ST. LOUIS–(BUSINESS WIRE<\/a>)–
\nBuild-A-Bear Workshop, Inc. (NYSE: BBW) today reported results for its fiscal 2023 first quarter, the 13-week period ended April 29, 2023.<\/p>\n\nSharon Price John, Build-A-Bear Workshop President and Chief Executive Officer commented, \u201cFollowing our record-breaking performance in fiscal 2022, where we posted the highest annual profit in our company\u2019s 25-year history, we are pleased to be on track for another record-breaking year, reporting our best-ever first quarter EPS.

With the growth opportunities we see ahead, we look to a promising future for our business and remain committed to continuing to increase value for our shareholders.\u201d<\/p>\n
\nFirst Quarter 2023 Results (13 weeks ended April 29, 2023 compared to the 13 weeks ended April 30, 2022):<\/b><\/p>\n
- \n
- \nTotal revenues were $120.1 million, an increase of $2.4 million, including the negative impact of $1.3 million of currency exchange, as compared to $117.7 million in the fiscal 2022 first quarter;<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nNet retail sales were $112.1 million compared to $112.9 million in the fiscal 2022 first quarter. This decline reflects the $1.3 million negative impact from currency exchange and included growth from sales in corporately-managed retail locations offset by a decline in consolidated e-commerce demand (orders generated online to be fulfilled from either the Company\u2019s warehouse or its stores);<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nCommercial and international franchise revenues rose 66.7% to $8.0 million compared to $4.8 million in the fiscal 2022 first quarter;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/li>\n
- \nGross profit margin was 54.1% compared to 52.5% in the fiscal 2022 first quarter. The 160-basis point expansion in gross profit margin was driven by lower freight costs, as expected, and leverage of distribution costs, as compared to the fiscal 2022 first quarter;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nSelling, general and administrative (\u201cSG&A\u201d) expenses were $45.6 million, or 38.0% of total revenues, compared to $43.6 million, or 37.0% of total revenues in the fiscal 2022 first quarter. The $2.0 million increase in SG&A as compared to the fiscal 2022 first quarter was driven by strategic investment in talent and marketing to support future growth and to a lesser extent, inflation in store labor costs;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nPre-tax income was $19.4 million, or 16.2% of total revenues compared to pre-tax income of $18.2 million, or 15.5% of total revenues in the fiscal 2022 first quarter;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nIncome tax expense was $4.7 million with an effective tax rate of 24.5% compared to $4.0 million with an effective tax rate of 22.0% in the fiscal 2022 first quarter;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nNet income was $14.6 million, or $0.98 per diluted share, compared to net income of $14.2 million, or $0.89 per diluted share, in the fiscal 2022 first quarter; and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nEarnings Before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (\u201cEBITDA\u201d) was $22.4 million, an increase $0.9 million compared to $21.5 million in the fiscal 2022 first quarter.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
Store Activity:<\/b><\/p>\n
\nAs of April 29, 2023, the Company had 482 global locations through a combination of its corporately-managed, third-party retail and international franchise models. This reflects 349 corporately-managed stores with one net closure in the fiscal 2023 first quarter compared to the beginning of the fiscal year.<\/p>\n
\nThrough the Company\u2019s third-party retail business model there were 70 locations at the end of the 2023 first quarter with relationships that include Carnival Cruise Lines, Great Wolf Lodge Resorts, Landry\u2019s, and Beaches Family Resorts, unchanged from the beginning of the fiscal year.<\/p>\n
\n\nThe Company\u2019s international franchisees operated 63 locations at the end of the fiscal 2023 first quarter reflecting four net closures compared to the beginning of the fiscal year.<\/p>\n
Balance Sheet:<\/b><\/p>\n
\nAs of April 29, 2023, cash and cash equivalents totaled $32.8 million compared to $26.1 million as of April 30, 2022. Inventory at quarter end was $66.5 million reflecting a decline of $10.9 million, or 14.1%, from April 30, 2022. The Company remains comfortable with the level and composition of its inventory. The Company finished the quarter with no borrowings under its revolving credit facility.<\/p>\n

\nFiscal year-to-date, the Company returned $28.6 million to shareholders, reflecting dividend payments of $22.1 million and share repurchases of $6.5 million.<\/p>\n
\nIn the fiscal 2023 first quarter, capital expenditures totaled $3.1 million compared to $1.1 million in the fiscal 2022 first quarter. The increase in capital expenditures primarily reflected investment in information technology and store expansion.<\/p>\n
2023 Outlook:<\/b><\/p>\n
\nThe Company is reaffirming its fiscal 2023 outlook with expectations of delivering growth in total revenues and pre-tax income compared to fiscal 2022. While the Company notes that its fiscal 2023 is a 53-week year compared to a 52-week year in fiscal 2022, it expects to deliver growth in total revenues and pre-tax income versus the prior year exclusive of the projected benefit of the 53rd week. For reference, the additional week in fiscal 2023, which will be reflected in the Company\u2019s fourth quarter, is estimated to be $7 million in total revenues with approximately 35% flow-through to EBITDA.<\/p>\n
\nFor fiscal 2023, the Company continues to expect:<\/p>\n
- \n
- \nTotal revenues to increase in the range of 5% to 7% compared to fiscal 2022 with growth in its three operating segments;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nPre-tax income growth of 10% to 15% compared to fiscal 2022, surpassing the record high that the Company achieved in fiscal 2022;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nTo open 20 to 30 experience locations, through a combination of third-party retail and corporately-managed business models, with the majority planned for the second half of the year;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nCapital expenditures in the range of $15 million to $20 million;<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nDepreciation and amortization of approximately $13 million to $14 million; and<\/p>\n<\/li>\n
- \nTax rate to approximate 25% excluding discrete items.<\/p>\n<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n
\nThe Company\u2019s guidance considers a variety of factors ranging from anticipated ongoing inflationary pressures to the expected benefit of reduced freight costs. Additionally, the Company noted that its outlook assumes no further material changes in the operations of its supply chain including the ability to receive and ship product on a timely basis, the macro-economic and geo-political environment, or relevant foreign currency exchange rates.<\/p>\n
\nNote Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures:<\/b><\/p>\n
\nIn this press release, the Company\u2019s financial results are provided both in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) and using certain non-GAAP financial measures. In particular, the Company provides historic income adjusted to exclude certain costs, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These results are included as a complement to results provided in accordance with GAAP because management believes these non-GAAP financial measures help identify underlying trends in the Company\u2019s business and provide useful information to both management and investors by excluding certain items that may not be indicative of the Company\u2019s core operating results. These measures should not be considered a substitute for or superior to GAAP results. These non-GAAP financial measures are defined and reconciled to the most comparable GAAP measure later in this document.<\/p>\n
