SEARS HOMETOWN AND OUTLET STORES, INC. | |
By: | /s/ CHARLES J. HANSEN |
Charles J. Hansen | |
Vice President, General Counsel, and Secretary |
• | Net loss decreased $6.4 million to $4.5 million from $10.9 million |
• | Loss per share decreased $0.28 to $0.20 loss per share from $0.48 loss per share |
• | Comparable store sales decreased 0.2% |
• | Adjusted EBITDA increased $3.6 million to $7.4 million from $3.8 million |
• | Changes to our as-is appliance sourcing as well as lower promotional markdowns led to margin improvement of 620 basis points in our Outlet segment. Additionally, the Outlet segment has had positive comparable store sales each month since July when we anniversaried the impact of the change in our pricing strategy. Due to the ongoing improvement in our Outlet business, we opened two new Outlet stores through the third quarter. |
• | In the third quarter 2018 lease-to-own comparable sales increased 41.1% and leasing's share of total sales increased to 9.4%, up 281 basis points compared to the third quarter 2017. |
• | We opened two additional Buddy's Home Furnishings stores, bringing total openings to eight since January 2018. We opened all of these rent-to-own stores as a franchisee, enabling us to benefit from Buddy's extensive expertise and systems infrastructure in this business in which we own the inventory that we rent to our customers. Buddy's Home Furnishings is the third largest rent-to-own operator in the United States with over 330 locations nationwide. |
• | SearsHometown.com and SearsOutlet.com sales were up 115% and 47%, respectively, compared to third quarter 2017. SearsHometown.com balance of sales grew nearly 200 basis points compared to the third quarter 2017. SearsOutlet.com balance of sales grew nearly 300 basis points compared to the third quarter 2017. |
• | Commercial sales increased 26.4% compared to third quarter 2017. Our margin on commercial sales increased 28.4% as the margin rate improved by 28 basis points compared to third quarter 2017. Nearly 64% of stores are participating in this program in 2018, versus less than 47% last year. |
• | In the third quarter we completed the planned sale of our Newington, CT property, which generated proceeds of $2.8 million, net of closing costs and we recorded a gain on sale of approximately $1.3 million during the third quarter of fiscal 2018. |
• | In the fourth quarter we intend to make further progress on our store portfolio-optimization initiative by closing, or seeking the closure by dealers of, 80 to 100 stores in our Hometown segment. We have inventory investments in these stores of $28.0 million to $35.0 million and anticipate using proceeds from the liquidation of this inventory to pay down borrowings under our Senior ABL Facility. We believe these store closings will result in a one-time charge of between $4.5 million and $6.0 million in the fourth quarter, but will advance our efforts to reduce the growing losses in our Hometown segment and strengthen our balance sheet. A group of stores in our Hometown segment continue to provide an insufficient return for the capital we have invested in these stores and these stores, as a group, continue to generate negative adjusted EBITDA. Despite our efforts to improve the performance of these unproductive stores through our business-improvement initiatives, these stores have not achieved the level of progress that many of our more profitable stores have achieved. We will continue to actively seek to work with the dealers operating these unproductive stores to exit the business should they determine that is also in their best interests. Underlying these unproductive Hometown segment stores is a base of more productive locations that are achieving significantly higher average store sales and adjusted EBITDA. |
• | Hometown segment comparable store sales decreased 3.4% in the third quarter of 2018. The lawn and garden category outperformed the average comparable store sales, posting positive comparable store sales for the quarter. Tools outperformed the average, and the home appliances and mattress categories underperformed the average. |
• | Outlet segment comparable store sales increased 5.7% in the third quarter of 2018. The home appliances, tools, mattress, and furniture categories outperformed the average comparable store sales. The lawn and garden category underperformed the average. |
• | Hometown gross margin decreased $9.8 million, or 17.1%, to $47.6 million in the third quarter of 2018. Hometown gross margin rate improved by 30 basis points to 22.4%. The decline in gross margin dollars was driven by sales volume decreases. The increase in gross margin rate was primarily driven by reduced store closing costs, shrink favorability and lower occupancy costs. These increases were mostly offset by a reduction in gross margin on merchandise sales due to lower shared merchandise subsidies and cash discounts collected by Sears Holdings. The impact of closing store costs, shrink, and occupancy costs on the gross margin rate was a 44 basis points increase in the third quarter of 2018 compared to a 258 basis points decrease in the third quarter of 2017. |
