Forward-Looking Statements

 

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”) contains “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 as contained in Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and Section 21E of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, concerning expectations, beliefs plans, objectives, goals, strategies, future events or performance and underlying assumptions and other statements that are not statements of historical fact, including statements regarding: our expectations with respect to our revenue, expenses, profitability, and other operating results; our growth plans; our ability to compete effectively in the markets in which we participate; the execution on our transformation initiatives; and the impact of certain macroeconomic factors, including the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, inflationary pressures, global supply chain constraints and global economic and geopolitical developments, on our business. Forward-looking and other statements in this Form 10-Q may also address our progress, plans, and goals with respect to sustainability initiatives, and the inclusion of such statements is not an indication that these contents are necessarily material to investors or required to be disclosed in our filings with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”). Such plans and goals may change, and statements regarding such plans and goals are not guarantees or promises that they will be met. In addition, historical, current, and forward-looking sustainability-related statements may be based on standards for measuring progress that are still developing, internal controls and processes that continue to evolve, and assumptions that are subject to change in the future.

Such forward-looking statements can generally be identified by the use of forward-looking terms such as “believes,” “expects,” “may,” “intends,” “will,” “shall,” “should,” “anticipates,” “opportunity,” “illustrative”, or the negative thereof or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. Although we believe that the expectations and assumptions reflected in these statements are reasonable, there can be no assurance that these expectations will prove to be correct or that any forward-looking results will occur or be realized. Nothing contained in this Form 10-Q is, or should be relied upon as, a promise or representation or warranty as to any future matter, including any matter in respect of our operations or business or financial condition. All forward-looking statements are based on expectations and assumptions about future events that may or may not be correct or necessarily take place and that are by their nature subject to significant uncertainties and contingencies, many of which are outside of our control.

Forward-looking statements are subject to many risks, uncertainties and other factors that could cause actual results or events to differ materially from the potential results or events discussed in such forward-looking statements,  including, without limitation, those identified in this Form 10-Q as well as the following: (i) increased competition (including from multi-channel retailers and e-Commerce providers); (ii) reduced consumer demand for our products and/or services; (iii) our reliance on key vendors; (iv) our ability to attract and retain qualified employees; (v) risks arising from statutory, regulatory and/or legal developments; (vi) macroeconomic pressures in the markets in which we operate, including inflation; (vii) failure to effectively manage our costs; (viii) our reliance on our information technology systems; (ix) our ability to prevent or effectively respond to a privacy or security breach; (x) our ability to effectively manage or integrate strategic ventures, alliances or acquisitions and realize the anticipated benefits of such transactions; (xi) economic or regulatory developments that might affect our ability to provide attractive promotional financing; (xii) business interruptions and other supply chain issues; (xiii) catastrophic events, political tensions, conflicts and wars (such as the ongoing conflict in Ukraine), health crises, and pandemics, including the potential effects that the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic and/or corresponding macroeconomic uncertainty could have on our financial position, results of operations and cash flows; (xiv) our ability to maintain positive brand perception and recognition; (xv) product safety and quality concerns; (xvi) changes to labor or employment laws or regulations; (xvii) our ability to effectively manage our real estate portfolio; (xviii) constraints in the capital markets or our vendor credit terms; (xix) changes in our credit ratings; and (xx) the other risks, uncertainties and other factors identified under “Risk Factors” and elsewhere in our other filings with the SEC. The occurrence of any such factors could significantly alter the results set forth in these statements.

We caution that the foregoing list of risks, uncertainties and other factors is not complete, and forward-looking statements speak only as of the date they are made. We undertake no duty to update publicly any such forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as may be required by applicable law, regulation or other competent legal authority.

In addition, statements such as “we believe” and similar statements reflect our beliefs and opinions on the relevant subject. These statements are based on information available to us as of the date of this Form 10-Q. While we believe that information provides a reasonable basis for these statements, that information may be limited or incomplete. Our statements should not be read to indicate that we have conducted an exhaustive inquiry into, or

2


 

review of, all relevant information. These statements are inherently uncertain, and investors are cautioned not to unduly rely on these statements.

PETCO HEALTH AND WELLNESS COMPANY, INC.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(Unaudited)

1. Summary of Significant Accounting Policies

Basis of Presentation

Petco Health and Wellness Company, Inc. (together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Company”) is a category-defining health and wellness company focused on improving the lives of pets, pet parents, and its own partners. The Company manages its business as one reportable operating segment.

In the opinion of management, the accompanying consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments necessary for a fair presentation as prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”). All adjustments were comprised of normal recurring adjustments, except as noted in these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements.

There have been no significant changes from the significant accounting policies disclosed in Note 1 of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with GAAP for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. Interim financial results are not necessarily indicative of results anticipated for the full year. The accompanying consolidated financial statements and these Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022, from which the prior year balance sheet information herein was derived.

Veterinary Joint Venture

The Company previously held a 50% investment in a joint venture with a domestic partner to build and operate veterinary clinics in Petco locations. The joint venture was a variable interest entity for which the Company was the primary beneficiary, and accordingly, the joint venture’s results of operations and statements of financial position are included in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In May 2022, the Company completed the purchase of the remaining 50% of the issued and outstanding membership interests of the joint venture, which is now a wholly owned subsidiary of the Company, for cash consideration of $35.0 million. Direct transaction costs related to this purchase were not material.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of these consolidated financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. These estimates are based on information that is currently available and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results could vary from those estimates under different assumptions or conditions.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2020-04 – Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, which provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying GAAP to contract modifications, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by the anticipated transition from LIBOR. As a result of the reference rate reform initiative, certain widely used reference rates such as LIBOR are expected to be discontinued. The guidance is designed to simplify how entities account for contracts, such as receivables, debt, leases, derivative instruments and hedging, that are modified to replace LIBOR or other benchmark interest rates with new rates. The guidance is effective upon issuance and may be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this accounting standard, but does not expect it to have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

3. Senior Secured Credit Facilities

The Company previously had a senior secured term loan facility (the “Amended Term Loan Facility”), which was fully repaid on March 4, 2021, and a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility (the “Amended Revolving Credit Facility”), which was terminated on March 4, 2021. On March 4, 2021, the Company entered into a $1,700.0 million secured term loan facility maturing on March 4, 2028 (the “First Lien Term Loan”) and a secured asset-based revolving credit facility with availability of up to $500.0 million, subject to a borrowing base, maturing on March 4, 2026 (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”).

As of July 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with its covenants under the First Lien Term Loan and the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

Term Loan Facilities

On March 4, 2021, the Company entered into the First Lien Term Loan and repaid all outstanding principal and interest on the Amended Term Loan Facility. Interest on the First Lien Term Loan is based on, at the Company’s option, either a base rate or Adjusted LIBOR, subject to a 0.75% floor, payable upon maturity of the

10


 

LIBOR contract, in either case plus the applicable rate. The base rate is the greater of the bank prime rate, federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or Adjusted LIBOR plus 1.0%. The applicable rate is 2.25% per annum for a base rate loan or 3.25% per annum for an Adjusted LIBOR loan. Principal and interest payments commenced on June 30, 2021. Principal payments are $4.25 million quarterly.

In connection with the March 4, 2021 transaction described above, the Company recognized a loss on debt extinguishment and modification of $19.6 million on the term loan facilities, which consisted of a $6.5 million write-off of unamortized debt discount and issuance costs on the Amended Term Loan Facility and $13.1 million of third-party expenses.

Fees relating to the Company’s entry into the First Lien Term Loan consisted of arranger fees and other third-party expenses. Of those fees, $3.2 million was capitalized as debt issuance costs, along with $4.3 million of original issue discount. The remaining portion of original issue discount and debt issuance costs of the Amended Term Loan Facility previously capitalized is being amortized over the contractual term of the First Lien Term Loan to interest expense using the effective interest rate in effect on the date of issuance, as these amounts represent the portion that was not substantially modified.

As of July 30, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the First Lien Term Loan was $1,678.8 million ($1,655.5 million, net of the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs). As of January 29, 2022, the outstanding principal balance of the First Lien Term Loan was $1,687.3 million ($1,662.1 million, net of the unamortized discount and debt issuance costs). The weighted average interest rate on the borrowings outstanding was 5.6% and 4.1% as of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Debt issuance costs are being amortized over the contractual term to interest expense using the effective interest rate in effect at issuance. As of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, the estimated fair value of the First Lien Term Loan was approximately $1,624.2 million and $1,687.3 million, respectively, based upon Level 2 fair value hierarchy inputs.

Revolving Credit Facilities

On March 4, 2021, the Company entered into the ABL Revolving Credit Facility and terminated the Amended Revolving Credit Facility. The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has availability up to $500.0 million, subject to a borrowing base.

Fees relating to the Company’s entry into the ABL Revolving Credit Facility consisted of arranger fees and other third-party expenses. Of those fees, $4.1 million was capitalized as debt issuance costs. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $1.2 million were written off and recognized as a loss on debt extinguishment and modification in connection with this transaction. The remaining portion of debt issuance costs of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility previously capitalized is being amortized over the contractual term of the ABL Revolving Credit Facility as these amounts represent the portion that was not substantially modified.

