Comparable sales up 61.2% on an owned basis and up 62.2% on an owned-plus-licensed basis versus 2020; up 5.8% and up 5.9%, respectively, versus 2019
Diluted EPS of $1.08 and Adjusted diluted EPS of $1.29
Raises full-year and back-half guidance on both the top and bottom lines
Reinstates dividend and authorizes share repurchase program
Performance reflects continued execution of Polaris strategy coupled with the macroeconomic recovery
Macy’s, Inc. (NYSE: M) today reported results for the second quarter of 2021, raised guidance for fiscal 2021 and announced plans to return capital to shareholders.
“Second quarter results were strong across all three nameplates and surpassed our expectations. Our momentum in the first quarter accelerated in the second quarter as we successfully reengaged core customers and attracted new, younger customers with new brands and categories,” said Jeff Gennette, chairman and chief executive officer of Macy’s, Inc. “Through the Macy’s, Inc. portfolio and our omnichannel approach, we provide a compelling, seamless integration between physical stores and digital shopping to most effectively meet the needs of our customers."
"The Polaris strategy is working. We have meaningfully improved the fundamentals and overall health of our business, and we are well underway building a stronger Macy’s, Inc. for the future," Gennette continued.
Enhancing Shareholder Value
Macy’s, Inc. ended the second quarter with approximately $2.1 billion in cash, allowing the company to execute on its two priorities of investing in profitable growth, while de-levering the balance sheet. The strong cash position will also allow the company to return capital to shareholders through the following actions:
-
The company is reinstating its regular quarterly dividend at 15 cents per share on Macy's, Inc.’s common stock, resulting in an annual return of cash to shareholders of nearly $200 million.
- The dividend is payable on October 1, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 15.
- The company’s board of directors has authorized a $500 million share repurchase program.
- Additionally, as previously announced, the company voluntarily repaid $1.3 billion in Senior Secured Notes on August 17, 2021. With this action, Macy’s, Inc. now expects to exceed its target leverage ratio and achieve a ratio of no more than 2.5x by the end of fiscal 2021.
“While there is still uncertainty due to the ongoing pandemic, the increased traction of the Polaris strategy and our strong performance in the second quarter gives us the confidence to materially increase full-year guidance. We are also increasing our long-term Adjusted EBITDA margin target to remain in the low-double digits beginning next year. We are now well positioned to strengthen our business, enhance our long-term financial stability and return capital to our shareholders,” said Adrian Mitchell, chief financial officer of Macy’s, Inc.

MACY’S, INC.
Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Notes:
(1) |
As a result of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 and 26 weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the fiscal year. |
|
|
(2) |
Expense of $242 million was recognized during the 13 weeks ended August 1, 2020, primarily related to restructuring and other costs, including severance of $154 million associated with a reduction in force in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. |
|
|
The 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 also included non-cash impairment charges totaling $3.2 billion, which consisted of $3.1 billion of a non-cash goodwill impairment charge and $80 million impairment charge on long-lived tangible and right of use assets. |
|
|
|
(3) |
Income tax expense of $105 million and $142 million, or 23% and 24% of pretax income, for the 13 and 26 weeks ended July 31, 2021, respectively, reflect a different effective tax rate as compared to the company’s federal income tax statutory rate of 21% driven primarily by the impact of state and local taxes. |
|
|
The income tax benefits of $298 million and $874 million, or 40.9% and 17.9% of pretax loss, for the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020, respectively, reflected a different projected benefit rate as compared to the company's federal income tax statutory rate of 21% due to the carryback of net operating losses as permitted under the CARES Act. For the 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020, the benefit of the available carryback of net operating losses was offset by the impact of the non-tax deductible component of the goodwill impairment charge and additional income tax expense associated with the deferred tax remeasurement recognized during the first quarter of 2020. |
|
|
|
(4) |
Gross margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales. |
|
|
(5) |
Restricted cash of $78 million and $7 million have been included with cash and cash equivalents for the 26 weeks ended July 31, 2021 and August 1, 2020, respectively. |
|
|
(6) |
Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of July 31, 2021 include an income tax receivable of $520 million. |
|
|
(7) |
As of July 31, 2021, short-term debt includes $1.3 billion in principal amount senior secured notes, net of related deferred financing costs, that were redeemed on August 17, 2021, prior to their original 2025 maturity date. |
MACY’S, INC.
Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the company's financial information with additional useful information in evaluating operating performance. Management believes that providing supplemental changes in comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis, which includes adjusting for the impact of comparable sales of departments licensed to third parties, assists in evaluating the company's ability to generate sales growth, whether through owned businesses or departments licensed to third parties, and in evaluating the impact of changes in the manner in which certain departments are operated. Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure which the company believes provides meaningful information about its operational efficiency by excluding the impact of changes in tax law and structure, debt levels and capital investment. In addition, management believes that excluding certain items from EBITDA, net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share that are not associated with the company’s core operations and that may vary substantially in frequency and magnitude from period-to-period provides useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating the company's ability to generate earnings and to more readily compare these metrics between past and future periods.
The company does not provide reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA and diluted earnings per share to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because the timing and amount of excluded items are unreasonably difficult to fully and accurately estimate. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the company's actual and future financial condition and performance. Additionally, the amounts received by the company on account of sales of departments licensed to third parties are limited to commissions received on such sales. The methods used by the company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

Represents the period-to-period percentage change in net sales from stores in operation during the 13 and 26 weeks ended July 31, 2021 and the 13 and 26 weeks ended August 1, 2020 and August 3, 2019, respectively. Such calculation includes all digital sales and excludes commissions from departments licensed to third parties. Stores impacted by a natural disaster or undergoing significant expansion or shrinkage remain in the comparable sales calculation unless the store, or material portion of the store, is closed for a significant period of time. No stores have been excluded as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales may differ among companies in the retail industry. |
(9) |
Represents the impact of including the sales of departments licensed to third parties occurring in stores in operation throughout the year presented and the immediately preceding year and all online sales in the calculation of comparable sales. The company licenses third parties to operate certain departments in its stores and online and receives commissions from these third parties based on a percentage of their net sales. In its financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP, the company includes these commissions (rather than sales of the departments licensed to third parties) in its net sales. The company does not, however, include any amounts in respect of licensed department sales (or any commissions earned on such sales) in its comparable sales in accordance with GAAP (i.e., on an owned basis). The amounts of commissions earned on sales of departments licensed to third parties are not material to its net sales for the periods presented. |
