The

consolidated statements of operations and changes in retained earnings for the
thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 1, 2008 and November 3,
2007 and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the
thirty-nine week periods ended November 1, 2008 and November 3, 2007
are unaudited. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to
present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows at November 1,
2008 and for all periods presented have been made.
Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America have been condensed or omitted, as permitted by Rule 10-01
of the Securities and Exchange Commissions Regulation S-X, Interim Financial
Statements. It is suggested that these condensed consolidated financial
statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes
thereto included in the Companys Annual Report on Form 10-K for the
fiscal year ended February 2, 2008. The results of operations for the
thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 1, 2008 are not
necessarily indicative of the operating results for the full fiscal year.

NOTE
2. New Accounting Standards
Adopted:
In September 2006, the Financial Accounting
Standards Board (FASB) issued Statement of Financial Accounting Standards
(SFAS) No. 157, Fair Value Measurements (SFAS 157). SFAS 157
defines the term fair value, establishes a framework for measuring it within
generally accepted accounting principles and expands disclosures about its
measurements. The Company adopted SFAS 157 on February 3, 2008. This adoption did not have a material effect
on the Companys financial statements.
Fair value disclosures are provided in Note 15.
In
March 2007, the Emerging Issues Task Force (EITF) reached a consensus on
Issue Number 06-10, Collateral Assignment Split-Dollar Life Insurance Arrangements
(EITF 06-10). EITF 06-10 provides guidance to help companies
determine whether a liability for the postretirement benefit associated with a
collateral assignment split-dollar life insurance arrangement should be
recorded in accordance with either SFAS No. 106, Employers Accounting
for Postretirement Benefits Other Than Pensions (if, in substance, a
postretirement benefit plan exists), or Accounting Principles Board Opinion No. 12
(if the arrangement is, in substance, an individual deferred compensation
contract). EITF 06-10 also provides guidance on how a company should
recognize and measure the asset in a collateral assignment split-dollar life
insurance contract. EITF 06-10 is effective for fiscal years beginning
after December 15, 2007, although early adoption is permitted. On February 3,
2008, the Company adopted EITF 06-10, which resulted in a $1,855 pretax
charge to retained earnings for its only existing collateral assignment
split-dollar life insurance arrangement an arrangement in place for a former
CEO who retired in fiscal 2003.
In June 2007, the FASB ratified EITF Issue Number 06-11, Accounting
for Income Tax Benefits of Dividends on Share-Based Payment Awards
(EITF 06-11). EITF 06-11 applies to share-based payment arrangements with
dividend protection features that entitle employees to receive (a) dividends
on equity-classified nonvested shares, (b) dividend equivalents on
equity-classified nonvested share units, or (c) payments equal to the
dividends paid on the underlying shares while an equity-classified share option
is outstanding, when those dividends or dividend equivalents are charged to
retained earnings under SFAS No. 123(R), Share-Based Payment, and result
in an income tax deduction for the employer. A consensus was reached that a
realized income tax benefit from dividends or dividend equivalents that are
charged to retained earnings and are paid to employees for equity-classified
non-vested equity shares, non-vested equity share units, and outstanding equity
share options should be recognized as an increase in additional paid-in
capital. EITF 06-11 is effective prospectively for the income tax benefits
that result from dividends on equity-classified employee share-based payment
awards that are declared in fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2007, and interim periods within those fiscal years. On February 3, 2008,
the Company adopted EITF 06-11, which did not have a material impact on its
consolidated Financial statements.
In October 2008
the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FSP FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value
of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active. This FSP
clarifies the application of SFAS 157 in a market that is not active. This FSP
shall be effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial
statements have not been issued. The adoption of this standard did not have a
material impact on the Companys financial statements.
5
Table of Contents
To
be adopted:
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations,
which replaces SFAS No. 141, Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141R,
among other things, establishes principles and requirements for how an acquirer
entity recognizes and measures in its financial statements the identifiable
assets acquired, the liabilities assumed and any controlling interests in the
acquired entity; recognizes and measures the goodwill acquired in the business
combination or a gain from a bargain purchase; and determines what information
to disclose to enable users of the financial statements to evaluate the nature
and financial effects of the business combination. Costs of the acquisition will
be recognized separately from the business combination. SFAS No. 141R
applies prospectively, except for taxes, to business combinations for which the
acquisition date is on or after the beginning of the first annual reporting
period on or after December 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating
the impact SFAS No. 141 will have on its consolidated financial statements
beginning in fiscal 2009.
In December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160,
Noncontrolling Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of
ARB No. 51. SFAS No. 160, among other things, provides guidance and
establishes amended accounting and reporting standards for a parent companys
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for
fiscal years beginning on or after December 15, 2008. The Company does not
expect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a material impact on its
financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
In February 2008, the FASB issued Staff
Position No. FAS 157-2 (FSP No.157-2), Effective Date of FASB
Statement No. 157, that defers the effective date of SFAS 157 for
one year for certain nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities. SFAS 157 is effective for certain
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact of SFAS No. 157 on its consolidated
financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
In March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161,
Disclosures about Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 161
expands the disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities, about an entitys derivative
instruments and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 is effective for
financial statements issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning
after November 15, 2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact
SFAS No. 161 will have on its consolidated financial statements beginning in
fiscal 2009.
In
June 2008, the FASB, issued Staff Position EITF 03-6-1 (FSP EITF 03-6-1), Determining
Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are
Participating Securities. FSP EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments
granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior
to vesting, and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in
computing earnings per share under the two-class method as described in SFAS No. 128,
Earnings per Share. Under the guidance of FSP EITF 03-6-1, unvested
share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or
dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and
shall be included in the computation of earnings-per-share pursuant to the
two-class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008 and interim periods within these fiscal years. All prior-period earnings
per share data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively. Early application is not permitted. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact FSP EITF 03-6-1 will have on its
consolidated financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
NOTE
3. Merchandise Inventories
Merchandise inventories are valued at the lower
of cost or market. Cost is determined by using the last-in, first-out (LIFO)
method. An actual valuation of inventory under the LIFO method can be made only
at the end of each fiscal year based on inventory and costs at that time.
Accordingly, interim LIFO calculations must be based on managements estimates
of expected fiscal year-end inventory levels and costs. If the first-in,
first-out (FIFO) method of costing inventory had been used by the Company,
inventory would have been $586,811 and $555,188 as of November 1, 2008 and
February 2, 2008, respectively. Inventory levels increased during the
current quarter reflecting seasonal product offerings.
The
Company provides estimates for inventory shrinkage based upon historical levels
and the results of its cycle counting program.
The
Company also provides for potentially excess and obsolete inventories based on
current inventory levels, the historical analysis of product sales and current
market conditions. The nature of the Companys inventory is such that the risk
of obsolescence is minimal and excess inventory has historically been returned
to the Companys vendors for credit. The Company records a provision when less
than full credit is expected from a vendor or when market is lower than
recorded costs. These provisions are revised, if necessary, on a quarterly
basis for adequacy. The Companys inventory is recorded net of provisions for
these matters which were $12,679 and $11,167 at November 1, 2008 and February 2,
2008, respectively.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the
Company recorded a $32,803 inventory write-down for the discontinuance and
planned exit of certain non-core merchandise adopted as one of the initial
steps in the Companys long-term strategic plan. The write-down
6
Table of Contents
reduced the carrying value of the discontinued
merchandise from $74,080 to $41,277. The carrying value of the discontinued
merchandise is evaluated quarterly as compared to the estimated sell through
that was utilized in determining the impairment. The inventory impairment was
recorded in cost of merchandise sales on the consolidated statement of
operations. The carrying value of the discontinued merchandise was $226 at November 1,
2008 and $8,612 at February 2, 2008.

