Rocky Brands, Inc. Announces Third Quarter 2024 Results
NELSONVILLE, Ohio--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Rocky Brands, Inc. (NASDAQ: RCKY) today announced financial results for its third quarter ended September 30, 2024.
Third Quarter 2024 Overview
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
"While cautious consumer spending outside of peak shopping periods and warm, dry weather acted as headwinds this quarter, the underlying strength of our business remains intact," said Jason Brooks, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer. “The benefits of our multi-brand, multi-channel model were evident in the third quarter as double digit sales growth in both our Durango brand and our Lehigh CustomFit safety footwear platform partially offset Wholesale declines primarily within our work, outdoor and commercial military categories. Based on our current order book for 2025, we believe this softness is transitory and that recent brand and marketing investments, along with our improved capital structure, have the Company well positioned to drive sustainable, profitable growth and long-term shareholder value."
Third Quarter 2024 Review
Third quarter net sales decreased 8.8% to $114.6 million compared with $125.6 million in the third quarter of 2023. Excluding certain non-recurring sales relating to the manufacturing of Servus product following the divestiture of the Servus brand, the change to a distributor model in Canada in November 2023, and temporarily elevated commercial military footwear sales to a single customer throughout 2023, net sales decreased 2.4% year-over-year. Wholesale sales for the third quarter were $84.0 million, down 15.7% compared to the third quarter of 2023, or 9.7% excluding the aforementioned non-recurring sales. Retail sales for the third quarter increased 9.2%, or 11.8% excluding the non-recurring sales related to the change in the Canadian distribution model, to $26.8 million compared to the third quarter of 2023. Contract Manufacturing sales were $3.8 million in the third quarter of 2024 compared to $1.4 million in the prior year period, or up $3.4 million excluding the aforementioned non-recurring sales.
Gross margin in the third quarter of 2024 was $43.6 million, or 38.1% of net sales, compared to $46.5 million, or 37.0% of net sales, for the same period last year. The 110-basis point increase in gross margin as a percentage of net sales was due to a higher mix of Retail segment sales which carry higher gross margins than the Wholesale and Contract Manufacturing segments.
Operating expenses were $33.6 million, or 29.3% of net sales, for the third quarter of 2024 compared to $32.3 million, or 25.7% of net sales, for the same period a year ago. Excluding $0.7 million of acquisition-related amortization in the third quarter of 2024 and $1.5 million of costs related to closure of a manufacturing facility, acquisition-related amortization, and restructuring costs in the third quarter of 2023, adjusted operating expenses were $32.9 million in the current year period and $30.7 million in the year-ago period. This increase was primarily attributable to incremental brand building and advertising programs to support future growth. As a percentage of net sales, adjusted operating expense were 28.7% in the third quarter 2024 compared with 24.5% in the year-ago period.
Income from operations for the third quarter of 2024 was $10.1 million, or 8.8% of net sales compared to $14.3 million or 11.4% of net sales for the same period a year ago. Adjusted operating income for the third quarter of 2024 was $10.8 million, or 9.4% of net sales compared to adjusted operating income of $15.8 million, or 12.6% of net sales a year ago.
Interest expense for the third quarter of 2024 was $3.3 million compared with $5.8 million a year ago. The decrease was driven by lower debt levels and interest rates as a result of the debt refinancing completed in April 2024.
The Company reported third quarter net income of $5.3 million, or $0.70 per diluted share compared to $6.8 million, or $0.93 per diluted share in the third quarter of 2023. Adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2024 was $5.8 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, compared to $8.0 million, or $1.09 per diluted share, in the year-ago period.
Balance Sheet Review
Cash and cash equivalents were $3.7 million at September 30, 2024 compared to $4.2 million on the same date a year ago.
Inventories at September 30, 2024 were $171.8 million, down 11.8% from $194.7 million on the same date a year ago.
