Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. Announces First Quarter Fiscal Year 2024

Financial Results

IRVINE, California – August 2, 2023 – Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BOOT) today announced its financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended July 1, 2023. A Supplemental Financial Presentation is available at investor.bootbarn.com.

For the quarter ended July 1, 2023:

Net sales increased 4.9% over the prior-year period to $383.7 million, cycling 19.4% net sales growth in the prior-year period.
Same store sales decreased 2.9% compared to the prior-year period, cycling 10.0% same store sales growth in the prior-year period. The 2.9% decrease in consolidated same store sales is comprised of a decrease in retail store same store sales of 1.8% and a decrease in e-commerce same store sales of 10.8%.
Net income was $34.3 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to $39.3 million, or $1.29 per diluted share in the prior-year period. Net income per diluted share in the current-year and prior-year period includes an approximately $0.02 and $0.03 per share benefit, respectively, primarily due to income tax accounting for share-based compensation. Excluding the tax benefits, net income per diluted share was $1.11 and $1.26 in the current-year and prior-year period, respectively.
The Company opened 16 new stores, bringing its total store count to 361.

Jim Conroy, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented “I am quite pleased with the results of the quarter as we exceeded our quarterly guidance across nearly every measure. Total revenue continued to grow, driven by the performance of new stores. From a same store sales growth perspective, we saw a modest 2.9% decline despite cycling outsized comp sales growth in the first quarter for each of the past two years. Once again, we were able to expand our merchandise margin through a significant increase in the penetration of our margin enhancing exclusive brands which reached 38% of sales for the quarter. Earnings also surpassed our expectations, driven by a steadily improving retail store same store sales trend which turned positive in June and remained positive in July. While uncertainty in the macro environment persists, we are pleased with the positive momentum we have seen in the business.”

Operating Results for the First Quarter Ended July 1, 2023 Compared to the First Quarter Ended June 25, 2022

Net sales increased 4.9% to $383.7 million from $365.9 million in the prior-year period. Consolidated same store sales decreased 2.9% with retail store same store sales decreasing 1.8% and e-commerce same store sales decreasing 10.8%. The increase in net sales was the result of the incremental sales from new stores opened over the past twelve months, partially offset by the decrease in consolidated same store sales. Higher average unit retail prices, driven in part by inflation, contributed to the increase in net sales.
Gross profit was $142.0 million, or 37.0% of net sales, compared to $137.8 million, or 37.7% of net sales, in the prior-year period. Gross profit increased primarily due to higher sales. The decrease in gross profit rate of 70 basis points was driven primarily by 160 basis points of deleverage in buying, occupancy and distribution center costs partially offset by a 90 basis-point increase in merchandise margin rate. The increase in merchandise margin rate was driven by 80 basis points of product margin expansion resulting primarily from growth in exclusive brand penetration and a 10 basis-point tailwind from lower freight expense as a percentage of net sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses were $95.7 million, or 24.9% of net sales, compared to $85.4 million, or 23.3% of net sales, in the prior-year period. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses as compared to the prior-year period was primarily a result of higher store payroll and store-related expenses associated with operating 50 new stores and corporate overhead costs in the current year. Selling, general and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales increased by 160 basis points primarily as a result of higher payroll and overhead costs.
Income from operations decreased $6.2 million to $46.2 million, or 12.1% of net sales, compared to $52.4 million, or 14.3% of net sales, in the prior-year period, primarily due to the factors noted above.

1


Net income was $34.3 million, or $1.13 per diluted share, compared to net income of $39.3 million, or $1.29 per diluted share in the prior-year period. The decrease in net income is primarily attributable to the factors noted above. Net income per diluted share in the current-year and prior-year period includes approximately $0.02 and $0.03 per share benefit, respectively, primarily due to income tax accounting for share-based compensation. Excluding the tax benefits, net income per diluted share was $1.11 and $1.26 in the current-year and prior-year period, respectively.

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to our current expectations and projections relating to, by way of example and without limitation, our financial condition, liquidity, profitability, results of operations, margins, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, business and industry. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “plan“, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “might”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “can have”, “likely”, “outlook” and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events, but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this press release, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences; the Company’s ability to effectively execute on its growth strategy; and the Company’s failure to maintain and enhance its strong brand image, to compete effectively, to maintain good relationships with its key suppliers, and to improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as

required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this press release after the date of this press release.

1 Important Information Forward-Looking Statements This presentation contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this presentation are forward-looking statements. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they generally include words such as "anticipate," "estimate," "expect," "project," "plan,“ "intend," "believe," “outlook” and other words of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this presentation, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions or changes in consumer preferences; the Company’s ability to effectively execute on its growth strategy; the Company’s failure to maintain and enhance its strong brand image, to compete effectively, to maintain good relationships with its key suppliers, and to improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this presentation after the date of this presentation. Industry and Market Information Statements in this presentation concerning our industry and the markets in which we operate, including our general expectations and competitive position, business opportunity and market size, growth and share, are based on information from independent industry organizations and other third-party sources, data from our internal research and management estimates. Management estimates are derived from publicly available information and the information and data referred to above and are based on assumptions and calculations made by us based upon our interpretation of such information and data. The information and data referred to above are imprecise and may prove to be inaccurate because the information cannot always be verified with complete certainty due to the limitations on the availability and reliability of raw data, the voluntary nature of the data gathering process and other limitations and uncertainties. As a result, please be aware that the data and statistical information in this presentation may differ from information provided by our competitors or from information found in current or future studies conducted by market research institutes, consultancy firms or independent sources. Recent Developments Our business and opportunities for growth depend on consumer discretionary spending, and as such, our results are particularly sensitive to economic conditions and consumer confidence. Inflation and other challenges affecting the global economy could impact our operations and will depend on future developments, which are uncertain. These and other effects make it more challenging for us to estimate the future performance of our business, particularly over the near-to-medium term. For further discussion of the uncertainties and business risks affecting the Company, see Item 1A, Risk Factors, of our Fiscal 2023 10-K.

In total, over 140,000 evaluations were collected. The awarded retailers each received on average 100 evaluations from customers. • The survey was conducted on retailers from 39 categories, providing results for a broad-spectrum of customer experiences in traditional retail. For each category, only retailers present in at least two census regions have been included in the list (exceptions made for retailers with 600 or more locations). • In total, the survey took an average of 9-11 minutes to complete, and the field period ran from February to March 2023. • The final assessment and rankings were based on the Likelihood of Recommendation (50% of the final score) and five evaluation criteria (also 50% of the final score): Products: measures the quality, price, range and variety of products offered in-store. Customer Service: measures the friendliness, helpfulness, and availability of employees in-store. Atmosphere: measures the general atmosphere, lighting/illumination, music, cleanliness of stores. Accessibility: measures the parking availability, store hours, convenience of store location.
