GAAP EPS of $1.47 in the fourth quarter and $4.52 for full-year 2012
· Targets full-year 2012 adjusted earnings per share of $4.76 and GAAP earnings per share of $4.52 both exceeded the expected range provided at the beginning of the year.
· In 2012, U.S. Retail Segment EBIT grew 5.3 percent on 5.1 percent sales growth.
· The U.S. Credit Card Segment experienced a full-year 2012 spread to LIBOR of 9.1 percent, significantly better than expectations one year ago.

MINNEAPOLIS (February 27, 2013) Target Corporation (NYSE: TGT) today reported fourth quarter net earnings of $961 million, or $1.47 per share, and full-year net earnings of $2,999 million, or $4.52 per share. Adjusted earnings per share, a measure the Company believes is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of its U.S. operations, were $1.65 in fourth quarter 2012, up 10.1 percent from $1.49 in 2011. Full-year adjusted earnings per share were $4.76, up 7.9 percent from $4.41 in 2011.

Were pleased with Targets fourth quarter performance, particularly in the face of a highly promotional retail environment and continued consumer uncertainty, said Gregg Steinhafel, chairman, president, and chief executive officer of Target Corporation. Outstanding discipline and execution by our team allowed us to achieve our full-year financial and strategic goals in 2012. We believe these results position us well to deliver on significant plans in 2013, including completion of the largest store opening program in our companys history with 124 stores in Canada and additional Target and CityTarget locations in the U.S., investing in new processes and technology that will improve our guests multichannel experience and closing the sale of our credit card receivables.
Fiscal 2013 Earnings Guidance
For fiscal 2013, the Company expects adjusted EPS of $4.85 to $5.05 and GAAP EPS of $4.70 to $4.90. The difference between the adjusted and GAAP EPS ranges reflects expected EPS dilution related to our Canadian Segment of approximately (45) cents, partially offset by expected one-time accounting impacts of approximately 30 cents associated with the sale of Targets entire consumer credit card receivables portfolio to TD Bank Group, which the Company now expects to close in first quarter 2013.
In first quarter 2013, the Company expects adjusted EPS of $1.10 to $1.20 and GAAP EPS of $1.22 to $1.32. The difference between the adjusted and GAAP EPS ranges reflects expected EPS dilution related to our Canadian Segment of approximately (23) cents, more-than-offset by expected one-time accounting impacts of approximately 35 cents associated with the sale of Targets entire consumer credit card receivables portfolio to TD Bank Group.
U.S. Retail Segment Results
As previously reported, sales increased 6.8 percent to $22.4 billion in fourth quarter 2012 from $20.9 billion last year, reflecting a 0.4 percent increase in comparable-store sales combined with the contribution from new stores and one additional accounting week(1). Segment earnings before interest expense and income taxes (EBIT) were $1,677 million in the fourth quarter of 2012, an increase of 3.2 percent from $1,625 million in 2011.
Fourth quarter EBITDA and EBIT margin rates were 9.8 percent and 7.5 percent, respectively, compared with 10.3 percent and 7.8 percent in 2011. Fourth quarter gross margin rate declined to 27.8 percent in 2012 from 28.4 percent in 2011, reflecting the impact of the Companys integrated growth strategies combined with the impact of markdowns on seasonal merchandise. Fourth quarter selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense rate was 18.0 percent in 2012, compared with 18.1 percent in 2011.
Full-year 2012 sales increased 5.1 percent to $72.0 billion from $68.5 billion in 2011, reflecting a 2.7 percent increase in comparable-store sales combined with the contribution from new stores and one additional accounting week(1). Full-year segment EBIT was $5,019 million in 2012, an increase of 5.3 percent from $4,765 million in 2011.