During
the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company settled an outstanding
contractual obligation to purchase 29 properties that were previously leased
under a master operating lease for $117,121, including $803 of fees. The Company allocated the acquisition cost to
these properties based on relative fair values.
The acquisition cost was lower than the aggregate fair value for these
properties.
NOTE
5. Income Taxes
On February 4, 2007, the Company adopted the provisions of
FIN 48. In connection with the adoption, the Company recorded a net
decrease to retained earning of $155 and reclassified certain previously
recognized deferred tax attributes as FIN 48 liabilities. The amount of unrecognized tax benefits at February 4,
2007 was $7,126 including accrued interest of $734.
The company recognizes interest and penalties related to uncertain tax
positions in income tax expense. As of November 1,
2008 and February 2, 2008, we had approximately $1,263 and $1,172 of accrued
interest and penalties related to uncertain tax positions, respectively.
Included
in the unrecognized tax benefits of $2,741 and $3,847 at November 1, 2008
and February 2, 2008 was $1,744 and $2,244 of tax benefits, respectively, that
if recognized, would affect our annual effective tax rate. We are undergoing examinations of our tax
returns in certain jurisdictions. We
have uncertain liabilities of approximately $1,877 for which it is reasonably
possible that the amount will increase or decrease within the next twelve
months. However, based on the
uncertainties associated with settlements and the status of examination, it is
not possible to estimate the impact of the change.
The
Company and its subsidiaries file U.S., state and Puerto Rico income tax
returns in jurisdictions with varying statutes of limitations. The 2005 through 2007 tax years generally
remain subject to examination by federal and most state tax authorities. The Company and its subsidiaries have various
state income tax returns in the process of examination, appeals and settlement. In Puerto Rico, the 2004 through 2007 tax
years generally remain subject to examination by their respective tax
authorities.
Under FAS 109, the company is required to project the deferred tax
effects of expected year end temporary differences. Based on the projections, as of January 31,
2009 the company will have $29,632 federal net operating losses, $128,455 of
state losses and $0 of Puerto Rico losses.
As of February 2, 2008, the Company had $46,716 of federal losses,
$180,411 of state losses and $768 of Puerto Rico losses. The state losses will expire in various years
beginning in 2008.
The
temporary differences between the book and tax treatment of income and expenses
result in deferred tax assets and liabilities, which are included within the
consolidated balance sheets. The Company must assess the likelihood that any
recorded deferred tax assets will be recovered against future taxable income.
To the extent the Company believes that recovery is not more likely than not, a
valuation allowance must be established. In this regard when determining
whether or not a valuation allowance should be established, the Company
considers various tax planning strategies, including potential real estate
transactions to generate future taxable income. The Company had valuation
allowances for these matters of $5,649 and $4,077 as of November 1, 2008
and February 2, 2008, respectively.
NOTE
6. Discontinued Operations
In the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company
adopted its long-term strategic plan. One of the initial steps in this plan was
the
7
Table of Contents
identification of 31 low-return stores for
closure. The Company is accounting for these store closures in accordance with
the provisions of SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with Exit
or Disposal Activities and SFAS No. 144 Accounting for Impairment or
Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS 144). In accordance with SFAS No. 144,
discontinued operations for all periods presented reflect the operating results
for 11 of the 31 closed stores because the Company does not believe that the
customers of these stores are likely to become customers of other Pep Boys
stores due to geographical considerations. The operating results for the other
20 closed stores are included in continuing operations because the Company
believes that the customers of these stores are likely to become customers of
other Pep Boys stores that are in close proximity. Below is a summary of these discontinued
stores operations for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1,
2008 and November 3, 2007:

NOTE 8.
Sale-Leaseback Transactions
On March 25, 2008, the Company sold 18
owned properties to an independent third party. Net proceeds from this sale
were $62,542. Concurrent with the sale, the Company entered into agreements to
lease the properties back from the purchaser over a minimum lease term of
15 years. The Company classified these leases as operating leases. The two
master leases have an initial term of 15 years with four five-year renewal
options. The leases have yearly incremental rental increases that are 1.5% of
the prior years rentals. These leases
result in approximately $82,000 in future minimum rental payments during the
initial non-cancelable lease term. The second through the fourth renewal
options are at fair market rents. A $9 gain on the sale of these properties was
recognized immediately upon execution of the sale and a $26,809 gain was
deferred. The deferred gain is being recognized over 15 years.
On April 10, 2008, the Company sold 23
owned properties to an independent third party. Net proceeds from this sale
were $72,977. Concurrent with the sale, the Company entered into agreements to
lease the properties back from the purchaser over a minimum lease term of
15 years. The Company classified 22 of these leases as operating leases.
The leases have an initial term of 15 years with four five-year renewal
options. The leases have yearly incremental rental increases that are 1.5% of
the prior years rentals. These leases result in approximately $92,000 in
future minimum rental payments during the initial non-cancelable lease term.
The second through the fourth renewal options are at fair market rents. A
$5,522 gain on the sale of these properties was recognized immediately upon
execution of the sale and a $34,483 gain was deferred. The deferred gain is
being recognized over 15 years. The Company initially had continuing
involvement in one property and, accordingly, recorded $4,583 of the
transactions total net proceeds as a borrowing and as a financing activity in
the Statement of Cash Flows. During the second quarter of 2008, the Company
determined it no longer had continuing involvement with this property and
recorded the sale of this property as a sale-leaseback transaction, removing
the asset and related lease financing and recorded a $1,515 deferred gain.
On July 30, 2008, the Company sold 22
properties to an independent third party. Net proceeds from this sale were
$75,951. Concurrent with the sale, the Company entered into agreements to lease
the properties back from the purchaser over a minimum lease term of
15 years. The Company classified 21 of these leases as operating leases.
The leases have an initial term of 15 years with four five-year renewal
options. The leases have yearly incremental rental increases that are 1.5% of
the prior years rentals. These leases result in approximately $97,000 in
future minimum rental payments during the initial non-cancelable lease term.
The second through the fourth renewal options are at fair market rents. A
$2,124 gain on the sale of these properties was recognized immediately upon
execution of the sale and a $28,638 gain was deferred. The deferred gain is
being recognized over 15 years. The Company initially had continuing
involvement in one property and, accordingly, recorded $3,896 of the
transactions total net proceeds as a borrowing
9
Table of Contents
and as a financing activity in the Statement of
Cash Flows. During the third quarter of 2008, the Company determined it no
longer had continuing involvement with this property and recorded the sale of
this property as a sale-leaseback transaction, removing the asset and related
lease financing and recorded a $2,448 deferred gain.
The Company recognized $2,260 and $5,511 in Cost
of Merchandise Sales, and $736 and $1,794 in Costs of Service Revenue of the
deferred gain generated from the sale-leaseback transactions for the thirteen
weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008, respectively.
Of the 562 store locations operated by the

On
February 15, 2007, the Company amended its Senior Secured Term Loan to
reduce the interest rate from London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) plus 2.75%
to LIBOR plus 2.00%.
The Company used the proceeds from its March 25,
2008 sale-leaseback transaction and available cash to repay the $49,915 then
drawn on its line of credit agreement and to repurchase $20,965 principal
amount of its 7.50% Senior Subordinated Notes for $18,082. The gain on the retirement of debt is
included in interest expense.
As part of the April 10, 2008
sale-leaseback transaction, the Company determined that it has continuing
involvement in one property and recorded the $4,583 proceeds, net of execution
costs, as a borrowing in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting
Standards No. 13, Accounting for Leases. During the second quarter of
2008, the Company determined it no longer had continuing involvement with this
property. Accordingly, the Company recorded this property as a sale-leaseback,
retired the asset and related lease financing and recorded a $1,515 deferred
gain.
As part of the July 30, 2008 sale-leaseback
transaction, the Company determined that it has continuing involvement in one
property and has recorded the $3,896 proceeds, net of execution costs, as a
borrowing in accordance with Statement of Financial Accounting Standards No. 13,
Accounting for Leases. During the third quarter of 2008, the Company
determined it no longer had continuing involvement with this property.
Accordingly, the Company recorded this property as a sale-leaseback, retired
the asset and related lease financing and recorded a $2,448 deferred gain.
The Company had $231,223 of availability under
its line of credit agreement on November 1, 2008.

