“The Ulta Beauty team delivered strong results for the second quarter. This performance reflects the recovery of the beauty category, investments and choices we’ve made over the last year to adapt to the market disruption and strengthen our leadership position, and the ongoing efforts of our associates to deliver great experiences for our guests,” said Dave Kimbell, chief executive officer. “Our value proposition is strong, and we are evolving and innovating to lead in the new beauty landscape, capture additional market share, and drive profitable growth.”

For the Second Quarter of Fiscal 2021

  • Net sales increased 60.2% to $2.0 billion compared to $1.2 billion in the second quarter of fiscal 2020 due to the favorable impact from stronger consumer confidence and fewer COVID-19 restrictions, compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
  • Comparable sales (sales for stores open at least 14 months, including stores temporarily closed due to COVID-19, and e-commerce sales) increased 56.3% compared to a decrease of 26.7% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, driven by a 52.5% increase in transactions and a 2.5% increase in average ticket. Compared to the second quarter of fiscal 2019, comparable sales increased 13.1%.
  • Gross profit increased to $798.0 million compared to $329.0 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 40.6% compared to 26.8% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, primarily due to leverage of fixed costs, improvement in merchandise margins, favorable channel mix shifts, and leverage of salon expenses.
  • Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased to $464.3 million compared to $271.6 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 23.6% compared to 22.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020, due to deleverage related to higher store payroll and benefits primarily due to less employee retention credits received under the CARES Act, and higher marketing expense, partially offset by leverage of corporate overhead and store expenses due to higher sales.
  • There were no impairment, restructuring and other costs in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $40.8 million in the second quarter of 2020.
  • Pre-opening expenses decreased to $1.4 million compared to $3.9 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020.
  • Operating income increased to $332.3 million, or 16.9% of net sales, compared to $12.8 million, or 1.1% of net sales, in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Adjusted operating income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $54.9 million, or 4.5% of net sales.
  • Tax rate increased to 24.4% compared to 20.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The higher effective tax rate is primarily due to a decrease in the benefit of state tax credits as a result of an increase in pretax income.
  • Net income was $250.9 million compared to $8.1 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Adjusted net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $41.5 million.
  • Diluted earnings per share was $4.56, including a $0.04 benefit due to income tax accounting for share-based compensation, compared to $0.14 in the second quarter of fiscal 2020. Adjusted diluted earnings per share for the second quarter of fiscal 2020 was $0.73.

For the First Six Months of Fiscal 2021

  • Net sales increased 62.7% to $3.9 billion compared to $2.4 billion in the first six months of fiscal 2020, primarily due to the favorable impact from improving consumer confidence, government stimulus payments, and the easing of COVID-19 restrictions, as compared to the first six months of fiscal 2020.
  • Comparable sales increased 60.9% compared to a decrease of 31.1% in the first six months of fiscal 2020, driven by a 52.5% increase in transactions and a 5.5% increase in average ticket. Compared to the first six months of fiscal 2019, comparable sales increased 10.0%.
  • Gross profit increased to $1.6 billion compared to $632.6 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.7% compared to 26.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2020, primarily due to leverage of fixed costs, improvement in merchandise margins, leverage of salon expenses, and favorable channel mix shifts.
  • SG&A expenses increased to $908.2 million compared to $652.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses decreased to 23.3% compared to 27.2% in the first six months of fiscal 2020, due to leverage of corporate overhead and store expenses due to higher sales, partially offset by deleverage related to higher store payroll and benefits primarily due to less employee retention credits received under the CARES Act, and higher marketing expense.
  • There were no impairment, restructuring and other costs recognized in the first six months of fiscal 2021, compared to $60.3 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020.
  • Pre-opening expenses decreased to $5.9 million compared to $8.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020.
  • Operating income increased to $637.6 million, or 16.3% of net sales, compared to an operating loss of $88.7 million, or (3.7)% of net sales, in the first six months of fiscal 2020. Adjusted operating loss for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $27.0 million, or (1.1)% of net sales.
  • Tax rate increased to 24.4% compared to 23.9% in the first six months of fiscal 2020. The higher effective tax rate is primarily due to a decrease in the benefit of state tax credits as a result of an increase in pretax income.
  • Net income was $481.2 million compared to a net loss of $70.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2020. Adjusted net loss for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $23.5 million.
  • Diluted earnings per share was $8.66, including a $0.07 benefit due to income tax accounting for share-based compensation, compared to a diluted loss per share of $1.25 in the first six months of fiscal 2020. Adjusted diluted loss per share for the first six months of fiscal 2020 was $0.42.

Balance Sheet

Cash and cash equivalents at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021 were $770.1 million.

Merchandise inventories, net at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2021 totaled $1.44 billion compared to $1.37 billion at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2020. The $75.14 million increase in inventory was primarily due to the addition of 32 net new stores opened since August 1, 2020, the opening of the Jacksonville, FL fast fulfillment center, and increased purchases to support strong demand.

Share Repurchase Program

During the second quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company repurchased 746,367 shares of its common stock at a cost of $243.5 million. During the first six months of fiscal 2021, the Company repurchased 1,989,576 shares of its common stock at a cost of $635.8 million. As of July 31, 2021, $886.2 million remained available under the $1.6 billion share repurchase program announced in March 2020.

A reconciliation of adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss), and adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share is provided in this release. The Company believes the presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures provides additional information on comparisons between periods by excluding certain items that affect overall comparability and provides investors with enhanced visibility into its results with respect to the impact of certain costs. Non-GAAP financial measures should be considered in addition to, and not as an alternative for, the Company’s reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
