Organization and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies |
Nature of Operations
Macy's, Inc., together with its subsidiaries (the "Company"), is an omnichannel retail organization operating stores, websites and mobile applications under three brands (Macy's, Bloomingdale's and bluemercury) that sell a wide range of merchandise, including apparel and accessories (men's, women's and kids'), cosmetics, home furnishings and other consumer goods. The Company has stores in
Bloomingdale's in Dubai, United Arab Emirates and Al Zahra, Kuwait are operated under a license agreement with Al Tayer Insignia, a company of Al Tayer Group, LLC.
A description of the Company's significant accounting policies is included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 30, 2021 (the "2020 10-K"). The accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto in the 2020 10-K.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Such estimates and assumptions are subject to inherent uncertainties, including the ultimate financial impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, which may result in actual amounts differing from reported amounts.
The Consolidated Financial Statements for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, in the opinion of management, include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly, in all material respects, the consolidated financial position and results of operations of the Company.
Seasonality
Because of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the full fiscal year.
Comprehensive Income (Loss)
Total comprehensive income (loss) represents the change in equity during a period from sources other than transactions with shareholders and, as such, includes net income (loss). For the Company, the only other components of total comprehensive income (loss) for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020 relate to post employment and postretirement plan items. Settlement charges incurred are included as a separate component of income (loss) before income taxes in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. Amortization reclassifications out of accumulated other comprehensive loss are included in the computation of net periodic benefit cost (income) and are included in benefit plan income, net on the Consolidated Statements of Operations. See Note 6, "Benefit Plans," for further information.
COVID-19 Pandemic
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues through fiscal 2021, the Company continues to prioritize health and safety measures in its stores and facilities to protect the well-being of its customers and colleagues while also focusing on prudent cash management, maintaining strong liquidity and executing its strategic initiatives. Although the Company has experienced strong recovery in operating results during fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020, the Company continues to monitor the impacts of COVID-19 on the macro economy as well as on the Company’s and its vendor partners’ operations. The full impact of the pandemic will continue to depend on future developments, including the continued spread and duration of the pandemic, the emergence of future variant strains of COVID-19, the availability and distribution of effective medical treatments or vaccines as well as any related federal, state or local governmental orders, restrictions or mandates. In addition, numerous uncertainties continue to surround the pandemic and its ultimate impact on the Company, including the timing and extent of any recovery in consumer traffic and spending, potential delays, interruptions and disruptions in the Company’s supply chain, maintenance of temporary government stimulus programs, labor shortages and intense competition for talent, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

As further disclosed in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K, on March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law, which permitted, among other benefits, the carryback of certain net operating losses. Based on the Company’s 2020 fiscal results and 2020 U.S. federal tax return, an approximate $

Revenue |
Net sales
Revenue is recognized when customers obtain control of goods and services promised by the Company. The amount of revenue recognized is based on the amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received in exchange for those respective goods and services. The Company's revenue generating activities include the following:
Retail Sales
Retail sales include merchandise sales, inclusive of delivery income, licensed department income, sales of private brand goods directly to third party retailers and sales of excess inventory to third parties. Sales of merchandise are recorded at the time of shipment to the customer and are reported net of estimated merchandise returns and certain customer incentives. Commissions earned on sales generated by licensed departments are included as a component of total net sales and are recognized as revenue at the time merchandise is sold to customers. Service revenues (e.g., alteration and cosmetic services) are recorded at the time the customer receives the benefit of the service. The Company has elected to present sales taxes on a net basis and, as such, sales taxes are included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities until remitted to the taxing authorities.

Merchandise Returns
The Company estimates merchandise returns using historical data and recognizes an allowance that reduces net sales and cost of sales. The liability for merchandise returns is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and was $
Gift Cards and Customer Loyalty Programs
The Company only offers no-fee, non-expiring gift cards to its customers. At the time gift cards are sold or issued, no revenue is recognized; rather, the Company records an accrued liability to customers. The liability is relieved and revenue is recognized equal to the amount redeemed at the time gift cards are redeemed for merchandise. The Company records revenue from unredeemed gift cards (breakage) in net sales on a pro-rata basis over the time period gift cards are actually redeemed. At least three years of historical data, updated annually, is used to determine actual redemption patterns.
The Company maintains customer loyalty programs in which customers earn points based on their purchases. Under the Macy’s Star Rewards loyalty program, points are earned based on customers’ spending on Macy’s private label and co-branded credit cards as well as non-proprietary cards and other forms of tender. The Company’s Bloomingdale’s Loyallist and bluemercury BlueRewards programs provide tender neutral points-based programs to their customers. The Company recognizes the estimated net amount of the rewards that will be earned and redeemed as a reduction to net sales at the time of the initial transaction and as tender when the points are subsequently redeemed by a customer.
The liability for unredeemed gift cards and customer loyalty programs is included in accounts payable and accrued liabilities on the Company's Consolidated Balance Sheets and was $
Credit Card Revenues, net
In 2005, the Company entered into an arrangement with Citibank, N.A. ("Citibank") to sell the Company's private label and co-branded credit cards ("Credit Card Program"). Subsequent to this initial arrangement and associated amendments, in 2014, the Company entered into an amended and restated Credit Card Program Agreement (the "Program Agreement") with Citibank. As part of the Program Agreement, the Company receives payments for providing a combination of interrelated services and intellectual property to Citibank in support of the underlying Credit Card Program. Revenue based on the spending activity of the underlying accounts is recognized as the respective card purchases occur and the Company’s profit share is recognized based on the performance of the underlying portfolio. Revenue associated with the establishment of new credit accounts and assisting in the receipt of payments for existing accounts is recognized as such activities occur. Credit card revenues include finance charges, late fees and other revenue generated by the Company’s Credit Card Program, net of fraud losses and expenses associated with establishing new accounts.
Under the terms of the Program Agreement, if sales decrease by more than

Benefit Plans |
The Company has defined contribution plans that cover substantially all colleagues who work

MACY'S, INC.
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Continued)
(Unaudited)
In February 2013, the Company announced changes to the Pension Plan and SERP whereby eligible colleagues no longer earn future pension service credits after December 31, 2013, with limited exceptions. All retirement benefits attributable to service in subsequent periods are provided through defined contribution plans.
In addition, certain retired colleagues currently are provided with specified health care and life insurance benefits ("Postretirement Obligations").

Other financial instruments not measured at fair value on a recurring basis include cash and cash equivalents, receivables, certain short-term investments and other assets, short-term debt, merchandise accounts payable, accounts payable and accrued liabilities and long-term debt. With the exception of long-term debt, the carrying amount of these financial instruments approximates fair value because of the short maturity of these instruments. The fair values of long-term debt, excluding capitalized leases, are generally estimated based on quoted market prices for identical or similar instruments, and are classified as Level 2 measurements within the hierarchy as defined by applicable accounting standards.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations |
For purposes of the following discussion, all references to "third quarter of 2021" and "third quarter of 2020" are to the Company's 13-week fiscal periods ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively. References to "2021"and "2020" are to the Company’s 39-week fiscal periods ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively.
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and the related notes included elsewhere in this report, as well as the financial and other information included in the 2020 10-K. The following discussion contains forward-looking statements that reflect the Company's plans, estimates and beliefs. The Company's actual results could materially differ from those discussed in these forward-looking statements. Factors that could cause or contribute to those differences include, but are not limited to, those discussed below and elsewhere in this report (particularly in "Risk Factors" and in "Forward-Looking Statements") and in the 2020 10-K (particularly in "Risk Factors" and in "Forward-Looking Statements"). This discussion includes Non-GAAP financial measures. For information about these measures, see the disclosure under the caption "Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures".
COVID-19 Update
As the COVID-19 pandemic continues through fiscal 2021, the Company continues to prioritize health and safety measures in its stores and facilities to protect the well-being of its customers and colleagues, while also focusing on prudent cash management, maintaining strong liquidity and executing its strategic initiatives. The Company continuously monitors the ongoing impacts of COVID-19, including the outbreaks of any variant strains, as well as the evolving federal, state and local ordinances and health guidelines related to the mitigation of transmission risk associated with the pandemic. The Company has taken, and continues to take, numerous steps to promote health and safety at its stores and facilities, including following federal, state and local guidelines regarding the use of masks, supporting vaccination efforts, maintaining increased safety equipment in stores, offering contactless shopping opportunities, providing company-supplied personal protection equipment and wellness checks for colleagues, continuing enhanced cleaning throughout our various locations and continuing to offer remote work plans for certain colleagues. Modifications to work environment policies could impact the use of certain corporate assets, and as such could lead to additional long-lived tangible and right of use corporate asset impairment.
Under the terms of the Program Agreement, if sales decrease by more than 34% over a twelve-month period as compared to the Benchmark Year, defined as the twelve-month period from July 2006 to June 2007 in the Program Agreement, Citibank has the ability to provide written notice to terminate the agreement prior to the end of its current term. Based on the results for the Company’s February 2021 fiscal period, sales for the twelve-month period ended February 27, 2021 decreased by more than 34% as compared to the Benchmark Year. On June 4, 2021, the Company received a written notice of termination of the Program Agreement from Citibank. Upon receipt of the written notice of termination, the Company has six months to exercise, or not exercise, an option to purchase the assets of the Program Agreement, or nominate a third party to purchase such assets, and a subsequent six month period to complete such transfer, subject to potential extensions as more fully described in the Program Agreement. The Company and Citibank are required to continue to meet their respective obligations and provide support pursuant to the terms of the Program Agreement through this period. The Company estimates that these events will not have an impact on the financial results of the Credit Card Program in fiscal 2021. The Company is evaluating options for its Credit Card Program including potential transfer to another financial service entity or modified arrangement with Citibank and is in the final stages of a decision. Based on current estimates, the Company does not expect the forthcoming changes to the Credit Card Program’s financial structure to be materially different from its current terms.
