Caleres Reports Fourth Quarter and Full Year 2021 Results

  • Achieves all-time record annual operating earnings and operating margins
  • Announces Board authorization of an incremental 7 million shares to its share repurchase program
  • Provides full-year 2022 earnings per share guidance of $3.75 to $4.00

Caleres (NYSE: CAL, caleres.com), a diverse portfolio of consumer-driven footwear brands, today reported financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended January 29, 2022.

“The Caleres team delivered its best-ever financial performance in 2021, with adjusted earnings per share that was nearly double the company’s previous all-time record,” said Diane Sullivan, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Caleres capped off that exceptional 2021 performance with record-setting fourth quarter results, providing significant momentum as we head into fiscal 2022. These excellent results demonstrate the strength of our portfolio of brands, the success of our advanced operating capabilities, the tremendous efforts and talents of our global Associates and the significant value-enhancing transformation of the organization.”

During the quarter, Famous Footwear leveraged its concentration of sought-after brands and trend-right products to capitalize on robust consumer demand, resulting in an exceptional quarterly sales performance that was 8.8 percent higher than fourth quarter 2019, as well as a gross margin rate that was 641 basis points higher than the same period two years ago. At the same time, the Brand Portfolio continued its steady recovery post the pandemic, returning to solid profitability and establishing a strong foundation for a significantly improved earnings contribution in 2022. Notably, four of the portfolio’s key leadership brands – Sam Edelman, Allen Edmonds, Vionic and Blowfish – surpassed fourth quarter 2019 earnings levels.

“Looking ahead, given the positive structural changes we’ve made across the business, Caleres is poised for another strong earnings performance in 2022,” said Sullivan. “As we begin the year, we are intently focused on unlocking growth opportunities across the enterprise while taking additional steps to mitigate supply chain and inflationary pressures. Our powerful and diverse portfolio is uniquely positioned to meet consumer needs and capture growth across trending footwear categories such as event, occasion, and work, while at the same time continuing to capitalize on robust demand for still-popular athletic and sport-inspired styles.

“In short, Caleres is a much more agile and financially fit organization than it was two years ago. We have intensified our commitment to connect with current consumers, engage new customers and provide an elevated omni-channel experience, while also delivering fresh and compelling footwear across our portfolio of brands. We are confident that the investments we have made and the strategic priorities we have set in motion will enable Caleres to continue to drive long-term, sustainable value for our shareholders.”

Commitment to Enhancing Shareholder Value

During 2021, Caleres generated $168.4 million in cash from operations and used that cash to improve its financial position and continue its balanced capital return program. Among the highlights, the company:

  • Proactively replaced its higher-cost long-term debt with additional drawings under its lower-cost revolving credit facility.
  • Ended fiscal 2021 with $290 million of total debt – down from $448.9 million at the end of fiscal 2020. The actions to reduce and reposition the debt should lower the company’s 2022 annual interest expense by approximately $20 million versus 2019 levels.
  • Paid $10.6 million in dividends.
  • Repurchased 661,265 shares for approximately $17 million.

This strengthened financial position and potential for ongoing robust cash generation provides Caleres the flexibility to continue to return capital to shareholders, better align supply with consumer demand and invest in its long-term strategic initiatives.

The company’s Board of Directors recently authorized an incremental 7 million shares to its opportunistic share repurchase program. With this increase, the company has 9 million shares of Caleres common stock remaining for purchase under the program.

Financial Outlook

“Clearly, fiscal 2021 was an exceptional year for Caleres with the company delivering record adjusted earnings per share,” said Sullivan. “We believe that our business has taken a step-change forward in its sustainable earnings expectations. Going forward, given the significant structural changes we have made across a range of critical performance areas, including financial, operational, marketing and logistics we expect our operating margin rate, return on sales and gross margin rate will exceed historical averages.”

Fiscal Year 2022 Outlook:

Inclusive of the company’s current expectations for its underlying business along with anticipated macro challenges that include inflationary pressures, ongoing supply chain dislocations, and lack of comparable governmental stimulus efforts, among others, Caleres expects consolidated sales to be flat to up 3 percent to 2021 sales and earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $3.75 to $4.00. Note this earnings range reflects an approximately 75 percent increase – at the midpoint – above the company’s pre-pandemic high-water mark of $2.21. With the momentum coming out of the fourth quarter, the company expects 50 percent of its earnings to be in the first half of 2022.
