ATLANTA -- (Business Wire)
Carter’s, Inc. (NYSE:CRI), the largest branded marketer in the United
States of apparel exclusively for babies and young children, today
reported its fourth quarter and fiscal 2011 results.
“In the fourth quarter, we achieved sales growth in every segment of our
business, which reflects the strength of our brands and compelling value
they provide to consumers,” said Michael D. Casey, Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer. “For the year, we achieved a record level of sales by
extending the reach of our brands in the United States and international
markets. Earnings continue to be impacted by abnormally high cotton
prices. We expect to see the benefit of lower cotton prices in the
second half of 2012, and we are forecasting good growth in sales and
profitability this year.”
Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2011 compared to Fourth Quarter of Fiscal
2010
Consolidated net sales increased $111.4 million, or 22.5%, to $606.6
million. Net domestic sales of the Company’s Carter’s brands
increased $54.5 million, or 14.1%, to $442.4 million. Net domestic sales
of the Company’s OshKosh B’gosh brand increased $10.6 million, or
10.6%, to $110.0 million. Net international sales, which are comprised
of sales of Carter’s and OshKosh B’gosh branded products
to wholesale customers outside the United States and Canadian retail
store sales, increased $46.3 million to $54.3 million.
The Company’s pre-tax income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011
includes expenses related to the acquisition of Bonnie Togs, a Canadian
children’s apparel retailer, of approximately $3.0 million.
Operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $55.0 million,
a decrease of $3.7 million, or 6.4%, from $58.8 million in the fourth
quarter of fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the acquisition-related
expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted
operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $58.0 million,
a decrease of $0.8 million, or 1.3%, from the fourth quarter of fiscal
2010. The decrease primarily reflects the net effect of higher product
costs.
Net income decreased $0.1 million, or 0.3%, to $34.8 million, or $0.59
per diluted share, compared to $34.9 million, or $0.60 per diluted
share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the
acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this
release, adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011
increased $2.5 million, or 6.8%, to $37.3 million, or $0.63 per diluted
share from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
A reconciliation of income as reported under accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) to adjusted
income is provided at the end of this release.
Business Segment Results
In light of the acquisition of Bonnie Togs in June 2011, the Company
realigned certain of its reportable segments. Effective October 1, 2011,
the Carter’s and OshKosh wholesale segments reflect
domestic business activities formerly reported in these brands’
wholesale and mass channel segments. In addition, the Company added a
new international segment, which includes its Canadian retail business,
international wholesale sales, and international royalty income.
Prior-year amounts have been recast to conform to the current year
presentation.
Carter’s Segments
Carter’s retail segment sales increased $42.6 million, or 26.1%,
to $206.3 million, driven by incremental sales of $19.3 million
generated by new store openings and $13.0 million generated by eCommerce
sales, and a comparable store sales increase of $11.0 million, or 7.2%,
which were partially offset by the effect of store closings of $0.7
million. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company opened nine Carter’s
retail stores and closed one. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the
Company operated 359 Carter’s retail stores.
Carter’s wholesale segment sales increased $11.9 million, or
5.3%, to $236.1 million reflecting strong demand for the Company’s Carter’s,
Just One You, and Child of Mine brands.
OshKosh B’gosh Segments
OshKosh retail segment sales increased $9.5 million, or 11.9%, to
$89.3 million, driven by a comparable store sales increase of $5.0
million, or 6.9%, incremental sales of $4.6 million generated by
eCommerce sales and $1.6 million generated by new store openings, which
were partially offset by the effect of store closings of $1.9 million.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company closed six OshKosh
retail stores. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the Company operated
170 OshKosh retail stores.
OshKosh wholesale segment sales increased $1.1 million, or 5.6%,
to $20.6 million.
International Segment
International segment sales increased $46.3 million to $54.3 million,
reflecting the acquisition of the Canadian retailer Bonnie Togs in
fiscal 2011 and higher wholesale sales. In the fourth quarter of fiscal
2011, the Company opened one store in Canada. As of the end of the
fourth quarter, the Company operated 65 retail stores in Canada.
Fiscal 2011 compared to Fiscal 2010
Consolidated net sales increased $360.5 million, or 20.6%, to $2.1
billion. Net domestic sales of the Company’s Carter’s brands
increased $236.7 million, or 17.2%, to $1.6 billion. Net domestic sales
of the Company’s OshKosh B’gosh brand increased $22.4 million, or
6.6%, to $362.8 million. Net international sales increased $101.4
million to $136.2 million.
The Company’s pre-tax income in fiscal 2011 includes Bonnie Togs
acquisition-related charges of approximately $12.2 million.
Operating income in fiscal 2011 was $187.5 million, a decrease of $55.8
million, or 22.9%, from $243.3 million in fiscal 2010. Excluding the
effect of the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at
the end of this release, adjusted operating income in fiscal 2011 was
$199.7 million, a decrease of $43.6 million, or 17.9%, from fiscal 2010.
