBITDA is included in Supplemental Schedule C.
