Deckers Brands Reports First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Financial Results
GOLETA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--July 27, 2017--Deckers Brands (NYSE: DECK), a global leader in designing, marketing and distributing innovative footwear, apparel and accessories, today announced financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended June 30, 2017.
Throughout this release, references to Non-GAAP financial measures exclude the impact of certain restructuring and other charges. Additional information regarding these Non-GAAP financial measures is set forth under the heading "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below.
“Our first quarter results reflect solid consumer demand for our spring product offering across our brands combined with earlier than planned shipments of certain fall orders,” commented Dave Powers, President and Chief Executive Officer. “While it is still early in the year, we are encouraged by our recent top-line performance. Looking ahead, we believe the product, marketing and distribution strategies we’ve implemented across our brand portfolio, along with the anticipated benefits from our cost savings initiatives, have us well positioned to achieve the operating profit improvement targets we established for fiscal 2018 and longer-term.”
First Quarter Fiscal 2018 Financial Review
Brand Summary
Channel Summary (included in the brand sales numbers above)
Geographic Summary (included in the brand and channel sales numbers above)
Balance Sheet
At June 30, 2017, cash and cash equivalents were $279.9 million compared to $291.8 million at March 31, 2017. The Company had no outstanding borrowings under its credit facility at June 30, 2017 compared to $110.6 million at June 30, 2016.
Company-wide inventories at June 30, 2017 decreased 5.9% to $441.6 million from $469.2 million at June 30, 2016, and was largely the result of higher than expected sales in the first quarter combined with improved inventory management.
Full Year Fiscal 2018 Outlook for the Twelve Month Period Ending March 31, 2018
The following outlook for fiscal year 2018 remains unchanged from the previously issued guidance in May 2017:
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
We present certain Non-GAAP financial measures in this press release, including constant currency, Non-GAAP SG&A expenses, Non-GAAP operating income and Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share, to provide information that may assist investors in understanding our financial results and assessing our prospects for future performance. We believe these Non-GAAP financial measures are important indicators of our operating performance because they exclude items that are unrelated to, and may not be indicative of, our core operating results, such as restructuring charges relating to retail store closures and office consolidations, and other charges relating to inventory write-downs, severance and asset impairments. In particular, we believe that the exclusion of certain costs and charges allows for a more meaningful comparison of our results from period to period. These Non-GAAP measures, as we calculate them, may not necessarily be comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies and may not be appropriate measures for comparing the performance of other companies relative to Deckers. For example, in order to calculate our constant currency information, we calculate the current period financial information using the foreign currency exchange rates that were in effect during the previous comparable period, excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate hedges and re-measurements in the condensed consolidated balance sheets. These Non-GAAP financial results are not intended to represent, and should not be considered to be more meaningful measures than, or alternatives to, measures of operating performance as determined in accordance with GAAP. To the extent we utilize such Non-GAAP financial measures in the future, we expect to calculate them using a consistent method from period to period. A reconciliation of each of the financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures has been provided under the heading “Reconciliation of GAAP Financial Measures to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” in the financial statement tables included below.