As of November 1, 2008 and November 3, 2007, respectively,
there were 1,339,000 and 3,397,000 outstanding options and restricted stock
units. Certain stock options were excluded from the calculation of diluted
earnings per share because their exercise prices were
11
Table of Contents
greater than the average market price of the common shares for the
periods then ended and therefore would be anti-dilutive. All such shares are
excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation for the thirteen weeks
ended November 1, 2008 and November 3, 2007, respectively, and for
the thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2007. The total numbers of such
shares excluded from the diluted earnings per share calculation are 1,540,000
for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008.

NOTE
13. Commitments and Contingencies
During the fourth quarter of
2006 and the first quarter of 2007, the Company was served with four separate
lawsuits brought by former associates employed in California, each of which
lawsuits purports to be a class action on behalf of all current and former
California store associates. One or more of the lawsuits claim that the
plaintiff was not paid for (i) overtime, (ii) accrued vacation time, (iii) all
time worked (i.e. off the clock work) and/or (iv) late or missed meal
periods or rest breaks. The plaintiffs also allege that the Company violated
certain record keeping requirements arising out of the foregoing alleged violations.
The lawsuits (i) claim these alleged practices are unfair business
practices, (ii) request back pay, restitution, penalties, interest and
attorney fees and (iii) request that the Company be enjoined from
committing further unfair business practices. The Company has reached a
settlement in principle regarding the accrued vacation time claims, which was
preliminarily approved by the court on December 1, 2008. The remaining purported class action claims
have been settled and have received final court approval and are expected to be
paid out in the fourth quarter of 2008.
The Company is also party to
various other actions and claims arising in the normal course of business.
The Company believes that
amounts accrued for awards or assessments in connection with all such matters,
which amounts were increased by $625 and $3,725 in the thirteen weeks and
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008, respectively, are adequate.
However, there exists a reasonable possibility of loss in excess of the amounts
accrued, the amount of which cannot currently be estimated. While the
Company does not believe that the amount of such excess loss could be material
to the Companys financial position, any such loss could have a material
adverse effect on the Companys results of operations in the period(s) during
which the underlying matters are resolved.

NOTE
15. Fair Value Measurements
The Company adopted SFAS No. 157,
(as impacted by FSP Nos. 157-1, 157-2, and 157-3) effective February 3,
2008, with respect to fair value measurements of (a) nonfinancial assets
and liabilities that are recognized or disclosed at fair value in the Companys
financial statements on a recurring basis (at least annually) and (b) all
financial assets and liabilities.
Under SFAS No. 157,
fair value is defined as the exit price, or the amount that would be received
to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction
between market participants as of the measurement date. SFAS No. 157 also
establishes a hierarchy for inputs used in measuring fair value that maximizes
the use of observable inputs and minimizes the use of unobservable inputs by
18
Table
of Contents
requiring that the most
observable inputs be used when available. Observable inputs are inputs market
participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based on
market data obtained from sources independent of the Company. Unobservable inputs
are inputs that reflect the Companys assumptions about the factors market
participants would use in valuing the asset or liability developed based upon
the best information available in the circumstances. The hierarchy is broken
down into three levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active
markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs include quoted
prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets. Level 3 inputs are
unobservable inputs for the asset or liability.
Categorization within the
valuation hierarchy is based upon the lowest level of input that is significant
to the fair value measurement.
Assets and
Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis:
Effective February 3,
2008, the application of fair value under SFAS No. 157 (as amended by FSP
Nos. 157-1,157-2, and 157-3) related to the Companys long-term investments and
interest rate swap agreements. These items were previously, and will continue
to be, recorded at fair value at each balance sheet date. The information in
the following paragraphs and tables primarily addresses matters relative to
these financial assets and liabilities.
Long-term investments:
Long-term investments
consist principally of U.S. Treasury securities which are valued at quoted
market prices. The Company considers its long-term investments to be valued
using Level 1 measurements.
Derivative liability:
The Company has an interest
rate swap which is within the scope of SFAS No. 133, Accounting for
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. The Company values this swap
using observable market data to discount projected cash flows and for credit
risk adjustments. The Company considers these to be Level 2 measurements.
The following table provides
information by level for assets and liabilities that are measured at fair
value, as defined by SFAS No. 157, on a recurring basis.

Assets and
Liabilities that are Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis:
During
the fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2008, the Company had no significant
measurements of assets or liabilities at fair value (as defined in SFAS No. 157)
on a nonrecurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition. As indicated
in Note 1, the aspects of SFAS No. 157 for which the effective date for
the Company was deferred under FSP No. 157-2 until February 1, 2009
relate to nonfinancial assets and liabilities that are measured at fair value,
but are recognized or disclosed at fair value on a nonrecurring basis. This
deferral applies to such items as nonfinancial assets and liabilities initially
measured at fair value in a business combination (but not measured at fair
value in subsequent periods) or nonfinancial long-lived asset groups measured
at fair value for an impairment assessment.

