As announced earlier today in a separate press release, Sue Gove has been named Interim Chief Executive Officer, replacing Mark Tritton, who will leave his role as President and Chief Executive Officer and as a member of the Board. 

Ms. Gove commented, "I step into this role keenly aware of the macro-economic environment. In the quarter there was an acute shift in customer sentiment and, since then, pressures have materially escalated. This includes steep inflation and fluctuations in purchasing patterns, leading to significant dislocation in our sales and inventory that we will be working to actively resolve. The simple reality though is that our first quarter's results are not up to our expectations, nor are they reflective of the Company's true potential. The initiatives we are instituting today are just the first steps in putting our business on firm footing to drive our future success. I look forward to working with the Board, the management team, and our Associates to immediately address our supply chain challenges, market share recapture, inventory and cash optimization, and cost structure alignment."

    • buybuy BABY Comparable1 Sales of down mid-single digits commensurate with current market decline; Market share remains stable
  • GAAP Gross Margin of 23.9%; Adjusted2 Gross Margin of 23.8%
    • Adjusted2 Gross Margin reflects 840bps of negative transient costs vs. Q1 2021
    • Transient costs reflect the impact of an inventory markdown reserve of (620bps) and supply chain-related port fees of (220bps)
    • Excluding the aforementioned 840bps of transient costs, Q1 Adjusted2 Gross Margin of 32.2%
  • Cash Flow from Operations of approximately $(0.4) billion, Cash Flow from Investing Activities of $(0.1) billion and Cash Flow from Financing Activities of $0.2 billion

Fiscal 2022 First Quarter Results (ending May 28, 2022)

Net sales of $1,463M declined (25)%, reflecting a Comparable1 Sales decline of (23)% and (2)% related to the impact from fleet optimization activity.

  • By channel, Comparable1 Sales declined (24)% in Stores and (21)% in Digital versus the fiscal 2021 first quarter.
  • Bed Bath & Beyond banner Comparable1 Sales decreased (27)% compared to the prior year period. Results exclude the impact from the Company's previously announced store fleet optimization program, which began in the second half of fiscal 2020.
  • The buybuy BABY banner Comparable1 Sales decreased in the mid-single digits compared to the Fiscal 2021 first quarter consistent with market trends.

GAAP Gross Margin was 23.9% for the quarter. Excluding special items, Adjusted2 Gross Margin was 23.8%, inclusive of transient costs associated with a 620 basis point negative impact from markdown inventory reserves and 220 basis point negative impact from supply chain-related port fees compared to last year.  Excluding the aforementioned 840 basis points of transient costs, Q1 Adjusted2 Gross Margin was 32.2%.  The Company is proactively working with suppliers to adjust future inventory receipts and accelerating markdowns in order to right-size inventory levels commensurate with the declining sales trends.

SG&A expense on both a GAAP and Adjusted2 basis remain at lower levels compared to the prior year period, primarily due to cost reductions and lower rent and occupancy expenses on a lower store base following the Company's fleet optimization program.  SG&A Margin for the quarter increased on a GAAP and Adjusted2 basis versus last year due to lower Net Sales. Bed Bath & Beyond is in the midst of further refining its supply chain infrastructure and adjusting cost structure to reflect lower sales levels. At the same time, the Company is pausing its new store and remodel programs for the remainder of fiscal 2022 which is expected to reduce its Fiscal 2022 planned capital expenditures by a minimum of approximately $100 million to $300 million from a prior expectation of approximately $400 million.

Adjusted2 EBITDA for the period was ($224) million reflecting lower Net Sales and lower Adjusted2 Gross Margin.

Net Loss per diluted share of ($4.49) for the quarter reflected approximately $1.66 of special items for the quarter. Excluding special items, AdjustedNet Loss per diluted share was ($2.83). Special items during the first quarter included restructuring and costs associated with the Company's transformation initiatives.  Adjusted2 Net Loss per diluted share also reflects an income tax benefit on the Company's Adjusted2 Pre-Tax Loss.

During the quarter, the Company reported operating cash flow of approximately $(0.4) billion. Investing cash flow of $(0.1) billion was primarily driven by planned capital expenditures in connection with store remodels, supply chain and information technology systems. 

Cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash and investments totaled approximately $0.2 billion in the Fiscal 2022 first quarter. Total Liquiditywas approximately $0.9 billion as of the Fiscal 2022 first quarter, including the Company's asset based revolving credit facility less borrowings of $0.2 billion. 

Fiscal 2022 Outlook Commentary

At this time, the Company is providing the following outlook parameters for Fiscal 2022:

–  Sequential Comparable1 Sales recovery to occur in the second half of Fiscal 2022 versus the first half of Fiscal 2022 driven by inventory optimization plans, including incremental clearance activity

–  Adjusted2 SG&A expense for Fiscal 2022 below last year, reflecting aggressive actions to align cost structure to sales

–  Capital Expenditures of approximately $300 million (from $400 million previously) for Fiscal 2022, reflecting a minimum reduction of $100 million

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The following table reconciles non-GAAP financial measures presented in this press release or that may be presented on the Company's first quarter conference call with analysts and investors. The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide management, analysts, investors and other users of the Company's financial information with meaningful supplemental information regarding the performance of the Company's business. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, but in addition to other financial measures prepared by the Company in accordance with GAAP, including comparisons of year-to-year results. The Company's method of determining these non-GAAP financial measures may be different from other companies' methods and, therefore, may not be comparable to those used by other companies. As such, the Company does not recommend the sole use of these non-GAAP measure to assess its financial and earnings performance. For reasons noted above, the Company is presenting certain non-GAAP financial measures for its Fiscal 2022 first quarter. In order for investors to be able to more readily compare the Company's performance across periods, the Company has included comparable reconciliations for the 2021 period in the reconciliation tables below. The Company is not providing a reconciliation of its guidance with respect to Adjusted EBITDA because the Company is unable to provide this reconciliation without unreasonable effort due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty of predicting the occurrence, the financial impact, and the periods in which the adjustments may be recognized. For the same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.
