NEW YORK, New York – September 3, 2015 – Vince Holding Corp. (NYSE: VNCE), a leading contemporary fashion brand (“Vince” or the “Company”), today reported unaudited results for the second quarter of fiscal 2015.
In this press release, the Company is presenting its financial results in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) as well as on an “adjusted” basis. Adjusted results presented in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures. See “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for more information about the Company’s use of non-GAAP financial measures and Exhibits 3 through 6 to this press release for a reconciliation of actual GAAP results to such adjusted results.
For the second quarter ended August 1, 2015:
|
· |
Net sales decreased 10.4% to $80.0 million from $89.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The wholesale segment decreased 21.6% to $58.3 million and the direct-to-consumer segment increased 44.7% to $21.7 million over the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Comparable store sales increased 13.4%, including e-commerce sales. |
|
· |
Gross profit was $20.8 million, or 26.0% of net sales, which includes a $14.4 million charge associated with the write-down of excess inventory and aged product to expected net realizable value. Excluding the inventory write-down, gross profit was $35.2 million, or 44.0% of net sales. This compares to gross profit of $44.0 million, or 49.3% of net sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. |
|
· |
Selling, general, and administrative expenses were $27.3 million or 34.2% of sales. This included $2.9 million of net management transition costs related to executive severance and related costs. Excluding these costs, selling, general and administrative costs were $24.5 million or 30.6% of net sales in the quarter. In the second quarter of fiscal 2014, selling, general and administrative costs were $24.1 million or 27.0% of sales, which included costs related to the Company’s July 2014 secondary offering. Excluding the Secondary Offering costs, selling, general and administrative expenses were $23.5 million, or 26.3% as a percent of sales in the second quarter of fiscal 2014. |
|
· |
Operating loss was $(6.5) million, compared to operating income of $19.9 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Excluding the inventory write-down and net management transition costs, operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $10.8 million. Excluding the Secondary Offering costs, operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $20.5 million. |
|
· |
Net loss was $(5.0) million, or $(0.14) per diluted share, compared to net income of $10.5 million, or $0.27 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2014. Excluding the inventory write-down and net management transition costs, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $5.2 million, or $0.14 per diluted share. Excluding the Secondary Offering costs, net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2014 was $10.8 million, or $0.28 per diluted share. |
1
|
· |
During the second quarter of 2015, the Company opened one new store, ending the quarter with 42 company-operated stores. |
Mark Brody, Interim Chief Executive Officer of Vince, commented, “Our second quarter financial performance reflects further weakness in sales trends in our wholesale channel with lower than expected sell-through and customer reorders, which in turn led to a significant increase in inventory levels. As a result, we elected to write down current year product to estimated net realizable value. In addition, our off-price customers reported high levels of inventory. In order for us to move forward with our strategy to reduce sales to off-price retailers and to enhance our brand positioning, we made the decision to dispose of the vast majority of prior year product.
“Based on our recent performance and outlook for continued weakness in the wholesale channel, particularly in the off-price business, and a recent softening in the direct-to-consumer channel, we are reducing our guidance for Fiscal 2015. While our recent performance was disappointing, we are taking corrective actions to protect and enhance the strength of the Vince brand. Looking ahead, we are focused foremost on making exceptional products with the styles and fits that align with our customers’ expectations. We are also taking steps to enhance our product assortment and improve operational performance, including tighter inventory and procurement practices which will also help lead to a more carefully managed distribution in the off-price channel. At the same time, we will continue to move forward with our multiple growth strategies including growing our direct to consumer business through both store openings and expansion of the e-commerce channel and expanding our international presence in existing and new markets.”
Balance Sheet
The Company’s debt increased by $1.8 million to $84.8 million during the second quarter of fiscal 2015, with $12.5 million of voluntary payments on its Term Loan Facility being financed by borrowings on its Revolving Credit Facility. The Company had availability under its Revolving Credit Facility of $27.9 million as of August 1, 2015. In addition, the Company has negotiated the extension of an estimated $22.8 million payment plus accrued interest that was due in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 under the Tax Receivable Agreement with an affiliate of Sun Capital Partners, Inc., to September 15, 2016.
Inventory at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2015 was $45.6 million versus $58.6 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2014. The year-over-year inventory decline was driven primarily by the increase in inventory reserves. Partially offsetting the additional reserves were increases from the 11 new store openings since the end of the second quarter of last year and new handbag inventory.
Capital expenditures for the second quarter of fiscal 2015 totaled $4.8 million, $2.4 million of which was primarily attributable to new stores and shop-in-shop build-outs.
Updated 2015 Outlook
The following updated 2015 guidance is adjusted to exclude charges associated with the write-down of excess inventory and aged product to expected net realizable value and the net management transition costs related to executive severance and related costs as reported in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. The guidance also excludes potential additional costs related to the ongoing management transition.
