WOLVERINE WORLDWIDE DELIVERS RECORD SECOND QUARTER REVENUE AND STRONG EARNINGS; UPDATES FULL-YEAR OUTLOOK
Second quarter revenue grew 13% and EPS exceeded expectations
ROCKFORD, Mich., August 10, 2022 – Wolverine World Wide, Inc. (NYSE: WWW) today reported financial results for the second quarter ended July 2, 2022.
"Despite a slowdown in June shipments, we are pleased with delivering record organic revenue in the quarter. We are encouraged by 14% growth in our largest brand Merrell, and 45% growth in our international business. We faced unplanned headwinds related to elevated customer inventory, a stronger US dollar, and some lingering supply chain delays, but our operating margin was better-than-expected in the quarter. While we continue to expect sequential growth acceleration in the second half, we now have a revised outlook for the back-half of this year that assumes higher promotional activity and elevated inventory in our wholesale channels," said Brendan Hoffman, Wolverine Worldwide's President and Chief Executive Officer. "During the second quarter, we made very meaningful progress on the important strategy work we started earlier in the year and remain excited about the future growth potential of our brands."

On August 2, 2021, Wolverine Worldwide acquired women’s activewear brand Sweaty Betty, a digitally-native, premium global apparel brand, which will continue to fuel growth and enhance the Company’s eCommerce business. The information in the following table excludes Sweaty Betty.
Non-GAAP Organic (Excluding Sweaty Betty)
| (in millions) | July 2, 2022 | July 3, 2021 | Y/Y Change | ||||||||||||||
| Total Revenue | $666.2 | $631.9 | 5.4% | ||||||||||||||
| Organic Gross Margin | 42.3% | 44.5% | (220 bps) | ||||||||||||||
| Organic Operating Margin | 12.2% | 12.6% | (40 bps) | ||||||||||||||
| Organic Diluted Earnings Per Share | $0.67 | $0.67 | —% | ||||||||||||||
Revenue of $713.6 million represents growth of 12.9% versus the prior year and 25.5% versus 2019. Excluding Sweaty Betty, revenue was $666.2 million, a record for the quarter and up 17.2% compared to 2019. Our international business was especially strong, up 45.3% to $295.2 million including Sweaty Betty and up 26.4% to $256.8 million excluding Sweaty Betty. Direct-to-Consumer revenue including Sweaty Betty was up 21.1% to $166.2 million, and excluding Sweaty Betty was down 8.2% to $125.9 million.
Gross margin of 43.0% was above expectations mostly due to lower-than-expected closeout sales.
Selling, General & Administrative expenses of $139.2 million include a $90.0 million gain related to the sale of the Champion trademarks that occurred on June 30th. Adjusted SG&A expenses of $228.5 million or 32.0% of revenue, was 10 basis points higher than the prior year including Sweaty Betty.
Inventory at the end of the quarter was $639.5 million, up 93% versus the prior year. While factory capacity and delivery performance have improved, logistics lead times and volatility are still impacting our business. Excluding Sweaty Betty, organic inventory increased 80% or $264.9 million compared to last year when inventory levels were abnormally low. One third of this increase, nearly $95 million, relates specifically to much higher in-transit inventory. Organic inventory versus 2019 is up 47%. Approximately 85% of this inventory is expected to be sold through primary wholesale, digital and direct-to-consumer channels later this year or during the 2023 selling seasons. We plan to liquidate the remaining excess inventory pragmatically over the next several months.
Total debt at the end of the quarter was $1,227.4 million. Total liquidity including cash and available borrowings under the Company's revolving line of credit was approximately $700.0 million.
Share repurchases: During the second quarter, approximately 2.4 million shares were repurchased at an average price of $19.47 per share. At the end of the quarter, the Company had nearly $367 million available under its board-approved share repurchase plan.
FULL-YEAR 2022 OUTLOOK
"The Company has performed well in the first half of 2022. Several factors have impacted our outlook for the second half, including certain negative trends that accelerated in June." said Mike Stornant, Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer. "We now expect a stronger US dollar, inflation, excess inventory across channels and changing consumer behavior will have a more meaningful negative impact on our industry and the Company for the remainder of the year. We are adjusting our full-year outlook accordingly."

•Revenue is expected to be in the range of $2.740 billion to $2.790 billion, representing growth of approximately 14.0% to 16.0%. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations are expected to have approximately $72.0 million (or 3.0%) negative impact on full-year reported growth.
•Diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $2.62 to $2.72 and adjusted diluted earnings per share are expected to be between $2.10 to $2.20, representing growth of 0.5% to 5.3%. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations are expected to have a $0.11 negative impact on full-year EPS.
•Gross margin is expected to be approximately 42.5%, assuming an increased promotional and markdown cadence and a higher mix of lower-margin international third-party sales in the back half of the year.
•Operating margin is expected to be approximately 11.5% and adjusted operating margin is expected to be approximately 9.5%, reflecting increased promotional costs and higher inventory handling costs.
•The effective tax rate is expected to be approximately 21.5%.
•Diluted weighted average shares are expected to be approximately 80.0 million.
This outlook assumes no meaningful deterioration of current market conditions related to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, ongoing inflationary pressures, supply chain disruptions, changes in consumer behavior and confidence and geopolitical tensions.
NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
Measures referred to in this release as “adjusted” financial results are non-GAAP measures that exclude the gain on the sale of the Champion trademarks, environmental and other related costs net of recoveries, costs associated with Sweaty Betty® integration and costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic including air freight costs. Measures referred to in this release as “adjusted organic” financial results are non-GAAP measures that exclude the results of Sweaty Betty®. The Company also presents constant currency information, which is a non-GAAP measure that excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company calculates constant currency basis by converting the current-period local currency financial results using the prior period exchange rates and comparing these adjusted amounts to the Company's current period reported results. The Company believes providing each of these non-GAAP measures provides valuable supplemental information regarding its results of operations, consistent with how the Company evaluates performance.
The Company has provided a reconciliation of each of the above non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors because they increase the comparability of current period results to prior period results by adjusting for certain items that may not be indicative of core operating results and enable better identification of 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 adjusted organic financial results are used by management to, and allow investors to, evaluate the aggregate operating performance of the Company’s brands other than Sweaty Betty®. Management does not, nor should investors, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP.
EARNINGS CALL INFORMATION
The Company will host a conference call today at 8:30 a.m. EST to discuss these results and current business trends. The conference call will be broadcast live and accessible under the “Investor Relations” tab at www.wolverineworldwide.com. A replay of the conference call will be available on the Company’s website for a period of approximately 30 days.

*To supplement the consolidated condensed financial statements presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("GAAP"), the Company describes what certain financial measures would have been if, gain on the sale of Champion trademarks, environmental and other related costs net of recoveries, Sweaty Betty® integration costs and air freight costs related to the COVID-19 pandemic were excluded. The Company also describes what certain financial measures would have been if the previously described financial measures also excluded the results of Sweaty Betty®. The Company believes these non-GAAP measures provide useful information to both management and investors by increasing 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 the Company's 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 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 the Company's 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.
