La-Z-Boy Incorporated (NYSE: LZB), a global leader in the retail
and manufacture of residential furniture, today reported strong
second quarter results for the period ended October 26, 2024.
For the quarter, sales totaled $521 million, growing 2% against the
prior year comparable period. Operating margin was 7.4% for the
quarter on a GAAP basis and 7.5% on a Non-GAAP(1) basis. Diluted
earnings per share totaled $0.71 on a GAAP and Non-GAAP(1) basis.
The company returned $70 million to shareholders through the first
two quarters, nearly double last year's comparable period.
Written sales trends also remained solid, with
second quarter total written sales for the Retail segment
(company-owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries®) up 6% versus a year
ago and written same-store sales (which exclude the impact of newly
opened stores and newly acquired stores) down a modest 1% versus a
year ago. Written same-store sales for the entire La-Z-Boy
Furniture Galleries® network also decreased 1% versus the year ago
period. Trends were strongest during the Labor Day period, with
solid results driven by accelerated consumer traffic and superior
in-store execution. Furniture and Home Furnishings advance monthly
retail sales growth as reported by the U.S. Census Bureau was +1%
for our fiscal quarter driven by growth in home furnishings, sundry
items for the home that are outside of our primary focus. The
industry remains challenged with home-related spending impacted by
higher mortgage rates and a lack of housing affordability and
availability.
Melinda D. Whittington, President and Chief
Executive Officer of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, said, “Our second
quarter results demonstrate the continued progress we are making
against our strategic pillars and our strong execution throughout
the enterprise. We were pleased to deliver a second consecutive
quarter of sales growth across our business despite the continued
challenging macroeconomic trends. The combination of our iconic
brand, strong product portfolio particularly in reclining and
motion furniture, and our talented team again produced steady
results against persistently weak consumer demand. In our
company-owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries®, conversion rates,
average ticket, and design sales all improved again year-over-year.
We are consistently solving for the unique needs of our consumers
and transforming houses into homes with our high quality,
comfortable custom furniture solutions.”
Whittington added, “While our Retail segment
continues to lead the way, our Wholesale and Joybird businesses
similarly made steady progress in the quarter. With our long
heritage of made in North America manufacturing, customers continue
to gravitate towards our handcrafted, customized product offering.
Additionally, our Joybird brand is making meaningful improvements
on its path to sustained profitable growth. Our Century Vision
strategy continues to deliver and we have considerable runway ahead
as we transform for the next hundred years. What will endure is the
comfort, quality, and customization for which our iconic La-Z-Boy
brand is known. We view these as our true differentiators, which
will uniquely position us to continue to outperform the industry
and grow share over the longer term.”
Third Quarter
Outlook: Bob Lucian, Chief Financial
Officer of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, said, “Our strong performance in
the quarter is another proof point of controlling what we can
control and driving positive outcomes in a challenged industry. We
outperformed our guidance with strong performance particularly
around the Labor Day holiday, impressive execution, and a resolute
focus on improving the agility of our operations. Furniture and
home furnishings related spending continues to be soft, but we are
outperforming the industry in a sustainable manner. Our expectation
is for industry sales trends to remain under pressure, though we
expect our growth to continue to outpace the industry. Taking those
factors into account, we expect fiscal third quarter sales to be in
the range of $505-525 million (an increase of 1-5% year-over-year)
and Non-GAAP operating margin(2) to be in the range of 6-7%.”

