Delta Apparel Reports Second Quarter Fiscal 2024 Results

Delta Apparel, Inc. (NYSE American: DLA), a provider of core activewear, lifestyle apparel, and on-demand digital print strategies, today announced financial results for its fiscal year 2024 second quarter ended March 30, 2024.

For the second quarter ended March 30, 2024:

  • Net sales were $78.9 million compared to prior year period net sales of $110.3 million. Salt Life Group segment net sales were $15.5 million compared to prior year period net sales of $18.9 million. Net sales in the Delta Group segment were $63.4 million compared to $91.3 million in the prior year period.
  • Gross margins were 4.3% compared to 14.7% in the prior year period, driven primarily by production curtailments in the Delta Group segment. Adjusted for the cost impacts of these product curtailments (“Production Curtailment Costs”), first quarter gross margins were 14.4%. Delta Group segment gross margins were (6.3%) compared to 5.5% in the prior year period. Adjusted for the Production Curtailment Costs, Delta Group segment gross margins were 6.3%. Salt Life Group segment gross margins were 47.5% versus 59% in the prior year period, driven primarily by price discounting activity and the timing of inventory receipts.
  • Selling, general, and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) decreased from $19.3 million in the prior year period to $17.9 million, while SG&A as a percentage of sales increased over the prior year period to 22.8%.
  • Operating loss increased from $5.3 million in the prior year period to $24.4 million. Adjusting for the Production Curtailment Costs, the costs associated with strategic restructuring actions (the “Restructuring Costs”), and an $8.8 million non-cash impairment charge on the goodwill in our DTG2Go business (the “Impairment Charge”), operating loss was $6.0 million. Delta Group segment operating loss increased from $7.4 million to $22.4 million. Adjusted for the Production Curtailment Costs, Restructuring Costs, and Impairment Charge, Delta Group segment operating loss was $3.9 million. Operating income in the Salt Life Group segment was $197 thousand compared to $4.6 million in the prior year period.
  • Net interest expense was $3.5 million compared to $3.7 million in the prior year period, with the decrease driven by lower borrowings partially offset by the elevated interest rate environment.
  • Earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) was a loss of $20.9 million. Adjusted for the Production Curtailment Costs, Restructuring Costs, and Impairment Charge, EBITDA was a loss of $2.4 million. Delta Group segment EBITDA was a loss of $19.4 million. Adjusted for the Production Curtailment Costs, Restructuring Costs, and Impairment Charge, Delta Group segment EBITDA was a loss of $1.0 million. Salt Life Group segment EBITDA was $744 thousand.
  • Net loss increased to $36.3 million, or $5.15 per share, from a net loss of $7.0 million, or $1.00 per share. Adjusted for the Production Curtailment Costs, Restructuring Costs, and Impairment Charge, net loss was $17.8 million, or $2.53 per share.
  • Net inventory as of March 30, 2024, was $156.9 million, a year-over-year decrease of 35% from inventory of $243.2 million at March 2023 and a sequential decrease of almost 40% from inventory of $258.9 million at December 2022.
  • Debt outstanding under our U.S. revolving credit facility was $95.8 million at March 30, 2024, a year-over-year reduction of $57.4 million from March 2023. Total net debt, including capital lease financing and cash on hand, was $126.2 million as of March 30, 2024, an approximately 35% reduction from $194.3 million at March 2023.
  • Cash on hand and availability under our U.S. revolving credit facility totaled $11.8 million as of March 30, 2024, an increase of $4.4 million from December 2023 and a decrease of $2.4 million from September 2023.
  • Capital spending was $200 thousand during the second quarter compared to $2 million during the prior year second quarter.
