NEW YORK—August 21, 2024— Macy’s, Inc. (NYSE: M) today reported financial results for the second quarter of 2024 and updated its annual guidance.

“During the second quarter, we delivered strong earnings performance in a challenging consumer environment,” said Tony Spring, chairman and chief executive officer of Macy’s, Inc. “Our colleagues executed with discipline, supporting gross margin expansion and effective expense control throughout the organization. We are seeing signs of our strategy taking root, including two consecutive quarters of positive comparable sales in Macy’s First 50 locations. We are encouraged by the early traction of our Bold New Chapter and remain committed to returning Macy’s, Inc. to sustainable profitable growth.”

Second Quarter Highlights (comparisons are to the second quarter of 2023)

•Diluted earnings per share of $0.53 and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.53.

◦Compares to diluted loss per share of $(0.08) and Adjusted diluted earnings per share of $0.26 in the second quarter of 2023.

•Net sales of $4.9 billion decreased 3.8%.

•Comparable sales down 4.0% on an owned basis and down 3.3% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis.

◦Macy’s, Inc. go-forward business comparable sales, inclusive of go-forward locations and digital across nameplates, down 3.8% on an owned basis and down 3.0% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis.

•Nameplate sales highlights include:

◦Macy’s net sales down 4.4%. Comparable sales down 4.5% on an owned basis and down 3.6% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis.

•Macy’s go-forward business comparable sales, inclusive of Macy’s go-forward locations and digital, down 4.3% on an owned basis and down 3.3% on an owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace basis.

◦Go-forward locations comparable sales down 2.4% on an owned basis and down 2.3% on an owned-plus-licensed basis.

◦First 50 locations comparable sales, included within go-forward locations comparable sales, up 0.8% on an owned basis and up 1.0% on an owned-plus-licensed basis.

◦Non-First 50 go-forward locations comparable sales, included within go-forward locations comparable sales, down 3.8% on an owned basis and down 3.7% on an owned-plus-licensed basis.

◦Represented 3.2% of net sales, an increase of 30 basis points.

◦Credit card revenues, net increased $5 million to $125 million. Net credit losses were in line with our expectations. As a reminder, in the second quarter of 2023, credit card revenues were negatively impacted by a change in net credit loss trends.

◦Macy’s Media Network revenue, net rose $4 million to $34 million driven by higher advertiser and campaign counts.

•Merchandise inventories1 increased 6.0%.

◦Inventories were higher than expected due to second quarter sales results as well as the decision to invest into areas of strength for the second half of 2024.

◦The conversion to cost accounting was estimated to account for approximately half of the increase from the prior year.

◦Gross margin rate1 of 40.5% increased 240 basis points.

◦Merchandise margin increased 210 basis points driven by lower year over year discounting, favorable shortage due to the company’s asset protection work, and partially by the company’s shift to cost accounting.

◦Delivery expense as a percent of net sales improved 30 basis points driven by lower shipped sales volumes and improved delivery expense control reflecting cost savings and process re-engineering initiatives.

•Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expense of $2.0 billion decreased $7 million.

◦SG&A expense as a percent of total revenue was 38.7%, 120 basis points higher due to lower net sales.

◦SG&A expense dollars benefited from the company’s cost controls while it protected customer-facing investments, particularly in First 50 locations.

•Asset sale gains of $36 million increased $32 million due to an earlier-than-expected non-go-forward asset sale.

2024 Guidance

The company updated its annual outlook to reflect a more discriminating consumer and heightened promotional environment relative to its prior expectations. The company believes the outlook range provided gives the flexibility to address the ongoing uncertainty in the discretionary consumer market. The company is reaffirming its annual Adjusted diluted earnings per share outlook. The company continues to view 2024 as a transition and investment year, which includes investments in key customer-focused strategic initiatives. Supported by the company’s strong balance sheet, the company will continue to focus on enhancing gross margin and exercising expense control to protect profitability while navigating ongoing macro headwinds.

The full updated outlook for 2024, presented on a 52-week basis, can be found in the presentation posted to macysinc.com/investors.

	Guidance as of  August 21, 2024	Guidance as of  May 21, 2024
Net sales	$22.1 billion to $22.4 billion	$22.3 billion to $22.9 billion
Comparable owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace sales change (52 week basis)	Down ~2.0% to down ~0.5% versus 2023	Down ~1.0% to up 1.5% versus 2023
Adjusted diluted earnings per share	unchanged	$2.55 - $2.90

1: Inventories and Gross Margin are not directly comparable to the prior year given the recent conversion to cost accounting.

Adjusted diluted EPS excludes any potential impact from the credit card late fee ruling, which was stayed on May 10, 2024. Additionally, the impact of any potential future share repurchases associated with the company’s current share repurchase authorization is also excluded.

The company does not provide reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of comparable owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace sales change 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.

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-plus-marketplace basis, which includes adjusting for the impact of comparable sales of departments licensed to third parties and marketplace sales, assists in evaluating the company's ability to generate sales growth, whether through owned businesses, departments licensed to third parties or marketplace sales, and in evaluating the impact of changes in the manner in which certain departments are operated. Earnings 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 and diluted earnings 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 comparable owned-plus-licensed-plus-marketplace sales change 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 and marketplace sales 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.

Notes:

(7)Represents the period-to-period percentage change in net sales from stores in operation for one full fiscal year for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 3, 2024 and July 29, 2023. Such calculation includes all digital sales and excludes commissions from departments licensed to third parties and marketplace. 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. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales may differ among companies in the retail industry.

(8)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, including marketplace sales, in the calculation of comparable sales. Macy’s and Bloomingdale’s license third parties to operate certain departments in its stores and online and receive commissions from these third parties based on a percentage of their net sales, while Bluemercury does not participate in licensed or marketplace businesses. In its financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP, the company includes these commissions (rather than sales of the departments licensed to third parties and marketplace) in its net sales. The company does not, however, include any amounts in respect of licensed department or marketplace 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 and from the digital marketplace are not material to its net sales for the periods presented.
