EL PASO, Texas--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Helen of Troy Limited (NASDAQ: HELE), designer, developer and worldwide marketer of consumer brand-name home, outdoor, health, wellness, and beauty products, today reported results for the three-month period ended August 31, 2022.
Executive Summary - Second Quarter of Fiscal 2023 Compared to Fiscal 2022, Fiscal 2021 and Fiscal 2020
- Consolidated net sales revenue was $521.4 million, an increase of 9.7% from fiscal 2022, a decrease of 1.8% from fiscal 2021, and an increase of 25.9% from fiscal 2020
- Core business net sales increase of 11.1% from fiscal 2022, an increase of 2.3% from fiscal 2021, and an increase of 34.0% from fiscal 2020
- GAAP diluted EPS of $1.28, compared to $2.11 for the same period last year, $3.43 for fiscal 2021, and $1.83 for fiscal 2020
- Non-GAAP Core adjusted diluted EPS of $2.27, a decrease of 14.3% from fiscal 2022, a decrease of 36.2% from fiscal 2021, and an increase of 10.7% from fiscal 2020
- Non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS of $2.27, a decrease of 14.3% from fiscal 2022, a decrease of 39.8% from fiscal 2021, and an increase of 1.3% from fiscal 2020
Julien R. Mininberg, Chief Executive Officer, stated: "Although we reported results in-line with our expectations for the quarter, we see consumers increasingly adjusting their spending patterns in response to rising inflation and the impact of higher interest rates, particularly in our premium segments in some categories. Additionally, retailers continue to adjust their inventories to better align with their updated sales forecasts. We expect the current external operating environment to remain highly challenging, causing us to lower our fiscal year 2023 outlook. Our entire organization is hard at work on optimizing results in this environment while executing the most important strategic projects."
Mr. Mininberg continued: "During the quarter, we also focused on developing the set of global efficiency initiatives we first announced in July, which will now be collectively referred to as Project Pegasus. Noel Geoffroy, our COO, is leading this strategic initiative with the support of a premium global consulting firm, as well as a dedicated internal core team. Under Pegasus, we expect to further leverage the foundation we have built through the first two phases of our transformation by implementing a set of initiatives intended to improve operating margins, cash flow, and operating and organizational efficiency, as well as provide a platform for future growth investments. We believe these initiatives will improve profitability and provide significant fuel to reinvest in the flywheel."

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company committed to a plan to divest certain assets within its Beauty segment's mass channel personal care business ("Personal Care"). On June 7, 2021, the Company completed the sale of its North America Personal Care business and on March 25, 2022, the Company completed the sale of the Latin America and Caribbean Personal Care business. The Company defines Core business as strategic business that it expects to be an ongoing part of its operations, and Non-Core business as business or net assets (including net assets held for sale) that it expects to divest within a year of its designation as Non-Core. Accordingly, sales from the Personal Care business were included in Non-Core business for all historical periods presented. As a result of these dispositions, the Company no longer has any results of operations from Non-Core business or any assets or liabilities classified as held for sale.

Consolidated Results - Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Compared to Second Quarter Fiscal 2022
- Consolidated net sales revenue increased $46.2 million, or 9.7%, to $521.4 million compared to $475.2 million. The increase was primarily due to the contribution from the acquisitions of Osprey of $47.4 million and Curlsmith of $10.2 million, or 12.1% to consolidated net sales revenue growth. This growth was partially offset by a decrease from Organic business of $7.2 million, or 1.5%. The Organic business decrease primarily reflects lower sales in the Beauty segment hair appliances category and home-related categories in the Home & Outdoor segment due to lower consumer demand, shifts in consumer spending patterns and reduced orders from retail customers due to higher trade inventory levels, and a net sales revenue decline of $5.7 million in Non-Core business due to the sale of the Personal Care business. These factors were partially offset by an increase in sales in the Health & Wellness segment as a result of the EPA packaging compliance matter and related stop shipment actions in the comparative prior year period, growth in international sales, higher prestige market personal care category sales in the Beauty segment, and the impact of customer price increases related to rising freight and product costs.
