See accompanying notes to consolidated financial statements. - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Spiegel, Inc. and Subsidiaries Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements ($000s omitted, except share amounts) (unaudited) (1) Adjustments The financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary to a fair presentation of the results for the periods presented. (2) Receivables During the third quarter of 1994, the Company transferred portions of its customer receivables to a trust which, in turn, sold certificates representing undivided interests in the trust to investors. Certificates sold were $150,000. This transaction increased other revenue by $10,658 in the third quarter. The company owns the remaining undivided interest in the trust not represented by the certificates and will continue to service all receivables for the trust. (3) Change in Accounting Periods In 1994, the company modified its quarterly and annual reporting from calendar periods to a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to December 31. Accordingly, results for the third quarter and year-to-date 1994 periods include 13 and 39 weeks, respectively, and are referred to as the three and nine months periods ended October 1, 1994. Results for 1993 are reported on a calendar basis. (4) Accounting Changes Postemployment Benefits The Company adopted SFAS No. 112, Employers' Accounting for Postemployment Benefits, in the second quarter of 1994. The effect on the financial statements was immaterial and, therefore, was not separately disclosed. Investments in Debt and Equity Securities The Company adopted the provisions of Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 115, Accounting for Certain Investments in Debt and Equity Securities, which requires the classification of debt and equity securities into one of three categories; held to maturity, trading securities or available-for-sale. The Company's debt securities are short-term in nature and are recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as cash equivalents and other assets. These securities are being held-to-maturity and thus, there is no financial statement impact to adopting SFAS No. 115. (5) Stockholders' Equity In January, the underwriters excercised their option to purchase an additional 400,000 shares of Class A non-voting common stock as part of the secondary offering of common stock completed in December 1993. Accordingly, common stock was increased $400 representing the par value of the shares and additional paid-in capital was increased by $6,494 for the difference between the proceeds from the issuance and the par value. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (000's omitted except per share amounts) Results of Operations Three Months Ended October 1, 1994 Compared With Three Months Ended September 30, 1993 Net sales for the three months ended October 1, 1994, increased 17% to $565,806 compared to $485,366 for the three months ended September 30, 1993. This increase is the result of continued growth at Spiegel and Eddie Bauer mainly in retail sales as well as the incremental sales from the acquisition of New Hampton, which was completed in August 1993. Eddie Bauer experienced a comparable store sales increase of 5%. Spiegel continued to see sales strength in home related merchandise. Finance revenues increased 18% during the quarter due to the continued increased levels of FCNB Preferred Charge card receivables. The portfolio was on average approximately $190,000 greater than the average total for the comparable period last year. This growth is due to the strong credit sales achieved and the successful introduction of credit to New Hampton's customer base. Other revenue for the third quarter of this year includes a gain of $10,658 recognized on the sale of $150,000 of Preferred Charge receivables which was completed in September 1994. The gross profit margin on net sales decreased to 32.1% for the three months ended October 1, 1994 compared to 32.3% for the comparable 1993 period. This is primarily the result of a shift in sales mix favoring home products, which carry lower margins relative to apparel. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues for the three months ended October 1, 1994 and September 30, 1993 were 36.7% and 34.5%, respectively. This increase primarily reflects the incremental advertising and circulation costs associated with the Company's continued strategy of increasing market share through aggressive new catalog customer acquisition programs. Results also reflect the incremental expenses incurred as a result of the conversion to a new common order fulfillment system and dual operating expenses associated with the start-up of and transition to a new catalog distribution facility. Eddie Bauer completed its transition to the new facility during the third quarter of 1994. Spiegel has begun initial shipments out of the facility, and is expected to complete its transition in early 1995. The company recorded a $39,000 nonrecurring charge in the third quarter of 1993 to provide for the estimated impact of closing certain of the company's existing catalog distribution facilities. These facilities are being consolidated into the new catalog distribution facility in Groveport, Ohio. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Interest expense for the three months ended October 1, 1994 increased 22% to $22,034 compared to $18,079 for the three months ended September 30, 1993. This increase is due to higher average debt levels and slightly higher overall effective interest rates. The additional debt is primarily used to finance working capital requirements including higher levels of customer accounts receivable and inventory. Nine Months Ended October 1, 1994 Compared With Nine Months Ended September 30, 1993 Net sales for the nine months ended October 1, 1994 increased 24% to $1,715,179 compared to $1,378,529 for the nine months ended September 30, 1993. This increase was the result of the continued growth in both catalog and retail divisions of Spiegel and Eddie Bauer and to the incremental sales from the acquisition of New Hampton, which was completed in August 1993. Eddie Bauer comparable store sales increased 10%. Spiegel sales in the home areas and certain categories of women's apparel were strong. Finance revenues increased 21% during the nine month period ended October 1, 1994 as compared to the same period of 1993 due to a larger FCNB Preferred Charge card receivable portfolio throughout the 1994 period as compared to 1993. Higher levels of Preferred Charge net sales and the successful introduction of credit to New Hampton's customer base helped drive this increase. Other revenue includes a gain of $10,658 recognized on the sale of $150,000 of Preferred Card receivables which was completed in September 1994. The gross profit margin on net sales increased to 33.2% for the nine months ended October 1, 1994 compared to 31.2% for the comparable 1993 period. Continued inventory cost control efforts, the Company's expanding private- label merchandise programs, and the incremental higher gross margin on New Hampton sales all contributed to this improvement. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues were 36.6% for the nine months ended October 1, 1994 and 34.4% for the comparable period in 1993. As discussed above, this increase is driven primarily by additional advertising and circulation costs associated with new catalog and credit card customer acquisition programs. Included in the nine months operating results was a $39,000 nonrecurring charge recorded in the third quarter of 1993 to provide for the impact of closing certain of the Company's existing catalog distribution facilities. The increase of 12.3% in interest expense for the nine months ended October 1, 1994 as compared to the nine months ended September 30, 1993 is driven by higher debt levels throughout the year. The additional debt is primarily used to finance working capital requirements including higher levels of customer accounts receivable and inventory. - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- - ----------------------------------------------------------------------------- Seasonality and Quarterly Fluctuations: The Company, like other retailers, has experienced and expects to continue to experience seasonal fluctuations in its merchandise sales and net income. Historically, a disproportionate amount of the Company's net sales and a majority of its net earnings have been realized during the fourth quarter. Accordingly, the results for the individual quarters are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the entire year. Liquidity and Capital Resources: The Company has historically met its operating and cash requirements through funds generated from operations, the issuance of debt and the sale of customer accounts receivable. Total customer receivables sold were $480,000 and $330,000 at October 1, 1994 and December 31, 1993, respectively. Net cash used in operating activities was $182,321 and $125,374 for the nine month periods ended October 1, 1994 and September 30, 1993, respectively. The net increase in cash requirements is the result of several factors including higher inventory and customer receivable balances in the nine months ended October 1, 1994 compared to the same period last year. Also, payments on other working capital items such as income taxes represented significant uses of cash. The net cash proceeds from the sale of $150,000 of accounts receivable were reported as operating cash flows in the nine months ended October 1, 1994. In August 1993, the Company acquired substantially all of the assets of New Hampton, Inc. through a bankruptcy proceeding for approximately $40,000 in cash. Net additions to property and equipment for the nine months ended October 1, 1994 were $58,142 consisting primarily of capital spending related to the new catalog distribution facility constructed in Groveport, OH and to the Eddie Bauer retail division's ongoing store additions and remodels in process. During the nine month period ended October 1, 1994, $3,100 of expenditures have been made relating to the $39,000 nonrecurring charge taken in 1993. The Company expects more of these costs will be paid in 1994 with the remaining costs paid out in 1995, except for the write-off of property and equipment of $6,500, which is a noncash item. The Company believes that its cash on hand, together with cash flows anticipated to be generated from operations, borrowings under its existing credit facilities and other available sources of credit, will be adequate to fund the Company's capital and operating requirements for the foreseeable future, including expenditures related to distribution facilities and new store openings. - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- - --------------------------------------------------------------------------- SIGNATURE Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned thereunto duly authorized.