As of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, no amounts were outstanding under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. At July 30, 2022, $443.9 million was available under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, which is net of $56.1 million of outstanding letters of credit issued in the normal course of business and no borrowing base reduction for a shortfall in qualifying assets. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.2 million relating to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility were outstanding and were being amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the agreement as of July 30, 2022. Unamortized debt issuance costs of $4.7 million relating to the ABL Revolving Credit Facility were outstanding and were being amortized using the straight-line method over the remaining term of the agreement as of January 29, 2022.

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility has availability up to $500.0 million and a $150.0 million letter of credit sub-facility. The availability is limited to a borrowing base, which allows borrowings of up to 90% of eligible accounts receivable plus 90% of the net orderly liquidation value of eligible inventory plus up to $50.0 million of qualified cash of the Company to which the Company and guarantors have no access, less reserves as determined by the administrative agent. Letters of credit reduce the amount available to borrow under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility by their face value.

Interest on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility is based on, at the Company’s option, either the base rate or Adjusted LIBOR subject to a floor of 0%, in either case, plus an applicable margin. The applicable margin is currently equal to 25 basis points in the case of base rate loans and 125 basis points in the case of Adjusted LIBOR loans.

11


 

The applicable margin is adjusted quarterly based on the average historical excess availability as a percentage of the Line Cap, which represents the lesser of the aggregate ABL Revolving Credit Facility and the borrowing base, as follows:

 

Average Historical Excess Availability

 

Applicable

Margin for

Adjusted

The ABL Revolving Credit Facility is subject to an unused commitment fee. If the actual daily utilized portion exceeds 50%, the unused commitment fee is 0.25%. Otherwise, the unused commitment fee is 0.375% and is not dependent upon excess availability.

The fair value of money market mutual funds is based on quoted market prices, such as quoted net asset values published by the fund as supported in an active market. Money market mutual funds included in the Company’s cash and cash equivalents were $59.5 million and $158.0 million as of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, respectively. Also included in the Company’s money market mutual funds balances were $0.9 million and $9.3 million as of July 30, 2022 and January 29, 2022, respectively, which relate to the Company’s restricted cash, and are included in other current assets in the consolidated balance sheets.

The Company maintains a deferred compensation plan for key executives and other members of management, which is funded by investments in officers’ life insurance. The fair value of this obligation is based on participants’ elected investments, which reflect the closing market prices of similar assets.

The Company previously held an equity investment, in the form of multiple series of preferred stock, in A Place for Rover, Inc., an online marketplace for pet care, which was historically accounted for as an equity security without a readily determinable fair value. In July 2021, A Place for Rover, Inc. completed a business combination with Nebula Caravel Acquisition Corp., a publicly-traded special purpose acquisition company. The combined entity was renamed to Rover Group, Inc. (“Rover”), and the Company’s equity investment was converted into shares of Rover Class A common stock. In September 2021, the Company received additional shares of Rover Class A

common stock in accordance with certain earnout provisions from the July 2021 business combination. The Company now remeasures the fair value of its investment on a quarterly basis, and the resulting gains or losses are included in other non-operating income in the consolidated statements of operations. On November 23, 2021, the Company completed the sale of approximately 11% of its Rover Class A common stock for net proceeds of $6.1 million in cash as part of its participation in an underwritten secondary offering by certain Rover shareholders.

In February 2022, the Company amended a collaboration agreement with a vendor, and as part of the amendment the Company was granted a right to receive equity and warrants for common shares of the vendor that is subject to certain performance conditions and other contingencies. The Company evaluated the agreement under FASB Accounting Standards Codification 705-20, Consideration Received from a Vendor, and no material consideration was recognized during the twenty-six week period ended July 30, 2022.

Assets Measured on a Non-Recurring Basis

The Company’s non-financial assets, which primarily consist of goodwill, other intangible assets, fixed assets and equity and other investments, are reported at carrying value, or at fair value as of the date of the Company’s acquisition of Petco Holdings, Inc. LLC on January 26, 2016, and are not required to be measured at fair value on a recurring basis. However, on a periodic basis (at least annually for goodwill and indefinite-lived intangibles or whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying value of an asset may not be recoverable), non-financial assets are assessed for impairment. If impaired, the carrying values of the assets are written down to fair value using Level 3 inputs.

There were no triggering events identified and no indication of impairment of the Company’s goodwill, indefinite-lived trade name, other intangible assets or equity and other investments during the thirteen or twenty-six week periods ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021. During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended July 30, 2022, the Company recorded fixed asset and right-of-use asset impairment charges of $0.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. During the thirteen and twenty-six week periods ended July 31, 2021, the Company recorded fixed asset and right-of-use asset impairment charges of $1.4 million and $2.5 million, respectively.