Full-year 2012 EBITDA and EBIT margin rates were 9.8 percent and 7.0 percent, respectively, compared with 10.0 percent and 7.0 percent in 2011. Full-year gross margin rate was 29.7 percent in 2012, compared with 30.1 percent in 2011, reflecting the impact of the Companys integrated growth strategies. Full-year SG&A expense rate was 19.9 percent in 2012, compared with 20.1 percent in 2011.
(1)The three- and twelve-month periods ended February 2, 2013 were 14- and 53-week periods, respectively, compared with 13- and 52-week periods in 2011. The extra week has been excluded from the comparable-store sales calculation.
U.S. Credit Card Segment Results(2)
Fourth quarter average receivables decreased 4.6 percent to $6.1 billion in 2012 from $6.4 billion in 2011. Fourth quarter 2012 portfolio spread to LIBOR was $141 million, or 8.5 percent, compared with $111 million, or 6.9 percent, in 2011. Performance in fourth quarter 2012 reflected a $10 million reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts, compared with a $1 million reduction in fourth quarter 2011.
Average receivables for the full year decreased 5.1 percent to $6.0 billion in 2012 from $6.3 billion in 2011. Fiscal year 2012 portfolio spread to LIBOR was $555 million, or 9.1 percent, compared with $663 million, or 10.5 percent, in 2011. Fiscal year performance reflected a $95 million reduction in the allowance for doubtful accounts, compared with a $260 million reduction in 2011.
(2)The Company intends to continue reporting a U.S. Credit Card Segment until the credit card receivables transaction with TD Bank Group closes in 2013. The segment results will continue to be reported on the same basis as historical results.
Canadian Segment Results
Fourth quarter and full-year 2012 EBIT was $(148) million and $(369) million, respectively, due to start-up expenses, depreciation and amortization related to the Companys expected market entry in 2013. Total expenses related to investments in Targets Canadian market entry reduced Targets earnings per share by approximately 18 cents in fourth quarter 2012 and 48 cents in fiscal 2012(3).
(3)This amount includes interest expense and tax expense that are not included in the segment measure of profit. A reconciliation of non-GAAP measures is included in the tables attached to this release.
Interest Expense and Taxes
Net interest expense for the fourth quarter was $204 million, compared with $292 million in fourth quarter 2011. Full-year interest expense was $762 million in 2012, compared with $866 million in 2011. Decreases in fourth quarter and full-year interest expense were due primarily to an $87 million charge related to the early retirement of debt in fourth quarter 2011.
The Companys effective income tax rate was 34.3 percent in the fourth quarter and 34.9 percent for the full year 2012. The full-year 2012 effective income tax rate includes the favorable resolution of various income tax matters that benefited EPS by approximately 9 cents. In 2011, the favorable resolution of various income tax matters increased fourth quarter EPS by approximately 10 cents and increased full-year EPS by approximately 12 cents.
Capital Returned to Shareholders
In fourth quarter 2012, the Company repurchased approximately 10.4 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $61.96 for a total investment of $645 million. The Company also paid dividends of $234 million during the quarter.
For the full year, the Company repurchased approximately 32.2 million shares of its common stock at an average price of $58.96 for a total investment of $1.90 billion, and paid dividends of $869 million. Shares acquired in fiscal 2012 represent 4.8 percent of shares outstanding at the beginning of the fiscal year.
Accounting Considerations
As a result of Targets agreement to sell its entire consumer credit card receivables portfolio to TD Bank Group, GAAP earnings reflect fourth quarter and full-year pre-tax gains of $5 million and $161 million, respectively. These gains are related to the accounting treatment of the consumer credit card receivables as held for sale assets.
Miscellaneous
Target Corporation will webcast its fourth quarter earnings conference call at 9:30 a.m. CST today. Investors and the media are invited to listen to the call through the Companys website at www.target.com/investors (click on events & presentations). A telephone replay of the call will be available beginning at approximately 11:30 a.m. CST today through the end of business on March 1, 2013. The replay number is (855) 859-2056 (passcode: 78426370).
