第二四半期の財務2025年第2四半期の財務結果と2024年第2四半期と比較して
•連結純売上高は、ヘアアプライアンス、空気清浄機、加湿器の販売低下によるBeauty＆Wellness部門の減少に主によると、$491.6億から$474.2億へと、$1,730万、または3.5%減少しました。これらの要因は、Home＆Outdoorの成長、家庭用および断熱飲料グッズ部門での国際的な成長、Beauty＆Wellness部門内でのファンと温度計の販売増加によって部分的に相殺されました。
•総合粗利益率は、46.7%に比べて110ベーシスポイント低下し、45.6%となりました。総合粗利益率の低下は、Home＆Outdoorでのより好ましくない製品と顧客の組み合わせ、および前年比での不利な在庫陳腐化費用に主に起因しています。これらの要因は、部分的にはPegasusプロジェクトの取り組みによる、低価格のベンチマークと製品コストの低減によって一部相殺されました。
•総売上費用、一般管理費（以下、「SG＆A」）比率は前年比140ベーシスポイント上昇し、36.5％から37.9％に増加しました。 総合SG＆A比率の増加は、主に企業がブランドに再投資するための高いマーケティング費用、追加費用による不利な流通センター費用、テネシー州の流通施設における自動化の立ち上げに関連する効率の低下、および不利な運営レバレッジの影響によるものです。 これらの要因は、年間インセンティブ報酬費用が低下した総人件費の低下によって一部相殺されました。
•連結営業利益は3490万ドル、または純売上高の7.3%に相当し、4680万ドル、または純売上高の9.5%と比較しています。 連結営業利益率の220ベースポイントの減少は、主に連結SG&A比率の増加および連結粗利益率の低下に起因しており、一部は再編成費用の210万ドルの減少によって相殺されました。
•利息費は1320万ドルで、1370万ドルと比較しています。利息費の減少は、主に平均の借入残高が低かったことによるものであり、一方で前年同期と比較して平均実効利率が高かったことに一部相殺されました。
•所得税費用は、所得税前収入の22.0%に対して、17.9%に比べて、主に第一四半期に制定されたバルバドス税法の影響によるものでした。
2
2025年度、さまざまな税法管轄区の所得構成の変化、および離散項目の税費用の増加。
•当期純利益は1,700万ドルで、2,740万ドルに対してでした。希薄化後epsは0.74ドルで、1.14ドルに対してでした。希薄化後epsの減少は、主に営業利益の低下と実効所得税率の上昇によるもので、部分的には希薄化調整後の発行株数の減少や利息費用の減少により相殺されました。
•非GAAP調整後のEBITDA（利息、税金、減価償却費、償却費を除く利益）は5578百万ドルで、7170百万ドルに対してでした。非GAAP調整後のEBITDA率は11.8％で、14.6％に対してでした。
2025年第2四半期および2024年第2四半期の調整後（非GAAP）の、リストラの費用、有形固定資産の償却、および該当する場合の非現金の株式報酬を除外した金額：
•調整後の営業利益は、ネット販売売上高の9.8%に相当する4640万ドル、または25.5%減の1590万ドルに減少しました。これは、ネット販売売上高の12.7%に相当する6230万ドルから比較しています。調整後の営業利益率の減少は、主に、より高いマーケティング費用、ホーム＆アウトドア部門内の製品および顧客ミックスの不利な変化、年度間の不利な在庫の陳腐化費用、および不利な営業力の影響によるものでした。これらの要因は、全体的な人件費の削減、これには低下した年次インセンティブ報酬費用の影響、およびプロジェクトペガサスの取り組みによるコモディティおよび製品コストの低下に一部よって一部的に相殺されました。
•調整後の収入は142百万ドル減少し、418百万ドルに対して275百万ドルになりました。調整後の希薄化後epsは30.5％減少し、1.74ドルから1.21ドルになりました。調整後の希薄化後epsの減少は、主に調整後の運用収入の低下と調整後の実効所得税率の増加によるもので、これらは部分的に、流通中の希薄化した株式数の低下と利息費用の減少によって相殺されました。
Segment Results - Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Compared to Second Quarter Fiscal 2024
Home & Outdoor net sales revenue increased $2.0 million, or 0.8%, to $241.9 million, compared to $240.0 million. The increase was driven by an increase in sales in the insulated beverageware category, higher international sales primarily driven by new and expanded retailer distribution, and expanded retailer distribution in the home category. These factors were partially offset by softer consumer demand, lower replenishment orders from retail customers, and continued softness in technical packs and related accessories.
