COLUMBUS, Ohio, Dec. 2, 2016 /PRNewswire/ -- Big Lots, Inc.
(NYSE: BIG) today reported income from continuing operations of
$1.4 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, for the third quarter of
fiscal 2016 ended October 29, 2016.
This result includes an after tax expense of $0.5 million, or $0.01 per diluted share, associated with legacy
pension plans which have been terminated. Excluding this expense,
adjusted income from continuing operations totaled $1.9 million, or $0.04 per diluted share (see non-GAAP table
included later in this release), which compares to our guidance for
continuing operations in the range of an adjusted loss of
$0.04 per share (non-GAAP) to
adjusted income of $0.01 per diluted
share (non-GAAP). In the third quarter of fiscal 2015, the adjusted
loss from continuing operations totaled $0.2
million, or $0.00 per share
(non-GAAP). Comparable store sales were flat for the third quarter
of fiscal 2016, compared to our guidance of flat to an increase of
2%. Net sales for the quarter decreased 1.0% to $1,105 million, a result of a lower store count
year-over-year.
Commenting on today's release, David
Campisi, Chief Executive Officer and President of Big Lots,
stated, "We are pleased to report in a challenging retail
environment the team delivered upon our financial commitments.
Sales were in line with our communicated guidance while EPS was
above our expectations. Jennifer continues to positively respond to
our focus on ownable and winnable merchandise categories, improved
merchandise presentations and more consistent in-store
execution."

Inventory and Cash Management
Inventory ended the third quarter of fiscal 2016 at $1,036 million, a 1% decrease compared to
$1,047 million for the third quarter
of fiscal 2015 as Inventory per store was flat to last year coupled
with a lower store count year-over-year.
We ended the third quarter of fiscal 2016 with $60 million of Cash and Cash Equivalents and
$363 million of borrowings under our
credit facility compared of $62
million of Cash and Cash Equivalents and $335 million of borrowings under our credit
facility as of the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2015. Our
growth in year-over-year borrowings resulted from returning a
higher amount of cash to shareholders (dividends and share
repurchases) while investing in capital expenditures to support our
strategic plan.
Total Cash Returned To Shareholders
As announced earlier today in a separate press release, on
November 30, 2016, our Board of
Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend of $0.21 per common share. This dividend payment of
approximately $9 million is payable
on December 30, 2016, to shareholders
of record as of the close of business on December 16, 2016.
Based on today's announcement and including year-to-date
activity for fiscal 2016, we will return $288 million to shareholders through our share
repurchase investments ($250 million)
and quarterly dividend payments ($38
million).
FISCAL Q4 2016 GUIDANCE
- Affirms Q4 guidance for adjusted income from continuing
operations in the range of $2.18 to
$2.23 per diluted share (non-GAAP), compared to adjusted
income from continuing operations of $2.01 per diluted share (non-GAAP) for the same
period last year
- Affirms Q4 guidance for comparable store sales in the range
of flattish to +2%
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016, we estimate adjusted
income from continuing operations will be in the range of
$2.18 to $2.23 per diluted share
(non-GAAP), compared to adjusted income from continuing operations
of $2.01 per diluted share (non-GAAP)
for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. This guidance is based on
estimated comparable store sales in the range of flattish to +2%
compared to a 0.7% comparable store sales increase in Q4 of fiscal
2015.
FISCAL 2016 GUIDANCE
- Increases guidance for fiscal 2016 adjusted income from
continuing operations to be in the range of $3.55 to $3.60 per diluted share (non-GAAP),
representing an 18% to 20% increase compared to fiscal 2015
adjusted income from continuing operations of $3.01 per diluted share (non-GAAP)
- Affirms guidance for fiscal 2016 comparable store sales
increase in the range of 1% to 2%
- Updates guidance for fiscal 2016 cash flow to $195 million
Based on operating results for the first three quarters and our
expectations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 noted above, we
now estimate fiscal 2016 adjusted income from continuing operations
to be in the range of $3.55 to $3.60
per diluted share (non-GAAP), compared to our previous guidance of
$3.45 to $3.55 per diluted share.
This compares to adjusted income from continuing operations of
$3.01 per diluted share (non-GAAP)
for fiscal 2015. This outlook is based on a comparable store sales
increase in the range of +1% to +2% and total sales up
slightly.
In addition, we now expect to complete the process of
terminating legacy pension plans during the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2016 with cash payouts totaling approximately $15 million. Including the impact of these
payouts, we now estimate full year cash flow of approximately
$195 million.

Rule 101 of Regulation G (17 CFR Part 244) and Item 10 of
Regulation S-K (17 CFR Part 229). These non-GAAP financial measures
exclude from the most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") all
costs associated with the Company's pension plans, as the Company
froze benefits and began termination activities for its pension
plans in 2015 with the intentions of completing the termination and
distributing all plan assets during 2016, which totaled $863 ($521,
net of tax). The pension costs encompass all items associated
with net periodic benefit costs, including curtailment and
settlement charges, and professional fees associated with the plan
and plan termination proceedings.

The above adjusted
selling and administrative expenses, adjusted selling and
administrative expense rate, adjusted operating profit, adjusted
operating profit rate, adjusted income tax expense, adjusted
effective income tax rate, adjusted income from continuing
operations, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per
share from continuing operations, and adjusted diluted earnings per
share are "non-GAAP financial measures" as that term is defined by
Rule 101 of Regulation G (17 CFR Part 244) and Item 10 of
Regulation S-K (17 CFR Part 229). These non-GAAP financial measures
exclude from the most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") all
costs associated with the Company's pension plans, as the Company
froze benefits and began termination activities for its pension
plans in 2015 with the intentions of completing the termination and
distributing all plan assets during 2016, which totaled $8,247
($4,983, net of tax). The pension costs encompass all items
associated with net periodic benefit costs, including curtailment
and settlement charges, and professional fees associated with the
plan and plan termination proceedings.

The above adjusted selling and administrative expenses, adjusted
selling and administrative expense rate, adjusted operating profit,
adjusted operating profit rate, adjusted income tax expense,
adjusted effective income tax rate, adjusted income from continuing
operations, adjusted net income, adjusted diluted earnings per
share from continuing operations, and adjusted diluted earnings per
share are "non-GAAP financial measures" as that term is defined by
Rule 101 of Regulation G (17 CFR Part 244) and Item 10 of
Regulation S-K (17 CFR Part 229). These non-GAAP financial measures
exclude from the most directly comparable financial measures
calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP: (1) a pretax
accrual of a loss contingency associated with merchandise-related
legal matters of $4,487 ($2,711, net of tax); and (2) all costs associated
with the Company's pension plans, as the Company froze benefits and
began termination activities for its pension plans in 2015 with the
intentions of completing the termination and distributing all plan
assets during 2016, which totaled $12,932 ($7,820,
net of tax). The pension costs encompass all items associated
with net periodic benefit costs, including curtailment and
settlement charges, and professional fees associated with the plan
and plan termination proceedings.
Our management believes that the disclosure of these non-GAAP
financial measures provides useful information to investors because
the non-GAAP financial measures present an alternative and more
relevant method for measuring our operating performance, excluding
special items included in the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures that management believes is more indicative of
our on-going operating results and financial condition. Our
management uses these non-GAAP financial measures, along with the
most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, in evaluating our
operating performance.