5. Stockholders’ Equity

 

Equity-Based Compensation

Equity-based compensation awards under the Company’s current incentive plan (the “2021 Equity Incentive Plan”) include restricted stock units (“RSUs,” which include performance-based stock units), restricted stock awards (“RSAs”), non-qualified stock options, and other equity compensation awards. The Company also has an employee stock purchase plan (“ESPP”).

 

The Company’s controlling parent, Scooby LP, also maintains an incentive plan (the “2016 Incentive Plan”) under which it has awarded partnership unit awards to certain current and former employees, consultants, and non-employee directors of the Company that are restricted profit interests in Scooby LP subject to a distribution threshold (“Series C Units”).

RSA activity has not been material and relates to an RSA of Class A common stock granted to an executive in March 2021. For this grant, 50% of the RSA becomes vested on each of the first two anniversaries of the grant date. Unvested RSAs are not considered participating securities for earnings per share purposes, as any related dividends are forfeitable.

The ESPP allows eligible employees to contribute up to 15% of their base earnings towards purchases of Class A common stock, subject to an annual maximum. The purchase price will be 85% of the lower of (i) the fair market value of the stock on the associated lookback date and (ii) the fair market value of the stock on the last day of the related purchase period.

No additional Series C Units have been or will be awarded following the Company’s initial public offering. As of July 30, 2022, unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested portion of Scooby LP’s Series C Units was $13.2 million, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years. In addition to acceleration upon a change in control, a portion of grantees’ Series C Units may vest upon certain levels of direct or indirect sales by Scooby LP of the Company’s Class A common stock, and all unvested Series C Units will fully accelerate in the event Scooby LP sells 90% of its direct or indirect holdings of the Company’s Class A common stock.

Earnings (Loss) Per Share

Potentially dilutive securities include potential Class A common shares related to outstanding stock options, unvested RSUs and RSAs, and the ESPP, calculated using the treasury stock method. The calculation of diluted shares outstanding excludes securities where the combination of the exercise or purchase price (in the case of options and the ESPP) and the associated unrecognized compensation expense is greater than the average market price of Class A common shares because the inclusion of these securities would be anti-dilutive.

There were approximately 5.3 million and 3.4 million potential shares that were anti-dilutive and excluded from the computation of diluted shares outstanding during the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively.

6. Commitments and Contingencies

 

The Company is involved in legal proceedings and is subject to other claims and litigation, in each case, arising in the ordinary course of its business. The Company has made accruals with respect to certain of these matters, where appropriate, which are reflected in the Company’s consolidated financial statements but are not, individually or in the aggregate, considered material. For other matters, the Company has not made accruals because management has not yet determined that a loss is probable or because the amount of loss cannot be reasonably estimated. While the ultimate outcome of the matters cannot be determined, the Company currently does not expect that these matters will have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements. The outcome of any litigation is inherently uncertain, however, and if decided adversely to the Company, or if the Company determines that settlement of particular litigation is appropriate, the Company may be subject to liability that could have a material adverse effect on its consolidated financial statements.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying notes included elsewhere in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Form 10-Q”), as well as the corresponding Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022 (the “2021 Form 10-K”). The discussion and analysis below contains certain forward-looking statements about our business and operations that are subject to the risks, uncertainties, and other factors referred to in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors of this Form 10-Q.  These risks, uncertainties, and other factors could cause our actual results to differ materially from those expressed in, or implied by, the forward-looking statements. The risks described in this Form 10-Q and in other documents we file from time to time with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), including the section entitled “Forward-Looking Statements” in this Form 10-Q, should be carefully reviewed. All amounts herein are unaudited.

Overview

Founded in 1965, Petco Health and Wellness Company, Inc. (“Petco”, the “Company”, “we”, “our” and “us”) is a category-defining health and wellness company focused on improving the lives of pets, pet parents, and our own partners. We have consistently set new standards in pet care while delivering comprehensive pet wellness products, services and solutions, and creating communities that deepen the pet-pet parent bond. In recent years, we have transformed our business from a successful yet traditional retailer to a disruptive, fully integrated, omnichannel provider of holistic pet health and wellness offerings, including premium products, services, and veterinary care. Through our integrated ecosystem, we provide our over 24 million total active customers with a comprehensive offering of differentiated products and services to fulfill their pets’ health and wellness needs through our more than 1,500 pet care centers in the U.S., Mexico, and Puerto Rico, including a growing network of more than 200 in-store veterinary hospitals, our digital channel, and our flexible fulfillment options.

