Company sets record quarterly revenue and diluted earnings per share
Company
raises full year EPS outlook
NIWOT, Colo.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 25, 2012--
Crocs, Inc. (NASDAQ: CROX) today reported financial results for the
second quarter ended June 30, 2012. Revenue for the second quarter of
2012 increased 12.0% to $330.9 million, over revenue of $295.6 million
reported in the second quarter of 2011. This represents the highest
three month revenue level in the company’s history. Net income for the
second quarter 2012 was $61.5 million, or $0.68 per diluted share,
compared to net income of $55.5 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, in
the second quarter of 2011.
Sales growth during the quarter was driven by Asia and Americas which
was partially offset by a modest decrease in Europe. Geographically,
revenue increased 10.9% for the Americas, increased 20.5% for Asia and
decreased 5.2% for Europe.
From a channel perspective, wholesale sales increased 7.3% to $188.5
million, over sales of $175.8 million in the second quarter of 2011.
Retail sales increased 22.6% to $112.5 million, over sales of $91.8
million in the second quarter of 2011. The company ended the quarter
with 484 retail store locations, which compares to 397 locations a year
ago. Global same store sales for the second quarter of 2012 increased
1.8% on a currency neutral basis. Internet sales increased 6.6% to $29.9
million, over sales of $28.1 million in the second quarter of 2011.
John McCarvel, President and Chief Executive Officer, stated: “We’re
pleased with our ability to deliver profitability that exceeded our
second quarter projections despite some challenges in certain areas of
our business. Conditions in Europe, including currency headwinds, and
slower than expected retail sales in the Americas resulted in slightly
lower growth than expected. We are very encouraged by continued strong
growth of Asia, sell through of our products in key wholesale accounts,
our international retail performance, all driven by customer enthusiasm
for our new products.”
Margins
Gross profit for the second quarter of 2012 increased 15.2% to $196.1
million, or 59.3% as a percentage of sales, from $170.2 million, or
57.6% as a percentage of sales in the same period last year. Selling,
General, & Administrative expenses (SG&A) increased 15.0% to $124.7
million versus $108.5 million a year ago. As a percentage of sales, SG&A
was 37.7% compared to 36.7% in the second quarter of 2011.
Balance Sheet
Cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2012 increased 54.9% to $278.8
million compared to $180.0 million at June 30, 2011. Inventories at June
30, 2012 were $166.0 million, up 6.1% compared to inventories at June
30, 2011 of $156.5 million.
Backlog
Backlog at June 30, 2012 increased 2.7% to $172.6 million compared to
backlog of $168.1 million at June 30, 2011. On a constant currency
basis, backlog is up approximately 6% over 2011.
Guidance
For the third quarter of 2012, the Company expects revenue of $300
million and diluted earnings per share to be between $0.42 and $0.44.
John McCarvel, continued: “Based on our year to date results, the
increasing count of retail stores and the strength of our wholesale
business, we are projecting that we will finish 2012 with US dollar
revenue growth of about 14% over 2011, which on a constant currency
growth represents 17.5%, inline with our previous guidance. For
the first half of the year, we earned $0.99 per diluted share and we now
project earnings to be between $1.50 and $1.54 per diluted share for the
full year. We believe the diversification in our business model, global
presence and product breadth provides the platform for continued sales
growth and earnings expansion.”

(1) Comparable store status is determined on a monthly
basis. Comparable store sales begin in the thirteen month of a
store's operation. Stores in which selling square footage has
changed more than 15% as a result of a remodel, expansion or
reduction are excluded until the thirteenth month they have
comparable prior year sales. Temporarily closed stores are excluded
from the comparable store sales calculation during the month of
closure. Locations closures in excess of three months are excluded
until the thirteen month post re-opening.
|
|
(2) Current period results have been restated using 2011 average
foreign exchange rates for the comparative period to enhance the
visibility of the underlying business trends excluding the impact of
foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