- Consolidated gross profit margin decreased 1.8 percentage points to 42.5%, compared to 44.3%. The decrease in consolidated gross profit margin was primarily due to the unfavorable impact of less Beauty segment sales within consolidated net sales revenue, a less favorable product mix within the Home & Outdoor segment due to the acquisition of Osprey, an increase in EPA compliance costs of $6.7 million, higher inventory obsolescence expense, and the net dilutive impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases. These factors were partially offset by a more favorable product mix within the Beauty segment.
- Consolidated selling, general and administrative expense ("SG&A") ratio increased 2.5 percentage points to 32.6%, compared to 30.1%. The increase in the consolidated SG&A ratio was primarily due to an increase in outbound freight costs, increased marketing expense, higher salary and wage costs, increased amortization expense, higher distribution expense, and the unfavorable comparative impact of gains recognized on the sale of property and equipment and the sale of the North America Personal Care business in the prior year period. These factors were partially offset by the favorable leverage impact of the increase in net sales, the favorable leverage impact of customer price increases related to inflationary costs, reduced annual incentive compensation expense, and a decrease in EPA compliance costs of $1.4 million.
- Consolidated operating income was $46.9 million, or 9.0% of net sales revenue, compared to $67.3 million, or 14.2% of net sales revenue. The 5.2 percentage point decrease in consolidated operating margin was primarily due to an increase in outbound freight costs, an increase in EPA compliance costs of $5.4 million, restructuring charges of $4.8 million, increased marketing expense, the unfavorable impact of less Beauty segment sales within consolidated net sales revenue, a less favorable product mix within the Home & Outdoor segment due to the acquisition of Osprey, increased amortization expense, higher inventory obsolescence expense, higher salary and wage costs, the net dilutive impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases, higher distribution expense, and the unfavorable comparative impact of gains recognized on the sale of property and equipment and the sale of the North America Personal Care business in the prior year period. These factors were partially offset by favorable operating leverage, reduced annual incentive compensation expense, a decrease in share-based compensation expense, and a more favorable product mix within the Beauty segment.
- Interest expense was $9.2 million, compared to $3.3 million. The increase in interest expense was primarily due to higher average levels of debt outstanding, including borrowings to fund the acquisitions of Osprey and Curlsmith as well as construction of a new distribution center, and higher average interest rates.
- Income tax expense as a percentage of income before income tax was 19.1% compared to 19.8%, primarily due to the mix of taxable income in various tax jurisdictions.
- Net income was $30.7 million, compared to $51.3 million. Diluted EPS was $1.28, compared to $2.11. Diluted EPS decreased primarily due to lower operating income in the Beauty segment, an operating loss in the Health & Wellness segment, and higher interest expense. These factors were partially offset by higher operating income in the Home & Outdoor segment, a decrease in the effective tax rate and lower weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
- Adjusted EBITDA (earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization) decreased 9.6% to $78.8 million compared to $87.2 million.
On an adjusted basis for the second quarters of fiscal 2023 and 2022, excluding acquisition-related expenses, EPA compliance costs, restructuring charges, amortization of intangible assets, and non-cash share-based compensation, as applicable:
- Adjusted operating income decreased $9.1 million, or 11.2%, to $72.3 million, or 13.9% of net sales revenue, compared to $81.4 million, or 17.1% of net sales revenue. The 3.2 percentage point decrease in adjusted operating margin is primarily driven by an increase in outbound freight costs, increased marketing expense, the unfavorable impact of less Beauty segment sales within consolidated net sales revenue, a less favorable product mix within the Home & Outdoor segment due to the acquisition of Osprey, higher inventory obsolescence expense, higher salary and wage costs, higher distribution expense, the unfavorable comparative impact of gains recognized on the sale of property and equipment and the sale of the North America Personal Care business in the prior year period, and the net dilutive impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases. These factors were partially offset by favorable operating leverage, reduced annual incentive compensation expense, and a more favorable product mix within the Beauty segment.
- Adjusted income decreased $9.8 million, or 15.2%, to $54.7 million, compared to $64.5 million for the same period last year. Adjusted diluted EPS decreased 14.3% to $2.27 compared to $2.65. The decrease in adjusted diluted EPS was primarily due to lower adjusted operating income in the Beauty segment and higher interest expense. These factors were partially offset by higher adjusted operating income in the Health & Wellness and Home & Outdoor segments, a decrease in the adjusted effective tax rate and lower weighted average diluted shares outstanding.