Fiscal 2025 Second Quarter Results
versus Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter:
- Consolidated sales in the second
quarter of Fiscal 2025 increased 2% to $521 million versus last
year, primarily driven by higher delivered volume within our Retail
segment and Joybird business
- Consolidated GAAP operating margin
was 7.4% versus 6.6%
- Consolidated Non-GAAP(1) operating margin decreased 40 basis
points to 7.5% versus 7.9%, due to demand challenges in our
casegoods import business and a significant temporary customer
disruption in our international wholesale business
- GAAP diluted EPS increased to $0.71
from $0.63 and Non-GAAP(1) diluted EPS totaled $0.71 versus $0.74
last year in the comparable period
Retail Segment:
- Sales:
- Written sales for the Retail
segment (company-owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores)
increased 6% with growth from new and acquired stores, more than
offsetting slightly lower same-store sales compared to the year ago
period
- Written same-store sales decreased 1%, driven by lower traffic
from softer industry-wide demand, partially offset by strong
execution driving higher conversion rates
- Delivered sales increased 3% to
$222 million versus last year, primarily due to growth from new and
acquired stores
- Operating Margin:
- GAAP operating margin and GAAP operating income were 12.6% and
$28 million, versus 13.0% and $28 million, respectively
- Non-GAAP(1) operating margin and
Non-GAAP(1) operating income were 12.6% and $28 million, down 40
basis points and flat, respectively, driven by an increase in
selling expense and fixed costs supporting our long-term strategy
of growing our Retail business through new and acquired stores,
partially offset by gross margin improvements resulting from a
favorable shift in product mix
Wholesale Segment:
- Sales:
- Sales were roughly flat at $364
million, as higher sales to our Retail segment mostly offset
lowered delivered sales in our international wholesale
business
- Operating Margin:
- GAAP operating margin was 6.7% versus 5.9%
- Non-GAAP(1) operating margin was
6.8%, down 90 basis points from the year ago period driven by
demand and macroeconomic challenges in our casegoods import
business and fixed cost deleverage on lower sales in our
international wholesale business due to a significant temporary
customer disruption
Corporate & Other:
- Joybird written sales increased 1%
and delivered sales increased 20% to $39 million on stronger sales
trends in both our online and retail businesses
- Joybird operating margin
performance saw year-over-year improvement from higher gross
margins driven by favorable product mix and fixed cost leverage on
higher sales leading to breakeven operating margin
Balance Sheet and Cash Flow, Fiscal 2025
Second Quarter:
- Ended the quarter with $303 million
in cash(3) and no external debt
- Generated $16 million in cash from
operations versus $31 million in the second quarter of last fiscal
year. Year to date, cash flow from operations was $68 million, up
20% from last year's comparable period

expenditures, primarily related to La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries®

to shareholders, including $19 million in share repurchases and $8
million in dividends. Year to date, $70 million has been returned
to shareholders, nearly double the same period last year

November 19, 2024, the Board of Directors declared a quarterly cash
dividend of $0.22 per share on the common stock of the company, a
10% increase over the previous dividend. The dividend will be paid

of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” and “Reconciliation of GAAP

Cautionary Note Regarding
Forward-Looking Statements: This news
release contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of
the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995.
Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they
do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. Generally,
forward-looking statements include information concerning
expectations, projections or trends relating to our results of
operations, financial results, financial condition, strategic
initiatives and plans, expenses, dividends, share repurchases,
liquidity, use of cash and cash requirements, borrowing capacity,
investments, future economic performance, and our business and
industry.
The forward-looking statements in this press
release are based on certain assumptions and currently available
information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties,
many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control. Additional
risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that
we currently consider to be immaterial may also affect our business
operations and financial results. Our actual future results and
trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors,
including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties
discussed in our Fiscal 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other
factors identified in our reports filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), available on the SEC’s website at
www.sec.gov. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not
rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual
results. We are including this cautionary note to make applicable
and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private
Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking
statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any
forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information,
future events or for any other reason.
Non-GAAP Financial
Measures: In addition to the financial
measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles
generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”), this press
release also includes Non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses
these Non-GAAP financial measures when assessing our ongoing
performance. This press release contains references to Non-GAAP
operating income (on a consolidated basis and by segment), Non-GAAP
operating margin (on a consolidated basis and by segment), and
Non-GAAP net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated per
diluted share, Non-GAAP diluted earnings per share (and components
thereof, including Non-GAAP income before income taxes and Non-GAAP
net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated), each of which
may exclude, as applicable, supply chain optimization charges and
purchase accounting charges. The supply chain optimization charges
include asset impairment costs, accelerated depreciation expense,
lease termination gains, severance costs, and employee relocation
costs related to shifting upholstery production from our Ramos,
Mexico operations to other upholstery plants and relocating our cut
and sew operations back to Ramos, Mexico, resulting in the
permanent closure of our leased cut and sew facility in Parras,
Mexico. The purchase accounting charges include the amortization of
intangible assets, incremental expense upon the sale of inventory
acquired at fair value, and fair value adjustments of future cash
payments recorded as interest expense. These Non-GAAP financial
measures are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute
for La-Z-Boy Incorporated’s results of operations prepared in
accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled
measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of such
Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP
financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables.
Management believes that presenting certain
Non-GAAP financial measures will help investors understand the
long-term profitability trends of our business and compare our
profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers.
Management excludes purchase accounting charges because the amount
and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the
timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions consummated and
the success with which we operate the businesses acquired. While
the company has a history of acquisition activity, it does not
acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the impact of
purchase accounting charges is unique to each acquisition and can
vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. Similarly,
supply chain optimization charges are dependent on the timing,
size, number and nature of the operations being closed,
consolidated or centralized, and the charges may not be incurred on
a predictable cycle. Management believes that exclusion of these
items facilitates more consistent comparisons of the company’s
operating results over time. Where applicable, the accompanying
“Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables
present the excluded items net of tax calculated using the
effective tax rate from operations for the period in which the
adjustment is presented.