Although the Company has experienced strong recovery in operating results during fiscal 2021 as compared to fiscal 2020, the Company continues to monitor the impact of COVID-19 on the macro economy as well as on the Company’s and its vendor partners’ operations. The full impact of the pandemic will continue to depend on future developments, including the continued spread and duration of the pandemic, the emergence of future variant strains of COVID-19, the availability and distribution of effective medical treatments or vaccines as well as any related federal, state or local governmental orders or restrictions, or mandates. In addition, numerous uncertainties continue to surround the pandemic and its ultimate impact on the Company, including the timing and extent of any recovery in consumer traffic and spending, potential delays, interruptions and disruptions in the Company’s supply chain, maintenance of temporary government stimulus programs, labor shortages and intense competition for talent, all of which are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Further discussion of the risks and uncertainties posed by the COVID-19 pandemic are disclosed in “Risk Factors” under Part I Item 1A of the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.

MACY'S, INC.
Quarterly Overview
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company continued to build on the momentum of the first half of 2021 and exceeded its expectations from both a sales and profit standpoint. The profitable third quarter results were driven by strong consumer behavior, disciplined cost and inventory management, and the continued execution of the Company’s Polaris strategy.
In evaluating the performance of the third quarter of 2021, the Company considered its results against the third quarter of 2020 as well as the third quarter of 2019 given the impact of the pandemic and the closure of the Company’s stores during the first, second and third quarters of 2020. Certain financial highlights are as follows:
|
|
• |
Comparable sales were up 37.2% on an owned basis; and up 35.6% on an owned plus licensed basis compared to the third quarter of 2020. Compared to the third quarter of 2019, comparable sales were up 8.9% on an owned basis and up 8.7% on an owned plus licensed basis. On a comparable owned plus licensed basis, the third quarter of 2021 benefitted by approximately 200 bps from the shift of a Friends and Family promotional event into the quarter from the fourth quarter, compared to the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
Digital sales increased 19% versus the third quarter of 2020 and grew 49% versus the third quarter of 2019. Digital penetration was at 33% of net sales for the third quarter of 2021, a 5-percentage point decline from the third quarter of 2020 but a 10-percentage point increase over the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
Gross margin was 41.0%, compared to 35.6% in the third quarter of 2020, representing an improvement of approximately 540 basis points. Compared to the third quarter of 2019, gross margin increased 100 basis points. |
|
|
• |
Net credit card revenues were $213 million, up $18 million from the third quarter of 2020, and up $30 million from the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
Selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expense was $1.97 billion, up $247 million from the third quarter of 2020. Compared to the third quarter of 2019, SG&A expense was down $229 million. SG&A expense as a percent of sales was 36.3%, down from 43.3% in the third quarter of 2020 and 630 basis points lower than the third quarter of 2019 rate of 42.6%. |
|
|
• |
Net income was $239 million and 4.4% of net sales in the third quarter of 2021, compared to a net loss of $91 million and (2.3)% of net sales in the third quarter of 2020 and net income of $2 million and 0.04% of net sales in the third quarter of 2019. Net income adjusted for impairment, restructuring and other costs, settlement charges and losses on early retirement of debt, improved from a loss of $60 million in the third quarter of 2020 to adjusted net income of $386 million for the third quarter of 2021. This compares to adjusted net income of $21 million in the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
The third quarter of 2021 had positive earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") of $757 million compared to EBITDA of $113 million during the third quarter of 2020. EBITDA was $300 million for the third quarter of 2019. On an adjusted basis, EBITDA was $765 million, or 14.1% of net sales, compared to $159 million, or 4.0% of net sales, and $325 million, or 6.3% of net sales for the third quarters of 2021, 2020, and 2019, respectively. |
|
|
• |
Diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.76 and $1.23, respectively, during the third quarter of 2021. This compares to a diluted loss per share and adjusted diluted loss per share of $0.29 and $0.19, respectively, for the third quarter of 2020, and diluted earnings per share and adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.01 and $0.07 for the third quarter of 2019, respectively. |
|
|
• |
Inventory was up 19.4% from the third quarter of 2020 and down 15.4% from the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company repaid early approximately $1.6 billion of debt, reinstated its regular quarterly dividend and paid $46 million in cash dividends, and repurchased 13,043,200 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $23.02 per share for a total cost of approximately $300 million, which accounts for 60% of the $500 million share repurchase program authorized by the Company’s Board of Directors during the quarter. |
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company continued to execute its Polaris strategy and these actions impacted its operating results for the period, notably:
|
|
• |
Win With Fashion and Style: By offering a wide assortment of categories, products and brands from off-price to luxury, the Company was able to reach a broad and diverse range of customers during the third quarter. In merchandise, strengths continued in pandemic-driven products such as home, fragrance, jewelry, watches and sleepwear and the Company also saw |

|
|
continued recovery in occasion-based categories such as dresses, men’s tailored and luggage. The Company has added hundreds of new brands and categories over the past year and its flexibility in inventories has enabled the Company to respond to new customer demands in emerging categories. Most notably, during the third quarter the Company launched Oake, a sustainable private brand textiles brand, announced an exclusive omnichannel partnership with Toys ‘R’ Us to expand its toy business, and added Fanatics as a new brand partner to offer customers one of the largest selections of licensed sports products that significantly increases the Company’s offering of fan apparel. |
|
|
• |
Deliver Clear Value: The Company has leveraged data analytics and pricing tools to efficiently plan, place and price inventory, including location level pricing and point-of -sale (“POS”) pricing work. With these actions, the Company has lowered its volume of markdowns and improved inventory placement and assortment allocations among its distribution centers and stores. These collective activities have resulted in higher average unit retail prices and gross margin performance. In addition, inventory turn for the trailing 12 months has improved by almost 18% and has improved for the trailing 6 months by approximately 22%. |
|
|
• |
Excel in Digital Shopping: The Company continued to improve its digital offerings and launched several initiatives during the third quarter of 2021 including a refreshed mobile app, live shopping functionality, fragrance finder, 3D room planning |
expansion, a sustainability sitelet and added Venmo to in-store and PayPal to in-store and online payments. As a result of these and other investments, digital conversion for the quarter was 4.25%, up 14% compared to the third quarter of 2020 and up 27% compared to the third quarter of 2019. In addition, in November 2021, the Company announced its plan to launch a curated, digital marketplace in the second half of 2022.
