Vince Holding Corp. (NYSE: VNCE) ("VNCE" or the "Company"), a global contemporary retailer, today reported its financial results for the second quarter 2023 ended July 29, 2023.
In this press release, the Company is presenting its financial results in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") as well as on an "adjusted" basis. Adjusted results presented in this press release are non-GAAP financial measures. See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for more information about the Company's use of non-GAAP financial measures and Exhibit 3 to this press release for a reconciliation of GAAP measures to such non-GAAP measures.
Highlights for the second quarter ended July 29, 2023:
Jack Schwefel, Chief Executive Officer of VNCE said, "The second quarter marked an important chapter for Vince. We successfully closed the previously announced transaction with Authentic Brands Group and swiftly took actions to strengthen our balance sheet while enhancing our focus on our strategic growth initiatives and maintaining a disciplined approach to inventory management and expenses. Our second quarter sales performance was impacted by the ongoing macro-related headwinds as well as our strategic decision to pull back on the off-price wholesale business as our inventory balance has normalized compared to last year. We are encouraged by the improvement in trend we delivered in our direct-to-consumer channel during the period and have maintained this momentum as we have entered the start of the third quarter. We continue to believe we are well positioned to execute our initiatives and deliver on our objectives."

(1) Unallocated corporate expenses are related to the Vince brand and are comprised of selling, general and administrative expenses attributable to corporate and administrative activities (such as marketing, design, finance, information technology, legal and human resource departments), and other charges that are not directly attributable to the Company's Vince Wholesale and Vince Direct-to-consumer reportable segments. In addition, unallocated corporate expenses includes the $32.0 million from the Vince IP Sale Gain as well as $2.0 million in Transaction Expenses.
Balance Sheet
On June 26, 2023, the Company announced that it entered into a new five-year credit agreement for an $85 million senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (“ABL Credit Facility”) expected to mature in June 2028. The new ABL Credit Facility was entered into with Bank of America, N.A acting as administrative agent and replaces the Company's previous senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility set to mature in June 2024, which was repaid in full and terminated.
At the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023, total borrowings under the Company's debt agreements totaled $67.5 million and the Company had $34.7 million of excess availability under its revolving credit facility.
Net inventory at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2023 was $85.1 million compared to $129.5 million at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2022. The year-over-year decrease in inventory was driven by the wind down of the Rebecca Taylor business as well as a decline in Vince as the Company sold through higher levels of inventory from the prior year and rebalanced its inventory purchases for the current season.
During the quarter ended July 29, 2023, the Company did not issue shares of common stock under the ATM program. The Company continues to have shares available under the program to exercise with proceeds to be used as sources, along with cash from operations, to fund future growth.
Strategic Partnership with Authentic Brands Group
On May 25, 2023, the Company announced that it completed the previously announced transaction with Authentic Brands Group ("Authentic"). As part of the transaction ("Authentic Transaction"), VNCE and Authentic entered into a strategic arrangement whereby VNCE contributed its intellectual property to a newly formed Authentic subsidiary ("ABG Vince") for total consideration to VNCE of $76.5 million in cash from Authentic and 25% membership interest in ABG Vince. Authentic owns the majority stake of 75% membership interest in ABG Vince.
With the proceeds from this transaction, VNCE repaid in full the outstanding balance of $27.7 million under its Term Loan Credit Facility as well as a portion of the outstanding borrowings under its Revolving Credit Facility.
In connection with the Authentic Transaction, VNCE entered into an exclusive, long-term license agreement (the "License Agreement") with Authentic for usage of the contributed intellectual property for VNCE's existing business in a manner consistent with the Company's current wholesale, retail and e-commerce operations. The License Agreement contains an initial ten-year term and eight ten-year renewal options allowing VNCE to renew the agreement.
*Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to reporting financial results in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided, with respect to the financial results relating to three and six months ended July 29, 2023, adjusted income (loss) from operations, adjusted income (loss) before income taxes and equity in net income of equity method investment, adjusted (benefit) provision for income taxes, adjusted income (loss) before equity in net income of equity method investment, adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted earnings (loss) per share, which are non-GAAP measures, in order to eliminate the effect of the Vince IP Sale Gain, Transaction Expenses, the Parker IP Sale Gain and the Discrete Tax Benefit. The Company believes that the presentation of these non-GAAP measures facilitates an understanding of the Company's continuing operations without the impact associated with the aforementioned items. While these types of events can and do recur periodically, they are excluded from the indicated financial information due to their impact on the comparability of earnings across periods. Non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP results has been provided in Exhibit 3 to this press release.
