DICK’S SPORTING GOODS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES

NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

 

1.  Basis of Presentation

 

Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc. (together with its subsidiaries, the “Company”) is an authentic full-line sports and fitness omni-channel retailer offering a broad assortment of high-quality brand name sporting goods equipment, apparel and footwear in a specialty store environment.  When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified, any reference to “year” is to our fiscal year and the terms “we”, “us”, “the Company” and “our” refer to Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

 

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared by us in accordance with the requirements for Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and do not include all the disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”).  The interim consolidated financial statements are unaudited and have been prepared on the same basis as the annual audited consolidated financial statements.  In the opinion of management, such unaudited consolidated financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair presentation of the interim financial information.  This unaudited interim financial information should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2013 as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 22, 2013.  Operating results for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending February 1, 2014 or any other period.

 

Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements

 

Reclassifications Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income

 

In February 2013, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2013-02, “Comprehensive Income – Reporting of Amounts Reclassified Out of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income.” This update requires an entity to provide information about the amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by component. In addition, entities are required to present, either on the face of the statement where net income is presented or in the notes to the financial statements, significant amounts reclassified out of accumulated other comprehensive income by the respective line items of net income but only if the amount reclassified is required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified to net income in its entirety in the same reporting period. For other amounts that are not required under U.S. GAAP to be reclassified in their entirety to net income, entities are required to cross-reference to the related note to the financial statements where additional details about the effect of the reclassifications are disclosed. This ASU is effective prospectively for reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2012. The Company adopted ASU 2013-02 during the first quarter of 2013.  The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets Impairment

 

In July 2012, the FASB issued ASU 2012-02, “Testing Indefinite-Lived Intangible Assets for Impairment.” This update amended the procedures for testing the impairment of indefinite-lived intangible assets by permitting an entity to first assess qualitative factors to determine whether the existence of events and circumstances indicates that it is more likely than not that the indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. An entity’s assessment of the totality of events and circumstances and their impact on the entity’s indefinite-lived intangible assets will then be used as a basis for determining whether it is necessary to perform the quantitative impairment test as described in ASC 350-30, “Intangibles – Goodwill and Other – General Intangibles Other than Goodwill.” ASU 2012-02 is effective for annual and interim impairment tests performed for fiscal years beginning after September 15, 2012.  The Company adopted ASU 2012-02 during the first quarter of 2013.  The adoption of this guidance did not impact the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements.

 

2.  Store Closings

 

The calculation of accrued store closing and relocation reserves primarily includes future minimum lease payments, maintenance costs and taxes from the date of closure or relocation to the end of the remaining lease term, net of contractual or estimated sublease income.  The liability is discounted using a credit-adjusted risk-free rate of interest.  The assumptions used in the calculation of the accrued store closing and relocation reserves are evaluated each quarter.

The current portion of accrued store closing and relocation reserves is included within accrued expenses and the long-term portion is included within long-term deferred revenue and other liabilities on the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets.

 

3.  Earnings Per Common Share

 

Basic earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during the period.  Diluted earnings per common share is computed based on the weighted average number of shares of common stock, plus the effect of dilutive potential common shares outstanding during the period, using the treasury stock method.  Dilutive potential common shares include outstanding stock options, restricted stock and warrants.

 

The computations for basic and diluted earnings per common share are as follows (in thousands, except per share data):

For the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 and April 28, 2012, 0.7 million and 0.9 million shares, respectively, were attributable to outstanding stock-based awards that were excluded from the calculation of diluted earnings per common share because their inclusion would have been anti-dilutive.

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date (an exit price).  ASC 820, “Fair Value Measurement and Disclosures”, outlines a valuation framework and creates a fair value hierarchy in order to increase the consistency and comparability of fair value measurements and the related disclosures, and prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value as follows:

 

Level 1:  Observable inputs such as quoted prices in active markets;

 

Level 2:  Inputs, other than quoted prices in active markets, that are observable either directly or indirectly; and

 

Level 3:  Unobservable inputs in which there is little or no market data, which require the reporting entity to develop its own assumptions.

The fair value of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and certain other liabilities approximated book value due to the short-term nature of these instruments at both May 4, 2013 and February 2, 2013.