|
|
• |
Enhance Store Experience: The Company continues to invest in physical stores to support its digitally-led omnichannel business model and added five off-mall, smaller format stores (Market by Macy’s, freestanding Macy’s Backstage locations, and Bloomingdale’s new off-mall, smaller store format concept, Bloomies) across Dallas, Atlanta and Washington D.C. markets during the third quarter. Although early, these new store formats saw strong sales and solid Net Promotor Scores (“NPS”). Overall, the Company is seeing ongoing trend improvement in store conversion. During the third quarter, sales in the Company’s non-downtown locations continued to sequentially improve as compared to the previous quarters of 2021. However, the slow return of international tourism and office workers continued to impact the Company’s downtown stores as their sales performance significantly lagged the Company’s other stores as compared to the third quarter of 2019. |
|
|
• |
Modernize Supply Chain: The Company has continued to update its supply chain infrastructure and network, while leveraging improved data and analytics capabilities in fulfillment strategies to meet customers' desire for speed and convenience and improving inventory placement. The Company is navigating supply chain disruptions by adjusting freight strategies, diversifying ports and working closely with international carriers and brand partners to prioritize product. |
|
|
• |
Enable Transformation: The Company has continued to modernize its technology foundations to increase agility in reacting to customers and the market regardless of the channel in which customers interact. These activities are coupled with others to build out data science and analytics capabilities with a focus on areas to provide competitive differentiation. As part of the Company’s ongoing commitment to attract and retain talent, in November 2021, the Company announced significant new investments in its colleagues’ benefit programs. These investments include launching a tuition benefit program, raising its company-wide minimum rate to $15 per hour and increasing compensation and benefits for colleagues across Macy’s Inc. |
The Company saw Platinum, Gold and Silver Star Rewards customers continue to engage with the Macy’s brand during the third quarter of 2021, with the average customer spend up 16% compared to the third quarter of 2019. The Company’s Bronze Star Rewards tier, its youngest and most diverse loyalty tier, continued to grow by adding approximately 2.3 million members during the quarter. During the third quarter of 2021, the Company acquired approximately 4.4 million new Macy’s customers, an increase of 28% compared to the third quarter of 2019. 41% of the new customers were acquired through the digital channel during the third quarter and approximately 30% were dormant customers over the last 12 months who have since re-engaged.
From a nameplate perspective, Macy’s brand comparable sales were up 36.4% on an owned basis and up 35.1% on an owned-plus-licensed basis compared to the third quarter of 2020, and up 9.0% and 8.4%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2019. Bloomingdale’s comparable sales on an owned basis were up 43.4% and on an owned-plus-licensed basis were up 38.5% compared to the third quarter of 2020, and up 9.1% and 11.2%, respectively, compared to the third quarter of 2019. Bluemercury comparable sales were up 39.5% on an owned and owned-plus licensed basis compared to the third quarter of 2020, but down 2.2% on an owned and owned-plus-licensed basis compared to the third quarter of 2019.

The Company experienced strength across nearly all of its major merchandise categories driven by continued consumer strength, growth in the Company’s digital channel and continued recovery of its stores.
Credit Card Revenues, Net
Net credit card revenues were $213 million in the third quarter of 2021, an increase of $18 million, or 9.2%, compared to $195 million recognized in the third quarter of 2020. This increase was driven by higher credit sales and the continuation of the strong credit health of the credit card portfolio's customers leading to lower levels of bad debt, partially offset by a decrease in proprietary credit card sales penetration, down approximately 200 basis points, at 43% in 2021 compared to 45% in 2020.
Gross Margin
Gross margin was 41.0% in the third quarter of 2021 compared to 35.6% in the third quarter of 2020. The increase in the gross margin rate in the third quarter of 2021 compared to the third quarter of 2020 was driven primarily by continued recovery of its stores, inventory productivity and the continued execution of the Polaris strategy, including pricing science initiatives such as location level pricing and POS promotion testing.