For fiscal 2015, the Company now expects:
|
· |
Total net sales of $285 million to $295 million. The reduced sales expectation is primarily the result of the aforementioned issues in the domestic wholesale segment, largely in the off-price channel, as well as the recent softer selling trends in the Company’s direct-to-consumer channel. Additionally, this incorporates sales from the opening of 11 new retail stores and comparable sales growth, inclusive of e-commerce sales, in the mid-single digit range. |
2
|
· |
Adjusted selling, general, and administrative expenses to increase by $13 million to $15 million, as compared to last year, or by 945 to 990 basis points as a percent of sales over the adjusted fiscal 2014 rate of 28.2%, attributable primarily to growth in the Company’s retail channel from new store openings. This excludes the impact of ongoing net executive transition costs of approximately $3.9 million in the current year (including the $2.9 million incurred in the second quarter) and $0.6 million for secondary offering costs incurred in prior year. |
|
· |
Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.31 to $0.37 excluding the above adjustments net of tax. |
|
· |
Spend $18 million to $20 million in capital expenditures, consistent with prior guidance. |
Management Changes
As previously announced, Jill Granoff, Chief Executive Officer, resigned from the Company, remaining CEO through a transition period to ensure an orderly and effective change in leadership. The Company today announced that the transition period ended effective September 1st, and on that date Mark Brody assumed the position of Interim Chief Executive Officer. Subsequently, David Stefko assumed the role of Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, a position previously held by Mark Brody.
Mr. Stefko has 28 years of senior finance and executive management experience and until being named Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer, held the position of Group CFO at Sun Capital Partners. Prior to joining Sun Capital, he served as SVP, CFO & CAO of Things Remembered, a national multichannel specialty retailer.
The Board of Directors has engaged and are actively working with executive search firms to fill the roles of Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer.
Marc Leder, Chairman of Vince, commented, “We are pleased that Mark and David have stepped into their respective roles as we search for a permanent CEO and CFO to lead the company going forward. While this search is ongoing, I continue to be laser focused on enhancing the brand for the long-term, and am working closely with Mark, David, and the entire Vince team to improve our performance in the wholesale channel, and continued inventory management.”
Option Exchange and Employee Stock Purchase Plan Amendment
In an effort to promote retention at the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors and the majority stockholders have approved a one-time stock option exchange program to permit the Company to cancel certain stock options held by some of its employees and executive officers in exchange for new, or replacement, options. None of the executive officers, who have departed from their positions at the Company in the recent months, including Jill Granoff, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, as well as the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer will be eligible to participate in the option exchange. The Company expects to commence the exchange offer and file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or around September 3, 2015. In addition, the Company’s board of directors approved an amendment to the Company’s 2013 Employee Stock Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”) to allow the issuance of shares of common stock under the ESPP at a discount of 10% to the market price of such shares at the end of the offer period. The Company’s majority stockholders approved the option exchange and the amendment to ESPP by written consent.
The Company’s stockholders and option holders will be able to obtain the written materials relating to the exchange offer and the amendment to ESPP and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC free of charge from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on the Company’s website at investors.vince.com.

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided, with respect to financial results relating to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2015, as well as guidance for fiscal 2015, adjusted cost of products sold, adjusted gross margin, adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted provision for taxes, adjusted income before taxes, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share and related shares outstanding, which are non-GAAP financial measures, in order to eliminate the effect on operating results of the inventory write-down and management transition costs. The Company has also provided, with respect to financial results relating to the second quarter and first half of fiscal 2014, adjusted selling, general and administrative expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted provision for taxes, adjusted net income and adjusted earnings per share, which are non-GAAP financial measures, in order to eliminate the effect on operating results the costs related to the Secondary Offering. The Company believes that the presentation of adjusted results facilitates an understanding of the Company’s continuing operations without the non-recurring impact associated with the inventory write-down and management transition costs as well as the Secondary Offering costs, and on a go forward basis, consistent with its fiscal 2015 guidance. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in Exhibits 3 through 6 to this press release.

Excerpt from a press release, dated September 3, 2015, issued by Vince Holding Corp.:
Option Exchange and Employee Stock Purchase Plan Amendment
In an effort to promote retention at the Company, the Company’s Board of Directors and the majority stockholders have approved a one-time stock option exchange program to permit the Company to cancel certain stock options held by some of its employees and executive officers in exchange for new, or replacement, options. None of the executive officers, who have departed from their positions at the Company in the recent months, including Jill Granoff, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer, as well as the Company’s Interim Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer and Treasurer will be eligible to participate in the option exchange. The Company expects to commence the exchange offer and file a Tender Offer Statement on Schedule TO with the Securities Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) on or around September 3, 2015.
[…….]
The Company’s stockholders and option holders will be able to obtain the written materials relating to the exchange offer […..] and other documents filed by the Company with the SEC free of charge from the SEC’s website at www.sec.gov or on the Company’s website at investors.vince.com.