Segment Results - Second Quarter Fiscal 2023 Compared to Second Quarter Fiscal 2022
Home & Outdoor net sales revenue increased $25.3 million, or 11.8%, to $240.6 million, compared to $215.2 million, primarily due to the contribution from the acquisition of Osprey of $47.4 million, or 22.0%, to segment net sales revenue growth. This growth comes on top of a 6.6% increase in the prior year period. Growth in the quarter was partially offset by a decrease from Organic business of $19.3 million, or 9.0%, driven by a decline in sales in home-related categories primarily due to lower consumer demand driven by shifts in consumer spending patterns and reduced orders from retail customers due to higher trade inventory levels and lower sales in the club channel. These factors were partially offset by growth in international sales, higher sales in the closeout channel, and the impact of customer price increases related to rising freight and product costs. Operating income was $42.1 million, or 17.5% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $41.9 million, or 19.5% of segment net sales revenue. The 2.0 percentage point decrease in segment operating margin was primarily due to the impact of the acquisition of Osprey, which has a lower operating margin than the rest of the Home & Outdoor segment, increased salary and wage costs, higher marketing expense, the net dilutive impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases, and increased outbound freight costs. These factors were partially offset by favorable operating leverage, a decrease in distribution expense, a more favorable channel mix, reduced annual incentive compensation expense, and lower share-based compensation expense. Adjusted operating income increased 2.2% to $47.0 million, or 19.5% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $46.0 million, or 21.4% of segment net sales revenue.
Health & Wellness net sales revenue increased $39.0 million, or 27.6%, to $180.5 million, compared to $141.5 million. The increase was driven by an increase from Organic business of $39.5 million, or 27.9%, primarily due to an increase in sales of water filtration, air filtration and humidification products as a result of the EPA packaging compliance matter and related stop shipment actions in the comparative prior year period, growth in international sales, an increase in seasonal category sales, and the impact of customer price increases related to rising freight and product costs. These factors were partially offset by a decrease in thermometry and air filtration sales as a result of stronger COVID-19 driven demand for health-related products in the comparative prior year period. Operating loss was $2.6 million, or (1.4)% of segment net sales revenue, compared to operating income of $4.8 million, or 3.4% of segment net sales revenue. The 4.8 percentage point decrease in segment operating margin was primarily due to an increase in EPA compliance costs of $5.4 million, the unfavorable comparative impact of tariff exclusion refunds received in the prior year period, increased outbound freight costs, restructuring charges of $3.6 million, higher distribution expense, higher inventory obsolescence expense, higher marketing expense, and an increase in legal fees. These factors were partially offset by favorable operating leverage, reduced salary and wage costs, decreased annual incentive compensation expense, a more favorable product mix, a decrease in share-based compensation expense, and the net impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases. Adjusted operating income increased 13.8% to $12.5 million, or 6.9% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $11.0 million, or 7.7% of segment net sales revenue.
Beauty net sales revenue decreased $18.2 million, or 15.4%, to $100.3 million, compared to $118.5 million. The decline was driven by a decrease from Organic business of $27.4 million, or 23.1%. The Organic business decrease was primarily due to reduced hair appliances category sales driven by lower consumer demand, shifts in consumer spending patterns and reduced orders from retail customers due to higher trade inventory levels and a decline in Non-Core business net sales revenue due to the sale of the Personal Care business. These factors were partially offset by higher prestige market personal care category sales and the impact of customer price increases related to rising freight and product costs. The Organic business decline was partially offset by growth from the acquisition of Curlsmith of $10.2 million, or 8.6%, to segment net sales revenue growth. Operating income was $7.5 million, or 7.4% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $20.6 million, or 17.4% of segment net sales revenue. The 10.0 percentage point decrease in segment operating margin was primarily due to unfavorable operating leverage, increased salary and wage costs, higher distribution expense, an increase in marketing expense, the unfavorable comparative impact of gains recognized on the sale of property and equipment and the sale of the North America Personal Care business in the prior year period, increased outbound freight costs, an increase in amortization expense, restructuring charges of $0.8 million, higher share-based compensation expense, higher inventory obsolescence expense, and the net dilutive impact of inflationary costs and related customer price increases. These factors were partially offset by decreased annual incentive compensation expense and a more favorable product mix. Adjusted operating income decreased 47.7% to $12.8 million, or 12.7% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $24.5 million, or 20.6% of segment net sales revenue.

