MACY’S, INC.

Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

Notes:  

(1)

As a result of the seasonal nature of the retail business, the results of operations for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020 (which do not include the Christmas season) are not necessarily indicative of such results for the fiscal year.

 

 

(2)

The 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020 also included non-cash impairment charges totaling $3.2 billion, which consisted of $3.1 billion of a non-cash goodwill impairment charge and $83 million impairment charge on long-lived tangible and right of use assets.

 

 

(3)

Income tax expense of $55 million and $197 million, or 18.7% and 22.3% of pretax income, for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021, respectively, reflect a different effective tax rate as compared to the company’s federal income tax statutory rate of 21% driven primarily by the impact of return-to-provision adjustments that were identified in connection with the filing of the U.S. federal income tax return in the current quarter.

 

 

 

The income tax benefits of $126 million and $1.0 billion, or 58.1% and 19.6% of pretax loss, for the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020, respectively, reflected a different projected benefit rate as compared to the company's federal income tax statutory rate of 21% due to the carryback of net operating losses as permitted under the CARES Act. For the 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020, the benefit of the available carryback of net operating losses was offset by the impact of the non-tax deductible component of the goodwill impairment charge and additional income tax expense associated with the deferred tax remeasurement recognized during the first quarter of 2020.

 

 

(4)

Gross margin is defined as net sales less cost of sales.

 

 

(5)

Restricted cash of $5 million and $73 million have been included with cash and cash equivalents for the 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and October 31, 2020, respectively.

 

 

(6)

Prepaid expenses and other current assets as of October 30, 2021 include an income tax receivable of $590 million associated with the carryback of certain net operating losses permitted under the Coronavirus Aid Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES” Act).

MACY’S, INC. Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The company reports its financial results in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). However, management believes that certain non-GAAP financial measures provide users of the company's financial information with additional useful information in evaluating operating performance. Management believes that providing supplemental changes in comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis, which includes adjusting for the impact of comparable sales of departments licensed to third parties, assists in evaluating the company's ability to generate sales growth, whether through owned businesses or departments licensed to third parties, and in evaluating the impact of changes in the manner in which certain departments are operated. Earnings (loss) before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA) is a non-GAAP financial measure which the company believes provides meaningful information about its operational efficiency by excluding the impact of changes in tax law and structure, debt levels and capital investment. In addition, management believes that excluding certain items from EBITDA, net income (loss) and diluted earnings (loss) per share that are not associated with the company’s core operations and that may vary substantially in frequency and magnitude from period-to-period provides useful supplemental measures that assist in evaluating the company's ability to generate earnings and to more readily compare these metrics between past and future periods.

The company does not provide reconciliations of the forward-looking non-GAAP measures of adjusted EBITDA, diluted earnings per share, and comparable sales on an owned plus licensed basis to the most directly comparable forward-looking GAAP measures because the timing and amount of excluded items are unreasonably difficult to fully and accurately estimate. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the company's financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the company's financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the company's actual and future financial condition and performance. Additionally, the amounts received by the company on account of sales of departments licensed to third parties are limited to commissions received on such sales. The methods used by the company to calculate its non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods used by other companies to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies.

Notes:

(7)

Represents the period-to-period percentage change in net sales from stores in operation during the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 30, 2021 and the 13 and 39 weeks ended October 31, 2020 and November 2, 2019, respectively. Such calculation includes all digital sales and excludes commissions from departments licensed to third parties. Stores impacted by a natural disaster or undergoing significant expansion or shrinkage remain in the comparable sales calculation unless the store, or material portion of the store, is closed for a significant period of time. No stores have been excluded as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Definitions and calculations of comparable sales may differ among companies in the retail industry.

 

(8)

Represents the impact of including the sales of departments licensed to third parties occurring in stores in operation throughout the year presented and the immediately preceding year and all online sales in the calculation of comparable sales. The company licenses third parties to operate certain departments in its stores and online and receives commissions from these third parties based on a percentage of their net sales. In its financial statements prepared in conformity with GAAP, the company includes these commissions (rather than sales of the departments licensed to third parties) in its net sales. The company does not, however, include any amounts in respect of licensed department sales (or any commissions earned on such sales) in its comparable sales in accordance with GAAP (i.e., on an owned basis). The amounts of commissions earned on sales of departments licensed to third parties are not material to its net sales for the periods presented.