Item 2. Managements Discussion and Analysis of
Financial Condition and Results of Operations
The
discussion and analysis below should be read in conjunction with (i) the
condensed consolidated interim financial statements and the notes to such
financial statements included elsewhere in this Form 10-Q and (ii) the
consolidated financial statements and the notes to such financial statements
included in Item 8, Financial Statements and Supplementary Data of our Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2008.
OVERVIEW
The
Pep Boys-Manny, Moe & Jack is a leader in the automotive aftermarket
with 562 stores located throughout 35 states and Puerto Rico. All of our stores feature the
nationally-recognized Pep Boys brand name, established through more than 80
years of providing high-quality automotive merchandise and services, and are
company-owned, ensuring chain-wide consistency for our customers. We are the only national chain offering
automotive service, accessories, tires and parts under one roof, positioning us
to achieve our goal of becoming the automotive solutions provider of choice for
the value-oriented customer.
For
the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2008, our comparable sales (sales
generated by locations in operation during the same period) decreased by
10.4%. This decrease in comparable sales
was comprised of a 10.3% decrease in comparable merchandise sales and 11.0%
decrease in comparable service revenue.
Sales were adversely impacted by a challenging economic environment and
decreasing customer count. In addition, merchandise sales were negatively
affected by the discontinuance and planned exit of certain non-core
merchandise.
Our
net loss for the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2008 was $7,282,000 or a
$20,707,000 improvement over the net loss of $27,990,000 reported in the
thirteen weeks ended November 3, 2007.
The prior year quarter included, on a pre-tax basis, a $32,803,000 inventory impairment charge, a
$10,963,000 asset impairment charge, $3,100,000 in executive severance costs
and $6,250,000 in legal settlements and reserves, offset by a $3,900,000
benefit on a company-owned life insurance policy. Excluding these items,
profitability declined primarily due to lower gross profit dollars as a result
of lower sales partially offset by lower selling, general and administrative
and interest expenses.
For
the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008, our comparable net sales
decreased 7.8% with comparable merchandise sales decreasing 8.1% and service
revenue decreasing 6.3%. Net earnings
for these thirty-nine weeks were $2,838,000 versus a net loss of $20,636,000 in
the same period of fiscal 2007. The improvement in profitability was driven by
the same factors as discussed above.
The
following discussion explains the significant developments affecting our
financial condition and material changes in our results of operations for the
thirteen weeks and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008. We recommend that you read the audited
consolidated financial statements, footnotes and Managements Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in our
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2,
2008.
LIQUIDITY
AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Our
cash requirements arise principally from the purchase of inventory and capital
expenditures related to existing stores, offices, warehouses and information
systems. The capital expenditures for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1,
2008 were used primarily to purchase 29 properties for $117,121,000 that were
previously leased under a master operating lease and for store capital
maintenance and improvements. During the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1,
2008, we invested approximately $22,653,000 in store capital maintenance and
improvements versus the $33,074,000 invested during the same period for fiscal
2007. We estimate that capital expenditures related to existing stores,
warehouses and offices and information systems for the remaining three months
of fiscal 2008 will be approximately $10,000,000.
During
the first quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company completed two separate
sale-leaseback transactions. The proceeds from these transactions were
used to repay $49,915,000 then drawn under our revolving line of credit
agreement, to repurchase $20,965,000 principal amount of our 7.50% Senior
Subordinated Notes for $18,082,000 and to pay $783,000 in transaction
costs. The remaining $66,739,000 was invested in cash and cash
equivalents.
During
the second quarter of fiscal 2008, the Company completed a sale-leaseback
transaction for 22 stores. The $75,951,000 net proceeds were used to finance,
together with $41,170,000 of cash on hand, the purchase of the 29 properties
for $117,121,000 that were previously leased under a master operating lease.
We
anticipate that our net cash provided by operating activities and funds
available under our existing revolving credit facility will exceed our
principal cash requirements for capital expenditures and inventory purchases
for the next 12 months.
Working
Capital increased from $195,343,000 at February 2, 2008 to $207,166,000 at
November 1, 2008. At November 1, 2008, we had stockholders equity of
$465,865,000 and long-term debt, net of current maturities, of $330,535,000. Our
long-term debt was approximately 42% of our total capitalization at November 1,
2008 and 46% at February 2, 2008.
20
Table
of Contents
As
of November 1, 2008, we had undrawn availability under our revolving
credit facility of $231,223,000. The Companys current credit facility expires
on December 9, 2009. As of December 8, 2008, we have secured commitments
from a syndicate led by Bank of America for a $300,000,000 replacement
facility. This facility is expected to
close, subject to the satisfaction of customary closing conditions, before our
fiscal year ends on January 31, 2009.
Except
as noted above, we have no material debt maturities due within the next twelve
months.
During
the third quarter of 2008, we amended our vendor financing program to increase
the availability to $40,000,000 reflecting current usage. Under this program,
the Companys factor makes accelerated and discounted payments to our vendors
and the Company, in turn, makes its regularly scheduled full vendor payments to
the factor. As of November 1, 2008, the Company had an outstanding balance
of $38,316,000 under these programs, classified as trade payable program
liability in the consolidated balance sheet.
DISCONTINUED
OPERATIONS
In
the third quarter of fiscal 2007, we adopted our long-term strategic plan. One
of the initial steps in this plan was the identification of 31 low-return
stores for closure. We are accounting for these store closures in accordance
with the provisions of SFAS No. 146 Accounting for Costs Associated with
Exit or Disposal Activities and SFAS No. 144, Accounting for Impairment
or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets (SFAS No. 144). In accordance with
SFAS No. 144, our discontinued operations for all periods presented
reflect the operating results for 11 of the 31 closed stores because we do not
believe that the customers of these stores are likely to become customers of
other Pep Boys stores due to geographical considerations. The operating results
for the other 20 closed stores are included in continuing operations because we
believe that the customers of these stores are likely to become customers of
other Pep Boys stores that are in close proximity.

