Office Depot Announces Second Quarter 2013 Results

BOCA RATON, Fla.--()--Office Depot, Inc. (NYSE: ODP), a leading global provider of office supplies and services, today announced results for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2013.

SECOND QUARTER RESULTS 1

Total Company sales for the second quarter of 2013 were $2.4 billion, down 4% compared to the second quarter of 2012 in both U.S. dollars and in constant currency. The shift in the timing of the Easter holiday had a small positive impact on sales that was offset by country exits in the International Division in late 2012 and in first quarter 2013.

The Company reported a net loss, after preferred stock dividends, of $64 million or $0.23 per share in the second quarter of 2013, compared to the same net loss, after preferred stock dividends, of $64 million or $0.23 per share in the second quarter of 2012.

  • Second quarter 2013 results included $30 million of pre-tax charges, comprised primarily of merger and certain shareholder-related expenses, restructuring activities, and $4 million related to non-cash store asset impairment charges in the North American Retail Division. Excluding these charges, the net loss, after preferred stock dividends, would have been $28 million or $0.10 per share.
  • The prior year results included $33 million of pre-tax charges, including $24 million in non-cash store asset impairment charges and $9 million in restructuring costs. Additionally, there was a $16 million income tax credit in the quarter. Excluding the charges and the tax credit, the second quarter 2012 net loss, after preferred stock dividends, would have been $40 million or $0.14 per share.

“Our second quarter results came in largely as expected, as we remain focused on executing against our multi-year strategic plan,” said Neil Austrian, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer of Office Depot. “Sales continue to be impacted by a sluggish technology category, particularly laptops, as well as ongoing budgetary pressure on our federal accounts. Despite these headwinds, however, we were pleased with our cost reduction actions and progress on our key initiatives. In addition, we remain actively engaged in integration planning related to the proposed merger with OfficeMax, which we continue to expect to close by the end of the year. Shareholders of both companies overwhelmingly supported the merger at concurrent special meetings that were held in early July, and we look forward to closing the transaction and creating an even stronger office solutions provider in an increasingly competitive environment.”

Total Company gross profit margin decreased slightly in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year period, with improvements in North American Retail and North American Business Solutions more than offset by a decrease in International.

Total Company operating expenses decreased by $39 million in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the prior year period. When adjusted for merger and certain shareholder-related expenses and impairment and restructuring charges, total Company operating expenses decreased by $38 million versus the prior year period.

Second quarter 2013 earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT), excluding merger and certain shareholder-related expenses, restructuring activities, and store asset impairment charges, was negative $8 million, compared to adjusted EBIT of negative $22 million last year in the same quarter.

The Company recorded a small tax benefit in the second quarter of 2013, reflecting the continuing impact of valuation allowances, the timing of earnings within various tax jurisdictions, as well as the change made in 2012 to recognize tax on the U.S. portion of our Mexico joint venture earnings.

The Company ended the second quarter of 2013 with a use of free cash flow of $34 million, a $32 million decrease in usage from the prior year period.

1 Includes non-GAAP information. Second quarter 2012 and 2013 results include charges for restructuring actions and non-cash store asset impairment. Second quarter 2013 results also include merger and certain shareholder-related expenses. Additional information is provided in our Form 10-Q for the fiscal quarter ended June 29, 2013. Reconciliations from GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures can be found in this release, as well as in the Investor Relations section of our corporate web site, www.officedepot.com, under the category Financial Information.

SECOND QUARTER DIVISION RESULTS

North American Retail Division

The North American Retail Division reported second quarter 2013 sales of $939 million, a decrease of 5% compared to the prior year.

Comparable store sales in the 1,077 stores that have been open for more than one year decreased 4% for the second quarter of 2013. The decline was largely driven by decreased sales of technology and peripherals, particularly mid-priced laptops, which have historically been a large part of the Division’s laptop assortment. Also, the market transition out of laptops and into tablets continued in the second quarter of 2013. Sales in Copy and Print Depot and breakroom supplies increased, while supplies and furniture sales were down year-over-year. Average order value was down approximately 3% in the second quarter, and customer transaction counts declined about 1% compared to the same period last year.

The North American Retail Division reported an operating loss of $28 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to an operating loss of $50 million in the prior year period. The Division operating losses included charges of $8 million and $25 million in the second quarter of 2013 and 2012, respectively. Charges in both periods were driven by non-cash store asset impairments and restructuring activities. Excluding the charges in both periods, the $6 million year-over-year improvement in the operating loss in the second quarter of 2013 resulted primarily from initiative-driven cost reductions, including advertising, payroll, and general & administrative expenses, which more than offset the negative flow-through impact of lower sales.

At the end of the second quarter 2013, Office Depot operated 1,109 stores in the U.S. and Puerto Rico. The North American Retail Division opened three new stores and closed five during the second quarter of 2013.