 

The Company uses quoted prices in active markets to determine the fair value of the aforementioned assets determined to be Level 1 instruments.  The Company’s policy for recognition of transfers between levels of the fair value hierarchy is to recognize any transfer at the end of the fiscal quarter in which the determination to transfer was made.  There were no transfers between Level 1 and 2 during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013.  The Company did not hold any Level 3 financial assets or liabilities as of May 4, 2013 and February 2, 2013.

 

5. Income Taxes

 

During the first quarter of 2013, the Company determined that it would recover $4.3 million of its investment in JJB Sports, which it had previously fully impaired.  There is no related tax expense, as the Company reversed a portion of the deferred tax valuation allowance it had previously recorded for net capital loss carryforwards it did not expect to realize at the time its investment in JJB Sports was fully impaired.

 

6. Subsequent Event

 

On May 20, 2013, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash dividend in the amount of $0.125 per share of common stock and Class B common stock payable on June 28, 2013 to stockholders of record as of the close of business on June 7, 2013.

OVERVIEW

 

Dick’s is an authentic full-line sports and fitness omni-channel retailer offering a broad assortment of high-quality brand name sporting goods equipment, apparel and footwear in a specialty store environment.  The Company also owns and operates Golf Galaxy, LLC, a golf specialty retailer (“Golf Galaxy”).  When used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, unless the context otherwise requires or unless otherwise specified, any reference to “year” is to our fiscal year and the terms “we”, “us”, “the Company” and “our” refer to Dick’s Sporting Goods, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries.

 

As of May 4, 2013, we operated 520 Dick’s stores in 44 states and 81 Golf Galaxy stores in 30 states, with approximately 29.7 million square feet on a consolidated basis, the majority of which are located throughout the eastern half of the United States.

 

Due to the seasonal nature of our business, interim results are not necessarily indicative of results for the entire fiscal year.  Our revenue and earnings are typically greater during our fiscal fourth quarter, which includes the majority of the holiday selling season.

 

The primary factors that have historically influenced the Company’s profitability and success have been the growth in its number of stores and selling square footage, positive same store sales and its strong gross profit margins.  In the last five years, the Company has grown from 363 Dick’s stores as of May 3, 2008 to 520 Dick’s stores as of May 4, 2013.  The Company continues to expand its presence through the opening of new stores and believes it has the potential to reach approximately 1,100 Dick’s locations including smaller-market locations across the United States.

 

In order to monitor the Company’s success, the Company’s senior management monitors certain key performance indicators, including:

 

¡                 Consolidated same store sales performance – For the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company’s consolidated same store sales decreased 1.7% compared to an 8.4% increase during the same period in fiscal 2012.  The Company believes that its ability to consistently deliver increases in consolidated same store sales will be a key factor in achieving its targeted levels of earnings per share growth and continuing its store expansion and omni-channel development programs.

 

¡                 Operating cash flow – Net cash used in operations totaled $75.4 million for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, while the Company used $17.8 million during the same period in fiscal 2012.  We typically generate significant positive operating cash flows in our fiscal fourth quarter in connection with the holiday selling season and proportionately higher net income levels.  See further discussion of the Company’s cash flows in the “Liquidity and Capital Resources and Changes in Financial Condition” section herein.  The Company believes that a key strength of its business has been the ability to consistently generate positive cash flow from operations.  Strong cash flow generation is critical to the future success of the Company, not only to support the general operating needs of the Company, but also to fund capital expenditures related to its store network, distribution and administrative facilities, costs associated with continued improvement of information

technology tools, costs associated with potential strategic acquisitions or investments that may arise from time to time and stockholder return initiatives, including cash dividends and share repurchases.

 

¡                 Quality of merchandise offerings – To monitor and maintain acceptance of its merchandise offerings, the Company monitors sell-throughs, inventory turns, gross margins and markdown rates on a department and style level.  This analysis helps the Company manage inventory levels to reduce cash flow requirements and deliver optimal gross margins by improving merchandise flow and establishing appropriate price points to minimize markdowns.

 

¡                 Store productivity – To assess store-level performance, the Company monitors various indicators, including new store productivity, sales per square foot, store operating contribution margin and store cash flow.  New store productivity compares the sales increase for all stores not included in the same store sales calculation with the increase in square footage.

