– Delivered 10% Net Sales Growth –
– Gained 100 Basis Points of Market Share in
Nielsen U.S. Color Cosmetics –
– Raises Fiscal 2021 Guidance –
e.l.f. Beauty (NYSE: ELF) today announced results for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 2020.
“Our core value proposition and product innovation continue to
resonate with consumers,” said Tarang Amin, e.l.f. Beauty's
Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Of the top five color
cosmetics brands in the U.S., e.l.f. grew the most share in the
quarter. We also advanced our transformation to a multi-brand
portfolio with the launch of our Keys Soulcare skincare
collection.”
“I’m proud of the e.l.f. Beauty team for delivering eight
consecutive quarters of net sales growth. Our brand building
efforts and digital focus fueled our growth before and during the
pandemic, and we believe position us well for the future,” added
Amin.
Three Months Ended December 31, 2020 Results
Net sales increased 10%, or $7.8 million, to $88.6 million, as
compared to $80.8 million in the three months ended December 31,
2019. The increase was driven by strength in e-commerce,
international, and our national retailers.
Gross margin decreased 50 basis points to 64%, as compared to
65% in the three months ended December 31, 2019. Gross margin
benefited from margin accretive product mix and cost savings, a mix
shift to elfcosmetics.com, and to a lesser degree, a favorable
foreign exchange rate impact. Offsetting these benefits were
certain costs related to retailer activity and space expansion.
Selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were
$50.8 million, or 57% of net sales, as compared to $39.6 million,
or 49% of net sales in the three months ended December 31, 2019.
Adjusted SG&A (SG&A excluding the items identified in the
reconciliation table below) was $43.3 million, or 49% of net sales,
as compared to $35.8 million, or 44% of net sales in the three
months ended December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due to
investments in marketing and digital, headcount costs from building
out the Company's marketing, digital and innovation capabilities,
and increased operational costs driven by the increase in
e-commerce sales.
The provision for income taxes was $0.5 million, as compared to
a provision of $3.0 million in the three months ended December 31,
2019. The change was primarily driven by a decrease in income
before taxes of $6.2 million and an increase in discrete tax
benefit of $1.1 million, primarily related to stock-based
compensation.
Net income was $4.3 million, or $0.08 per diluted share, as
compared to net income of $8.0 million, or $0.16 per diluted share
in the three months ended December 31, 2019.
Adjusted net income (net income excluding the items identified
in the reconciliation table below) was $11.6 million, or $0.22 per
diluted share, as compared to adjusted net income of $12.2 million,
or $0.24 per diluted share in the three months ended December 31,
2019.
Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA excluding the items identified in the
reconciliation table below) decreased 14% to $18.3 million from
$21.4 million in the three months ended December 31, 2019.
Nine Months Ended December 31, 2020 Results
Net sales increased 8%, or $17.3 million, to $225.4 million, as
compared to $208.1 million in the nine months ended December 31,
2019. The increase was driven by strength in e-commerce,
international, and our national retailers.
Gross margin increased 150 basis points to 65%, as compared to
64% in the nine months ended December 31, 2019. This increase was
primarily driven by a combination of margin accretive product mix
and cost savings, price increases implemented in Summer 2019, a
favorable foreign exchange impact, and a shift in sales mix to
elfcosmetics.com, partially offset by the impact of tariffs on
goods imported from China and certain costs related to retailer
reset activity and space expansion.
SG&A was $136.3 million, or 60% of net sales, as compared to
$110.1 million, or 53% of net sales in the nine months ended
December 31, 2019. Adjusted SG&A was $113.7 million, or 50% of
net sales, as compared to $97.8 million, or 47% of net sales in the
nine months ended December 31, 2019. The increase was primarily due
to increased headcount costs from building out the Company's
marketing, digital and innovation capabilities, investments in
marketing and digital, proxy contest costs, and increased
operational costs driven by the increase in e-commerce sales.
The provision for income taxes was $0.2 million, as compared to
a provision of $6.4 million in the nine months ended December 31,
2019. The change was primarily driven by a decrease in income
before taxes of $18.1 million and an increase in discrete tax
benefit of $1.8 million, primarily related to stock-based
compensation.
