Hanover Direct Reports Net Income for the Second Quarter of
Fiscal 2004 - Restatement of Fiscal 2000 through the First Quarter of 2004
EDGEWATER, N.J., Aug. 10 /PRNewswire-FirstCall/ -- Hanover Direct, Inc. today
announced net income for the 13- and 26- weeks ended June 26, 2004 of $0.6
million and $1.0 million, respectively. This represents the third consecutive
quarter that the Company has recorded net income.
During the second quarter of 2004, the Company identified a revenue recognition
cut-off issue that resulted in revenue being recorded in advance of the actual
shipment of merchandise to the customer. The practice was stopped immediately
and the Company implemented procedures to ensure that this issue does not
recur. The restated amounts for all periods affected dating back to fiscal
2000, while not material, are included in the Form 10-Q and this press release
filed today.
For the 13- weeks ended June 26, 2004, the Company reported net income
applicable to common shareholders of $0.6 million or $0.00 per share compared
with a net loss of $3.6 million, or $0.02 per share, for the comparable period
in 2003. These amounts were calculated after deducting Series B Participating
Preferred Stock dividends and accretion of $4.3 million for the 13- weeks ended
June 28, 2003.
Net revenues decreased $9.4 million (8.9%) for the 13-week period ended June
26, 2004 to $96.5 million from $105.9 million for the comparable period in
2003. This decrease resulted primarily from lower inventory levels caused by
the Company's reduced liquidity that resulted from lower borrowing availability
and tighter vendor credit at that time. Also, related declines in initial
product fill rates and higher backorders and cancellations as well as reduced
circulation in Domestications contributed to the sales decline. As previously
announced, on July 8, 2004, the Company closed and funded a $20 million Term
Loan Facility with Chelsey Finance, LLC and amended its existing senior credit
facility with Congress increasing the Company's liquidity by approximately $25
million in the aggregate. These transactions were consummated to address the
liquidity issuing facing the Company. The Company's Internet sales continued
to grow, despite the negative impact of low inventory levels, comprising 31.1%
of combined Internet and catalog revenues for the 13- weeks ended June 26, 2004
compared with 27.5% for the comparable period in 2003. Internet sales have
increased by approximately $0.8 million, or 2.9%, to $28.3 million for the
13-week period ended June 26, 2004 from $27.5 million for the comparable period
in 2003.
"It was a difficult quarter reflecting the impact that our tight liquidity
position had on all of our businesses," stated Wayne Garten, the Company's
President and Chief Executive Officer. Mr. Garten added, "On the positive
side, the Company still was able to report its third consecutive profitable
quarter primarily as a result of The Company Store's continued strong
performance. In addition, our new financing arrangements provide the Company
with adequate liquidity to support its business."
The Company reported net income applicable to common shareholders of $1.0
million, or $0.00 per share, for the 26- weeks ended June 26, 2004 compared
with a net loss applicable to common shareholders of $7.2 million, or $0.05 per
share, for the comparable period in 2003. These amounts were calculated after
deducting Series B Participating Preferred Stock dividends and accretion of
$7.9 million for the 26- weeks ended June 28, 2003. The weighted average
number of shares used in the calculation for basic and diluted net income per
common share was 220,173,633 and 220,455,326, respectively, for the 26-week
period ended June 26, 2004. The weighted average number of shares used in the
calculation for both basic and diluted net loss per common share was
138,315,800 for the 26-week period ended June 28, 2003. The increase in
weighted average shares was primarily the result of the Recapitalization
Agreement with Chelsey Direct, LLC consummated on November 30, 2003.
Net revenues decreased $15.5 million (7.5%) for the 26-week period ended June
26, 2004 to $191.9 million from $207.4 million for the comparable period in
2003. This decrease resulted from lower inventory levels caused by the
Company's reduced borrowing availability, tighter vendor credit and a decline
in initial product fill rates and increases in backorders and cancellations. As
planned, there was a continued reduction in circulation for the Domestications
brand in order to limit the investment in catalog production costs and working
capital necessary to maintain its inventory. The Company's Internet sales
continued to grow, despite the negative impact of low inventory levels,
comprising 31.6% of combined Internet and catalog revenues for the 26- weeks
ended June 26, 2004 compared with 27.1% for the comparable period in 2003.
Internet sales have increased by approximately $3.9 million, or 7.3%, to $57.0
million for the 26-week period ended June 26, 2004 from $53.1 million for the
comparable fiscal period in 2003.
The Hanover Direct, Inc. 2004 Annual Meeting of Stockholders has been scheduled
for Thursday, August 12, 2004 at 9:30 a.m., local time. The meeting will be
held at the Sheraton Meadowlands Hotel and Conference Center, 2 Meadowlands