 

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES

 

As discussed in Item 7. “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 2, 2013, the Company considers its policies on inventory valuation, vendor allowances, goodwill and intangible assets, impairment of long-lived assets and closed store reserves, self-insurance reserves, stock-based compensation and uncertain tax positions to be the most critical in understanding the judgments that are involved in preparing its consolidated financial statements.  There have been no changes in the Company’s critical accounting policies during the period ended May 4, 2013.

 

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS AND OTHER SELECTED DATA

 

Executive Summary

 

¡                 Net income for the current quarter increased 13% to $64.8 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, as compared to net income of $57.2 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  Net income for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 includes $4.3 million, net of tax, or $0.04 per diluted share related to an estimated partial recovery from the Company’s previously impaired investment in JJB Sports.

 

¡                 Net sales increased 4% to $1.3 billion in the current quarter due primarily to the growth of our store network, partially offset by a 1.7% decrease in consolidated same store sales.  Due to the 53rd week in fiscal 2012, there is a one-week shift in fiscal 2013 results as compared to fiscal 2012. In the current quarter, the seasonal timing change resulting from this shift favorably impacted net sales comparisons by approximately $31 million. Consolidated same store sales, adjusted for the shifted retail calendar, decreased 3.8%.  eCommerce sales penetration was approximately 5.8% of total sales.

 

¡                 Gross profit increased 8 basis points to 30.87% as a percentage of net sales for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, due primarily to higher merchandise margins, partially offset by deleverage of fixed occupancy costs and higher freight and distribution costs.

 

¡                 In the first quarter, the Company:

 

¡                 Declared and paid a quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per common share and Class B common share.

 

¡                 Repurchased 1.7 million shares of common stock for approximately $80.6 million.  The Company funded the repurchase program from cash on hand.

 

¡                 We ended the first quarter with no outstanding borrowings under our current senior secured credit agreement (the “Credit Agreement”).

(1)       Revenue from retail sales is recognized at the point of sale, net of sales tax.  Revenue from eCommerce sales is recognized upon shipment of merchandise.  Service-related revenue is recognized as the services are performed.  A provision for anticipated merchandise returns is provided through a reduction of sales and cost of goods sold in the period that the related sales are recorded.  Revenue from gift cards and returned merchandise credits (collectively the “cards”) are deferred and recognized upon the redemption of the cards.  These cards have no expiration date.  Income from unredeemed cards is recognized on the unaudited Consolidated Statements of Income in selling, general and administrative expenses at the point at which redemption becomes remote.  The Company performs an evaluation of the aging of the unredeemed cards, based on the elapsed time from the date of original issuance, to determine when redemption is remote.

 

(2)       Cost of goods sold includes the cost of merchandise, inventory shrinkage and obsolescence, freight, distribution and store occupancy costs.  Store occupancy costs include rent, common area maintenance charges, real estate and other asset-based taxes, store maintenance, utilities, depreciation, fixture lease expenses and certain insurance expenses.

 

(3)       Selling, general and administrative expenses include store and field support payroll and fringe benefits, advertising, bank card charges, information systems, marketing, legal, accounting, other store expenses and all expenses associated with operating the Company’s corporate headquarters.

 

(4)      Pre-opening expenses consist primarily of rent, marketing, payroll and recruiting costs incurred prior to a new or relocated store opening which are expensed as incurred.

13 Weeks Ended May 4, 2013 Compared to the 13 Weeks Ended April 28, 2012

 

Net Income

 

The Company reported net income of $64.8 million for the current quarter, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to net income of $57.2 million, or $0.45 per diluted share, for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  Net income for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 includes $4.3 million, net of tax, or $0.04 per diluted share related to an estimated partial recovery from its previously impaired investment in JJB Sports.