Our multicategory, go-to-market strategy integrates our strong digital assets with our nationwide physical footprint to meet the needs of pet parents who are looking for a single source for all their pet’s needs. Our e-commerce site and personalized mobile app serve as hubs for pet parents to manage their pets’ health, wellness, and merchandise needs, while enabling them to shop wherever, whenever, and however they want. By leveraging our extensive physical network of pet care centers, we are able to offer our comprehensive product and service offering in a localized manner with a meaningful last-mile advantage over much of our competition. The full value of our health and wellness ecosystem is realized for customers through our Vital Care membership program. From the nutrition and supplies pets need each day, to the services that keep them at optimal health, Vital Care makes it easier and more affordable for pet parents to care for their pet’s whole health all in one place. Vital Care memberships are at the top of our integrated loyalty programs, followed by our perks program that provides rewards for frequent purchasing and our Pals Rewards loyalty program.

We strive to be a truly unique company, one that is saving and improving millions of pet lives and tangibly improving the lives of pet parents and the partners who work for us, while at the same time executing our differentiated strategy with excellence. In tandem with Petco Love (formerly the Petco Foundation), an independent nonprofit organization, we work with and support thousands of local animal welfare groups across the country and, through in-store adoption events, we have helped find homes for more than 6.6 million animals.

Macroeconomic factors, including the prolonged COVID-19 pandemic, inflationary pressures, supply chain constraints and global economic and geopolitical developments, have varying impacts on our results of operations that are difficult to isolate and quantify. We cannot predict the duration or ultimate severity of these macroeconomic factors or the ultimate impact on the broader economy or our operations and liquidity. Please refer to the risk factors referred to in Part II, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of this Form 10-Q.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing our performance, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures, including the following:

 

Comparable Sales

Comparable sales is an important measure throughout the retail industry and includes both retail and digital sales of products and services. A new location or digital site is included in comparable sales beginning on the first

16


 

day of the fiscal month following 12 full fiscal months of operation and is subsequently compared to like time periods from the previous year. Relocated pet care centers become comparable pet care centers on the first day of operation if the original pet care center was open longer than 12 full fiscal months. If, during the period presented, a pet care center was closed, sales from that pet care center are included up to the first day of the month of closing. There may be variations in the way in which some of our competitors and other retailers calculate comparable sales. As a result, data in this filing regarding our comparable sales may not be comparable to similar data made available by other retailers.

Comparable sales allow us to evaluate how our overall ecosystem is performing by measuring the change in period-over-period net sales from locations and digital sites that have been open for the applicable period. We intend to improve comparable sales by continuing initiatives aimed to increase customer retention, frequency of visits, and basket size. General macroeconomic and retail business trends are also a key driver of changes in comparable sales.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

Management and our board of directors review, in addition to GAAP (as defined herein) measures, certain non-GAAP financial measures, including Adjusted EBITDA, and Free Cash Flow, to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans, and make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital.  Further explanations of these non-GAAP measures, along with reconciliations to their most comparable GAAP measures, are presented below under “Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures.”  

Executive Summary

Our business transformation initiatives, accelerated by an increase in pet ownership and a shift in customer preferences towards products and services focused on health and wellness, have driven strong results in our business. Comparing the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 with the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021 (unless otherwise noted), our results included the following:

 

an increase in net sales from $1.43 billion to $1.48 billion, representing period-over-period growth of 3.2%;

 

comparable sales growth of 3.8%;

 

a decrease in operating income from $73.5 million to $50.0 million, representing a period-over-period decrease of 31.9%;

 

a decrease in net income attributable to Class A and B-1 common stockholders from $75.1 million to $13.5 million, representing a period-over-period decrease of 82.1%, which was inclusive of a $55.4 million lower remeasurement of the fair value of an investment in securities and $10.9 million of integration-related costs related to the purchase of the remaining stake in our veterinary joint venture; and

 

a decrease in Adjusted EBITDA from $155.1 million to $142.0 million, representing a period-over-period decrease of 8.5%.

Net sales increased $46.3 million, or 3.2%, to $1.48 billion in the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to net sales of $1.43 billion in the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021, driven by a 3.8% increase in our comparable sales. Net sales increased $107.3 million, or 3.8%, to $2.96 billion in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to net sales of $2.85 billion in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, driven by a 4.4% increase in our comparable sales. Our sales growth period-over-period was driven by our strong execution and differentiated model across digital and in our pet care centers and continued growth in our active customer base. Our total sales mix remains strong, led by continued momentum in consumables and services, whose customers shop more frequently and have among our highest long-term value. This growth is slightly offset by a decrease in supplies and companion animals driven by softening in discretionary spend associated with the current inflationary macroeconomic environment and the lapping of a stimulus-driven prior year. We have made certain pricing actions to offset cost increases during the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022.

