SIDNEY, Neb.--()--Cabela’s Incorporated (NYSE:CAB) today reported financial results for second quarter fiscal 2016.

For the quarter, total revenue increased 11.2% to $929.9 million; revenue from retail store sales increased 13.3% to $644.9 million; Internet and catalog sales increased 3.3% to $141.3 million; and Financial Services revenue increased 8.1% to $135.1 million. During the period, adjusted for the shift in weeks, U.S. comparable store sales increased 2.0% and consolidated comparable store sales increased 1.5%.

For the quarter, net income decreased 5.7% to $37.8 million compared to $40.1 million in the year ago quarter, and earnings per diluted share were $0.55 compared to $0.56 in the year ago quarter. Adjusted for certain items, the Company reported second quarter net income of $40.8 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.59 as compared to net income of $40.1 million and earnings per diluted share of $0.56 in the year ago quarter. Second quarter 2016 GAAP results included impairment and restructuring charges and other items totaling $0.04 in earnings per diluted share. See the supporting schedules to this earnings release labeled “Reconciliation of GAAP Reported to Non-GAAP Adjusted Financial Measures” for a reconciliation of the GAAP to non-GAAP financial measures.

“Success in our expense management efforts allowed us to take a more aggressive price and promotion approach in the second quarter,” said Tommy Millner, Cabela’s Chief Executive Officer. “This approach led to improvements in transaction trends, positive comparable store sales, growth in Internet and catalog sales, and market share improvements. As we look to the balance of the year, we will continue to weigh opportunities to drive revenue through the utilization of our expense initiative savings.”

For the quarter, consolidated comparable store sales increased 1.5% and U.S. comparable store sales increased 2.0% as compared to the same quarter a year ago. This marks the first quarter of positive comparable store sales since the third quarter of 2013. This increase was attributable to strength in firearms and shooting related categories as well as the camping, powersports, and fishing categories. Internet and catalog sales increased 3.3% in the quarter as a result of strength in the aforementioned categories as well as the home/gifts and hunting apparel categories.

Merchandise gross margins decreased by 290 basis points in the quarter to 32.9% compared to 35.8% in the same quarter a year ago. This decrease was the result of a purposeful plan to right size inventory levels, improve transaction trends, drive positive comparable store sales, and generate positive Internet and catalog sales, all of which occurred in the quarter. The 290 basis point decline was attributable to more aggressive pricing, increased discounts, merchandise mix, and timing of promotions. This strategy was possible due to expense management initiatives, which resulted in GAAP basis SD&A expenses as a percentage of total revenue decreasing 280 basis points to 35.5% as compared to 38.3% and on a non-GAAP basis decreasing 330 basis points to 35.0% as compared to 38.3% in the same quarter a year ago.

“Our expense and process improvement activities have exceeded our expectations,” Millner said. “It is important to note that the second quarter marks the third consecutive quarter of expense leverage at Cabela’s and the rate is accelerating. We have not only lowered our expense levels, but have also implemented process improvement activities to ensure that these savings are permanent. We are in the early stage of many of these initiatives and expect ongoing benefit in the balance of 2016 and beyond.”

Cabela’s CLUB had an excellent quarter despite an increase in the loan loss reserve. Due to higher delinquency rates, the reserve for loan losses increased by $9.2 million in the quarter. During the quarter, growth in the average number of active credit card accounts was 7.3% and growth in average balance per active credit card account was 7.7%. The average balance of credit card loans grew 15.5% to almost $5.0 billion. For the quarter, net charge-offs were 2.13%. Second quarter Financial Services revenue increased 8.1%, driven by increases in interest and fee income as well as interchange income, both of which were partially offset by the increase in the provision for loan losses.

The second quarter effective tax rate was 39.3% compared to 34.1% in the same quarter a year ago. The increase in the effective tax rate was primarily due to increases in nondeductible expenses, tax adjustments attributable to changes in the mix of taxable income between the United States and foreign tax jurisdictions, and state income taxes and a decrease in research and development tax credits received.

“We continue to be very pleased with the success of our expense initiatives and our ability to generate top-line improvement through the reinvestment of expense savings,” Millner said. “As a result, for full-year 2016, we continue to expect a high-single-digit growth rate in revenue and a high-single-digit or low-double-digit growth rate in earnings per diluted share as compared to full-year 2015 adjusted earnings per diluted share of $2.88.”

On December 2, 2015, the Company issued a press release announcing that its Board of Directors was initiating a process to explore and evaluate a wide range of strategic alternatives to enhance value for the Company’s shareholders. That process has continued and is ongoing.

RECONCILIATION OF GAAP REPORTED TO NON-GAAP ADJUSTED FINANCIAL MEASURES (1)
(Unaudited)

To supplement our consolidated statements of income presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), we are providing non-GAAP adjusted financial measures of operating results that exclude certain items. Selling, distribution, and administrative expenses; impairment and restructuring charges; operating income; operating income as a percentage of total revenue; other non-operating income, net; income before provision for income taxes; provision for income taxes; net income; and earnings per diluted share are presented below both as GAAP reported and non-GAAP financial measures excluding (i) consulting fees and certain expenses primarily related to our corporate restructuring initiative and review of strategic alternatives; (ii) a charge recognized pursuant to a preliminary lawsuit settlement; (iii) impairment and restructuring charges; and (iv) receipt on a note receivable balance previously written off. In light of the nature and magnitude, we believe these items should be presented separately to enhance a reader’s overall understanding of the Company’s ongoing operations. These non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should be considered in conjunction with the GAAP financial measures.

We believe these non-GAAP adjusted financial measures provide useful supplemental information to investors regarding the underlying business trends and performance of our ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. In addition, we evaluate results using non-GAAP adjusted operating income, adjusted net income, and adjusted earnings per diluted share. These non-GAAP adjusted financial measures should not be considered in isolation or as a substitute for operating income, net income, earnings per diluted share, or any other measure calculated in accordance with GAAP. The following tables reconcile these financial measures to the related GAAP adjusted financial measures for the periods presented.