Restructuring Plan
During the second quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company focused on developing a global restructuring plan intended to expand operating margins through initiatives designed to improve efficiency and reduce costs (collectively referred to as "Project Pegasus"). Project Pegasus includes initiatives to further optimize the Company's brand portfolio, streamline and simplify the organization, accelerate cost of goods savings projects, enhance the efficiency of its supply chain network, optimize its indirect spending, and improve its cash flow and working capital, as well as other activities. The Company anticipates these initiatives will create operating efficiencies, as well as provide a platform to fund future growth investments. The Company has the following expectations regarding Project Pegasus:
- Targeted annualized pre-tax operating profit improvements of approximately $75 million to $85 million, which the Company expects to begin in fiscal 2024 and be substantially achieved by the end of fiscal 2026.
- Estimated cadence of the recognition of the savings will be approximately 25% in fiscal 2024, approximately 50% in fiscal 2025 and approximately 25% in fiscal 2026.
- Total profit improvements to be realized approximately 60% through reduced cost of goods sold and 40% through lower SG&A.
- Total one-time pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $85 million to $95 million over the duration of the plan and will primarily be comprised of severance and employee related costs, professional fees, contract termination costs, and other exit and disposal costs.
- All of the Company's operating segments and shared services will be impacted by the plan.
In addition, the Company has implemented plans to reduce inventory levels, increase inventory turns, and improve cash flow and working capital. The Company expects improvements related to these initiatives to begin in the second half of fiscal 2023 and to continue into fiscal 2024.
Updated Fiscal 2023 Annual Outlook
The Company believes that Core business growth is the most relevant basis, as it provides the best comparability between historical and future periods. Due to the sale of the Personal Care business, the Company is not currently expecting any material activity related to Non-Core business in fiscal 2023. Therefore, the amounts included in its updated outlook for fiscal 2023 will be shown on a consolidated basis. However, due to the fact that the fiscal 2022 results include material activity related to Non-Core business, the year-over-year growth rates on a consolidated and Core business basis will be different. Where appropriate, the information provided in the outlook will reflect growth rates on both a consolidated and Core business basis.
The Company now expects consolidated net sales revenue in the range of $2.00 billion to $2.05 billion, which implies a decline of 10.0% to 7.8%, and a Core business decline of 8.6% to 6.4%.
The Company's updated fiscal year net sales outlook reflects the following expectations by segment:
- Home & Outdoor net sales growth of 3.5% to 5.5%; including net sales from Osprey of $180 million to $185 million;
- Health & Wellness net sales decline of 13% to 11%; and
- Beauty Core business net sales decline of 21% to 19%; including net sales from Curlsmith of $30 million to $35 million.
The Company now expects consolidated GAAP diluted EPS of $4.26 to $4.93 and consolidated non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS in the range of $9.00 to $9.40, which implies a decrease in consolidated adjusted diluted EPS in the range of 27.2% to 23.9%, and a decrease in Core adjusted diluted EPS in the range of 26.1% to 22.8%. This includes adjusted diluted EPS contribution from Osprey of approximately $0.35 to $0.40, and $0.15 to $0.20 from Curlsmith.
The Company's updated consolidated net sales and EPS outlooks reflect the following assumptions:
- the assumption that the severity of the cough/cold/flu season will be in line with pre-COVID historical averages;
- September 2022 foreign currency exchange rates will remain constant for the remainder of the fiscal year;
- the estimated net favorable impact to net sales of approximately $10 million and adjusted diluted EPS of approximately $0.10 related to the EPA matter;
- estimated incremental after-tax inflationary cost pressures in the range of $55 million to $60 million, or approximately $2.25 to $2.50 of adjusted diluted EPS;
- expected interest expense in the range of $45 million to $47 million due to the current assumption that the Federal Open Market Committee will increase interest rates by 450 basis points during calendar year 2022;
- a reported consolidated GAAP effective tax rate range of 18.4% to 17.9% for the full fiscal year 2023 and a consolidated adjusted effective tax rate range of 12.5% to 13.5%; and
- an estimated weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 24.2 million.