Statements in this release regarding full year and first quarter 2013 earnings guidance, the closing of the credit card receivables transaction and timing thereof, the deployment of proceeds and the transactions expected impact on earnings performance are forward-looking statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Such statements speak only as of the date they are made and are subject to risks and uncertainties which could cause the Companys actual results to differ materially. The most important risks and uncertainties include: (i) the risk that the credit card receivables transaction may not close or may not close on the expected timeline, and (ii) the risks described in Item 1A of the Companys Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 28, 2012 and Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended July 28, 2012.
In addition to the GAAP results provided in this release, the Company provides adjusted diluted earnings per share for the three and twelve months ended February 2, 2013 and January 28, 2012, respectively. This measure is not in accordance with, or an alternative for, generally accepted accounting principles in the United States. The most comparable GAAP measure is diluted earnings per share. Management believes adjusted EPS is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of the Companys U.S. operations. Adjusted EPS should not be considered in isolation or as a substitution for analysis of the Companys results as reported under GAAP. Other companies may calculate adjusted EPS differently than the company does, limiting the usefulness of the measure for comparisons with other companies.

(a) We continue to recognize an allowance for doubtful accounts and bad debt expense within our U.S. Credit Card Segment, which allows us to evaluate the performance of the portfolio. The allowance for doubtful accounts is eliminated in consolidation to present the receivables at the lower of cost (par) or fair value. Period-end credit card receivables, at par, less the segment allowance at the beginning of the three months ended February 2, 2013, when the receivables were first classified as held for sale, plus the gain on receivables held for sale of $161 million for the twelve months ended February 2, 2013 represents credit card receivables, held for sale as reported on the Consolidated Statements of Financial Position.
(b) Write-offs include the principal amount of losses (excluding accrued and unpaid finance charges), and recoveries include current period collections on previously written-off balances. These amounts combined represent net write-offs.

Note: Our segment measure of profit is used by management to evaluate the return on our investment and to make operating decisions. To provide additional transparency, we have disclosed non-GAAP adjusted diluted earnings per share, which excludes the impact of our planned 2013 Canadian market entry, the adjustment related to receivables held for sale, favorable resolution of various income tax matters and the loss on early retirement of debt. We believe this information is useful in providing period-to-period comparisons of the results of our U.S. operations. The sum of the non-GAAP adjustments may not equal the total adjustment amounts due to rounding.
Note: The three and twelve months ended February 2, 2013 consisted of 14 weeks and 53 weeks, respectively, compared with 13 weeks and 52 weeks in the comparable prior-year periods.
(a) Represents interest expense, net of interest income, not included in U.S. Credit Card segment profit. For the three and twelve months ended February 2, 2013, U.S. Credit Card segment profit included $3 million and $13 million of interest expense on nonrecourse debt collateralized by credit card receivables, respectively, compared with $17 million and $72 million in the respective prior year periods. These amounts, along with other net interest expense, equal consolidated GAAP net interest expense.
(b) Represents the gain on receivables held for sale recorded in our Consolidated Statements of Operations, plus the difference between U.S. Credit Card Segment bad debt expense and net write-offs for the three months ended February 2, 2013.
(c) Taxes are allocated to our business segments based on income tax rates applicable to the operations of the segment for the period.
(d) For the three and twelve months ended February 2, 2013, average diluted shares outstanding were 655.8 million and 663.3 million, respectively. For the three and twelve months ended January 28, 2012, average diluted shares outstanding were 675.0 million and 683.9 million, respectively.
(e) Represents the effect of the resolution of income tax matters. The results for the three and twelve months ended February 2, 2013 also include a $(2) million and $55 million tax provision/(benefit) for the adjustment related to receivables held for sale, respectively, while the results for the three and twelve months ended January 28, 2012 include the tax effect of the loss on early retirement of debt of $32 million in both periods.
(f) Represents the loss on early retirement of debt.
