1 Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as well as amounts presented on a constant currency basis, are not measures recognized under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"). For additional information on our use of non-GAAP financial measures, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures", "Constant Currency" and the accompanying financial tables which reconcile GAAP financial measures to these non-GAAP measures below. 2 Sales yield is presented on a currency neutral and comparable store sales growth basis. We define sales yield as retail sales generated per pound of processed volume. |
Fiscal 2023 Outlook
The Company expects the following for the fifty-two weeks ended December 30, 2023 ("fiscal 2023"):
- The opening of approximately 12 new stores;
- Total net sales of approximately $1.51 billion;
- Comparable store sales growth increase of approximately 5.0%;
- Net income of approximately $23 million;
- Adjusted net income of approximately $98 million1;
- Adjusted EBITDA of approximately $320 million2;
- Capital expenditures in the range of $100 to $105 million; and
- GAAP-based diluted weighted average common shares outstanding of approximately 160.0 million.
Assumed in the Company's net income is stock-based compensation of approximately $69 million reflecting equity issued in connection with the Company's IPO, of which $48 million and $21 million is expected to be recognized during the third and fourth quarters, respectively.
1 Adjusted net income is not a measure recognized under U.S. GAAP. For additional information on our use of non-GAAP financial measures, see "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" and the accompanying financial tables which reconcile GAAP financial measures to non-GAAP measures below. 2 We have not reconciled guidance for Adjusted EBITDA to the corresponding GAAP financial measure because we cannot determine the probable significance of the various reconciling items, as certain items are outside of our control and cannot be reasonably predicted due to the fact that these items could vary significantly period to period. Accordingly, reconciliations to the corresponding GAAP financial measure is not available without unreasonable effort. |
Initial Public Offering
On July 03, 2023, the Company completed its initial public offering ("IPO") for the sale of 18.8 million shares of its common stock at a public offering price of $18.00 per share. Net proceeds to the Company from the IPO were $305.7 million after deducting underwriting discounts and commissions of $22.8 million and unpaid offering expenses of approximately $9.0 million. The Company used the net proceeds from its IPO, together with an additional $5.9 million of cash on its balance sheet, to redeem $55.0 million aggregate principal amount of the Senior Secured Notes and repay $252.4 million aggregate principal amount of outstanding borrowings under the Term Loan Facility, as well as accrued and unpaid interest and premium under the Term Loan Facility and the Notes. These transactions resulted in a loss on extinguishment of debt of $10.6 million. Following the partial redemption of the Senior Secured Notes and partial repayment of the Term Loan Facility, the total face value of debt outstanding was $819.8 million. Following the IPO, the Company's net leverage was 2.3x which we define as total debt less unrestricted cash, divided by Adjusted EBITDA for the trailing twelve months.

Forward-looking statements are based on the Company's current expectations and assumptions regarding its business, the economy and other future conditions. Because forward-looking statements relate to the future, by their nature, they are subject to inherent uncertainties, risks and changes in circumstances that are difficult to predict. As a result, the Company's actual results may differ materially from those contemplated by the forward-looking statements. Important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those in the forward-looking statements include regional, national or global political, economic, business, competitive, market and regulatory conditions, including, but not limited to, legislation, national trade policy, and the following: the Company's failure to adequately procure and manage its inventory or anticipate consumer demand; changes in consumer confidence and spending; risks associated with its status as a "brick and mortar" only retailer; risks associated with intense competition; its failure to open new profitable stores, or successfully enter new markets on a timely basis or at all; the risks associated with doing business with international manufacturers and suppliers including, but not limited to, transportation and shipping challenges, and potential increases in tariffs on imported goods; outbreak of viruses or widespread illness, including the continued impact of COVID-19 and continuing or renewed regulatory responses thereto; risks associated with heightened geopolitical instability due to the Russia/Ukraine conflict; its inability to operate its stores due to civil unrest and related protests or disturbances; its failure to properly hire and to retain key personnel and other qualified personnel; its inability to obtain favorable lease terms for its properties; the failure to timely acquire, develop and open, the loss of, or disruption or interruption in the operations of, its centralized distribution centers; fluctuations in comparable store sales and results of operations, including on a quarterly basis; risks associated with its lack of operations in the growing online retail marketplace; risks associated with litigation, the expense of defense, and the potential for adverse outcomes; its inability to successfully develop or implement its marketing, advertising and promotional efforts; the seasonal nature of its business; risks associated with the timely and effective deployment, protection, and defense of computer networks and other electronic systems, including e-mail; changes in government regulations, procedures and requirements; risks associated with natural disasters, whether or not caused by climate change; and its ability to service indebtedness and to comply with its financial covenants together with each of the other factors set forth under the heading "Risk Factors" in its filings with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC"). Any forward-looking statement made by us in this press release speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Factors or events that could cause the Company's actual results to differ may emerge from time to time, and it is not possible for us to predict all of them. The Company is not under any obligation (and specifically disclaims any such obligation) to update or alter these forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company reports its financial results in accordance with GAAP. Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin are non-GAAP financial measures. The Company has included these non-GAAP measures in this press release as these are key measures used by its management and its board of directors to evaluate its operating performance and the effectiveness of its business strategies, make budgeting decision, and evaluate compensation decisions. Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin have limitations as analytical tools and you should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP. There are limitations to using non-GAAP financial measures, including those amounts presented in accordance with the Company's definitions of Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin, as they may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by its competitors, because not all companies and analysts calculate Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin in the same manner. Because of these limitations, you should consider Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin alongside other financial performance measures, including, as applicable, net income and the Company's other GAAP results. The Company presents Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin because we consider these meaningful measures to share with investors because they best allow comparison of the performance of one period with that of another period. In addition, Adjusted net income, Adjusted net income per diluted share, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA margin afford investors a view of what management considers its operating performance to be and the ability to make a more informed assessment of such operating performance as compared with that of the prior period.
Adjusted net income is defined as net income excluding the impact of loss on extinguishment of debt, non-recurring stock-based compensation expense, transaction costs, divided-related bonus, certain other expenses, and the tax effect on the above adjustments. The Company defines Adjusted net income per diluted shares as Adjusted net income divided by diluted weighted average common shares outstanding.
The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA as net income before interest expense, net, income tax expense, and depreciation and amortization, Adjusted to exclude loss on extinguishment of debt, stock-based compensation expense, non-cash occupancy-related costs, lease intangible asset expense, pre-opening expenses, store closing expenses, executive transition costs, transaction costs, dividend-related bonus, and certain other adjustments. The Company defines Adjusted EBITDA margin as Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales.
Constant Currency
The Company reports certain operating results on a constant-currency basis in order to facilitate period-to-period comparisons of its results without regard to the impact of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. The term foreign currency exchange rates refer to the exchange rates used to translate the Company's operating results for all countries where the transactional currency is not the U.S. Dollar into U.S. Dollars. Because the Company is a global company, foreign currency exchange rates used for translation may have a significant effect on its reported results. In general, the Company's financial results are affected positively by a weaker U.S. Dollar and are affected negatively by a stronger U.S. Dollar. References to operating results on a constant-currency basis mean operating results without the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
The Company believes disclosure of constant-currency results is helpful to investors because it facilitates period-to-period comparisons of its results by increasing the transparency of the underlying performance by excluding the impact of fluctuating foreign currency exchange rates. However, constant-currency results are non-GAAP financial measures and are not meant to be considered as an alternative or substitute for comparable measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. Constant-currency results have no standardized meaning prescribed by GAAP, are not prepared under any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles and should be read in conjunction with the Company's consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP. Constant-currency results have limitations in their usefulness to investors and may be calculated differently from, and therefore may not be directly comparable to, similarly titled measures used by other companies.
Constant currency information compares results between periods as if exchange rates had remained constant period-over-period. During the thirteen weeks ended and twenty-six weeks ended July 1, 2023, as compared to the thirteen weeks ended and twenty-six weeks ended July 2, 2022, the U.S. dollar was stronger relative to the Canadian and Australian dollars which resulted in an unfavorable foreign currency impact on our operating results. To present this information, our current operating results in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are converted into U.S. dollars using the average exchange rates from the comparative prior period rather than the actual average exchange rates in effect.