Total debt, net of unamortized debt issuance costs of $2.4 million, at September 30, 2024 was $150.3 million consisting of a $47.2 million senior term loan and $105.5 million of borrowings under the Company's revolving credit facility. Compared with September 30, 2023 and December 31, 2023, total debt at September 30, 2024 was down 29.7% and 13.2%, respectively.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to GAAP financial measures, we present the following non-GAAP financial measures: "non-GAAP adjusted net sales," "non-GAAP adjusted costs of goods sold," "non-GAAP adjusted gross margin," "non-GAAP adjusted operating expenses," "non-GAAP adjusted operating income," "non-GAAP adjusted interest expense and other - net," "non-GAAP adjusted net income," and "non-GAAP adjusted net income per share." Adjusted results exclude the impact of items that management believes affect the comparability or underlying business trends in our consolidated financial statements in the periods presented. We believe that these non-GAAP measures are useful to management and investors and other users of our consolidated financial statements as an additional tool for evaluating operating performance. We believe they also provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our operations.
Investors should not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. See "Reconciliation of GAAP Measures to Non-GAAP Measures" accompanying this press release.
Non-GAAP adjustment or measure |
Definition |
Usefulness to management and investors |
Returns relating to supplier dispute |
Returns relating to supplier dispute consist of returns of product produced by a manufacturing supplier. |
We excluded these returns for calculating certain non-GAAP measures because these returns are inconsistent in size with our normal course of business and were unique to a resolved dispute with a manufacturing supplier. These adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to past operating performance and provide investors with additional means to evaluate net sales trends. |
Supplier dispute inventory adjustment |
Supplier dispute inventory adjustment consists of an inventory adjustment to cost of goods sold for product produced by a manufacturing supplier. |
We excluded this inventory adjustment to cost of goods sold for calculating certain non-GAAP measures because this adjustment is noncustomary and was unique to a resolved dispute with a manufacturing supplier. This adjustment facilitates a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to past operating performance and provides investors with additional means to evaluate net cost of goods sold trends. |
Acquisition-related amortization |
Amortization of acquisition-related intangible assets consists of amortization of intangible assets such as brands and customer relationships acquired in connection with the acquisition of the performance and lifestyle footwear business of Honeywell International Inc. Charges related to the amortization of these intangibles are recorded in operating expenses in our GAAP financial statements. Amortization charges are recorded over the estimated useful life of the related acquired intangible asset, and thus are generally recorded over multiple years. |
We excluded amortization charges for our acquisition-related intangible assets for purposes of calculating certain non-GAAP measures because these charges are inconsistent in size and are significantly impacted by the valuation of our acquisition. These adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to past operating performance and provide investors with additional means to evaluate cost and expense trends. |
Closure of Manufacturing Facility |
Closure of manufacturing facility relates to the expenses and overhead incurred associated with closing our Rock Island manufacturing facility. |
We excluded costs associated with the closure of our manufacturing facility for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures because these costs did not reflect our current operating performance. These adjustments facilitated a useful evaluation of our current operating performance and comparison to past operating results and provided investors with additional means to evaluate expense trends. |
Restructuring Costs |
Restructuring costs represent severance expenses associated with headcount reductions following the integration of the acquired performance and lifestyle footwear business of Honeywell International Inc. in 2022 and the sale of Servus in 2023. |
We excluded restructuring costs for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures because these costs do not reflect our current operating performance. These adjustments facilitate a useful evaluation of our current operations performance and comparisons to past operating results and provide investors with additional means to evaluate expense trends. |
Term debt extinguishment costs |
Term debt extinguishment costs relate to the loss incurred on the extinguishment of debt during the second quarter 2024. The prepayment penalty associated with the early termination of the term debt, as well as the accelerated amortization of deferred financing fees of the term debt, was recorded as expense within Interest Expense and Other - net accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements. |
We excluded these costs for purposes of calculating non-GAAP measures because these costs do not reflect our current operating performance. This adjustment is a one-time cost for refinancing the term debt and is not reoccurring. This adjustment facilitates a useful evaluation of our current operations performance and comparisons to past operating results and provide investors with additional means to evaluate expense trends. |
Gain on sale of business |
Gain on sale of business relates to the sale of the brand Servus. This includes the disposal of non-financial assets and corresponding expenses relating to the sale of the brand along with assets held at our Rock Island manufacturing facility. |
We excluded the disposition of non-financial assets and related expenses for purposes of calculating certain non-GAAP measures because the gain does not accurately reflect our current operating performance and comparisons to past operating results and provide investors with additional means to evaluate cost trends. |