Net income was $6.3 million, or $0.12 per diluted share, as
compared to net income of $18.2 million, or $0.36 per diluted
share, in the nine months ended December 31, 2019.
Adjusted net income was $28.3 million, or $0.55 per diluted
share, as compared to adjusted net income of $26.8 million, or
$0.53 per diluted share, in the nine months ended December 31,
2019.
Adjusted EBITDA decreased 5% to $48.2 million from $50.9 million
in the nine months ended December 31, 2019.
Balance Sheet
As of December 31, 2020, the Company had $35.4 million in cash

Note Regarding non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes references to non-GAAP measures,
including, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted
diluted EPS. The Company presents these non-GAAP measures because
its management uses them as supplemental measures in assessing its
operating performance, and believes they are helpful to investors,
securities analysts and other interested parties in evaluating the
Company’s performance. The non-GAAP measures included in this press
release are not measurements of financial performance under GAAP
and they should not be considered as alternatives to measures of
performance derived in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these
non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that the
Company’s future results will be unaffected by unusual or
non-recurring items. These non-GAAP measures have limitations as
analytical tools, and you should not consider such measures either
in isolation or as substitutes for analyzing the Company’s results
as reported under GAAP. The Company’s definitions and calculations
of these non-GAAP measures are not necessarily comparable to other
similarly titled measures used by other companies due to different
methods of calculation.
Adjusted EBITDA excludes costs or gains related to restructuring
of operations, stock-based compensation and other non-cash and
non-recurring costs. Such other non-cash or non-recurring costs
include proxy contest expenses, pre-launch costs to develop the
Company’s first new brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related costs
for W3LL PEOPLE, and costs related to the automation of certain
warehouse and distribution activities. Adjusted SG&A excludes
costs related to stock-based compensation and other non-cash and
non-recurring costs. Such other non-cash or non-recurring costs
include proxy contest expenses, pre-launch costs to develop the
Company’s first new brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related costs
for W3LL PEOPLE, and costs related to the automation of certain
warehouse and distribution activities. Adjusted net income excludes
costs or gains related to restructuring of operations, stock-based
compensation, other non-cash and non-recurring costs, amortization
of acquired intangible assets and the tax impact of the foregoing
adjustments. Such other non-cash or non-recurring costs include
proxy contest expenses, pre-launch costs to develop the Company’s
first new brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related costs for W3LL
PEOPLE, and costs related to the automation of certain warehouse
and distribution activities.
With respect to the Company’s expectations under “Fiscal 2021
Outlook” above, the Company is not able to provide a quantitative
reconciliation of the adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and
adjusted diluted EPS guidance non-GAAP measures to the
corresponding net income and diluted EPS GAAP measures without
unreasonable efforts. The Company cannot provide meaningful
estimates of the non-recurring charges and credits excluded from
these non-GAAP measures due to the forward-looking nature of these
estimates and their inherent variability and uncertainty. For the
same reasons, the Company is unable to address the probable
significance of the unavailable information.
Forward-looking Statements
This press release contains forward-looking statements within
the meaning of the federal securities laws, including those
statements relating to the Company's outlook for fiscal 2021 under
“Fiscal 2021 Outlook” above and the Company’s belief that the
Company’s brand building efforts and digital focus position the
Company well for the future. Although the Company believes that the
expectations reflected in the forward-looking statements are
reasonable, actual results and the timing of selected events may
differ materially from those expectations. Factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in the forward
looking statements include, among other things, the risks and
uncertainties that are described in the Company's most recent
Annual Report on Form 10-K, as updated from time to time in the
Company's SEC filings, as well as the Company’s ability to
effectively compete with other beauty companies; the Company’s
ability to successfully introduce new products; the Company’s
ability to attract new retail customers and/or expand business with
its existing retail customers; the Company’s ability to optimize
shelf space at its key retail customers; the loss of any of the
Company’s key retail customers or if the general business
performance of its key retail customers declines; the Company’s
ability to effectively manage its SG&A and other expenses; and
the uncertainty regarding the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Potential investors are urged to consider these factors carefully
in evaluating the forward-looking statements.
These forward-looking statements speak only as of the date
hereof. Except as required by law, the Company assumes no
obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements for
any reason, even if new information becomes available in the
future.
