Vince Holding Corp. Reports Second Quarter 2021 Results

Vince Holding Corp. (NYSE:VNCE), a leading global contemporary group (“Vince” or the “Company”), today reported its financial results for the second quarter 2021 ended July 31, 2021.

In this press release, the Company is presenting its historical financial results in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as well as on an "adjusted" basis. Adjusted results presented in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for more information about the Company's use of non-GAAP financial measures and Exhibit 3 to this press release for a reconciliation of GAAP measures to such non-GAAP measures.

Highlights for the second quarter ended July 31, 2021:

  • Net sales increased 112.5% to $78.7 million as compared to $37.0 million in the same period last year reflecting a 108.5% increase in Vince brand sales and a 139.4% increase in Rebecca Taylor and Parker.
  • Gross margin rate was 45.0% compared to 36.0% in the same period last year.
  • Income from operations was $2.6 million compared to a loss from operations of $14.0 million in the same period last year.
  • Net loss was $0.6 million or $0.05 per share compared to a net loss of $15.1 million or $1.28 per share in the same period last year.

Jack Schwefel, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased with our performance in the quarter, particularly with the Vince brand approaching pre-pandemic levels driven by strength in our direct-to-consumer business. The brand continues to resonate with both women and men with sophisticated, high-quality assortments. Going forward, we will continue to focus on accelerating direct-to-consumer as well as our growth strategies of building out our ecommerce capabilities, strengthening brand awareness through marketing, and accelerating growth in men’s. At Rebecca Taylor, we remain encouraged by the long-term potential we see for this brand as we continue to leverage the same strategies that made the Vince brand turnaround so successful.”

For the second quarter ended July 31, 2021:

  • Total Company net sales increased 112.5% to $78.7 million compared to $37.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
  • Gross profit was $35.4 million, or 45.0% of net sales, compared to gross profit of $13.3 million, or 36.0% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in the gross margin rate was primarily due to channel mix, lower year-over-year adjustments to inventory reserves, and lower promotional activity in the direct-to-consumer channel.
  • Selling, general, and administrative expenses, were $32.7 million, or 41.6% of sales, compared to $27.3 million, or 73.9% of sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The increase in SG&A dollars was primarily the result of higher payroll and compensation expense, increased investments in marketing as well as higher consulting and other third-party costs.
  • Income from operations was $2.6 million compared to a loss from operations of $14.0 million in the same period last year.
  • Income tax expense was $1.3 million as a result of the non-cash deferred tax expense created by the current period amortization of indefinite-lived goodwill and intangible assets for tax but not for book purposes
  • Net loss was $0.6 million or $0.05 per share compared to a net loss of $15.1 million or $1.28 per share in the same period last year.
  • The Company ended the quarter with 78 company-operated Vince and Rebecca Taylor stores, a net increase of 10 stores since the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

  • Direct-to-consumer segment sales increased 112.5% to $32.0 million compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020.

* Unallocated corporate expenses are related to the Vince brand and are comprised of selling, general and administrative expenses attributable to corporate and administrative activities (such as marketing, design, finance, information technology, legal and human resource departments), and other charges that are not directly attributable to the Company’s Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments.

Balance Sheet

At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021, total borrowings under the Company’s debt agreements totaled $87.3 million and the Company had $34.4 million of excess availability under its revolving credit facility.

Subsequent to the end of the quarter, on September 7th, the Company entered into a new $35 million senior secured term loan credit facility, replacing its prior facility of approximately $25 million. This step further enhances the Company’s liquidity position by increasing its availability as well as reducing associated covenants. The Company concurrently entered into a restated and amended revolving credit facility which reflects the terms of the new term loan credit facility. As a result of the amendment to the revolving credit facility and new term loan credit facility, the Company has also reduced its margin rate to pre-pandemic levels reducing its current cost of capital. Furthermore, the Company entered into an amendment to its third lien credit facility, which also reflects other applicable terms of the new term loan credit facility. The new term loan facility and amended revolving credit facility now mature in 2026 and the third lien credit facility now matures in 2027.

Net inventory at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021 was $74.3 million compared to $92.1 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As a reminder, the Company experienced an increase in seasonal inventory levels in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 due to order cancellations in the wholesale channel and temporary store closures. As a result of the actions taken to work through prior seasonal product, the healthier inventory levels also reflect an improved balance of newness.

2021 Second Quarter Earnings Conference Call

A conference call to discuss the second quarter results will be held today, September 9, 2021, at 4:30 p.m. ET, hosted by Vince Holding Corp. Chief Executive Officer, Jack Schwefel, and Chief Financial Officer, David Stefko. During the conference call, the Company may make comments concerning business and financial developments, trends and other business or financial matters. The Company's comments, as well as other matters discussed during the conference call, may contain or constitute information that has not been previously disclosed.

Those who wish to participate in the call may do so by dialing (833) 392-0629, conference ID 4054989. Any interested party will also have the opportunity to access the call via the Internet at http://investors.vince.com/.

For those who cannot listen to the live broadcast, a recording will be available for 12 months after the date of the event. Recordings may be accessed at http://investors.vince.com.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided, with respect to financial results relating to six months ended August 1, 2020, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted income (loss) before income taxes, adjusted income taxes, adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share, which are non-GAAP measures, in order to eliminate the effect of non-cash asset impairment charges and the TRA adjustment. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures facilitates an understanding of the Company's continuing operations without the impact associated with the aforementioned items. While these types of events can and do recur periodically, they are excluded from the indicated financial information due to their impact on the comparability of earnings across periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in Exhibit 3 to this press release.
