Caleres (NYSE: CAL), a market-leading portfolio of consumer-driven footwear brands, today reported financial results for the third quarter of 2023, updated its full year 2023 sales outlook and tightened its earnings per share range.
“Caleres continued its strong operational and financial execution during the third quarter, delivering a 19-percent increase in adjusted earnings per share and exceeding the top end of the guidance range despite ongoing softness in the macroeconomic environment,” said Jay Schmidt, president and chief executive officer. “The Brand Portfolio once again led the way, achieving a sequential improvement in sales and generating record third quarter operating profit and operating margin. Most notably, the segment contributed more than half of total company operating profit through the first nine months of the fiscal year. At the same time, Famous Footwear continued to effectively navigate the challenging consumer demand landscape, delivering double-digit operating margin, demonstrating strength in its cornerstone Kids business, and achieving market share growth in shoe chains. Despite near-term macro challenges, we remain confident that Famous is well-situated to grow its leadership position with the Millennial family.
“In addition, we continued to strengthen our balance sheet and financial flexibility by executing on our expense reduction initiatives, reducing our revolver borrowings by more than $20 million, and investing in value-driving growth opportunities, including the omni-channel experience, marketing technologies and analytics, and international.”
Third Quarter 2023 Results
(13-weeks ended October 28, 2023, compared to 13-weeks ended October 29, 2022)
Capital Allocation Update
Caleres continued to reduce the borrowings under its asset-based revolving credit facility, paying down $22.0 million during the third quarter. At the end of the fiscal third quarter, bank-defined leverage was approximately 0.9x on a debt/EBITDA trailing twelve-month basis and the company had in excess of $300 million in total liquidity. Caleres also invested $20.5 million in capital expenditures and returned $2.5 million to shareholders through its quarterly dividend. Given today’s higher interest rates and the current economic environment, the company believes it’s prudent to continue to reduce debt and maximize liquidity.
Full Year 2023 Outlook
“Looking ahead, we are confident that our leading brand assets, unique One Caleres capabilities and strong balance sheet have set the stage for a third consecutive year of adjusted earnings in excess of our $4.00-per-share baseline,” said Schmidt. “Longer term, we remain sharply focused on the strategies we outlined at our recent Investor Day, and the Caleres team is dedicated and poised to execute on this clear and actionable plan for long-term value creation and growth.”
As a result of the soft consumer demand environment in its Famous Footwear segment, Caleres now expects consolidated net sales to be down 4.5 percent to 5.5 percent, including the impact of the 53rd week, for full year 2023.
In addition, the company is tightening its diluted earnings per share guidance range to $3.96 to $4.06, inclusive of $7 million of restructuring charges associated with expense reduction actions, and adjusted diluted earnings per share range to $4.10 to $4.20.
Caleres now expects:
