EX-99.1 2 g98510exv99w1.txt EX-99.1 PRESS RELEASE DATED NOVEMBER 22, 2005 EXHIBIT 99.1 FINANCIAL CONTACT: JAMES S. GULMI (615) 367-8325 MEDIA CONTACT: CLAIRE S. MCCALL (615) 367-8283 GENESCO REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS --DILUTED EARNINGS PER SHARE BEFORE DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS INCREASE 27% TO $0.62-- --RAISES FISCAL 2006 GUIDANCE-- NASHVILLE, Tenn., Nov. 22, 2005 -- Genesco Inc. (NYSE: GCO) today reported earnings before discontinued operations of $16.2 million, or $0.62 per diluted share, for the third quarter ended October 29, 2005. This compares with earnings before discontinued operations of $12.4 million, or $0.49 per diluted share, for the third quarter last year. Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2006 increased 10% to $316 million compared to $288 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2005. Genesco's third quarter earnings reflect a pre-tax gain of $0.9 million, or approximately $0.02 per diluted share, associated with the conclusion of the settlement of a California employment class action more favorably than originally anticipated offset by a pre-tax expense of $0.6 million, or approximately $0.01 per diluted share, related to uninsured property damage from the hurricanes during the quarter. Genesco Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Hal N. Pennington, said, "Our third quarter performance, which once again exceeded expectations, was driven primarily by same store sales gains and gross margin expansion. These results were particularly gratifying given the external challenges we faced during the quarter -- including hurricanes and rising gasoline prices -- and some difficult internal comparisons against the previous year. "Net sales at Journeys rose 11% to approximately $153 million, and both same store sales and footwear unit comps increased 5% for the quarter. The Journeys business was strong across the board. In December, Journeys will open its 700th store, an important milestone that reflects the vibrancy and national appeal of the brand. In addition to seeking further growth in its mall-based store count, Journeys' growth plans include opening additional stores in major city street locations following a successful opening on 34th Street in Manhattan, as well as testing other non-mall venues. Additionally, the continuing strength of the Journeys Kidz business has led us to accelerate our store opening plans for that concept for next year to more than double this year's level. "Net sales at Hat World increased 15% to $68 million and same store sales were up 1%, which was in line with expectations, and on top of a 12% comp increase a year ago. Despite the tough comparisons to the robust demand generated by last year's World Series, the Major League Baseball business was on plan, and the NFL, NBA and NHL products all performed well. Hat World remains on track to open about 96 new stores this year, up from 55 last year, and we expect it will have approximately 642 stores in operation at the end of fiscal 2006. "Net sales for the Underground Station Group, which includes Jarman, increased 12% to $38 million and comparable store sales rose 9%. Comparable store sales at Jarman declined 5%. Underground Station registered another strong same store sales result, accelerating to a 13% comp increase, following a 12% gain in the second quarter and an 11% increase in the first quarter. Underground Station again expanded its operating margin in the quarter by 300 basis points to 5.1%, driven by better gross margins and improved expense leverage. "Johnston & Murphy's net sales were up 2% for the quarter to $39 million, same store sales for Johnston & Murphy shops increased 6%, and footwear unit comps rose 7%. As anticipated, Johnston & Murphy's earnings declined modestly, primarily due to increased investment in brand advertising. Johnston & Murphy continued to experience growth in casual and dress casual footwear and registered solid gains in its accessory business as well. "Sales of Dockers Footwear were $17 million compared to $18 million for the same period a year ago. The Stain Defender and Pro Style product has continued to perform strongly and the early response to its Spring 2006 offering is good." Genesco also stated that it is revising its fiscal 2006 guidance upward. The Company now expects sales for the year to be approximately $1.28 billion and earnings per share to range from $2.34 to $2.35, including the previously announced charge of approximately $0.04 per share associated with the settlement of a class action lawsuit (adjusted for its more favorable than expected conclusion, as discussed above.) Pennington concluded, "As we look toward the holiday selling season, we feel good about our product assortment, brand positioning and forward momentum. We remain focused on improving our platform for growth and driving increased shareholder value into the future." 2 This release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding the Company's sales and earnings outlook and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences, including the ability to open, staff and support additional retail stores on schedule and at acceptable expense levels, and to renew leases in existing stores on schedule and at acceptable expense levels, weakness in consumer demand for products sold by the Company, fashion trends that affect the sales or product margins of the Company's retail product offerings, changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period to period sales comparisons, changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers, disruptions in product availability or distribution, unfavorable trends in foreign exchange rates and other factors affecting the cost of products, changes in business strategies by the Company's competitors (including pricing and promotional discounts), variations from expected pension-related charges caused by conditions in the financial markets, and the outcome of litigation and environmental matters involving the Company. Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements.