Total
revenue for the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2008 decreased 12.2%,
with a 10.4% comparable revenue decrease resulting in part from the exiting of
certain non-core merchandise categories and a reduction in customer traffic
versus the same period last year. The reduction in revenues and customer count
was also adversely affected by the challenging economic environment, including
a decline in miles driven in the current year as compared to the prior year.
Comparable merchandise sales decreased 10.3% and comparable service revenues
decreased 11.0%.
Gross
profit as a percentage of merchandise sales increased from 20.1% in fiscal 2007
to 29.1% or $23,791,000 in fiscal 2008. The prior year third quarter included
an inventory impairment charge of $32,803,000 and a $5,350,000 asset impairment
charge resulting from the closure of 20 closed stores. Excluding these
adjustments, gross profit as a percent of merchandise sales increased from
28.9% in fiscal 2007 to 29.1% in the current year. Our product gross margins
improved by 160 basis points to 45.3% which were mostly offset by increased
occupancy costs of 130 basis points as a result of increased rental obligations
stemming from the sale-leaseback transactions. In dollars, merchandise gross
profit decreased $14,362,000 or 11.5% primarily due to reduced merchandise
sales
Gross
profit from service revenue declined as a percentage of service revenue to 5.4
% from 11.7% in fiscal 2007. Gross profit from service revenue declined by
59.8% or $6,873,000 from fiscal 2007. The prior year included a $1,849,000
asset impairment charge related to the closure of 20 closed stores. Excluding
this adjustment, gross profit from service revenue declined by $8,722,000. As a
percentage of service revenues, gross margin declined from 13.6% in the prior
year to 5.4% in fiscal year 2008 primarily due to a $12,688,000 decline in
service revenue as discussed above, partly offset by lower service payroll and
related expenses. The decline in sales volume resulted in reduced leverage of
fixed expenses such as occupancy costs
resulting in the margin rate declining to 5.4% in the current year third
quarter.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of total revenues
increased to 25.8% from 25.3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2007. In dollars, selling, general and
administrative expenses decreased $13,723,000 or 10.3%. This decrease in dollars was the result of
expense control initiatives, with major reductions in compensation and
compensation related benefits of $8,048,000 and lower legal costs of $6,539,000
partially offset by increased gross media expense of $1,305,000 and information
system costs of $1,442,000 as compared to the same period in the prior year.
Interest
expense decreased $4,403,000 to $7,098,000 in the thirteen weeks ended November 1,
2008 from the $11,501,000 recorded in the thirteen weeks ended November 3,
2007 due to reduced debt levels.
Our
income tax benefit for third quarter of fiscal 2008 was $4,775,000 or an
effective rate of 40.4%. This compares
to an income tax benefit in third quarter of fiscal 2007 of $20,677,000 or an
effective rate of 44.4%.
The
third quarter 2008 net loss from discontinued operations was $228,000 compared
to a net loss of $2,059,000 for fiscal 2007. Fiscal 2007s loss resulted
primarily from the $3,764,000 asset impairment charge associated with the 11
stores closed in the fourth quarter.
Net
loss of $7,282,000 for the third quarter
of fiscal 2008 improved $20,708,000 from the third quarter of fiscal 2007
primarily as a result of the absence of
inventory and asset impairment charges in the fiscal 2008, reduced
selling, general and administrative expenses, and lower interest expense, which offset lower
gross margins due to decreased revenues.

Total
revenues for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2008 decreased 9.8% with a
7.8% comparable revenue decrease, resulting primarily from a decline in retail
and commercial merchandise sales compared to the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal
2007. Comparable merchandise sales decreased 8.1% and comparable service
revenue decreased 6.3%. The decline in
merchandise sales resulted primarily from the exiting of certain non-core
merchandise categories and a reduction in customer traffic. The reduction in
revenues and customer count was also adversely affected by the challenging
economic environment, including a decline in miles driven in the current year
as compared to the prior year.
Gross
profit from merchandise as a percentage of merchandise sales was 29.5% for the first
thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2008 and 26.6% for fiscal 2007. In dollars, gross profit from merchandise
sales decreased $505,000 or 0.1%. The increase, as a percent of merchandise
sales, resulted primarily from the absence in the current year of inventory and
asset impairment charges of $32,803,000 and $5,350,000, respectively. Excluding
these charges in the prior year, gross profit as a percent of merchandise sales
remained flat at 29.5% year over year.
Our
gross profit from service revenue as a percentage of service revenues decreased
to 8.1% from 11.9% in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2007. In dollars, for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1,
2008, gross profit from service revenue was $21,946,000 or $13,482,000 less
than the $35,428,000 recorded in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 3,
2007. This 38.1% decrease resulted primarily from the following: a declining
revenue base, a semi-fixed payroll and benefits cost, and a fixed occupancy
cost.
Selling,
general and administrative expenses as a percentage of total revenues increased
from 24.2% in the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2007 to 24.7% in the same
period of fiscal 2008. In dollars, this
expense decreased $31,056,000 or 7.9%.
This decrease resulted from a $19,161,000 or 20.0% reduction in general
and administrative expenses due to decreased payroll and lower legal settlement
expenses partially offset by increased information systems costs related to
outsourcing our IT center. In addition, the
Company reduced employee benefits costs, incurred lower media expense and
reduced store selling expenses.