The increase in consumables sales between the periods was driven in part by the increase in new pets, our strategic investments in customer acquisition and retention, continued expansion of our product assortment and a shift to more premium consumables, as well as fresh and frozen food. The decrease in supplies and companion animals is due in part to a strong stimulus driven twenty-six week period ended July 31, 2021 and a decrease in spending on certain non-essential items. The increase in services and other was due in part to the increase in new pets, growth in our membership offerings like Vital Care, and growth in our veterinary hospital business in which we now operate over 200 veterinary hospitals – an increase of over 50 since July 31, 2021.

For the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, pet care center merchandise delivered growth of 0.5% and 1.1%, respectively, led by strong growth in consumables. E-commerce and digital sales increased 9.8% and 10.2% during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, respectively, driven by strength in our online initiatives such as repeat delivery, buy online pick up in-store (“BOPUS”), ship from store, and same day delivery. Services sales, which include veterinary hospitals, increased 13.1% and 15.9% during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, respectively, reflecting expansion of our veterinary hospital footprint and strong growth in veterinary and grooming customers.

Gross Profit

Gross profit decreased $4.9 million, or 0.8%, to $594.5 million in the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to gross profit of $599.4 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of sales, our gross profit rate was 40.1% for the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with 41.8% for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021. Gross profit increased $5.8 million, or 0.5%, to $1,202.2 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to gross profit of $1,196.4 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of sales, our gross profit rate was 40.7% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with 42.0% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. The decrease in gross profit rate between the periods was primarily due to the mix impact of strong consumables sales and lower supplies and companion animal sales during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022. While the strong consumables mix impacts the gross margin rate, the average consumables customer has a higher lifetime value than most other categories of customer. Sales channel impacts driven by strength in our digital and services business, moderate increases in distribution costs, and one-time integration costs relating to the purchase of the remaining stake in our veterinary joint venture also contributed to the decrease in gross profit rate during the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 as compared to the prior year periods.

Selling, General and Administrative (“SG&A”) Expenses

SG&A expenses increased $18.5 million, or 3.5%, to $544.5 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to $525.9 million for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 36.8% for the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with 36.7% for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021. The increase in SG&A expenses period-over-period was to support our growth as we continue to invest in infrastructure and our people, along with higher variable costs on increased sales and integration costs relating to the purchase of the remaining stake in our veterinary joint venture.

SG&A expenses increased $27.0 million, or 2.5%, to $1,102.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared to $1,075.2 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 37.3% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with 37.7% for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, reflecting operating leverage from net sales growth. The increase in SG&A expenses period-over-period was to support our growth as we continue to invest in infrastructure and our people and was partially offset by a decrease in advertising expenses, primarily due to investments that were made during the twenty-six week period ended July 31, 2021 for our rebranding campaign, inclusive of a TV launch and associated advertisements.

Interest Expense

Interest expense increased $2.6 million, or 13.6%, to $21.8 million in the thirteen weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with $19.2 million in the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021. Interest expense increased $1.8 million, or 4.3%, to $41.5 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with $39.7 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. The increase was primarily driven by higher interest rates on the First Lien Term Loan. For more information on these obligations, refer to Note 3, “Senior Secured Credit Facilities,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Loss on Extinguishment and Modification of Debt

Loss on extinguishment and modification of debt was $20.8 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. This loss was recognized in conjunction with the March 2021 refinancing of the Amended Term Loan Facility and Amended Revolving Credit Facility. There was no loss on debt extinguishment and modification for the thirteen weeks ended July 31, 2021 or the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022. For more information regarding these activities, refer to Note 3, “Senior Secured Credit Facilities,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Other Non-Operating Loss (Income)

Other non-operating loss was $10.3 million and $10.0 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, respectively. Other non-operating income was $45.2 million for both the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. These losses and gains relate to non-cash remeasurements of the fair value of our investment in Rover Group, Inc. For more information regarding this activity, refer to Note 4, “Fair Value Measurements,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Income Tax Expense

Our effective tax rates were 32.9% and 30.3% resulting in income tax expense of $6.6 million and $16.6 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, respectively, compared to effective tax rates of 26.5% and 26.4% resulting in income tax expense of $27.0 million and $29.7 million for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in effective tax rates for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 is primarily driven by the impact of lower pretax earnings and an increase in nondeductible executive compensation subject to Section 162(m) of the Internal Revenue Code.

Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures

The following information provides definitions and reconciliations of certain non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures are not calculated in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the most comparable GAAP measures. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may differ from similarly-titled measures used by other companies.

Adjusted EBITDA

We present Adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure, because we believe it enhances an investor’s understanding of our financial and operational performance by excluding certain material non-cash items, unusual or non-recurring items that we do not expect to continue in the future, and certain other adjustments we believe are or are not reflective of our ongoing operations and performance. Adjusted EBITDA enables operating performance to be reviewed across reporting periods on a consistent basis. We use Adjusted EBITDA as one of the principal measures to evaluate and monitor our operating financial performance and to compare our performance to others in our industry. We also use Adjusted EBITDA in connection with establishing discretionary annual incentive compensation targets, to make budgeting decisions, to make strategic decisions regarding the allocation of capital, and to report our quarterly results as defined in our debt agreements, although under such agreements the measure is calculated differently and is used for different purposes.

Adjusted EBITDA is not a substitute for net income (loss), the most comparable GAAP measure, and is subject to a number of limitations as a financial measure, so it should be used in conjunction with GAAP financial measures and not in isolation. There can be no assurances that we will not modify the presentation of Adjusted EBITDA in the future. In addition, other companies in our industry may define Adjusted EBITDA differently, limiting its usefulness as a comparative measure.  Refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Reconciliation of Non-GAAP Financial Measures to GAAP Measures” included in the 2021 Form 10-K for more information regarding how we define Adjusted EBITDA.

Mexico joint venture EBITDA represents 50% of the entity’s operating results for the periods presented, as adjusted to reflect the results on a basis comparable to our Adjusted EBITDA. In the financial statements, this joint venture is accounted for as an equity method investment and reported net of depreciation and income taxes. Because such a presentation would not reflect the adjustments made in our calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, we include our 50% interest in our Mexico joint venture on an Adjusted EBITDA basis to ensure consistency.

Free Cash Flow

Free Cash Flow is a non-GAAP financial measure that is calculated as net cash provided by operating activities less cash paid for fixed assets. Management believes that Free Cash Flow, which measures our ability to generate additional cash from our business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the Company’s financial performance.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

Our primary sources of liquidity are funds generated by operating activities and available capacity for borrowings on our $500 million secured asset-based revolving credit facility maturing March 4, 2026 (the “ABL Revolving Credit Facility”). Our ability to fund our operations, to make planned capital investments, to make scheduled debt payments and to repay or refinance indebtedness depends on our future operating performance and cash flows, which are subject to prevailing economic conditions and financial, business, and other factors, some of which are beyond our control. Our liquidity as of July 30, 2022 was $569.1 million, inclusive of cash and cash equivalents of $125.2 million and $443.9 million of availability on the ABL Revolving Credit Facility.

We are a party to contractual obligations involving commitments to make payments to third parties. These obligations impact our short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs. We believe that our current resources, together with anticipated cash flows from operations and borrowing capacity under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility will be sufficient to finance our operations, meet our current cash requirements, and fund anticipated capital investments for at least the next 12 months. We may, however, seek additional financing to fund future

23


 

growth or refinance our existing indebtedness through the debt capital markets, but we cannot be assured that such financing will be available on favorable terms, or at all.

Operating Activities

Our primary source of operating cash is sales of products and services to customers, which are substantially all on a cash basis, and therefore provide us with a significant source of liquidity. Our primary uses of cash in operating activities include: purchases of inventory; freight and warehousing costs; employee-related expenditures; occupancy-related costs for our pet care centers, distribution centers and corporate support centers; credit card fees; interest under our debt agreements; and marketing expenses. Net cash provided by operating activities is impacted by our net income (loss) adjusted for certain non-cash items, including: depreciation, amortization, impairments and write-offs; amortization of debt discounts and issuance costs; deferred income taxes; equity-based compensation; impairments of goodwill and intangible assets; other non-operating income; and the effect of changes in operating assets and liabilities.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $100.1 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 compared with net cash provided by operating activities of $202.4 million in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021. The decrease in operating cash flow was due to lower operating income, an increase in cash paid for inventory, and payouts of prior year accrued incentive bonuses. This was partially offset by working capital benefit generated by higher sales as well as lower cash payments on operating leases due to the timing of rent payments.

 

Investing Activities

Cash used in investing activities consists of capital expenditures, which in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 and the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 primarily supported our transformation initiatives. Net cash used in investing activities was $172.0 million and $102.6 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 and July 31, 2021, respectively. The increase in capital expenditures between the periods was predominantly due to the build-out of our veterinary hospitals, investments in digital assets and innovation in response to our sales growth. In addition, in May 2022, we completed the purchase of the remaining 50% stake in our veterinary joint venture for $35.0 million, which is now a wholly owned subsidiary.