• | Outlet gross margin increased $8.0 million, or 27.3%, to $37.2 million in the third quarter of 2018. Outlet gross margin rate improved by 620 basis points to 29.4% driven by higher margins on merchandise sales and lower occupancy costs. |
• | Hometown adjusted EBITDA decreased $5.1 million to a $4.4 million loss in the third quarter of 2018 from $0.8 million in the third quarter of 2017. The decrease was driven by lower volume related to closed stores, partially offset by a higher gross margin rate and lower selling and administrative expenses. |
• | Outlet adjusted EBITDA increased $8.7 million in the third quarter of 2018 to $11.8 million from $3.0 million in the third quarter of 2017. The improvement was driven by an improved gross margin rate on higher volume and lower selling and administrative expenses. |
• | EBITDA excludes the effects of financing and investing activities by eliminating the effects of interest and depreciation and amortization costs; and |
• | Other significant items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and may have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results. These items may also include cash charges such as severance and IT transformation investments that make it difficult for investors to assess the Company's core operating performance. |

• | The effects of the voluntary petitions of Sears Holdings and many of its subsidiaries seeking relief under Chapter 11 of the Bankruptcy Code (the “Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings”), and the effects of actions taken, or not taken, in the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings, including the effects of the imposition of the “automatic stay” and the effects if Sears Holdings were to seek to reject one or more of the SHO-Sears Holdings Agreements (the Company believes that if Sears Holdings were to liquidate on a basis other than as a going concern the likelihood that Sears Holdings would seek to reject some or all of the SHO-Sears Holdings Agreements would increase); |
• | The willingness and ability of Sears Holdings, as a consequence of the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings, to fulfill its contractual obligations to us especially if Sears Holdings's possible bankruptcy liquidation other than on a going-concern basis were to occur; |
• | As a result of the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings, and especially if Sears Holdings's possible bankruptcy liquidation other than on a going-concern basis were to occur, (1) the Senior ABL Facility provides for significant lender discretion, such as the ability to reduce loan advance-rates (through the imposition of reserves against the Company’s borrowing base), which could reduce the amounts that the Company could borrow or require the Company to repay amounts already borrowed, (2) the lenders could assert that they have no obligation to extend to the Company additional loans on the basis that the Company has suffered a “Material Adverse Effect,” and (3) Sears Holdings’s rejection or termination of the specified "Separation Agreements" (which term is defined in the Senior ABL Facility to include specified SHO-Sears Holdings Agreements) would be an “Event of Default” under the Senior ABL Facility that would permit the lenders to accelerate and immediately call due all of the Company's outstanding loans; |
• | As a result of the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings, and especially if Sears Holdings's possible bankruptcy liquidation were to occur other than on a going-concern basis, (1) the Term Loan Agreement provides for significant lender discretion, such as the ability to increase reserves with respect to the Term Loan Agreement's borrowing base, which could require the establishment and maintenance of a reserve under, and thereby reduce the amounts that the Company could borrow under, the Senior ABL Facility, and could also require the Company to make a prepayment under the Term Loan Agreement, and (2) Sears Holdings’s rejection or termination of the Separation Agreements would be an “Event of Default” under the Term Loan Agreement that would permit the lender to accelerate and immediately call due the Company's outstanding loan under the Term Loan Agreement; |
• | The Official Committee of Unsecured Creditors appointed in the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings is investigating transfers to ESL Investments, Inc. and its investment affiliates (which, based on publicly available information, together beneficially own 58.8% of our outstanding shares of common stock), among others, in connection with “Insider Transactions,” including the Separation, and the Restructuring Subcommittee of the Sears Holdings Board of Directors is investigating “Prepetition Related-Party Transactions,” including the Separation; |