North American Business Solutions Division

The North American Business Solutions Division reported second quarter 2013 sales of $781 million, a 2% decrease compared to the prior year period.

Contract channel sales in the second quarter of 2013 were down low-single digits versus last year. By customer group, Contract experienced sales growth within small and medium-sized businesses. Excluding the federal business, there was also sales growth in the public sector, particularly within the K-12 customer group. However, sales to federal accounts were down compared to the prior year, as budgetary pressures continued in the second quarter of 2013. In the Direct channel, second quarter 2013 sales were down slightly compared to the prior year period. Growth in online sales was offset by lower purchases from customers who shop using catalogs and order through our inbound call centers.

The North American Business Solutions Division reported second quarter 2013 operating income of $31 million, compared to $20 million in the same period last year. The Division operating income in the second quarter of 2012 included $1 million in restructuring charges. Excluding charges, the $11 million year-over-year improvement in operating income reflects a slight gross margin increase which was driven by margin initiatives and cost management in supply chain, as well as lower advertising, payroll, and other expenses.

International Division

The International Division reported second quarter 2013 sales of $698 million, a decrease of 3% in both U.S. dollars and in constant currency compared to the second quarter of 2012.

Total European Contract sales decreased mid-single digits in the second quarter of 2013 versus the prior year, as growth primarily in Switzerland and Austria was more than offset by sales weakness in other countries. In the second quarter of 2013, the Division lowered prices on ink and toner, largely in the UK, to increase market competitiveness. In Asia, Contract channel sales were flat to the prior year. In the Direct channel, the rate of year-over-year sales decline continued to improve sequentially in second quarter 2013. The Division continues to focus on improvements in this channel, including numerous website enhancements and better targeting of catalog and direct mail. Retail channel sales increased in the second quarter of 2013, with growth in France and Korea partially offset by declines in Sweden.

The International Division reported an operating loss of $11 million in the second quarter of 2013, compared to a loss of $9 million in the same period last year. The Division operating loss in second quarter 2013 includes $6 million in charges related to restructuring and the exit from our joint venture in India. The Division operating loss in the second quarter of 2012 included $7 million of charges primarily related to restructuring activities in several European locations. Excluding the charges in both periods, the $3 million year-over-year operating loss increase in second quarter 2013 was primarily due to lower sales volume and margin pressure, partially offset by operating expenses reductions related to continuous process improvement initiatives.

The movement in exchange rates had a minimal impact on International Division operating income in the second quarter of 2013 compared to the same period in 2012.

Office Depot de Mexico

For the second quarter of 2013, Office Depot’s Latin American joint venture, Office Depot de Mexico, reported sales of $275 million and net income of $14 million. Office Depot accounts for this investment using the equity method, and included in the second quarter 2013 results is the 50% share of Office Depot de Mexico’s net income on the Company’s “Miscellaneous income, net” line in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations, or $7 million.

On July 9, 2013, the Company completed the sale of its investment in the joint venture to Grupo Gigante for the Mexican Peso amount of 8,777 million in cash. As a result of the sale, the Company received after-tax cash proceeds of approximately $550 million.

The terms of the Company’s 9.75% senior secured notes require that the Company use 60% of the proceeds from the sale of Office Depot de Mexico to tender for the outstanding bonds within 90 days. On July 30, 2013, the Company launched a tender offer at par plus accrued interest. The estimated fair value currently exceeds the carrying value of the notes.

Other Matters and Merger Update

At the end of the second quarter of 2013, the Company had $472 million in cash and cash equivalents on hand and $742 million in availability under the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, for a total of approximately $1.2 billion in available liquidity.

On February 20, 2013, the Company entered into a merger agreement with OfficeMax Incorporated (“OfficeMax”) pursuant to which the two companies would combine in an all-stock merger transaction (the “Merger Agreement”). At the effective time of the merger, Office Depot would issue 2.69 shares of common stock for each outstanding share of OfficeMax common stock. On July 10, 2013, shareholders of the Company and shareholders of OfficeMax approved the merger of the two companies, including the issuance of Office Depot common stock to OfficeMax stockholders pursuant to the Merger Agreement. The merger is not final until the receipt of certain regulatory approvals and completion of other customary closing conditions. As provided for in merger-related agreements, on July 11, 2013, the Company redeemed 50 percent of the redeemable preferred stock with a cash payment of $216 million.

On April 8, 2013 the Company received a Request for Additional Information and Documentary Materials from the Federal Trade Commission (“FTC”) in response to the initial Hart Scott Rodino filing made on March 8, 2013. The Company has already supplied data to the FTC based on preliminary requests and is preparing its responses to this additional request. The Company still expects to receive approval in order to close the transaction late in 2013.

Additional information on the Company’s second quarter results can be found in our Form 10-Q filed with the SEC on July 30, 2013, as well as in the Investor Relations section of our corporate website, www.officedepot.com, under the category Financial Information.
