HIGHLIGHTS FOR THE SECOND FISCAL QUARTER
Revenue Highlights
The Company's net sales performance for the quarter was driven primarily by a comparable store sales decline. Net sales mix and comparable store sales percentage changes by product category for the three and six month periods ended September 30, 2016 and 2015 were as follows:

Gross Margin Highlights
The Company's gross profit margin, expressed as gross profit as a percentage of net sales, increased for the three month period ended September 30, 2016 to 28.7% from 28.5% for the comparable prior year period.
- The Company's increase in gross profit margin for the period was due to a favorable sales mix shift to product categories with higher gross profit margin rates, in addition to higher gross margin rates in consumer electronics offset by decreased gross margin rates in appliances and home products.
Cost Structure Highlights
The Company continues to manage its cost structure to align with its expected sales levels and to keep the Company positioned for EBITDA growth.
- The decrease in advertising expense of $4.5 million in the second fiscal quarter was due to a reduction of gross advertising spend driven by continued efficiency and effectiveness in our advertising spend.
-
The increase in SG&A as a percentage of net sales to 25.9% from 23.3%
for the three month comparable prior year period was primarily a
result of:
- Increase of 103 basis points in delivery services primarily due to the increased number of deliveries in all categories due to free delivery promotions;
- Increase of 59 basis points in occupancy costs due to increased utilities and the deleveraging effect of net sales decline;
- Increase of 50 basis points for costs associated with our logistics optimization project; and
- Increase of 42 basis points in wages primarily due to the deleveraging effect of net sales decline.
- In order to achieve greater profitability and reduce expenses, the Company closed all five stores in the under performing Wisconsin market.
Asset Impairment
The Company continues to invest in its store layouts to better showcase its selections of appliances, consumer electronics and home products. For certain locations that were previously evaluated and fully impaired due to declining sales and profitability, the Company performed another evaluation of these locations as of September 30, 2016. Twenty-two stores with an aggregate net book value of $2.1 million were reduced to an estimated aggregate fair value of $0.7 million based on their projected cash flows, discounted at 15%. This resulted in a non-cash asset impairment charge of $1.4 million for the three months ended September 30, 2016. The fair values were determined using a probability based cash flow analysis based on management's estimates of future store-level sales, gross margins, and direct expenses.

The Company believes that the non-GAAP measures described below provide meaningful information to assist shareholders in understanding its financial results and assessing its prospects for future performance. Management believes adjusted net loss, adjusted net loss per diluted share, EBITDA, and Adjusted EBITDA are important indicators of its operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of or are unrelated to its core operating results and provide a baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying businesses. Management makes standard adjustments for items such as non-cash asset impairments, consulting fees, severance costs, costs associated with its logistics optimization, store closure costs, as well as adjustments for other items that may arise during the period and have a meaningful impact on comparability.
The below information provides reconciliations from net loss, the most comparable financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in U.S. ("GAAP"), to non-GAAP financial measures. The Company has provided non-GAAP financial measures, which are not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in the accompanying earnings release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for, or as an alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in the earnings release. The non-GAAP financial measures in the accompanying earnings release may differ from similar measures used by other companies.
EBITDA represents net loss before income tax expense, interest income, interest expense, depreciation and amortization. The Company has presented EBITDA because it considers it an important supplemental measure of its performance and believes it is frequently used by analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in its industry. Management uses EBITDA as a measurement tool for evaluating its actual operating performance compared to budget and prior periods. EBITDA is not a measure of performance under US GAAP and should not be considered as a substitute for net loss prepared in accordance with GAAP. EBITDA has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider these in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results as reported under GAAP.
Some of the limitations of EBITDA measures are:
- EBITDA does not reflect the Company's cash expenditures, or future requirements, for capital expenditures or contractual commitments;
- EBITDA does not reflect interest expense or the cash requirements necessary to service interest payments on the Company's debt;
- EBITDA does not reflect tax expense or the cash requirements necessary to pay for tax obligations; and
- Although depreciation and amortization are non-cash charges, the asset being depreciated and amortized will often have to be replaced in the future, and EBITDA does not reflect any cash requirements for such replacements.
The Company compensates for these limitations by relying primarily on its GAAP results and using EBITDA only as a supplement.