• | Termination of the SHO-Sears Holdings Agreements (following rejection in the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings or other termination) could require us to, among other things, find different service and product providers, possibly on short notice and even if we are able to find replacement products and services, these products and services may not be of the same type or quality as those which are currently provided by Sears Holdings; |
• | If we are forced to enter into new contracts for replacement products and services, the new contracts may have terms and conditions that are less favorable to us than those to which we are currently bound, and different products and services, especially if lower in quality and value, and potential increased costs from less favorable contract terms could materially and adversely affect our ability to do business and our financial performance; |
• | The possible perceptions of our vendors, suppliers, lenders under the Senior ABL Facility and the Term Loan Agreement, and customers that, as a result of the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings and especially if Sears Holdings possible bankruptcy liquidation were to occur other than on a going-concern basis, the Company's ability to operate its businesses (especially the Company's Hometown segment businesses) has been materially and adversely affected; |
• | Our Amended and Restated Merchandising Agreement with Sears Holdings, pursuant to which we have rights to acquire merchandise branded with the Kenmore, Craftsman, and DIEHARD® marks (which marks are owned by, or licensed to, subsidiaries of Sears Holdings, together the "KCD Marks"), could be assumed by Sears Holdings in the Sears Holdings Bankruptcy Proceedings and assigned to one or more third parties that could decline to extend or renew, or upon renewal or extension materially modify to our material disadvantage, our rights under the Amended and Restated Merchandising Agreement; |
• | The Amended and Restated Merchandising Agreement provides that (1) if a third party that is not an affiliate of Sears Holdings acquires the rights to one or more (but less than all) of the KCD Marks Sears Holdings may terminate our rights to buy merchandise branded with any of the acquired KCD Marks and (2) if a third party that is not an affiliate of Sears Holdings acquires the rights to all of the KCD Marks Sears Holdings may terminate the Amended and Restated Merchandising Agreement in its entirety, over which events we have no control; |
• | The sale by Sears Holdings and its subsidiaries to other retailers that compete with us on major home appliances and other products branded with one of the KCD Marks; |
• | Our ability to offer merchandise and services that our customers want, including those under the KCD Marks; |
• | Sears Holdings announced that it would explore alternatives for its Kenmore, Craftsman, and Diehard businesses and further expand the presence of these brands and that it was continuing to explore alternatives for these businesses by evaluating potential partnerships or other transactions; |
• | Sears Holdings completed its sale to Stanley Black & Decker, Inc. of Sears Holdings's Craftsman business, including the Craftsman brand name and related intellectual property rights; |
• | The sale of Kenmore and Diehard products on Amazon.com; |
• | Our ability to successfully manage our inventory levels and implement initiatives to improve inventory management and other capabilities; |
• | The fact that our past performance generally, as reflected on our historical financial statements, may not be indicative of our future performance as a result of, among other things, our continuing reliance on Sears Holdings for most products and services that are important to the successful operation of our business, and our potential need to rely on Sears Holdings for some products and services beyond the expiration, or earlier termination by Sears Holdings, of our agreements with Sears Holdings; |
• | Competitive conditions in the retail industry; |
• | Worldwide economic conditions and business uncertainty, the availability of consumer and commercial credit, changes in consumer confidence, tastes, preferences and spending, and changes in vendor relationships; |
• | The willingness of Sears Holdings’s appliance, lawn and garden, tools, and other vendors to continue to supply to Sears Holdings on terms (including vendor-payment terms for Sears Holdings’s merchandise purchases) that are acceptable to it (which vendor-payment terms, we believe, are becoming, and in the future could continue to become, increasingly uneconomic for Sears Holdings) and to us; |