Home & Outdoor operating income was $31.2 million, or 12.9% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $36.1 million, or 15.0% of segment net sales revenue. The decrease in segment operating margin was primarily due to unfavorable distribution center expense, a less favorable product and customer mix, and higher marketing expense as the segment reinvested back into its brands. These factors were partially offset by lower overall personnel expense, which includes the impact of lower annual incentive compensation expense, and favorable inventory obsolescence expense year-over-year. Adjusted operating income decreased 14.5% to $36.3 million, or 15.0% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $42.4 million, or 17.7% of segment net sales revenue.
Beauty & Wellness net sales revenue decreased $19.3 million, or 7.7%, to $232.3 million, compared to $251.6 million. The decrease was driven by a decline in sales of hair appliances due to softer consumer demand, shifts in consumer spending and increased competition, lower sales of air purifiers and humidifiers driven by reduced replenishment orders from retail customers, and a decrease in water
3
filtration product revenue due to the expiration of an out-license relationship. These factors were partially offset by fan and thermometer growth.
Beauty & Wellness operating income was $3.7 million, or 1.6% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $10.7 million, or 4.3% of segment net sales revenue. The decrease in segment operating margin was primarily due to higher marketing expense as the segment reinvested back into its brands, unfavorable inventory obsolescence expense year-over-year, and the impact of unfavorable operating leverage. These factors were partially offset by lower commodity and product costs and lower overall personnel expense, which includes the impact of lower annual incentive compensation expense. Adjusted operating income decreased 48.9% to $10.2 million, or 4.4% of segment net sales revenue, compared to $19.9 million, or 7.9% of segment net sales revenue.
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow - Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 Compared to Second Quarter Fiscal 2024
•Cash and cash equivalents totaled $20.1 million, compared to $24.2 million.
•Accounts receivable turnover(5) was 69.0 days, compared to 67.9 days.
•Inventory was $469.6 million, compared to $435.7 million.
•Total short- and long-term debt was $713.2 million, compared to $844.9 million.
•Net cash provided by operating activities for the first six months of the fiscal year was $69.9 million, compared to $157.7 million for the same period last year.
•Free cash flow(1)(2) for the first six months of the fiscal year was $55.9 million, compared to $137.2 million for the same period last year.
Pegasus Restructuring Plan
The Company previously announced a global restructuring plan intended to expand operating margins through initiatives designed to improve efficiency and effectiveness and reduce costs (collectively referred to as “Project Pegasus”). Project Pegasus includes multiple workstreams to further optimize the Company's brand portfolio, streamline and simplify the organization, accelerate and amplify cost of goods savings projects, enhance the efficiency of its supply chain network, optimize its indirect spending and improve its cash flow and working capital, as well as other activities. The Company anticipates these initiatives will create operating efficiencies, as well as provide a platform to fund future growth investments.
As previously disclosed, the Company continues to have the following expectations regarding Project Pegasus charges:
•Total one-time pre-tax restructuring charges of approximately $50 million to $55 million over the duration of the plan, expected to be completed during fiscal 2025.
•Pre-tax restructuring charges to be comprised of approximately $15 million to $19 million of severance and employee related costs, $28 million of professional fees, $3 million to $4 million of contract termination costs, and $4 million of other exit and disposal costs.
•All of the Company's operating segments and shared services will be impacted by the plan and pre-tax restructuring charges include approximately $16 million to $17 million in Home & Outdoor and $34 million to $38 million in Beauty & Wellness.
•Pre-tax restructuring charges represent primarily cash expenditures, which are expected to be substantially paid by the end of fiscal 2025.
