Source: GlobeNewswire Inc.
Ollie’s Bargain Outlet Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ: OLLI) (the “Company”) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended October 29, 2022.
Third Quarter Summary:
Total net sales increased 9.0% to $418.1 million.
Comparable store sales increased 1.9%.
The Company opened 15 new stores and closed one store, ending the quarter with 463 stores in 29 states, a year-over-year increase in store count of 8.7%.
Operating income decreased 2.3% to $29.5 million and operating margin decreased 80 basis points to 7.1%.
Net income was $23.1 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, as compared with $23.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the prior year.
Adjusted net income(1) was $23.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, as compared with prior year adjusted net income of $22.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 4.1% to $39.5 million and adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 50 basis points to 9.4%.
John Swygert, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “During the quarter, we delivered a significant improvement in our gross profit margin rate compared to our first half performance. Our results reflect another positive comparable store sales report with a 1.9% increase over last year. While we are pleased with the underlying sales trends, we did experience a softness in sales the last two weeks of October, which impacted our overall results for the quarter.”
“Although we have seen an improvement in sales trends since October, we are operating in a highly promotional and inflationary environment. Despite these challenging times, we are going to control what we can control, staying laser focused on running a great business. We are built for this and believe we are well positioned to deliver great deals to our customers and drive long-term shareholder value,” Mr. Swygert concluded.
(1) As used throughout this release, adjusted net income, adjusted net income per diluted share, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA margin are not measures recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). Please see the accompanying financial tables which reconcile GAAP to these non-GAAP measures.
Third Quarter Results
Net sales increased 9.0% to $418.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 as compared with net sales of $383.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in net sales was the result of a comparable store sales increase of 1.9% in addition to new store unit growth.
Gross profit increased 7.9% to $164.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $152.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Gross margin decreased 40 basis points to 39.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 39.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The decrease in gross margin in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 is primarily related to increased supply chain costs and a slight decrease in the merchandise margin.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased 9.4% to $124.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $114.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021, primarily driven by an increased number of stores and higher selling costs. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A increased 20 basis points to 29.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 29.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase was primarily related to deleveraging on fixed expenses primarily due to higher selling costs, partially offset by continued tight expense controls.
Pre-opening expenses for new stores increased to $4.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $3.3 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 due to the timing of new stores. As a percentage of net sales, pre-opening expenses increased 20 basis points to 1.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 0.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Operating income decreased 2.3% to $29.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $30.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Operating margin decreased 80 basis points to 7.1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 7.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021 primarily due to the decrease in gross margin due to higher supply chain costs, a slightly lower merchandise margin, and higher selling costs as noted above.
Net income decreased 0.4% to $23.1 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with net income of $23.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted net income(1), which excludes excess tax benefits related to stock based compensation, increased 4.6% to $23.0 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $22.0 million, or $0.34 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
Adjusted EBITDA(1) increased 4.1% to $39.5 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from $37.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted EBITDA margin(1) decreased 50 basis points to 9.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 from 9.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2021. Adjusted EBITDA excludes non-cash stock-based compensation expense and gives effect to gains from insurance settlements.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights
The Company's cash and cash equivalents balance as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 was $182.1 million compared with $229.7 million as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021. The Company had no borrowings outstanding under its $100 million revolving credit facility and $92.7 million of availability under the facility as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022. The Company ended the period with total borrowings, consisting solely of finance lease obligations, of $1.5 million as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022.
Inventories as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 11.0% to $523.7 million compared with $471.8 million as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2021, with the change attributable to increased number of stores, the timing of merchandise receipts, and increased supply chain costs.
Capital expenditures in the third quarter of fiscal 2022 totaled $15.2 million compared with $11.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2021.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2022, the Company invested $20.0 million of cash to repurchase 364,320 shares of its common stock. As of the end of the third quarter, the Company had $150.0 million remaining under our share repurchase authorization.

Operating income of $66.0 million to $70.0 million; and

(2) The guidance ranges as provided for adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude the excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation as the Company cannot predict such estimates without unreasonable effort.

Supplemental Information
Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures
(Dollars in thousands)
(Unaudited)
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. We have included the non-GAAP measures of adjusted operating income, adjusted operating income margin, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA margin, adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share in this press release as these are key measures used by our management and our board of directors to evaluate our operating performance and the effectiveness of our business strategies, make budgeting decisions, and evaluate compensation decisions. Management believes it is useful to investors and analysts to evaluate these non-GAAP measures on the same basis as management uses to evaluate the Company’s operating results. We believe that excluding items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our core operating results, and that may vary in frequency or magnitude from net income and net income per diluted share, enhances the comparability of our results and provides a better baseline for analyzing trends in our business.
The tables below reconcile the most directly comparable GAAP measure to non-GAAP financial measures: operating income to adjusted operating income, net income to adjusted net income, net income per diluted share to adjusted net income per diluted share, and net income to EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA.
Adjusted net income and adjusted net income per diluted share exclude excess tax benefits related to stock-based compensation, which may not occur with the same frequency or magnitude in future periods. We define EBITDA as net income before net interest income or expense, depreciation and amortization expenses and income taxes. Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA as further adjusted for non-cash stock-based compensation expense.
Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative to 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 and cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company's actual financial condition and performance. 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.