MACY'S, INC.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
SG&A expense for the third quarter of 2021 increased $247 million from the third quarter of 2020 but decreased as a percentage of net sales by 700 basis points. The increase in SG&A expense dollars corresponds with higher net sales but the improvement in the SG&A expense rate reflects the expense management strategies implemented by the Company in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and as part of the Polaris strategy as well as a tight labor market.
Gains on Sale of Real Estate
The third quarter of 2021 included asset sale gains of $50 million compared to $3 million in the third quarter of 2020. The third quarter of 2021 asset sale gains included approximately $33 million related to the Macy’s Baldwin Hills transaction.
Impairment, Restructuring and Other Costs
During the third quarter of 2020, the Company recognized expense of $20 million primarily related to restructuring and other costs.
Losses on Early Retirement of Debt
During the third quarter of 2021, the Company recognized $185 million of losses on early retirement of debt due to the redemption of the entire outstanding $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes.
Settlement Charges
During the third quarter of 2021 and 2020, the Company recognized non-cash settlement charges of $8 million and $26 million, respectively, related to the pro-rata recognition of net actuarial losses associated with the Company's defined benefit plans and are the result of an increase in lump sum distributions associated with retiree distribution elections and restructuring activity.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense, excluding losses on early retirement of debt, was $53 million during the third quarter of 2021, compared to $80 million during the third quarter of 2020. The decrease was primarily driven by interest savings associated with the redemption of $1,300 million of secured notes in August 2021.
Effective Tax Rate
The Company’s effective tax rate was 18.7% for the third quarter of 2021 compared to the federal income statutory tax rate of 21% driven primarily by the impact of return-to-provision adjustments that were identified in connection with the filing of the U.S. federal income tax return during the quarter resulting in an increase of the net operating loss carryback permitted under the CARES Act.
The Company’s effective tax rate of 58.1% on the pretax loss for the third quarter of 2020 reflects the impact of the carryback of net operating losses as permitted under the CARES Act.
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Diluted earnings per share were $0.76 for the third quarter of 2021 compared to a diluted loss per share of $0.29 for the third quarter of 2020, reflecting higher net income as a result of the Company’s continued recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Gross margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales. |
Net Sales
Net sales for 2021 increased $5.2 billion, or 49.5%, compared to 2020. The Company’s 2021 sales showed recovery across all three brands - Macy's, Bloomingdale's and bluemercury. Digital sales during 2021 improved 13% compared to 2020 and accounted for approximately 34% of net sales. The Company experienced strength across nearly all of its major merchandise categories driven by continued customer strength, the continued recovery of its stores as well as continued growth in its digital channel.
Credit Card Revenues, Net
Net credit card revenues were $568 million in 2021, an increase of $74 million, or 15.0%, compared to 2020. This increase was driven by higher credit sales and improvement in the credit card portfolio's delinquency rates and bad debt.
Gross Margin
Gross margin was 40.2% in 2021 compared to 26.3% in 2020. The increase in the gross margin rate in 2021 compared to 2020 was driven primarily by continued recovery of its stores, inventory productivity and the execution of the Polaris strategy. Due to the impact of COVID-19 and store closures, the first quarter of 2020 included an approximate $300 million inventory write-down from markdowns on fashion merchandise.
Selling, General and Administrative Expense
SG&A expense for 2021 increased $895 million from 2020 but decreased as a percentage of net sales by 910 basis points. The increase in SG&A expense dollars corresponds with higher net sales but the improvement in the SG&A expense rate reflects the expense management strategies implemented by the Company in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and as part of the Polaris strategy as well as a tight labor market.
21
MACY'S, INC.
Gains on Sale of Real Estate
2021 included asset sale gains of $61 million compared to $20 million in 2020. 2021 asset sale gains primarily consist of approximately $33 million related to the Macy’s Baldwin Hills transaction.
Impairment, Restructuring and Other Costs
During the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021, the Company incurred impairment, restructuring and other costs totaling $21 million, primarily related to the write-off of capitalized software assets.
During the 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020, the Company recognized expense of $3,445 million primarily as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including non-cash impairment charges totaling $3,170 million the majority of which consisted of:
|
|
• |
$3,080 million of goodwill impairments, with $2,982 million attributable to the Macy's reporting unit and $98 million attributable to the Bluemercury reporting unit. |
|
|
• |
$90 million of impairments on long-lived tangible and right of use assets to adjust the carrying value of certain store locations to their estimated fair value. |
Additionally, during the 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020, the Company recognized $196 million related to restructuring and other costs, including severance of $154 million associated with the reduction in force in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.
Settlement Charges
During 2021, the Company recognized a non-cash settlement charge of $90 million primarily driven by the transfer of fully funded pension obligations for certain retirees and beneficiaries through the purchase of a group annuity contract with an insurance company.
During 2020, the Company recognized expense of $65 million related to the pro-rata recognition of net actuarial losses associated with the Company's defined benefit plans and are the result of an increase in lump sum distributions associated with retiree distribution elections and restructuring activity.
Losses on Early Retirement of Debt
During 2021, the Company recognized $199 million of losses on early retirement of debt primarily due to the redemption of the entire outstanding $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes in the third quarter of 2021 as well as the tender offer in the first quarter of 2021.
