WOLVERINE WORLDWIDE REPORTS THIRD-QUARTER RESULTS AND UPDATES FULL-YEAR REVENUE AND EARNINGS GUIDANCE
Rockford, Michigan, November 8, 2017 - Wolverine World Wide, Inc. (NYSE: WWW) today reported financial results for the third quarter ended September 30, 2017.
“We are very pleased to continue our positive momentum and report third quarter revenue and earnings that surpassed expectations. This marks the third consecutive quarter of strong results for the Company,” said Blake W. Krueger, Wolverine Worldwide’s Chairman, Chief Executive Officer and President. “We continue to make excellent progress on our enterprise wide strategic transformation, the WOLVERINE WAY FORWARD, including the recently announced sale of our Department of Defense business. Our third quarter results are reflective of this progress. This transformation is focused on elevating our most powerful brands with consumers, delivering continuous product innovation and sustained organic growth, and unlocking incremental operational efficiencies, all with an emphasis on pace and speed. We believe that the WOLVERINE WAY FORWARD will enable us to drive global growth in the "new normal" fast-changing global consumer retail environment.”
THIRD-QUARTER 2017 REVIEW
The highlights of the Company's third quarter financial performance are summarized below. The third quarter revenue and earnings per share amounts reflect the Company's revised quarterly calendar. To provide a better comparison to fiscal 2016, the Company has provided additional information regarding the impact of the calendar change within the reconciliation tables accompanying the earnings release.
• | Reported revenue of $581.3 million decreased 3.7% during the third quarter, but adjusted revenue decreased 8.0% after taking into effect the quarterly calendar change. Underlying revenue increased 1.1%. |
• | Reported gross margin was 39.7%, compared to 39.3% in the prior year. Adjusted gross margin on a constant currency basis was 40.4%, compared to 39.1% in the prior year, reflecting an improvement of 130 basis points despite a 90 basis point negative mix impact from store closures. |
• | Reported operating margin was 6.1%, compared to 11.4% in the prior year. Adjusted operating margin on a constant currency basis was 11.9% compared to 10.5% in the prior year. |
• | Reported diluted earnings per share were $0.24, compared to $0.49 in the prior year. Adjusted diluted earnings per share were $0.43. On a constant currency basis, adjusted earnings per share were $0.45, compared to $0.45 in the prior year. |

“Our proactive efforts, which began eighteen months ago, have gained traction leading to better-than-expected results. This is best demonstrated by solid revenue performance across our portfolio with most brands exceeding our revenue expectations and over-delivering on our operating profit targets for the quarter," stated Mike Stornant, Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. We managed our working capital well, with inventory down 26% at quarter end versus the prior year quarter. We believe the strength of our global brands combined with the continued operational discipline and implementation of the WOLVERINE WAY FORWARD leaves us well positioned to achieve our near-term growth and adjusted operating margin goals. We now expect full-year fiscal 2018 operating margin of 12%, ahead of our originally stated goal.
WOLVERINE WAY FORWARD TRANSFORMATION UPDATE
The Company continued to make progress on its comprehensive portfolio management initiatives including the following items:
• | In addition to the license of the Stride Rite brand to Vida Shoes International and the sale of the Sebago Brand announced earlier in the third quarter, on September 29, 2017, the Company sold its Department of Defense contract business and certain associated assets. |
• | The Company also continued to make progress in realigning its retail store fleet under the previously announced Store Restructuring Plan. The Company has closed 188 stores since the beginning of 2017. The Company expects an additional 27 store closings before the end of fiscal 2017, leaving a remaining retail store fleet of approximately 80 stores. |
• | The Company continues to prioritize growth and innovation by accelerating its investments in product innovation, consumer insights, demand creation, and the digital/social space. The Company also plans to focus on key international growth markets as it evolves its global footprint. |
FISCAL 2017 OUTLOOK
A strong third quarter, coupled with some stable trends in the business, have resulted in the following update to the Company's full-year 2017 outlook:
• | We are narrowing our revenue outlook to the upper end of our prior range and now expect reported revenue of $2.340 billion to $2.370 billion. This is a reported decline of approximately 6.2% to 5.0%, but underlying revenue is expected to be within the range of flat to growth of 1.5%, reflecting approximately $160.0 million revenue impact from retail store closures and the Stride Rite transition. |
• | Reported operating margin in the range of 5.0% to 5.4% and adjusted operating margin in the range of 10.6% to 10.9%, resulting from operational excellence initiatives focused on supply chain optimization, omnichannel transformation, and operational efficiencies. Fiscal 2016 adjusted operating margin was 8.5%. |
• | Reported diluted earnings per share in the range of $0.76 to $0.81 compared to $0.89 in fiscal 2016. Adjusted diluted earnings per share are now expected in the range of $1.60 to $1.65 compared to $1.36 in fiscal 2016 adjusted on the same basis. On a constant currency basis, adjusted earnings per share in the range of $1.67 to $1.72. |

* | To supplement the consolidated financial statements presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company describes what certain financial measures would have been if restructuring and impairment costs, incremental store inventory mark-downs and organizational transformation costs which include gains or losses from divestitures were excluded. The Company also describes underlying revenue, which excludes the impact of foreign exchange, the impact of retail store closures, the transition of Stride Rite® to a license business model and the impact of the additional week of operations included within the quarterly calendar change. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors to increase comparability to the prior period by adjusting for certain items that may not be indicative of core operating measures and to better identify trends in our business. The adjusted financial results are used by management to, and allow investors to, evaluate the operating performance of the Company on a comparable basis. The Company evaluates results of operations on both a reported and a constant currency basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company believes providing constant currency information provides valuable supplemental information regarding results of operations, consistent with how the Company evaluates performance. The Company calculates constant currency by converting the current-period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to our current period reported results. Management does not, nor should investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitution for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. A reconciliation of all non-GAAP measures included in this press release, to the most directly comparable GAAP measures, are found in the financial tables above. |