The decrease primarily reflects the net effect of higher product costs.
Net income decreased $32.5 million, or 22.2%, to $114.0 million, or
$1.94 per diluted share, compared to $146.5 million, or $2.46 per
diluted share, in fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the
acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this
release, adjusted net income in fiscal 2011 decreased $23.2 million, or
15.9%, to $123.2 million, or $2.09 per diluted share from fiscal 2010.
A reconciliation of income as reported under GAAP to income adjusted for
expenses related to the Company’s acquisition of the Bonnie Togs
business is provided at the end of this release.
Cash flow from operations in fiscal 2011 was $81.1 million compared to
$85.8 million in fiscal 2010, reflecting decreased earnings in fiscal
2011, partially offset by lower net working capital requirements.
Carter’s Segments
Carter’s retail segment sales increased $125.4 million, or 22.9%,
to $671.6 million, driven by incremental sales of $57.0 million
generated by new store openings and $40.8 million generated by eCommerce
sales, and a comparable store sales increase of $29.1 million, or 5.6%,
which were partially offset by the effect of store closings of $1.5
million. In fiscal 2011, the Company opened 56 Carter’s retail
stores and closed three stores.
Carter’s wholesale segment sales increased $111.3 million, or
13.4%, to $939.1 million, driven by growth in the Company’s Carter’s,
Child of Mine, and Just One You brands.
OshKosh B’gosh Segments
OshKosh retail segment sales increased $16.0 million, or 6.0%, to
$280.9 million, driven by incremental sales of $12.9 million generated
by eCommerce sales and $8.9 million generated by new store openings,
which were partially offset by a comparable store sales decrease of $0.7
million, or 0.3%, and the effect of store closings of $5.0 million. In
fiscal 2011, the Company opened three OshKosh retail stores and
closed thirteen stores.
OshKosh wholesale segment sales increased $6.4 million, or 8.5%,
to $81.9 million driven by higher off-price channel sales.
International Segment
International segment sales increased $101.4 million to $136.2 million,
reflecting the acquisition of Bonnie Togs in fiscal 2011 and higher
wholesale sales.
2012 Business Outlook
The Company anticipates that product costs for its Spring 2012
merchandise assortments will increase approximately 15% compared to its
Spring 2011 assortments, due to continued elevated cotton, labor, and
other product-related costs. Product costs for the Company’s Fall 2012
merchandise assortment are expected to decline approximately 10%
compared to its Fall 2011 assortments, principally due to lower cotton
costs.
For fiscal 2012, the Company projects net sales will increase
approximately 8% to 10% over fiscal 2011. The Company expects adjusted
diluted earnings per share, excluding approximately $5 million to $7
million in charges related to the Bonnie Togs acquisition or other
unusual items, to be approximately $2.40 to $2.50 compared to $2.09 in
fiscal 2011.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company expects net sales to
increase approximately 11% to 13% over the first quarter of fiscal 2011.
The Company expects adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding
approximately $1 million to $2 million in charges related to the Bonnie
Togs acquisition or other unusual items, to be approximately $0.38 to
$0.43, compared to $0.56 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Cautionary Language
This press release contains forward-looking statements within the
meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities
Litigation Reform Act of 1995 relating to the Company’s future
performance, including, without limitation, statements with respect to
the Company’s anticipated financial results for the first quarter of
fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2012, or any other future period, assessment of
the Company’s performance and financial position, and drivers of the
Company’s sales and earnings growth. Such statements are based on
current expectations only, and are subject to certain risks,
uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or
uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove
incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated,
estimated, or projected. Factors that could cause actual results to
materially differ include: the acceptance of the Company's products in
the marketplace; changes in consumer preference and fashion trends;
seasonal fluctuations in the children's apparel business; negative
publicity; the breach of the Company's consumer databases; increased
production costs; deflationary pricing pressures and customer acceptance
of higher selling prices; a continued decrease in the overall level of
consumer spending; the Company's dependence on its foreign supply
sources; failure of its foreign supply sources to meet the Company's
quality standards or regulatory requirements; the impact of governmental
regulations and environmental risks applicable to the Company's
business; disruption to our eCommerce business; the loss of a product
sourcing agent; increased competition in the baby and young children's
apparel market; the ability of the Company to identify new retail store
locations, and negotiate appropriate lease terms for the retail stores;
the ability of the Company to adequately forecast demand, which could
create significant levels of excess inventory; failure to successfully
integrate Bonnie Togs into our existing business and realize growth
opportunities and other benefits from the acquisition; failure to
achieve sales growth plans, cost savings, and other assumptions that
support the carrying value of the Company's intangible assets; and the
ability to attract and retain key individuals within the organization.
Many of these risks are further described in the most recently filed
Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and other reports filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission under the headings "Risk Factors" and
"Forward-Looking Statements." The Company undertakes no obligation to
publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a