Net
gains from disposition of assets increased $7,726,000 to $9,555,000 in the
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008 from $1,829,000 in fiscal year
2007. The increase resulted principally
from three sale-leaseback transactions completed during fiscal 2008.
Interest
expense of $18,977,000 for the first thirty-nine weeks of fiscal 2008 was
$17,511,000 less than the $36,488,000 recorded in the first thirty-nine weeks
of fiscal 2007 due to a reduced debt level and gains resulting from debt
repurchases.
Income
tax expense was $185,000 or an effective rate of 4.4% in the thirty-nine weeks
ended November 1, 2008 as compared to an income tax benefit of $16,293,000
in the thirty-nine weeks ended November 3, 2007. The second quarter of fiscal 2008 included a
one-time benefit of recording a $2,400,000 deferred tax asset as a result of a June 2007
state tax law change.
Net
earnings improved to $2,838,000 in the current thirty-nine weeks as compared to
a net loss of $20,636,000 in the prior year.
This $23,474,000 improvement resulted primarily from the absence of an
inventory and asset impairment charge in fiscal 2008, reduced selling, general
and administrative expenses, real estate gains generated from sale-leaseback
transactions, lower interest expense, and a one-time out of period income tax
benefit, which offset lower gross margins due to decreased revenues.
INDUSTRY
COMPARISON
We
operate in the U.S. automotive aftermarket, which has two general competitive
arenas: Do-It-For-Me (DIFM) (service labor, installed merchandise and tires)
market and the Do-It-Yourself (DIY) (retail merchandise) market. Generally,
the specialized automotive retailers focus on either the DIY or DIFM areas
of the business. We believe that our operation in both the DIY and DIFM
areas of the business positively differentiates us from most of our
competitors. Although we manage our store performance at a store level in
aggregation, we believe that the following presentation shows a representative
comparison against competitors within the two sales arenas. We compete in the DIY
area of the business through our retail sales floor and commercial sales
business (Retail Sales). Our Service Center Business (labor and installed
merchandise and tires) competes in the DIFM area of the industry.
The

business:

NEW
ACCOUNTING STANDARDS TO BE ADOPTED
In December 2007, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB)
issued SFAS No. 141R, Business Combinations, which replaces SFAS No. 141,
Business Combinations. SFAS No. 141R, among other things, establishes
principles and requirements for how an acquirer entity recognizes and measures
in its financial statements the identifiable assets acquired, the liabilities
assumed and any controlling interests in the acquired entity; recognizes and
measures the goodwill acquired in the business combination or a gain from a
bargain purchase; and determines what information to disclose to enable users
of the financial statements to evaluate the nature and financial effects of the
business combination. Costs of the acquisition will be recognized separately
from the business combination. SFAS No. 141R applies prospectively, except
for taxes, to business combinations for which the acquisition date is on or
after the beginning of the first annual reporting period on or after December 15,
2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 141
will have on its consolidated financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
In
December 2007, the FASB issued SFAS No. 160, Noncontrolling
Interests in Consolidated Financial Statementsan amendment of ARB No. 51.
SFAS No. 160, among other things, provides guidance and establishes
amended accounting and reporting standards for a parent companys
noncontrolling interest in a subsidiary. SFAS No. 160 is effective for
fiscal years beginning on or after
December 15,
2008. The Company does not expect the adoption of SFAS No. 160 to have a
material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash
flows.
24
Table of Contents
In
February 2008, the FASB issued Staff Position No. FAS 157-2 (FSP
No.157-2), Effective Date of FASB Statement No. 157, that defers the
effective date of SFAS 157 for one year for certain nonfinancial assets
and nonfinancial liabilities. SFAS 157 is effective for certain
nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities for financial statements
issued for fiscal years beginning after November 15, 2008. The Company is
currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 157 will have on its consolidated
financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
In
March 2008, the FASB issued SFAS No. 161, Disclosures about
Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities. SFAS No. 161 expands the
disclosure requirements in SFAS No. 133, Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities, about an entitys derivative instruments
and hedging activities. SFAS No. 161 is effective for financial statements
issued for fiscal years and interim periods beginning after November 15,
2008. The Company is currently evaluating the impact SFAS No. 161 will
have on its consolidated financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
In
June 2008, the FASB, issued Staff Position EITF 03-6-1 (FSP EITF 03-6-1), Determining
Whether Instruments Granted in Share-Based Payment Transactions Are
Participating Securities. FSP EITF 03-6-1 addresses whether instruments
granted in share-based payment transactions are participating securities prior
to vesting, and therefore need to be included in the earnings allocation in
computing earnings per share under the two-class method as described in SFAS No. 128,
Earnings per Share. Under the guidance of FSP EITF 03-6-1, unvested
share-based payment awards that contain nonforfeitable rights to dividends or
dividend equivalents (whether paid or unpaid) are participating securities and
shall be included in the computation of earnings-per-share pursuant to the
two-class method. FSP EITF 03-6-1 is
effective for financial statements issued for fiscal years beginning after December 15,
2008 and interim periods within these fiscal years. All prior-period earnings
per share data presented shall be adjusted retrospectively. Early application is not permitted. The
Company is currently evaluating the impact FSP EITF 03-6-1 will have on its
consolidated financial statements beginning in fiscal 2009.
In October 2008
the FASB issued FASB Staff Position FSP FAS 157-3, Determining the Fair Value
of a Financial Asset When the Market for That Asset Is Not Active. This FSP
clarifies the application SFAS 157 in a market that is not active. This FSP
shall be effective upon issuance, including prior periods for which financial
statements have not been issued. The adoption of this standard did not have a
material impact on the Companys financial statement.
CRITICAL
ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
Managements
Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
discusses our condensed consolidated financial statements, which have been
prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the
United States of America. The preparation of these financial statements
requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported
amounts of assets and liabilities and the disclosure of contingent assets and
liabilities at the date of the condensed consolidated financial statements and
the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period.
Additionally, the Company estimates its interim product gross margins in
accordance with Accounting Principles Bulletin No. 28, Interim Financial
Reporting.
On
an on-going basis, we evaluate our estimates and judgments, including those
related to customer incentives, product returns and warranty obligations, bad
debts, inventories, income taxes, financing operations, restructuring costs,
retirement benefits, risk participation agreements and contingencies and
litigation. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and on
various other factors that are believed to be reasonable under the
circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about
the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent
from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under
different assumptions or conditions. For a detailed discussion of significant
accounting policies that may involve a higher degree of judgment or complexity,
refer to Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates as reported in our Form
10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2008, which disclosures are
hereby incorporated by reference.
FORWARD-LOOKING
STATEMENTS
Certain
statements contained herein constitute forward-looking statements within the
meaning of The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The words guidance,