 

Net Sales

 

Net sales for the current quarter increased 4% to $1.3 billion, due primarily to the growth of our store network, partially offset by a 1.7% decrease in consolidated same store sales.  The 1.7% consolidated same store sales decrease consisted of a 1.3% decrease at Dick’s Sporting Goods, and a 7.4% decrease at Golf Galaxy.  eCommerce sales penetration was approximately 5.8% of total sales.  Due to the 53rd week in fiscal 2012, there is a one-week shift in fiscal 2013 results as compared to fiscal 2012. In the current quarter, the seasonal timing change resulting from this shift favorably impacted net sales comparisons by approximately $31 million.  Consolidated same store sales, adjusted for the shifted retail calendar, decreased 3.8%, consisting of a 3.2% decrease at Dick’s Sporting Goods and an 11.8% decrease at Golf Galaxy.

 

The decrease in consolidated same store sales, as adjusted for the shifted retail calendar, was primarily driven by declines in our golf, fitness and baseball businesses and, to a lesser extent, in select outdoor businesses, such as bicycles, paddle sports and camping.  The fitness category reflects our continued divestiture of the LIVESTRONG brand, which we expect to materially complete in the Company’s third quarter of fiscal 2013.  The same store sales decrease at Dick’s Sporting Goods was attributable to an increase of 2.0% in sales per transaction and a 5.2% decrease in transactions.  Every 1% change in same store sales would have impacted earnings before income taxes for the current quarter by approximately $4 million.

 

Income from Operations

 

Income from operations increased to $97.6 million for the current quarter from $95.7 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  The increase was primarily due to a $17.1 million increase in gross profit, partially offset by a $16.6 million increase in selling, general and administrative expenses.

 

Gross profit increased 4% to $411.7 million for the current quarter from $394.6 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  The 8 basis point increase as a percentage of net sales was due primarily to merchandise margin expansion of 84 basis points due to our continued inventory management efforts, partially offset by a 47 basis point increase in fixed occupancy costs that increased as a percentage of sales as a result of the 1.7% decrease in consolidated same store sales and a 26 basis point increase in freight and distribution costs, driven by the increase in eCommerce sales.  Freight and distribution costs for eCommerce sales are higher as a percentage of sales than for sales made in our brick and mortar stores.  Every 10 basis point change in merchandise margin would have impacted the earnings before income taxes for the current quarter by approximately $1 million.

 

Selling, general and administrative expenses increased 6% to $312.7 million for the current quarter from $296.1 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012, and increased as a percentage of net sales by 35 basis points. The increase in administrative expenses was primarily due to increased payroll costs for planned growth initiatives.

 

Pre-opening expenses decreased to $1.3 million for the quarter from $2.7 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  Pre-opening expenses were for the opening of two new Dick’s stores during the quarter as compared to the opening of six new Dick’s stores during last year’s first quarter.  Pre-opening expenses in any period fluctuate depending on the timing and number of store openings and relocations.

 

Interest Expense

 

Interest expense was $0.7 million for the current quarter and $3.4 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012. Interest expense for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 included $2.7 million related to rent payments under the Company’s financing lease for its corporate headquarters building and the decrease in interest expense year over year reflects the Company’s purchase of its corporate headquarters building on May 7, 2012.

Table of Contents

 

Income Taxes

 

The Company’s effective tax rate was 37.2% for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 as compared to 39.3% for the same period last year.  During the first quarter of 2013, the Company determined that it would recover an estimated $4.3 million of its investment in JJB Sports, which it had previously fully impaired.  There is no related tax expense, as the Company reversed a portion of the deferred tax valuation allowance it had previously recorded for net capital loss carryforwards it did not expect to realize at the time its investment in JJB Sports was fully impaired.

 

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES AND CHANGES IN FINANCIAL CONDITION

 

Overview

 

The Company’s liquidity and capital needs have generally been met by cash from operating activities.  The Company ended the first quarter of 2013 with $113.9 million in cash and cash equivalents as compared to $521.0 million at the end of the first quarter of 2012.  Over the course of the past twelve months, the Company utilized capital to fund shares purchased pursuant to share repurchase programs, pay quarterly dividends, purchase its store support center, acquire intellectual property rights to the Field & Stream brand, build a distribution center and fund its $246 million special dividend.

 

Net cash used in operating activities for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 was $75.4 million compared to $17.8 million for the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  Net cash from operating, investing and financing activities are discussed further below.

 

The Company has a $500 million revolving credit facility, including up to $100 million in the form of letters of credit, in the event further liquidity is needed.  Under the Credit Agreement governing the facility (the “Credit Agreement”), subject to the satisfaction of certain conditions, the Company may request an increase of up to $250 million in borrowing availability.

 

The Credit Agreement, which matures on December 5, 2016, is secured by a first priority security interest in certain property and assets, including receivables, inventory, deposit accounts and other personal property of the Company and is guaranteed by the Company’s domestic subsidiaries.

 

The interest rates per annum applicable to loans under the Credit Agreement are, at the Company’s option, a base rate or an adjusted LIBOR rate plus, in each case, an applicable margin percentage.  The applicable margin percentage for base rate loans is 0.20% to 0.50% and for adjusted LIBOR rate loans is 1.20% to 1.50%, depending on the borrowing availability of the Company.

 

The Credit Agreement contains certain covenants that limit the ability of the Company to, among other things: incur or guarantee additional indebtedness; pay distributions on, redeem or repurchase capital stock or redeem or repurchase subordinated debt; make certain investments; sell assets; and consolidate, merge or transfer all or substantially all of the Company’s assets.  In addition, the Credit Agreement contains a covenant that requires the Company to maintain a minimum adjusted availability of 7.5% of its borrowing base.  As of May 4, 2013, the Company was in compliance with the terms of the Credit Agreement.

 

There were no outstanding borrowings under the Credit Agreement as of May 4, 2013 or February 2, 2013.  As of May 4, 2013 and February 2, 2013, total remaining borrowing capacity, after subtracting letters of credit, was $487.0 million and $488.7 million, respectively.

 

Normal capital requirements consist primarily of capital expenditures related to the addition of new stores, remodeling and relocating existing stores, enhancing information technology and improving distribution infrastructure.  The Company has a capital appropriations committee that approves all capital expenditures in excess of certain amounts and groups and prioritizes all capital projects among required, discretionary and strategic categories.

 

Store and omni-channel infrastructure - The Company currently plans to make substantial capital investments in its business in fiscal 2013 compared to fiscal 2012.  These investments include growing our omni-channel platform, implementing new systems, developing new retail concepts and store-related capital expenditures.  Store-related capital expenditures are expected to nearly double from fiscal 2012, due to anticipated investments in new and relocated stores and further upgrades to some of our existing stores to improve the shopping experience for our customers.

 

¡              The Company plans to open approximately 40 new Dick’s stores and relocate one Dick’s store during fiscal 2013.  The Company also expects to open one new Golf Galaxy store and relocate one Golf Galaxy store in fiscal 2013, both of which

¡               In 2013, we plan to accelerate the pace of new vendor shops by adding approximately 120 Nike Fieldhouse shops, 70 Under Armour All American shops and 65 adidas shops within our existing Dick’s Sporting Goods stores.  We are also working closely with The North Face to add new shops in conjunction with store remodels as well as elevate their branding in our seasonally expanded shops.

 

¡               We plan to install shared service footwear decks in all new and fully remodeled stores in 2013.

 

Share repurchases - On March 7, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a five-year share repurchase program of up to $1 billion of the Company’s common stock.  During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company repurchased 1.7 million shares of its common stock for $80.6 million.  The Company funded the repurchases from cash on hand.

 

Dividends - During the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013, the Company paid $18.2 million of dividends to its stockholders.  The declaration of future dividends and the establishment of the per share amount, record dates and payment dates for any such future dividends are subject to the final determination of our Board of Directors, and will be dependent upon future earnings, cash flows, financial requirements and other factors.

 

Event Subsequent to Quarter-end

 

Dividend - On May 20, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized and declared a quarterly dividend in the amount of $0.125 per share on the Company’s common stock and Class B common stock. The dividend is payable in cash on June 28, 2013 to stockholders of record at the close of business on June 7, 2013.

 

The Company currently believes that cash flows generated by operations and funds available under the Credit Agreement will be sufficient to satisfy our current capital requirements through fiscal 2013.  Other investment opportunities, such as potential strategic acquisitions, investments or store expansion rates in excess of those presently planned, may require additional funding.

Operating Activities

 

Cash flow from operations is seasonal in our business.  Typically, we use cash flow from operations to increase inventory in advance of peak selling seasons, with the pre-Christmas inventory increase being the largest.  In the fourth quarter, inventory levels are reduced in connection with Christmas sales and this inventory reduction, combined with proportionately higher net income, typically produces significant positive cash flow.