4
The Company also continues to have the following expectations regarding Project Pegasus savings:
•Targeted annualized pre-tax operating profit improvements of approximately $75 million to $85 million, which began in fiscal 2024 and are expected to be substantially achieved by the end of fiscal 2027.
•Estimated cadence of the recognition of the savings will be approximately 25% in fiscal 2024, which was achieved, approximately 35% in fiscal 2025, approximately 25% in fiscal 2026, and approximately 15% in fiscal 2027.
•Total profit improvements to be realized approximately 60% through reduced cost of goods sold and 40% through lower SG&A.
Fiscal 2025 Annual Outlook
The Company continues to expect consolidated net sales revenue in the range of $1.885 billion to $1.935 billion, which implies a decline of 6.0% to 3.5%. The sales outlook continues to reflect the Company's view of lingering inflation and continued consumer spending softness, especially in certain discretionary categories, as well as its view of increased macro uncertainty, an increasingly stretched consumer, a more promotional environment, and retailers even more closely managing their inventory levels. The sales outlook reflects the impact of executional challenges in the Company's Tennessee distribution facility on sales that occurred during the first quarter of fiscal 2025. During the second quarter of fiscal 2025, the remediation efforts for the automation system were substantially completed, and the Company believes the impact on sales was minimal during the quarter. The Company now believes it is in a position to achieve targeted efficiency levels by the end of fiscal 2025.
The Company's fiscal year net sales outlook now reflects the following expectations by segment:
•Home & Outdoor net sales decline of 2.3% to growth of 1.4%, which includes the impact of shipping disruption in the Company's Tennessee distribution facility during the first quarter of fiscal 2025, compared to the prior expectation of a decline of 3.0% to 1.0%; and
•Beauty & Wellness net sales decline of 9.0% to 7.5%, compared to the prior expectation of a decline of 8.0% to 5.0%, both of which include a year-over-year headwind of approximately 1.0% related to the expiration of an out-license relationship in Wellness.
The Company continues to expect GAAP diluted EPS of $4.69 to $5.45 and non-GAAP adjusted diluted EPS in the range of $7.00 to $7.50, which implies an adjusted diluted EPS decline of 21.4% to 15.8%.
The Company continues to expect adjusted EBITDA of $287 million to $297 million, which implies a decline of 14.6% to 11.8%, as benefits from Project Pegasus are reinvested for growth. The Company's outlook continues to reflect:
•a year-over-year increase in growth investment spending of approximately 100 basis points;
•a year-over-year headwind of approximately 50 basis points from the expiration of an out-license relationship in Wellness;
•margin compression of approximately 50 basis points from incremental operating expense and lost efficiency related to automation startup issues at its Tennessee distribution facility, compared to the prior expectation of 60 basis points; and
•margin compression from its view of a more promotional environment, a less favorable mix, and lower operating leverage due to the decline in revenue.
The Company continues to expect these factors to be partially offset by profit improvement actions implemented in the second quarter.
The Company now expects free cash flow(1)(2) in the range of $180 million to $200 million, compared to the previous range of $200 million to $240 million, and now expects its net leverage ratio(1)(3), as defined in its credit agreement, to end fiscal 2025 at 1.90x to 1.80x, compared to the previous range of 1.60x to 1.50x.
5
In terms of the quarterly cadence of sales, the Company now expects a decline in net sales of approximately 4.5% to 1% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company now expects a decline in adjusted diluted EPS of approximately 10% to 3% in the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
The Company's consolidated net sales and EPS outlook also reflects the following assumptions:
•the severity of the cough/cold/flu season will be in line with pre-COVID historical averages;
•September 2024 foreign currency exchange rates will remain constant for the remainder of the fiscal year;
•expected interest expense in the range of $44.0 million to $46.0 million;
•a reported GAAP effective tax rate range of 27.3% to 29.5% for the full fiscal year 2025 and an adjusted effective tax rate range of 20.7% to 21.3%; and
•an estimated weighted average diluted shares outstanding of 23.1 million for the full year.
The likelihood, timing and potential impact of a significant or prolonged recession, any fiscal 2025 acquisitions and divestitures, future asset impairment charges, future foreign currency fluctuations, additional interest rate increases, or share repurchases are unknown and cannot be reasonably estimated; therefore, they are not included in the Company's outlook.