Interest Expense, Net
Net interest expense, excluding losses on early retirement of debt and financing costs, was $211 million during 2021, compared to $196 million during 2020. The increase is primarily driven by interest paid with respect to the $1,300 million of secured notes issued in June 2020 (redeemed in August 2021).
Effective Tax Rate
The Company’s effective tax rate was 22.3% for 2021, which is slightly higher as compared to the federal income statutory tax rate of 21% driven primarily by the impact of state and local taxes, offset partly by the impact of return-to-provision adjustments that were identified in connection with the filing of the U.S. federal income tax return in the third quarter of 2021 resulting in an increase of the net operating loss carryback permitted under the CARES Act.
The Company’s effective tax rate of 19.6% on the pretax loss for 2020 reflects the impact of net operating losses as permitted under the CARES Act offset by the impact of the non-tax deductible component of the goodwill impairment charge and additional income tax expense associated with the deferred tax remeasurement recognized during the first quarter of 2020. Additionally, the effective tax rate for 2020 was favorably impacted by the settlement and expiration of certain tax matters.
Diluted Earnings (Loss) Per Share
Diluted earnings per share were $2.17 for 2021 compared to a diluted loss per share of $13.20 for 2020, reflecting higher net income as a result of the continued recovery from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. 2020 also included a goodwill impairment charge.
22
MACY'S, INC.
Cash Flow, Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company's principal sources of liquidity are cash from operations, cash on hand and the asset-based credit facility described below.
The COVID-19 outbreak and related store closure in 2020 negatively impacted the Company’s liquidity in 2020. The Company proactively took steps to increase available cash on hand including, but not limited to, targeted reductions in discretionary operating expenses and capital expenditures, suspension of the Company's quarterly dividend and executing additional financing transactions during the second quarter of 2020. During 2021, the Company has seen significant improvement in its operations and combined with its strong liquidity position as of October 30, 2021, estimates that it has sufficient cash on hand and other capital resources to cover the Company's reasonably foreseeable working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other cash requirements in both the near term and over the longer term. However, the continued uncertainty associated with the COVID-19 pandemic could have a significant impact on the Company’s cash flow and liquidity and further actions may be required to improve the Company’s cash position.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities in 2021 was $841 million compared to net cash provided by operating activities of $244 million for 2020. The increase in operating cash flows period over period is due to significant improvement in the Company’s EBITDA, offset slightly by net working capital changes, primarily driven by increases in merchandise inventories in anticipation of the 2021 Holiday shopping season.
Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities was $203 million for 2021, compared to $314 million for 2020. The decrease period over period is primarily due to an increase in proceeds resulting from asset sales during 2021 as compared to 2020 as well as the sale of certain asset backed investments.
Financing Activities
Net cash used by financing activities was $2,071 million for 2021, driven by the early redemption of approximately $1.6 billion of debt, net borrowings of approximately $140 million under the ABL Credit facility, cash dividend payments of $46 million and cash payments of $294 million associated with share repurchases during the third quarter of 2021. Net cash provided by financing activities was $963 million for 2020, driven by inflows of $2,780 million related to a $1,500 million draw on the Company’s revolving credit agreement and issuance of $1,300 million aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes, partially offset by the repayment of the $1,500 million of credit agreement draw. 2020 also included $117 million of cash dividends paid. See below for further discussion of the Company’s financing activities during 2021.
On March 17, 2021, Macy’s Retail Holdings, LLC (“MRH”), a direct, wholly owned subsidiary of Macy’s, Inc., issued $500 million in aggregate principal amount of 5.875% senior notes due 2029 (the “2029 Notes”) in a private offering (the “Notes Offering”). The 2029 Notes mature on April 1, 2029. The 2029 Notes are senior unsecured obligations of MRH and are unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Macy’s, Inc. MRH used the net proceeds from the Notes Offering, together with cash on hand, to fund the tender offer discussed below.
On March 17, 2021, the Company completed a tender offer in which $500 million of senior notes and debentures were tendered for early settlement and purchased by MRH on March 17, 2021. The purchased senior notes and debentures included $156 million of 3.875% senior notes due 2022, $136 million of 2.875% senior notes due 2023, $49 million of 4.375% senior notes due 2023, $150 million of 3.625% senior notes due 2024, $5 million of 6.65% senior debentures due 2024, and $4 million of 7.6% senior debentures due 2025. The total cash cost for the tender offer was $17 million with the remainder funded through the net proceeds from the Notes Offering discussed above. The Company recognized $11 million of losses on early retirement of debt on the Consolidated Statements of Operation during 2021.
On August 17, 2021, Macy’s Inc. redeemed the entire outstanding $1.3 billion aggregate principal amount of the 2025 Notes. The redemption price was equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2025 notes ($1.3 billion), plus accrued and unpaid interest of $19 million, plus the applicable premium due to holders of the 2025 Notes in connection with an early redemption of $138 million, plus unamortized deferred debt costs of $47 million. The total pre-tax charge of $185 million was recorded in the 13 weeks ended October 30, 2021. The Company recognized the redemption premium and unamortized deferred debt costs of $185 million as losses on early retirement of debt during the 13 weeks ending October 30, 2021.