• | The willingness of Sears Holdings’s appliance, lawn and garden, tools, and other vendors to continue to pay to Sears Holdings merchandise-related subsidies and allowances and cash discounts (Sears Holdings is obligated to pay to a portion of these subsidies and allowances to us, and the amounts required to be paid to us declined significantly during the first three fiscal quarters of 2018); |
• | Our ability to resolve, on commercially reasonable terms, future disputes with Sears Holdings regarding the material terms and conditions of our agreements with Sears Holdings; |
• | Our ability to establish information, merchandising, logistics, and other systems separate from Sears Holdings that would be necessary to ensure continuity of merchandise supplies and services for our businesses if, in connection with Sears Holdings’s possible bankruptcy liquidation or otherwise, vendors were to reduce, or cease, their merchandise sales to Sears Holdings or provide logistics and other services to Sears Holdings or if Sears Holdings were to reduce, or cease, its merchandise sales to us or reduce providing, or cease to provide, logistics and other services to us; |
• | If Sears Holdings’s sales of major appliances and lawn and garden merchandise to its retail customers decline Sears Holdings’s sales to us of outlet-value merchandise could decline; |
• | Our ability to maintain an effective and productive business relationship with Sears Holdings, especially if future disputes were to arise with respect to the terms and conditions of our agreements with Sears Holdings; |
• | Most of our agreements related to the Separation and our continuing relationship with Sears Holdings were negotiated while we were a subsidiary of Sears Holdings (except for amendments agreed to after the Separation), and we may have received different terms from unaffiliated third parties (including with respect to merchandise-vendor and service-provider indemnification and defense for negligence claims and claims arising out of failure to comply with contractual obligations); |
• | Our reliance on Sears Holdings to provide computer systems to process transactions with our customers (including the point-of-sale system for the stores we operate and the stores that our independent dealers and independent franchisees |

• | Our ability to implement our IT transformation by the end of the first quarter of our 2019 fiscal year in accordance with our plans, expectations, current timetable, and anticipated cost; |
• | Limitations and restrictions in the Senior ABL Facility and the Term Loan Agreement and their related agreements governing our indebtedness and our ability to service our indebtedness; |

• | Our ability to generate profitable sales of merchandise and services on our transactional ecommerce websites in the amounts we have planned to generate; |
• | Our ability to refinance the Senior ABL Facility (which will mature on the earliest of the following dates: (1) February 29, 2020; (2) six months prior to the expiration of the Separation Agreements unless they are extended to a date later than February 29, 2020 or are terminated on a basis reasonably satisfactory to the Senior ABL lenders; and (3) acceleration of the maturity date following an event of default in accordance with the Senior ABL Facility), our ability to refinance the Term Loan (which will mature on the earliest of (1) the maturity date specified in the Senior ABL Facility, (2) February 16, 2023, and (3) acceleration of the maturity date following an event of default in accordance with the Term Loan), and our ability to obtain additional financing on acceptable terms; |
• | Our dependence on the ability and willingness of our independent dealers and independent franchisees to operate their stores profitably and in a manner consistent with our concepts and standards; |
• | Our ability to significantly reduce or eliminate the Hometown segment's negative adjusted EBITDA via our efforts to close unproductive Hometown segment stores and reduce the inventory, marketing, promotion, supply chain, and other expenses associated with these stores; |
• | Our ability to sell profitably online all of our merchandise and services; |
• | Our dependence on sources outside the U.S. for significant amounts of our merchandise inventories; |
• | Fixed-asset impairment for long-lived assets; |
• | Our ability to attract, motivate, and retain key executives and other employees; |
• | Our ability to maintain effective internal controls as a publicly held company; |
• | Litigation and regulatory trends challenging various aspects of the franchisor-franchisee relationship could expand to challenge or adversely affect our relationships with our independent dealers and independent franchisees; |
