PetSmart Reports Results for the Second Quarter 2007 Earnings of $0.35 per Share Comp Sales Growth of 4 Percent Board Authorizes $300 Million Stock Purchase Plan and $225 Million ASR PetSmart, Inc. (NASDAQ: PETM), today reported net income of $47.1 million, or $0.35 per diluted share, for the second fiscal quarter of 2007. That compares with net income of $34.6 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, for the second quarter of fiscal 2006. Included in the company’s second quarter 2007 results was $2.2 million, or approximately $0.01 per share, of net after tax expense to exit the State Line Tack business. The net expense included accelerated depreciation of assets and costs to remerchandise the equine sections of stores. Excluding those items, non-GAAP earnings per diluted share for the second quarter of fiscal 2007 were $0.36. The company’s earnings per diluted share exceeded expectations due to a benefit related to the renegotiation of a contract with MMI Holdings Inc., and favorable results in insurance expense based on updated actuarial estimates. Non-GAAP earnings per diluted share were $0.27 for the second quarter of 2006. “PetSmart has yet again demonstrated its resilience, our associates have shown a continued ability to execute on our list of initiatives, and the pet parent consumer is showing signs of strength,” said Phil Francis, chairman and CEO. Sales Net sales for the second quarter of 2007 were $1.1 billion, compared to $1.0 billion for the same period in 2006, and comparable store sales – or sales in stores open at least a year – grew 4.0 percent in the second quarter, on top of 4.9 percent in the same period in 2006. Excluding the State Line Tack business, comparable store sales for the core pet business for the second quarter grew 5.0 percent. Pet services sales were $117.2 million, up 19.5 percent from the second quarter last year. PetSmart opened 40 new stores, including the acquisition of stores in Canada, and closed two locations during the second quarter of 2007, which compares with 22 new stores and one closure during the second quarter of 2006. Gross margins and expense Gross margins were 31.0 percent in the second quarter of 2007, compared with 29.9 percent in the same period in 2006. Non-GAAP gross margins in the second quarter of 2006 were 30.4 percent. Operating, general and administrative expenses were 23.4 percent of net sales in the second quarter of 2007, compared with 23.8 percent in the second quarter of 2006. Excluding the net expense from exiting the State Line Tack business, operating, general and administrative expenses were 23.1 percent of net sales in the second quarter of 2007. That compares with non-GAAP operating, general and administrative expenses in the second quarter of 2006 of 23.5 percent. Dividend payments As previously announced, the company paid a dividend of $0.03 per share on August 10, 2007, to shareholders of record at the close of business on July 27, 2007. Stock Purchase Program PetSmart purchased approximately 1.9 million of its shares at an average price of $33.97 during the second quarter of 2007. At the end of the second quarter, the company had used all its $250 million authorization. The Board of Directors has authorized a new program that allows the company to purchase $300 million of stock over two years. PetSmart will use a portion of the authorization immediately to execute an accelerated share repurchase (ASR) program, with Lehman Brothers as the counterparty, for the repurchase of $225 million of common stock no later than January 2008. The exact number of repurchased shares will be determined at the conclusion of the agreement. The majority of the impact of the ASR will be included in the Company's share count by the end of September. Combined with the $89.9 million of stock purchases to date, the company will purchase nearly $315 million of stock in fiscal 2007. The company has replaced its existing $125 million credit facility with a $350 million five-year revolving credit facility. The company will fund the $225 million ASR program through cash and its credit facility. It expects to use the remaining $75 million available under the new stock purchase authorization opportunistically. “With our solid business model and the initiatives we have in place, we remain confident in our future prospects, and our ability to generate long-term shareholder value,” Francis said. “In addition, we believe in providing our shareholders with a tangible return in the form of dividends and share repurchases.” Outlook PetSmart projects comparable store sales growth in the low- to mid-single digits for the third quarter of 2007 and for the full year. The company estimates earnings of $0.21 to $0.23 per share in the third quarter, which includes an impact of $0.04 per share to exit the State Line Tack business. For all of 2007, PetSmart expects earnings of $2.08 to $2.10 per share which includes $0.47 per share from the sale of shares of MMI in the first quarter of 2007. In addition the change to the equity method of accounting for the investment in MMI should result in a $0.01 per share benefit. Also included is a loss of approximately $0.08 per share related to exiting the State Line Tack business, an estimated $0.08 per share benefit for a 53rd week of sales in 2007, and about a $0.01 benefit from the ASR.

This teleconference will be Web-cast live for all investors at www.petm.com or www.streetevents.com. The Web-cast will be available until the company announces results for the third quarter of 2007.
