OREANDA-NEWS. June 08, 2016. Oxford Industries, Inc. (NYSE:OXM) today announced financial results for its fiscal 2016 first quarter ended April 30, 2016.  Consolidated net sales were \\$256.2 million compared to \\$260.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. Earnings from continuing operations were \\$1.21 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to \\$1.29 in the same period of the prior year.  On an adjusted basis, earnings from continuing operations were \\$1.26 per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to \\$1.30 in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. 

Thomas C. Chubb III, Chairman and CEO, commented, “Clearly, our businesses were impacted by the well-publicized weakness in the retail environment, particularly in fashion apparel.  At Tommy Bahama, soft demand and reduced traffic in the marketplace were exacerbated by a year-over-year shift in the cadence of an important loyalty card promotion from April to May.  While April was weaker than we expected, we are encouraged by the strength Tommy Bahama has been exhibiting to date in the second quarter.”

Mr. Chubb continued, “Lilly Pulitzer had a very good first quarter with a solid 10% increase in sales over last year and a 17% increase in operating profit. These results are even more impressive given Lilly Pulitzer’s collaboration with Target, which helped fuel extraordinary growth last year. Despite a difficult year-over-year compare, we expect Lilly to deliver growth on both the top and bottom lines in fiscal 2016 and beyond.”

Mr. Chubb concluded, “We have worked hard to ensure that Oxford is well-positioned in the marketplace.  We have thoughtfully strengthened our portfolio of brands through the acquisition of Southern Tide, we have carefully controlled discretionary costs and inventory levels, and we remain strong with our opportunities for growth intact, both for the remainder of this year and well into the future.”

Consolidated Operating Results

Net Sales Consolidated net sales were \\$256.2 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to \\$260.4 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

  • Tommy Bahama’s net sales decreased 6% to \\$162.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016, with a comparable store sales decrease for the quarter of 13%, partially offset by sales from new stores.
  • Lilly Pulitzer’s net sales increased 10% in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 to \\$64.7 million with increases in all channels of distribution and a 1% comparable store sales increase in the quarter.
  • Lanier Apparel’s net sales were \\$26.6 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to \\$28.0 million in the first quarter of 2015.
  • From the acquisition date of April 19, 2016 through the end of the first quarter, Southern Tide generated \\$1.4 million of net sales.

Gross Margin and Gross Profit Gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 increased slightly to 59.4% compared to 59.3% in the prior year period.  Gross profit in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was \\$152.1 million compared to \\$154.4 million in the prior year period. On an adjusted basis, gross margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was 59.3% compared to 59.2% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  Adjusted gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was \\$152.0 million compared to \\$154.1 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.

SG&A In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, SG&A was \\$124.2 million, or 48.5% of net sales, compared to \\$122.7 million, or 47.1% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. On an adjusted basis, SG&A was \\$123.0 million, or 48.0% of net sales, compared to \\$122.3 million, or 47.0% of net sales, in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  The increase in SG&A on both a GAAP and an adjusted basis was primarily due to incremental costs associated with operating additional retail stores and restaurants.

Royalties and Other Operating Income For the first quarter of fiscal 2016, royalties and other operating income were \\$4.0 million compared to \\$3.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. 

Operating Income In the first quarter of fiscal 2016, operating income was \\$32.0 million compared to \\$35.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  On an adjusted basis, operating income was \\$33.0 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2016 compared to \\$35.5 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. 

Interest Expense Interest expense for the first quarter of fiscal 2016 was \\$0.6 million compared to \\$0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2015. 

Income Taxes For the first quarter of fiscal 2016, the effective tax rate was 35.7% compared to 38.6% in the first quarter of fiscal 2015 primarily due to improved international operating results, lower domestic earnings and the favorable benefit of certain discrete items. 

Balance Sheet and Liquidity

Inventory increased to \\$143.6 million at April 30, 2016 from \\$114.4 million at the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2015.  This increase reflects the addition of Southern Tide as well as inventory to support anticipated sales growth in the Company’s other businesses in the second quarter of fiscal 2016.

As of April 30, 2016, the Company had \\$152.9 million of borrowings outstanding under its revolving credit agreement compared to \\$130.6 million at the end of the first quarter of 2015.  The increase was primarily due to the purchase of Southern Tide on April 19, 2016, partially offset by the net proceeds from the sale of Ben Sherman in July 2015.  On May 24, 2016, the Company amended and restated its credit agreement, which increased the revolving credit facility to \\$325 million and extended the maturity to May 2021.

Outlook for Second Quarter and Fiscal Year 2016

The Company initiated its guidance for the second quarter of fiscal 2016, ending on July 30, 2016.  The Company expects net sales in a range from \\$275 million to \\$285 million compared to net sales of \\$250.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Earnings per share in the second quarter are expected to be in a range of \\$1.27 to \\$1.37, and adjusted earnings per share are expected to be in a range of \\$1.35 to \\$1.45.  This compares with second quarter fiscal 2015 earnings per share of \\$1.27 and adjusted earnings per share of \\$1.32.

The Company has revised its outlook for the full year fiscal 2016. It now expects net sales in the \\$1.03 billion to \\$1.05 billion range and earnings per share in a range of \\$3.40 to \\$3.55. On an adjusted basis, the Company expects earnings per share in a range of \\$3.65 to \\$3.80. This compares with fiscal 2015 net sales of \\$969.3 million and earnings per share of \\$3.54 and, on an adjusted basis, \\$3.64.  Interest expense for fiscal 2016 is expected to be approximately \\$3.5 million compared to \\$2.5 million in fiscal 2015, reflecting additional borrowings to acquire Southern Tide. The effective tax rate for fiscal 2016 is expected to be approximately 36% compared to 38.4% in fiscal 2015.

The Company’s capital expenditures for fiscal 2016 are expected to be approximately \\$55 million, primarily related to information technology initiatives, new retail stores and the relocation and remodeling of certain retail locations and a restaurant.