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures
About Market Risk
The
Companys primary market risk exposure with regard to financial instruments is
to changes in interest rates. Pursuant to the terms of its revolving credit
agreement, changes in LIBOR could affect the rates at which the Company could
borrow funds thereunder. At November 1, 2008, the Company had borrowings
of $520,000 under this facility. Additionally, the Company has a $152,712,000
Senior Secured Term Loan facility that bears interest at LIBOR plus 2.0%.
The Company has an interest rate swap for a
notional amount of $145,000,000, which is designated as a cash flow hedge on
its $152,712,000 Senior Secured Term Loan. The Company documented that this
swap met the requirements of SFAS No. 133 for hedge accounting on April 9,
2007, and has since recorded the effective portion of the change in fair value
through Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss.
The fair value of the interest rate swap was
$7,953,000 and $10,985,000 payable at November 1, 2008 and February 2,
2008 respectively. Of the net $3,032,000 increase in fair value during the
thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008, $3,032,000 ($1,906,000 net of
tax) was included in Accumulated Other Comprehensive Loss on the condensed
consolidated balance sheet.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures.
EVALUATION
OF DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Our
disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15 of the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (the Exchange Act)) are designed to ensure
that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to
our management, including our principal executive and principal financial
officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required
disclosure. The Companys management,
with the participation of the Companys chief executive officer and chief
financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of the Companys disclosure
controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report.
Based on that evaluation, the chief executive officer and chief financial
officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of
the period covered by this report were not functioning effectively to provide
reasonable assurance that the information required to be disclosed by the
Company in reports filed under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded,
processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SECs
rules and forms due to the fact that there was a material weakness in our
internal control over financial reporting (which is a subset of disclosure
controls and procedures) as described below.
CHANGES
IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING
During
the third quarter of fiscal 2007, the Company determined it had a material
weakness in its internal control over financial reporting related to its
financial close and reporting process. Since that time, the Company has
continued to implement changes designed to enhance the effectiveness of its
financial close and reporting process including (i) hiring staff and
providing additional accounting research resources, (ii) improving process
documentation and (iii) improving the review process by more senior
accounting personnel. However, as of November 1, 2008, the Company
believes that its ongoing efforts to hire and train additional staff are not
yet complete. Accordingly, the Company cannot provide its constituents with
reasonable assurance that the material weakness in the financial close and
reporting process has been remediated. The Company has retained experienced
accounting consultants, other than the Companys independent registered public
accounting firm, with relevant accounting experience, skills and knowledge, to
provide advice to the Companys management in connection with the fiscal 2008
financial reporting process.
Other than described above, no change in the
Companys internal control over financial reporting occurred during the fiscal
quarter covered by this report that has materially affected, or is reasonably
likely to materially affect, the Companys internal control over financial
reporting.
Item 5. Other Information
None.
PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
26
Table of Contents
During the fourth quarter of
2006 and the first quarter of 2007, the Company was served with four separate
lawsuits brought by former associates employed in California, each of which
lawsuits purports to be a class action on behalf of all current and former
California store associates. One or more of the lawsuits claim that the
plaintiff was not paid for (i) overtime, (ii) accrued vacation time, (iii) all
time worked (i.e. off the clock work) and/or (iv) late or missed meal
periods or rest breaks. The plaintiffs also allege that the Company violated
certain record keeping requirements arising out of the foregoing alleged
violations. The lawsuits (i) claim these alleged practices are unfair
business practices, (ii) request back pay, restitution, penalties,
interest and attorney fees and (iii) request that the Company be enjoined
from committing further unfair business practices. The Company has
reached a settlement in principle regarding the accrued vacation time claims,
which was preliminarily approved by the court on December 1, 2008. The remaining purported class action claims
have been settled and have received final court approval and are expected to be
paid out in the fourth quarter of 2008.
The Company is also party to
various other actions and claims arising in the normal course of business.
The Company believes that
amounts accrued for awards or assessments in connection with all such matters,
which amounts were increased by $625,000 and $3,725,000 in the thirteen weeks
and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2008, respectively, are adequate.
However, there exists a reasonable possibility of loss in excess of the amounts
accrued, the amount of which cannot currently be estimated. While the
Company does not believe that the amount of such excess loss could be material
to the Companys financial position, any such loss could have a material
adverse effect on the Companys results of operations in the period(s) during
which the underlying matters are resolved.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There
have been no changes to the risks described in the Companys previously filed
Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2,
2008.