The Company now expects capital and intangible asset expenditures of $180 million to $190 million for the full fiscal year 2023 including expected expenditures of $155 million to $165 million related to the construction of a previously announced new distribution facility that is expected to be completed by the end of fiscal 2023.
Due to the current dynamic market conditions and unique factors effecting the comparability to the prior year base, the Company is providing additional quarterly context for its current expectation of the net sales revenue and adjusted diluted EPS outlook. With regard to quarterly cadence of the consolidated net sales outlook for the fiscal year, the Company now expects a mid-teen percent sales decline in the third quarter, and a high-teen sales decline in the fourth quarter.
With regard to quarterly cadence of the consolidated adjusted diluted EPS outlook for the fiscal year, the Company now expects a high-twenties percent decline in the third quarter and a low-twenties percent decline in the fourth quarter. Both quarterly declines are primarily due to lower sales volume, higher interest expense and a higher adjusted effective tax rate.
The likelihood and potential impact of any fiscal 2023 acquisitions and divestitures, future asset impairment charges, future foreign currency fluctuations, additional interest rate increases, material long-term distribution losses and/or customer returns that may arise related to the EPA matter, or further share repurchases are unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated; therefore, they are not included in the Company's updated outlook.

HELEN OF TROY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Press Release
- Organic business refers to net sales revenue associated with product lines or brands after the first twelve months from the date the product line or brand is acquired, excluding the impact that foreign currency remeasurement had on reported net sales revenue. Net sales revenue from internally developed brands or product lines is considered Organic business activity.
- The three and six month periods ended August 31, 2022 include operating results from Osprey, which was acquired on December 29, 2021, and approximately thirteen and nineteen weeks of operating results from Curlsmith, respectively, which was acquired on April 22, 2022.
- The Company defines Core business as strategic business that it expects to be an ongoing part of its operations, and Non-Core business as business or net assets (including net assets held for sale) that it expects to divest within a year of its designation as Non-Core.
- Leadership Brand net sales consists of revenue from the OXO, Hydro Flask, Osprey, Vicks, Braun, Honeywell, PUR, Hot Tools and Drybar brands.
- Online channel net sales revenue includes direct to consumer online net sales, net sales to retail customers fulfilling end-consumer online orders and net sales to pure-play online retailers.
- This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Core Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Adjusted Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, Core and Non-Core Adjusted Diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow ("Non-GAAP Financial Measures") that are discussed in the accompanying press release or in the preceding tables may be considered non-GAAP financial information as contemplated by SEC Regulation G, Rule 100. Accordingly, the Company is providing the preceding tables that reconcile these measures to their corresponding GAAP-based measures. The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures, in combination with the Company's financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain charges and benefits on applicable income, margin and earnings per share measures. The Company also believes that these non-GAAP measures facilitate a more direct comparison of the Company's performance with its competitors. The Company further believes that including the excluded charges and benefits would not accurately reflect the underlying performance of the Company's operations for the period in which the charges and benefits are incurred, even though such charges and benefits may be incurred and reflected in the Company's GAAP financial results in the near future. The material limitation associated with the use of the non-GAAP measures is that the non-GAAP measures do not reflect the full economic impact of the Company's activities. These non-GAAP measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not an alternative to GAAP financial information, and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial information disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on non-GAAP information.
- Charges incurred in conjunction with EPA packaging compliance for certain products in the air filtration, water filtration and humidification categories within the Health & Wellness segment.
- Acquisition-related expenses associated with the definitive agreements to acquire Osprey and Curlsmith included in SG&A for the three and six month periods ended August 31, 2022.
- Amortization of intangible assets.
- Non-cash share-based compensation.
- Charges incurred in connection with the Company's current restructuring plan, Project Pegasus, and its prior restructuring plan, Project Refuel, which was completed during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.
- Accounts receivable turnover, inventory turnover and return on average equity computations use 12 month trailing net sales revenue, cost of goods sold or net income components as required by the particular measure. The current and four prior quarters' ending balances of trade accounts receivable, inventory and equity are used for the purposes of computing the average balance component as required by the particular measure.