23
MACY'S, INC.
On October 15, 2021, Macy’s Inc. redeemed the entire outstanding $294 million aggregate principal amount of the 2022 Notes. The redemption price was equal to 100% of the outstanding principal amount of the 2022 Notes ($294 million), plus accrued and unpaid interest of $3 million.
The Company is party to the ABL Credit Facility with certain financial institutions providing for a $2,941 million Revolving ABL Facility, including a swingline sub-facility and a letter of credit sub-facility. The Company may request increases in the size of the Revolving ABL Facility up to an additional aggregate principal amount of $750 million.
The ABL Credit Facility contains customary borrowing conditions including a borrowing base equal to the sum of (a) 90% of the net orderly liquidation percentage of eligible inventory, minus (b) customary reserves. Amounts borrowed under the ABL Credit Facility are subject to interest at a rate per annum equal to, at the Company’s option, either (a) adjusted LIBOR plus a margin of 2.25% to 2.50% or (b) a base rate plus a margin of 1.25% to 1.50%, in each case depending on revolving line utilization. The ABL Credit Facility also contains customary covenants that provide for, among other things, limitations on indebtedness, liens, fundamental changes, restricted payments, cash hoarding, and prepayment of certain indebtedness as well as customary representations and warranties and events of default typical for credit facilities of this type.
The ABL Credit Facility also requires (1) the Company and its restricted subsidiaries to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00 to 1.00 as of the end of any fiscal quarter on or after April 30, 2021 if (a) certain events of default have occurred and are continuing or (b) Availability plus Suppressed Availability (each as defined in the ABL Credit Facility) is less than the greater of (x) 10% of the Loan Cap (as defined in the ABL Credit Facility) and (y) $250 million, in each case, as of the end of such fiscal quarter and (2) prior to April 30, 2021, that the Company not permit Availability plus Suppressed Availability to be lower than the greater of (x) 10% of the Loan Cap and (y) $250 million. As of October 30, 2021, no such events had occurred triggering such requirement.
As of October 30, 2021, the Company had $116 million of standby letters of credit outstanding under the ABL Credit Facility, which reduces the available borrowing capacity. The borrowing capacity of the ABL Credit Facility was $2,825 million and the Company had $140 million of outstanding borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility as of October 30, 2021.
On August 19, 2021, the Company announced that it reinstated its regular quarterly dividend. The Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly dividend of $0.15 per share on the Company’s common stock, paid on October 1, 2021, to Macy’s shareholders of record at the close of business on September 15, 2021. On October 22, 2021, the Company announced that the Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.15 cents per share on its common stock, payable on January 3, 2022, to Macy’s shareholders of record at the close of business of December 15, 2021. Subsequent dividends will be subject to approval of the Board of Directors, which will depend on market and other conditions.
On August 19, 2021, the Company also announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new $500 million share repurchase program, which does not have an expiration date. As of October 30, 2021, the Company repurchased 13,043,200 shares of its common stock at an average cost of $23.02 per share for a total cost of approximately $300 million. $200 million of shares remained available for repurchase pursuant to this authorization. Repurchases may be made from time to time in the open market or through privately negotiated transactions in accordance with applicable securities laws, including Rule 10b-18 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, on terms determined by the Company.
Contractual Obligations
As of October 30, 2021, other than the financing transactions discussed above and in Note 5 to the accompanying Consolidated Financial Statements, there were no material changes to our contractual obligations and commitments outside the ordinary course of business since January 30, 2021, as reported in the Company’s 2020 Form 10-K.
24
MACY'S, INC.
Capital Resources
Management believes that, with respect to the Company's current operations, its cash on hand and funds from operations, together with the ABL Credit Facility and other capital resources, will be sufficient to cover the Company's reasonably foreseeable working capital, capital expenditure, debt service and other cash requirements in both the near term and over the longer term. The Company's ability to generate funds from operations may be affected by numerous factors, including the COVID-19 pandemic, general economic conditions and levels of consumer confidence and demand; however, the Company expects to be able to manage its working capital levels and capital expenditure amounts so as to maintain sufficient levels of liquidity. To the extent that the Company's cash balances from time to time exceed amounts that are needed to fund its immediate liquidity requirements, the Company will consider alternative uses of some or all of such excess cash. Such alternative uses may include, among others, the redemption or repurchase of debt, equity or other securities through open market purchases, privately negotiated transactions or otherwise, and payment of dividends. Depending upon its actual and anticipated sources and uses of liquidity, conditions in the capital markets and other factors, the Company will from time to time consider the issuance of debt or other securities, or other possible capital markets transactions, for the purpose of raising capital which could be used to refinance current indebtedness or for other corporate purposes.
