Hamburg, November 9, 2010. The lifestyle company TOM TAILOR looks back on a
successful nine-month period in 2010: TOM TAILOR Holding AG increased its
group revenue during the period under review by 12.2% to EUR 248.8 million
(Q1-Q3 2009: EUR 221.9 million). Both its Wholesale segment and its Retail
growth segment played a part in this. During the third quarter, the Company
accelerated its growth and reported a revenue increase of 15.6% to EUR
101.5 million. As planned, adjusted net income for the period jumped
significantly from a negative EUR 7.1 million in the previous year to
positive income of EUR 6.5 million as of the end of September 2010.
The Retail segment contributed significantly to the increase in Group
revenue, climbing 37.5% to EUR 69.2 million during the first nine months of
2010 (Q1-Q3 2009: EUR 50.3 million). On a like-for-like basis, the Retail
segment grew 9.1% excluding the highly dynamic e-shops (18.3% e-shops). In
the third quarter, retail revenue rose from EUR 20.0 million to EUR 26.9
million (+34,5 %). On a like-for-like basis, Q3 revenue increased by a
strong 15.6% including e-shops (26.7% excluding e-shops). According to
information supplied by TextilWirtschaft, average market growth for the
textile industry in Germany was 4% during the first nine months of 2010
(source: TextilWirtschaft 40/2010). This means TOM TAILOR significantly
outperformed the average growth of the textile sector in Germany in the
first nine months of 2010. The Retail segment's share in total revenue for
the period amounted to 27.8% (Q1-Q3 2009: 22.7%). The number of proprietary
retail stores has increased by 29 since December 31, 2009, to 116 stores as
of the end of September 2010.
At EUR 179.6 million, revenue in the Wholesale segment in the first nine
months of 2010 was 4.7% above the level of the previous year (Q1-Q3 2009:
EUR 171.5 million). During the third quarter, this segment showed a revenue
increase of 10.0%, to EUR 74.6 million (Q3 2009: EUR 67.8 million).
'During the past nine months, we have consistently and successfully
implemented our growth strategy. Our growth activities are focused on
expanding our controlled retail sales areas and on systematically enhance
our international distribution network in our core markets in Germany,
Austria, Switzerland, the Benelux countries, and France, as well as
recently in eastern Europe. The targeted expansion of our proprietary
retail areas also serves to increase the visibility of our brands TOM
TAILOR Casual and TOM TAILOR Denim. In this way, we are creating the
optimal foundation to help us ensure the long-term profitability and
competitiveness of TOM TAILOR', commented Dieter Holzer, Chairman of the
Management Board of the TOM TAILOR Group.
Excluding one-time effects, TOM TAILOR's adjusted EBITDA rose by 24.3% to
EUR 29.2 million during the first nine months of 2010 (Q1-Q3 2009: EUR 23.5
million). The Company also managed to increase its adjusted EBITDA margin
again, which amounted to 11.8% (Q1-Q3 2009: 10.6%). One-time effects can
primarily be attributed to expenses incurred in connection with the IPO
during the first quarter of 2010. EBITDA in the Retail segment reached EUR
6.1 million (Q1-Q3 2009: EUR 4.7 million), while adjusted EBITDA in the
Wholesale segment came to EUR 23.2 million (Q1-Q3 2009: EUR 18.8 million).
The reported group EBITDA during the first nine months of 2010 was EUR 21.6
million (2009: 23.8 million).
During the third quarter of 2010, the adjusted EBITDA reached EUR 15.8
million, and was therefore consistent with last year's level; the margin
decreased to 15.6% (previous year: 18.0%). The cause of this development
were primarily production bottlenecks caused by the recovering global
economy and the increasing domestic demand for textiles in China as well as
increased cotton prices. The ensuing longer production times had to be
compensated in part by higher logistical and freight expenses. TOM TAILOR
views this effect on earnings as temporary and is acting on the assumption
that cotton production and demand conditions will normalize in the spring
of 2011 in connection with noticeably lower procurement and logistical
costs. At the same time, the Company has reconfirmed its strategy of
expanding its proprietary stores: its proprietary spaces allow for higher
margins as a result of greater control, in addition to making the company
better able to face price fluctuations on the purchase side.
The financial result as of the end of September 2010 amounted to a net
financial expense of EUR 10.3 million. Despite special charges related to
debt restructuring in the course of the IPO of approximately EUR 3.4
million, the financial result has improved almost EUR 4 million year on
year (Q1-Q3 2009: net financial expense of EUR 14.2 million).
Excluding one-time effects, net income for the period jumped by EUR 13.6
million to EUR 6.5 million, resulting in adjusted earnings per share of EUR
0.48. The adjusted net income for the third quarter of 2010 also improved
significantly by 127.9% to EUR 9.8 million (Q3 2009: EUR 4.3 million).
Lower interest charges after debt restructuring, the non-recurring
IPO-charges, and consistent cost management and continuous process
optimization also offer future potential for additional profitable growth.
The Management Board has adjusted the revenue forecast for 2010 to reflect
growth of over 12% year on year, accompanied by a moderate increase in the
absolute EBITDA. After eliminating the LBO-structure at the end of the
first quarter, the Management Board expects a significant improvement to
net income for the year after taxes.
TOM TAILOR's business model consciously combines the emotional added value
of its lifestyle brands with the strategic advantages of an intelligent
system provider ('Act Premium, Sell Volume'). The advantages of acting as a
system provider derive from TOM TAILOR's ability to swiftly adapt the
latest fashion trends and its commitment to offer high quality at
attractive prices. Development, design, and production of all TOM TAILOR
collections are facilitated through systematic sales-floor planning
tailored to the respective customer needs. For 2011, the Company is acting
on the assumption of stable private consumption and a slight additional
increase in economic development in its European core markets.
TOM TAILOR will consistently push forward with the profitable growth
strategy it has implemented. Its additional expansion will focus on its
Retail segment and on opening additional company-operated stores. Because
TOM TAILOR's owned and operated stores have not yet sufficiently penetrated
its core markets, there is still sufficient potential for future growth.
The Company has already laid the foundation for additional expansion during
the fourth quarter of this year by assuming all distribution activities for
Russia and Hungary in thebeginning of October, in order to establish even
more comprehensive coverage for TOM TAILOR in these markets, and to be able
to react more quickly and in a more directed manner to market conditions
there in the future. Furthermore, TOM TAILOR also entered into a joint
venture with the owner of its long-time partner Sportina in the beginning
of October. As a result, the 23 former franchise stores were converted into
proprietary retail stores. The goal of this strategic merger is forced
retail expansion in southeastern Europe, including Croatia, Slovenia and
Serbia. Five additional retail stores should also be opened by the end of
this year. Around 20 more new stores should then follow by the end of 2013.
In the wholesale segment sales space productivity is to be increased across
all product lines and controlled shop-in-shop sales areas and
franchise-stores expanded further. TOM TAILOR plans to accelerate expansion
in its key foreign markets in addition to its home market in Germany,
resulting in the reduction of country-related dependencies.
