– Delivered 11% Net Sales Growth –
– Raises Fiscal 2022 Guidance –
e.l.f. Beauty (NYSE: ELF) today announced results for the three
and nine months ended December 31, 2021.
“I am proud of the e.l.f. Beauty team for achieving our twelfth
consecutive quarter of net sales growth,” said Tarang Amin, e.l.f.
Beauty's Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “e.l.f. remains the
only Top 5 color cosmetics brand with sales growth and market share
above pre-pandemic levels. Our innovation, digitally led strategy,
core value proposition and ability to adapt at e.l.f. speed
continue to fuel our performance. Given our momentum, we are
raising our Fiscal 2022 guidance.”
Three Months Ended December 31, 2021 Results
For the three months ended December 31, 2021, compared to
the three months ended December 31, 2020:
- Net sales increased 11% to $98.1 million, primarily
driven by strength in our national and international
retailers.
- Gross margin increased approximately 110 basis points to
66%, primarily driven by product mix, pricing and cost savings,
partially offset by unfavorable foreign exchange rates and
increased transportation costs.
- Selling, general and administrative expenses
("SG&A") increased $4.6 million to $55.4 million or 56% of
net sales. Adjusted SG&A (SG&A excluding the items
identified in the reconciliation table below) increased $5.3
million to $48.6 million, or 50% of net sales. The increase was
primarily due to an increase in marketing and digital spend,
software subscription costs and professional fees.
- The provision for income taxes was $2.0 million.
- Net income was $6.2 million on a GAAP basis. Adjusted
net income (net income excluding the items identified in the
reconciliation table below) was $12.7 million.
- Diluted earnings per share were $0.12 on a GAAP basis.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share (diluted earnings per
share calculated with adjusted net income excluding the items
identified in the reconciliation table below) were $0.24.
- Adjusted EBITDA (EBITDA excluding the items identified
in the reconciliation table below) was $21.7 million, or 22% of net
sales, up 18% year over year.
Nine Months Ended December 31, 2021 Results
For the nine months ended December 31, 2021, compared to
the nine months ended December 31, 2020:
- Net sales increased 27% to $287.0 million, primarily
driven by strength in our national and international
retailers.
- Gross margin decreased approximately 130 basis points to
64%, primarily driven by unfavorable foreign exchange rates and
elevated transportation costs, partially offset by price increases,
cost savings and changes in product mix.
- SG&A increased $20.2 million to $156.6 million or
55% of net sales. Adjusted SG&A increased $25.7 million
to $139.4 million, or 49% of net sales. The increase was primarily
due to investments in marketing and digital, an increase in
software subscription costs and higher operations costs.
- The provision for income taxes was $4.0 million.
- Net income was $20.2 million on a GAAP basis.
Adjusted net income was $38.3 million.

Note Regarding non-GAAP Financial Measures
This press release includes references to non-GAAP measures,
including, adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and adjusted
diluted earnings per share. 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, loss on extinguishment of
debt and other non-cash and non-recurring costs. Such other
non-cash or non-recurring costs include proxy contest expenses and
other legal settlements, pre-launch costs to develop the Company’s
brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related costs for Well People,
third-party costs related to M&A due diligence, costs related
to the automation of certain warehouse and distribution activities,
and amortization of internal-use software costs related to cloud
applications. 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 and other legal settlements, pre-launch costs to
develop the Company’s brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related
costs for Well People, third-party costs related to M&A due
diligence, and costs related to the automation of certain warehouse
and distribution activities. Adjusted effective tax rate is the tax
rate when excluding the pre-tax impact of costs or gains related to
restructuring of operations, stock-based compensation, other
non-cash and non-recurring costs, amortization of acquired
intangible assets, as well as the related tax impact for these
items, calculated utilizing the statutory rate for where the impact
was incurred. Adjusted net income excludes costs or gains related
to restructuring of operations, stock-based compensation, loss on
extinguishment of debt, 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 brand, Keys Soulcare, acquisition-related costs for
Well People, and costs related to the automation of certain
warehouse and distribution activities.
With respect to the Company’s expectations under “Fiscal 2022
Outlook” above, the Company is not able to provide a quantitative
reconciliation of the adjusted EBITDA, adjusted net income and
adjusted diluted earnings per share guidance non-GAAP measures to
the corresponding net income and diluted earnings per share 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 2022 under
“Fiscal 2022 Outlook” above and those statements that the Company’s
innovation, digitally led strategy, core value proposition and
ability to adapt at e.l.f. speed continue to fuel its performance.
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.