Guarantor Summarized Financial Information
The Company had $2,795 million and $3,246 million aggregate principal amount of senior unsecured notes and senior unsecured debentures (collectively the “Unsecured Notes”) outstanding as of October 30, 2021 and January 30, 2021, respectively, with maturities ranging from 2023 to 2043. The Unsecured Notes constitute debt obligations of MRH ("Subsidiary Issuer"), a 100%-owned subsidiary of Macy's, Inc. ("Parent" and together with the "Subsidiary Issuer," the "Obligor Group"), and are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by Parent. The Unsecured Notes rank equally in right of payment with all of the Company’s existing and future senior unsecured obligations, senior to any of the Company’s future subordinated indebtedness, and are structurally subordinated to all existing and future obligations of each of the Company’s subsidiaries that do not guarantee the Unsecured Notes. Holders of the Company’s secured indebtedness, including the Notes and any borrowings under the ABL Credit Facility, will have a priority claim on the assets that secure such secured indebtedness; therefore, the Unsecured Notes and the related guarantee are effectively subordinated to all of the Subsidiary Issuer’s and Parent and their subsidiaries’ existing and future secured indebtedness to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such indebtedness.
The following tables include combined financial information of the Obligor Group. Investments in non-Guarantor subsidiaries of $6,822 million and $6,126 million as of October 30, 2021 and January 30, 2021, respectively, have been excluded from the Summarized Balance Sheets. Equity in earnings of non-Guarantor subsidiaries of $444 million and $1,403 million for the 13-weeks and 39-weeks ended October 30, 2021, respectively, have been excluded from the Summarized Statement of Operations. The combined financial information of the Obligor Group is presented on a combined basis with intercompany balances and transactions within the Obligor Group eliminated.

Outlook and Recent Developments
The COVID-19 pandemic may have a material impact on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations and cash flows from operations in future periods. The extent of the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on the Company's operational and financial performance depends on future developments outside of the Company's control, including the duration and spread of the pandemic and related actions taken by federal, state and local government officials, and international governments to prevent disease spread. On November 18, 2021, the Company disclosed, in connection with its third quarter of 2021 earnings release, its updated estimates of performance expectations for fiscal 2021, which have been revised from the performance expectations disclosed on August 19, 2021. The revisions are due to the Company’s performance for the third quarter of 2021, combined with the faster than anticipated economic recovery from the COVID-19 pandemic.

MACY'S, INC.
Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the Company's financial information with additional useful information in evaluating operating performance. Management believes that providing supplemental changes in comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis, which includes adjusting for the impact of comparable sales of departments licensed to third parties, assists in evaluating the Company's ability to generate sales growth, whether through owned businesses or departments licensed to third parties, and in evaluating the impact of changes in the manner in which certain departments are operated. Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure which the company believes provides meaningful information about its operational efficiency by excluding the impact of changes in tax law and structure, debt levels and capital investment. In addition, management believes that excluding certain items from EBITDA, net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share that are not associated with the Company’s core operations and that may vary substantially in frequency and magnitude from period-to-period provides useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating the Company's ability to generate earnings and to more readily compare these metrics between past and future periods.
The Company does not provide reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and adjusted diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because the timing and amount of excluded items are unreasonably difficult to fully and accurately estimate. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company's actual and future financial condition and performance. Additionally, the amounts received by the Company on account of sales of departments licensed to third parties are limited to commissions received on such sales. The methods used by the Company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

(1) |
Represents the period-to-period percentage change in net sales from stores in operation during the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020 and November 2, 2019, respectively. Such calculation includes all digital sales and excludes commissions from departments licensed to third parties. Stores impacted by a natural disaster or undergoing significant expansion or shrinkage remain in the comparable sales calculation unless the store, or material portion of the store, is closed for a significant period of time. No stores have been excluded as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales may differ among companies in the retail industry. |
|
|
(2) |
Represents the impact of including the sales of departments licensed to third parties occurring in stores in operation throughout the year presented and the immediately preceding year and all online sales in the calculation of comparable sales. The Company licenses third parties to operate certain departments in its stores and online and receives commissions from these third parties based on a percentage of their net sales. In its financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP, the Company includes these commissions (rather than sales of the departments licensed to third parties) in its net sales. The Company does not, however, include any amounts in respect of licensed department sales (or any commissions earned on such sales) in its comparable sales in accordance with GAAP (i.e., on an owned basis). The amounts of commissions earned on sales of departments licensed to third parties are not material to its net sales for the periods presented. |
Adjusted EBITDA as a Percent to Net Sales
The following is a tabular reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures EBITDA, as adjusted to exclude certain items (“Adjusted EBITDA”), as a percent to net sales to GAAP net income as a percent to net sales, which the Company believes to be the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure.

New Pronouncements
The Company does not expect that any recently issued accounting pronouncements will have a material effect on its consolidated financial statements.
|
Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk. |
There have been no material changes to the Company’s market risk as described in the Company's 2020 10-K. For a discussion of the Company’s exposure to market risk, refer to the Company’s market risk disclosures set forth in Part II, Item 7A, “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of the 2020 10-K.
|
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures. |
The Company's Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have carried out, as of October 30, 2021, with the participation of the Company's management, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the "Exchange Act"). Based upon this evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that as of October 30, 2021, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by the Company in reports the Company files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC") rules and forms, and that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports the Company files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
From time to time adoption of new accounting pronouncements, major organizational restructuring and realignment occurs for which the Company reviews its internal control over financial reporting. As a result of this review, there were no changes in the Company's internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the Company's most recently completed fiscal quarter that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
