FORT WAYNE, Ind., June 08, 2022 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) — Vera Bradley, Inc. (Nasdaq: VRA) today announced its financial results for the first quarter ended April 30, 2022.
In this release, Vera Bradley, Inc. or “the Company” refers to the entire enterprise and includes both the Vera Bradley and Pura Vida brands. Vera Bradley on a stand-alone basis refers to the Vera Bradley brand.
First Quarter Comments
Rob Wallstrom, Chief Executive Officer of the Company, noted, “While total Company first quarter revenues of $98.5 million fell below our expectations and resulted in a net loss, before certain charges, of $0.19 per diluted share, we continued implementation of our price increases which helped offset logistics and sourcing pressures, continued to drive product innovation, controlled expenses, and completed $10.5 million of share repurchases, while maintaining a strong, debt-free balance sheet.
“We are clearly seeing a bifurcation in the spending of our customer base. At Vera Bradley, Direct Channel full-line revenues were above last year as customers with higher household incomes remained engaged and spent more than last year. We also saw a healthy year-over-year rebound in Indirect Channel revenues. However, inflationary pressures, including rising gas prices, particularly impacted the spending of Vera Bradley full-line customers with household incomes below $55,000 as well as traffic and spending in our Vera Bradley Direct Channel factory stores for the quarter. In addition, Pura Vida’s ecommerce revenues continued to be significantly affected by the shift in social and digital media effectiveness and rising digital media costs.
“For the balance of the year, we are taking decisive actions to strengthen the enterprise and remain highly focused on our two core brands.
- On a Company-wide basis, we are:
- Meaningfully reducing our cost structure, targeting annual savings of $15 to $25 million.
- Continuing to evaluate and execute strategic price increases for both brands to offset rising raw material and freight costs, as appropriate.
- At the Vera Bradley brand, we remain confident in our core strategy, by continuing to:
- Innovate and build on our lifestyle merchandising strategy, with a laser focus on protecting the core, amplified by targeted marketing, by:
- Maximizing the travel category, which is nearly back to pre-pandemic levels.
- Optimizing back-to-campus opportunities, with strategic assortment enhancements.
- Continuing with successful product collaborations like Disney and adding new iconic partnerships including Star Wars, Coleman, and Tupperware.
- Expanding our footwear and home assortments this fall and holiday season.
- Innovate and build on our lifestyle merchandising strategy, with a laser focus on protecting the core, amplified by targeted marketing, by:
- At Pura Vida, we are focused on returning the brand to long-term growth.
- Our newly-hired Chief Growth Officer and Pura Vida leadership team will work to build a more diverse, innovative, effective, and performance-based marketing program by bolstering our internal marketing and data analytics talent and platform.
- We will open three additional retail store locations, building on the success of the first store opening in San Diego in 2021. Since opening, we continue to experience a double-digit differential in our San Diego ecommerce business relative to the rest of the country, demonstrating the power a retail presence has in driving digital sales, omni-channel loyalty, and spending. Stores will play a key role in driving new customer acquisition as we continue to diversify our marketing platforms.
- We will build customer excitement and engagement through collaborations like Disney and Hello Kitty, partnering with key influencers, and offering themed-collections centered around key events.”
Wallstrom continued. “We are preparing for the macro environment to remain challenging through the remainder of this year and into next year. And, despite the strength in Pura Vida’s store business and opportunity for new store growth, we know that it will take time to return the ecommerce business to growth as rebuilding the marketing platform and remixing the marketing program is underway. We are taking decisive actions that will further strengthen both core brands and our enterprise as a whole, not only to successfully manage through this period but position us for the future. Our teams are focused, and our cash position and balance sheet remain strong. We have successfully managed through challenging business cycles before, and I am confident we will manage through this period as well. We look forward to returning both brands to steady growth.”

On a non-GAAP basis, consolidated SG&A expense totaled $59.6 million, or 60.5% of net revenues, for the current quarter, compared to $60.1 million, or 55.1% of net revenues, for the prior year first quarter.
The Company’s first quarter consolidated operating loss totaled ($8.2) million, or (8.4%) of net revenues, compared to an operating loss of ($2.0) million, or (1.8%) of net revenues, in the prior year first quarter. On a non-GAAP basis, the consolidated operating loss totaled ($6.9) million, or (7.0%) of net revenues, compared to ($1.2) million, or (1.1%) of net revenues, in the prior year.

Cash, cash equivalents, and investments as of April 30, 2022 totaled $64.0 million compared to $52.7 million at the end of last year’s first quarter. The Company had no borrowings on its $75 million ABL credit facility at quarter end.
Total quarter-end inventory was $161.8 million, compared to $150.3 million at the end of the first quarter last year.
During the first quarter, the Company repurchased approximately $10.5 million of its common stock (approximately 1.4 million shares at an average price of $7.35). $35.3 million remains under the Company’s $50.0 million repurchase authorization that expires in December 2024.
Forward Outlook
Wallstrom also commented, "As we expect the challenging macroeconomic environment to continue for the balance of the year and that it will take time to return the Pura Vida ecommerce business to growth, we believe it is appropriate to lower our outlook for the fiscal year.”
Excluding net revenues, all forward-looking guidance numbers referenced below are non-GAAP. The prior year SG&A and earnings per diluted share numbers exclude the previously disclosed net charges related to intangible asset amortization. Current year guidance excludes previously disclosed intangible asset amortization, impairment, and any similar charges.
For Fiscal 2023, the Company’s updated expectations are as follows:
- Consolidated net revenues of $490 to $505 million. Net revenues totaled $540.5 million in Fiscal 2022. Year-over-year Vera Bradley revenues are expected to decline between 5% and 7%, and Pura Vida revenues are expected to decline between 12% and 16%.
- A consolidated gross profit percentage of 54.5% to 55.0% compared to 53.3% in Fiscal 2022. The potential year-over-year increase is primarily related to price increases, partially offset by incremental inbound and outbound freight expense.
- Consolidated SG&A expense of $248 to $253 million compared to $258.8 million in Fiscal 2022. The reduction in SG&A expense is being driven by cost reduction initiatives and a reduction in compensation expense, marketing, and other variable-related expenses due to the expected sales decline from the prior year.
- Consolidated operating income of $18.8 to $25.0 million compared to $30.1 million in Fiscal 2022.
- Consolidated diluted EPS of $0.35 to $0.50 based on diluted weighted-average shares outstanding of 32.1 million and an effective tax rate of between 23.0 and 24.0%. Diluted EPS totaled $0.57 last year.
- Net capital spending of approximately $10 to $12 million compared to $5.5 million in the prior year, reflecting investments associated with new Vera Bradley factory and Pura Vida store locations and technology and logistics enhancements.
Disclosure Regarding Non-GAAP Measures
The Company’s management does not, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider the supplemental non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). Further, the non-GAAP measures utilized by the Company may be unique to the Company, as they may be different from non-GAAP measures used by other companies.
The Company believes that the non-GAAP measures presented in this earnings release, including free cash flow; selling, general, and administrative expenses; operating loss; net loss; net loss attributable and available to Vera Bradley, Inc.; and diluted net loss per share available to Vera Bradley, Inc. common shareholders, along with the associated percentages of net revenues, are helpful to investors because they allow for a more direct comparison of the Company’s year-over-year performance and are consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance. A reconciliation of the non-GAAP measures to the most directly comparable GAAP measures can be found in the Company’s supplemental schedules included in this earnings release.