 

Operating activities consist primarily of net income, adjusted for certain non-cash items and changes in operating assets and liabilities.  Adjustments to net income for non-cash items include depreciation and amortization, deferred income taxes, stock-based compensation expense, tax benefits on stock options as well as non-cash gains and losses on the disposal of the

Table of Contents

 

Company’s assets, including impairment charges.  Changes in operating assets and liabilities primarily reflect changes in inventories, accounts payable, income taxes payable/receivable as well as other working capital changes.

 

Cash used in operating activities increased $57.6 million for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 compared to the same period last year, primarily due to higher income tax payments in the current quarter.  Income tax payments in fiscal 2012 were favorably impacted by the timing of implementation of a tax election to deduct certain repair and maintenance costs.

 

Investing Activities

 

Cash used in investing activities for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 decreased by $29.8 million to $68.6 million from the same period of fiscal 2012.  The Company’s gross capital expenditures were $34.0 million during the current period compared to $41.3 million during the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012, which relates primarily to the opening of new and relocated stores and investment in existing store locations and information systems.  The 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012 also included capital expenditures related to the construction of the Company’s distribution center in Goodyear, Arizona.  The Company opened two new Dick’s stores during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 as compared to opening six new Dick’s stores during the 13 weeks ended April 28, 2012.  The remaining decrease in cash used is due primarily to the Company’s $32.0 million investment in JJB Sports and $20.0 million purchase of the Top-Flite brand in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, partially offset by a $29.7 million lease buyout of corporate aircraft in the current quarter.

 

Financing Activities

 

Cash used in financing activities for the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 totaled $87.3 million, compared to $97.2 million of cash used in the same period of fiscal 2012.  The decrease in cash used primarily reflects lower share repurchase activity during the 13 weeks ended May 4, 2013 compared to the same period last year.

 

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements, Contractual Obligations and Other Commercial Commitments

 

The Company’s off-balance sheet contractual obligations and commercial commitments as of May 4, 2013 primarily relate to operating lease obligations, future minimum guaranteed contractual payments and letters of credit.  The Company has excluded these items from the unaudited Consolidated Balance Sheets in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. The Company does not believe that any of these arrangements have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or resources. There have been no significant changes in the Company’s off-balance sheet contractual obligations or commercial commitments since the end of fiscal 2012.

 

ITEM 3.  QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

 

There have been no material changes in the Company’s market risk exposures from those reported in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended February 2, 2013 filed March 22, 2013.

 

ITEM 4.  CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

 

During the first quarter of fiscal 2013, there were no changes in the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.

 

During the quarter, the Company carried out an evaluation, under the supervision and with the participation of the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, of the effectiveness of the design and operation of the disclosure controls and procedures, as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.  Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and the Chief Financial Officer, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of the end of the period covered by this report (May 4, 2013).

 

There are inherent limitations in the effectiveness of any control system, including the potential for human error and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.  Additionally, judgments in decision-making can be faulty and breakdowns can occur because of simple error or mistake.  An effective control system can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the control objectives of the system are adequately met.  Accordingly, our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, does not expect that our control system can prevent or detect all error or fraud.  Finally, projections of any evaluation or assessment of effectiveness of a control system to future periods are subject to

the risks that, over time, controls may become inadequate because of changes in an entity’s operating environment or deterioration in the degree of compliance with policies and procedures.

 

PART II.  OTHER INFORMATION

 

ITEM 1.  LEGAL PROCEEDINGS

ITEM 2.  UNREGISTERED SALES OF EQUITY SECURITIES AND USE OF PROCEEDS

 

On March 7, 2013, the Company’s Board of Directors authorized a share repurchase program of up to $1 billion of the Company’s common stock over the next five years.  The Company will finance the repurchases from cash on hand, future cash flows from operations or from borrowings under the Company’s credit facility.  Pursuant to the stock repurchase program, the Company repurchased 1.7 million shares of common stock for $80.6 million during the first quarter of 2013.  As of May 4, 2013, $919.4 million remained available under this program.  The Company may suspend or terminate the share repurchase program at any time.