HELEN OF TROY LIMITED AND SUBSIDIARIES
Notes to Press Release
| (1) | This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted Operating Income, Adjusted Operating Margin, Adjusted Effective Tax Rate, Adjusted Income, Adjusted Diluted EPS, EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA Margin, Free Cash Flow, and Net Leverage Ratio (“Non-GAAP Financial Measures”) that are discussed in the accompanying press release or in the preceding tables may be considered non-GAAP financial measures as defined by SEC Regulation G, Rule 100. Accordingly, the Company is providing the preceding tables that reconcile these measures to their corresponding GAAP-based financial measures. The Company is unable to present a quantitative reconciliation of forward-looking expected net leverage ratio to its most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP financial measure because such information is not available, and management cannot reliably predict all of the necessary components of such GAAP financial measure without unreasonable effort or expense. In addition, the Company believes such reconciliation would imply a degree of precision that would be confusing or misleading to investors. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures provide useful information to management and investors regarding financial and business trends relating to its financial condition and results of operations. The Company believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures, in combination with the Company's financial results calculated in accordance with GAAP, provide investors with additional perspective regarding the impact of certain charges and benefits on applicable income, margin and earnings per share measures. The Company also believes that these Non-GAAP Financial Measures facilitate a more direct comparison of the Company's performance with its competitors. The Company further believes that including the excluded charges and benefits would not accurately reflect the underlying performance of the Company's operations for the period in which the charges and benefits were incurred and reflected in the Company's GAAP financial results. The material limitation associated with the use of the Non-GAAP Financial Measures is that the Non-GAAP Financial Measures do not reflect the full economic impact of the Company's activities. These Non-GAAP Financial Measures are not prepared in accordance with GAAP, are not an alternative to GAAP financial measures, and may be calculated differently than non-GAAP financial measures disclosed by other companies. Accordingly, undue reliance should not be placed on non-GAAP financial measures. | |||||||
| (2) | Free cash flow represents net cash provided by operating activities less capital and intangible asset expenditures. | |||||||
| (3) | Net leverage ratio is calculated as (a) total borrowings under the Company's credit agreement plus outstanding letters of credit, net of unrestricted cash and cash equivalents, including readily marketable obligations issued, guaranteed or insured by the U.S. with maturities of two years or less, at the end of the current period, divided by (b) Adjusted EBITDA per the Company's credit agreement (calculated as EBITDA plus non-cash charges and certain allowed addbacks, less certain non-cash income, plus the pro forma effect of acquisitions and certain pro forma run-rate cost savings for acquisitions and dispositions, as applicable for the trailing twelve months ended as of the current period). | |||||||
| (4) | Organic business refers to net sales revenue associated with product lines or brands after the first twelve months from the date the product line or brand is acquired, excluding the impact that foreign currency remeasurement had on reported net sales revenue. Net sales revenue from internally developed brands or product lines is considered Organic business activity. | |||||||
| (5) | Accounts receivable turnover uses 12 month trailing net sales revenue. The current and four prior quarters' ending balances of trade accounts receivable are used for the purposes of computing the average balance component as required by the particular measure. | |||||||
| (6) | Domestic net sales revenue includes net sales revenue from the U.S. and Canada. | |||||||
| (7) | Represents a charge for uncollectible receivables due to the bankruptcy of Bed, Bath & Beyond (“Bed, Bath & Beyond bankruptcy”). | |||||||
| (8) | Gain on the sale of distribution and office facilities in El Paso, Texas during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024. | |||||||
| (9) | Represents a discrete tax charge to revalue existing deferred tax liabilities as a result of Barbados enacting a domestic corporate income tax rate of 9%, effective beginning with the Company's fiscal year 2025 (“Barbados tax reform”). | |||||||
| (10) | See reconciliation of Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP-based financial measure (net income) in the accompanying tables to this press release. | |||||||
| (11) | Income tax effect of adjustments is inclusive of the Barbados tax reform income tax adjustment. | |||||||