 

Financing Activities

Net cash used in financing activities was $22.3 million for the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022, compared with $11.2 million used in financing activities in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021.

Financing cash flows in the twenty-six weeks ended July 30, 2022 primarily consisted of quarterly repayments on the term loan and payments for tax withholdings on stock-based awards.

Financing cash flows in the twenty-six weeks ended July 31, 2021 primarily consisted of borrowings and repayments of debt in connection with the March 4, 2021 debt refinancing transaction discussed under “Sources of Liquidity” below. For more information regarding these activities, refer to Note 3 “Senior Secured Credit Facilities,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Sources of Liquidity

On March 4, 2021, the Company completed a refinancing transaction by repaying the Amended Term Loan Facility and entering into a new $1,700 million secured term loan facility maturing on March 4, 2028 (the “First Lien Term Loan”) and the ABL Revolving Credit Facility, which matures on March 4, 2026 and has availability of up to $500.0 million, subject to a borrowing base. Interest under the First Lien Term Loan is based on, at the Company’s option, either a base rate or Adjusted LIBOR, subject to a 0.75% floor, payable upon maturity of the LIBOR contract, in either case plus the applicable rate. The base rate is the greater of the bank prime rate, federal funds effective rate plus 0.5% or Adjusted LIBOR plus 1.0%. The applicable rate is 2.25% per annum for a base rate loan or 3.25% per annum for an Adjusted LIBOR loan. Principal payments are $4.25 million quarterly and commenced on June 30, 2021. The terms under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility are substantially similar to those of the Amended Revolving Credit Facility.

For more information regarding this indebtedness, refer to Note 3, Senior Secured Credit Facilities,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The preparation of our consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) requires us to make assumptions and estimates about future results and apply judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, net sales, expenses and related disclosures. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience, current trends and other factors that we believe to be relevant at the time our consolidated financial statements are prepared. On an ongoing basis, we review the accounting policies, assumptions, estimates and judgments to ensure that our financial statements are presented fairly and in accordance with GAAP. However, because future events and their effects cannot be determined with certainty, actual results could differ from our assumptions and estimates, and such differences could be material.

There have been no material changes to our critical accounting policies and estimates as compared to the critical accounting policies and estimates described in the 2021 Form 10-K.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Refer to Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies,” to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q for information regarding recently issued accounting pronouncements.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are subject to market risks arising from transactions in the normal course of our business. These risks are primarily associated with interest rate fluctuations, as well as changes in our credit standing, based on the capital and credit markets, which are not predictable. We do not currently hold any instruments for trading purposes.

Interest Rate Risk

We are subject to interest rate risk in connection with the First Lien Term Loan and the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. As of July 30, 2022, we had $1,678.8 million outstanding under the First Lien Term Loan and no amounts outstanding under the ABL Revolving Credit Facility. The First Lien Term Loan and the ABL Revolving Credit Facility each bear interest at variable rates. An increase of 100 basis points in the variable rates on the First Lien Term Loan and the ABL Revolving Credit Facility as of July 30, 2022 would have increased annual cash interest in the aggregate by approximately $17.0 million.

We cannot predict market fluctuations in interest rates and their impact on our debt, nor can there be any assurance that long-term fixed-rate debt will be available at favorable rates, if at all. Consequently, future results may differ materially from estimated results due to adverse changes in interest rates or debt availability.

Credit Risk

As of July 30, 2022, our cash and cash equivalents were maintained at major financial institutions in the United States, and our current deposits are likely in excess of insured limits. We believe these institutions have

25


 

sufficient assets and liquidity to conduct their operations in the ordinary course of business with little or no credit risk to us.

Foreign Currency Risk

Substantially all of our business is currently conducted in U.S. dollars. We do not believe that an immediate 10% increase or decrease in the relative value of the U.S. dollar as compared to other currencies would have a material effect on our operating results.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Management’s Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

We maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required financial disclosure.

As of the end of the period covered by this Form 10-Q, our management, under the supervision and with the participation of our principal executive officer and principal financial officer, evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e). Based upon this evaluation, our principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable assurance level as of July 30, 2022.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended July 30, 2022, which has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

 

Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls

 

Our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives. Management does not expect, however, that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent or detect all error and fraud. Any control system, no matter how well designed and operated, is based on certain assumptions and can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that its objectives will be met. Further, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that misstatements due to error or fraud will not occur or that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.
