Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, Adjusted EPS, and Free Cash Flow are non-GAAP financial measures. Beginning in fiscal 2023, the company has made certain changes to how it defines these metrics that impact the comparability to prior periods. See "Changes in non-GAAP Definitions and Fiscal 2023 Outlook" and "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" for additional information on changes to these non-GAAP financial measures, a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP measures, and a reconciliation between the differences in metric definitions pre- and post-fiscal 2023 for all periods presented.

 

Changes in non-GAAP Definitions and Fiscal 2023 Outlook

Beginning in fiscal 2023, Petco has made certain changes to its definitions for Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS that impact the comparability of the metrics to prior periods.  Specifically, Petco will no longer include store pre-opening expenses, store closing expenses, non-cash occupancy costs, and certain other costs in its non-GAAP add-backs. Accordingly, Petco's 2023 Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS guidance reflects Petco's updated definition of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS.  See "Non-GAAP Financial Measures" below for additional details of these changes and a reconciliation of the definitions prior to fiscal 2023 to allow for like-for-like comparisons to the new definitions for all periods presented.  

Furthermore, Fiscal 2023 will be a 53-week year for Petco, leading to an incremental week of operations relative to Fiscal 2022. 

Given the foregoing, inclusive of Petco's expected 53rd week of operations, the company expects:

Metric*

2023

Guidance, YoY

Net Revenue

$6.150 billion to $6.275 billion

Adjusted EBITDA

Down approx. $10 million to up approx. $10 million

Adjusted EPS

Down $0.21 to down $0.13

Capital Expenditures

$225 million to $250 million

 

In light of the current macroeconomic environment, the company is providing one-time commentary on its debt paydown expectations.  In Fiscal 2023, the company expects to make a total of $100 million in principal payments on its term loan, which is inclusive of the $35 million paid in March detailed above.

*Assumptions in the guidance include that economic conditions, currency rates and the tax and regulatory landscape remain generally consistent. Adjusted EPS guidance assumes approximately $145 to $155 million of  interest expense, an estimated $44 to $54 million increase in interest expense, a 26 percent tax rate, and a 273 million weighted average diluted share count. 

The Company estimates that the increase in interest expense will impact Adjusted EPS by approximately $0.12 to $0.15 per share.  Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are non-GAAP financial measures and have not been reconciled to the most comparable GAAP outlook because it is not possible to do so without unreasonable efforts due to the uncertainty and potential variability of reconciling items, which are dependent on future events and often outside of management's control and which could be significant. Because such items cannot be reasonably predicted with the level of precision required, we are unable to provide outlook for the comparable GAAP measures. Forward-looking estimates of Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EPS are made in a manner consistent with the relevant definitions and assumptions noted herein and in our filings with the SEC.

Earnings Conference Call Webcast Information:

Management will host an earnings conference call on March 22, 2023 at 8:00 AM Eastern Time to discuss the company's financial results. The conference call will be accessible through live webcast. Interested  investors and other individuals can access the webcast, earnings release, earnings presentation, infographic, and earnings supplement via the company's investor relations page at ir.petco.com. A replay of the webcast will be archived on the company's investor relations page through April 5, 2023 until approximately 5:00 PM Eastern Time.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

The following information provides definitions and reconciliations of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release to the most directly comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP). The company has provided this non-GAAP financial information, which is not calculated or presented in accordance with GAAP, as information supplemental and in addition to the financial measures presented in this earnings release that are calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP. Such non-GAAP financial measures should not be considered superior to, as a substitute for or alternative to, and should be considered in conjunction with, the GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release. The non-GAAP financial measures in this earnings release may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies.

Beginning in fiscal 2023, Petco has made certain changes to how it defines Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS that impact the comparability of the metrics to prior periods.  Specifically, Petco will no longer include store pre-opening expenses, store closing expenses, non-cash occupancy costs, and certain other costs in its non-GAAP add-backs. Details of these changes and a reconciliation of the definitions prior to fiscal 2023 to the go-forward definition is presented in the tables and related footnotes below. The tables below reflect the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income, and Adjusted EPS, as applicable, for the thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended January 28, 2023 compared to the thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended January 29, 2022, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA and Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA, including Trailing Twelve Month Adjusted EBITDA, is considered a non-GAAP financial measure under the Securities and Exchange Commission's (SEC) rules because it excludes certain amounts included in net income calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management believes that Adjusted EBITDA is a meaningful measure to share with investors because it facilitates comparison of the current period performance with that of the comparable prior period. In addition, Adjusted EBITDA affords investors a view of what management considers to be Petco's core operating performance as well as the ability to make a more informed assessment of such operating performance as compared with that of the prior period. Please see the company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 29, 2022 filed with the SEC on March 24, 2022 for additional information on Adjusted EBITDA.

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS

Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share attributable to Petco common stockholders (Adjusted EPS) are considered non-GAAP financial measures under the SEC's rules because they exclude certain amounts included in the net income attributable to Petco common stockholders and diluted earnings per share attributable to Petco common stockholders calculated in accordance with GAAP. Management  believes that Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS are meaningful measures to share with investors because they facilitate comparison of the current period performance with that of the comparable prior period. In addition, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS afford investors a view of what management considers to be Petco's core earnings performance as well as the ability to make a more informed assessment of such earnings performance with that of the prior period.

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 the ability to generate additional cash from business operations, is an important financial measure for use in evaluating the company's financial performance.

The table below reflects the calculation of Free Cash Flow for the thirteen and fifty-two weeks ended January 28, 2023 and January 29, 2022, respectively.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted Net Income and Adjusted EPS Footnotes

(1)

Mexico Joint Venture EBITDA represents 50 percent of the entity's operating results for all periods, as adjusted to reflect the results on a basis comparable to 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 the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA, we include the 50 percent interest in the company's Mexico joint venture on an Adjusted EBITDA basis to ensure consistency. The table below presents a reconciliation of Mexico joint venture net income to Mexico joint venture EBITDA.
