Movado Group, Inc. Announces Third Quarter Results
Third Quarter Fiscal 2012
- Net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 increased 16.0% to
$142.6 million compared to$123.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2011 driven by growth in every brand category. On a constant dollar basis, net sales increased 13.3% compared to the prior year period. - Gross profit in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 was
$81.0 million , or 56.8% of sales, compared to$68.9 million , or 56.0% of sales, in the third quarter last year. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of a favorable shift in channel and product mix, as well as leverage gained on certain fixed costs. This improvement was partially offset by the unfavorable effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. - Operating expenses increased
$11.5 million , or 22.8%, to$61.9 million compared to$50.4 million in the third quarter last year. This increase was primarily the result of higher compensation and benefits expense resulting from salary increases, the reinstatement of certain employee benefits and performance-based compensation and the unfavorable effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Additionally, the Company recorded a non-recurring benefit of$4.3 million , or$0.17 per diluted share, in the prior year period resulting from the reversal of a previously recorded liability for a retirement agreement with the Company's late Chairman. (See attached table for reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.) There were no special items in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. - Operating income increased to
$19.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to operating income of$18.5 million in the same period last year. Excluding the aforementioned liability reversal, adjusted operating income for the third quarter of the prior year was$14.2 million . (See attached table for reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.) There were no special items in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. - The Company recorded a tax provision in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 of
$2.1 million , which equates to an effective tax rate of 11.0%. The effective tax rate for the quarter was impacted by the application of guidelines related to accounting for income taxes in interim periods. - Both income from continuing operations and net income were
$16.4 million , or$0.65 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 compared to income from continuing operations and net income of$17.1 million , or$0.69 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. Excluding the aforementioned liability reversal, both adjusted income from continuing operations and adjusted net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2011 was$12.8 million , or$0.52 per diluted share. (See attached table for reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP measures.) There were no special items in the third quarter of fiscal 2012. - EBITDA in the third quarter of fiscal 2012 increased to

$345.7 million compared to$281.2 million in the same period of fiscal 2011 driven by growth in every brand category. On a constant dollar basis, net sales increased by 18.8% compared to the prior year period. - Gross profit was
$190.6 million , or 55.1% of sales, compared to$151.8 million , or 54.0% of sales in the same period last year. The increase in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of a favorable shift in channel and product mix, as well as leverage gained on certain fixed costs.

$24.2 million , or 17.2%, to$164.9 million versus$140.7 million in the same period last year. This increase was primarily the result of higher marketing expense to drive sales growth, higher compensation and benefits expense resulting from salary increases, the reinstatement of certain employee benefits and performance-based compensation and the unfavorable effect of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. Additionally, the Company recorded a non-recurring benefit of$4.3 million , or$0.17 per diluted share, in the prior year third quarter resulting from the reversal of a previously recorded liability for a retirement agreement with the Company's late Chairman. - Operating income increased to
$25.7 million in the nine-month period of fiscal 2012 compared to operating income of$11.2 million in the same period last year.
