Regis Corporation (NYSE: RGS), a leader in the haircare industry, whose primary business is franchising, owning and operating technology enabled hair salons, today reported second quarter 2020 net loss from continuing operations of $9.5 million, or $0.26 loss per diluted share as compared to net income from continuing operations of $0.4 million, or $0.01 income per diluted share in the second quarter of 2019. The Company’s reported results include $20.7 million of non-cash goodwill derecognition associated with the sale of 443 salons to franchisees, partially offset by $2.6 million of other discrete items. Excluding discrete items and the income from discontinued operations, the Company reported second quarter 2020 adjusted net income of $4.6 million, or $0.13 earnings per diluted share as compared to adjusted net income of $8.0 million, or $0.18 earnings per diluted share, for the same period last year. The year-over-year decrease in adjusted net income was driven primarily by the elimination of adjusted net income that had been generated in the prior year period from the 1,447 company-owned salons that were sold and converted to the Company’s asset-light franchise portfolio over the past twelve months.

Total revenue in the quarter of $208.8 million decreased $65.9 million, or 24.0%, year-over-year driven primarily by the conversion of a net 1,447 company-owned salons to the Company's asset-light franchise portfolio over the past 12 months. These reductions were partially offset by revenue growth of $39.4 million in the Company's franchise segment. The Company noted that in connection with the new leasing guidance, it now records franchise rental income and the corresponding rental expense on separate line items. The net impact is to gross up both revenue and expense with no impact to overall earnings. The impact during the second quarter was an increase in revenue and expense by $33.6 million, with no impact on operating income.

Second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $17.0 million decreased $3.6 million, versus the same period last year. Excluding the $15.0 and $9.4 million gain from the sale of company-owned salons during the current and prior year quarter, respectively, adjusted EBITDA of $2.0 million was $9.2 million unfavorable versus the same period last year driven primarily by the elimination of EBITDA that had been generated in the prior year from the 1,447 company-owned salons that were sold and converted to the Company’s asset-light franchise portfolio over the past 12 months.

Hugh Sawyer, Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, "As we disclosed at the close of fiscal year 2019, the transition to a capital-light franchise model initially has a dilutive impact on the Company’s Adjusted EBITDA, as we saw this quarter. Nevertheless, we remain convinced that a fully-franchised business that generates a higher return on its capital will prove to be in the best long-term interests of our shareholders.” Mr. Sawyer continued, “The second quarter represents an important milestone in our transition where we gained additional clarity into the estimated end-state of our transformational process. We now believe that our transition to a fully-franchised business will be substantially complete by the end of this calendar year.” Mr. Sawyer concluded, “This improved visibility related to the speed of our transition enabled us to begin meaningful reductions in our annualized expenses and to initiate plans to re-engineer our capital structure in expectation of our estimated end-state and a new organic growth phase as a capital-light franchisor.”

Second quarter Franchise revenue was $79.8 million, a $39.4 million, or 97.5% increase compared to the prior year quarter and included franchise rental income of $33.6 million due to the adoption of the new lease accounting requirements. Royalties and fees were $29.3 million, a $6.7 million, or 29.8% increase versus the same period last year. Royalties and fees increased due to increased franchise salon counts. Product sales to franchisees of $16.9 million decreased $0.9 million versus the same period last year driven primarily by lower sales to TBG, partially offset by increased franchise salon counts.

Franchise adjusted EBITDA of $13.1 million grew $4.6 million, or 54.4% year-over-year primarily driven by the increase in salon counts.

(1) Variances calculated on amounts shown in millions may result in rounding differences.

(2) Includes the 207 mall-based salons that were acquired from TBG on December 31, 2019.

Second quarter revenue for the Company-owned salon segment decreased $105.3 million, or 45.0%, versus the prior year to $128.9 million. The year-over-year decline in revenue was driven by the decrease of a net 1,447 salons sold and converted to the Company's asset-light franchise portfolio over the past 12 months, the closure of a net 151 unprofitable salons over the past 12 months and by a decline in Company-owned same-store sales of 3.6%. The year-over-year decline in company-owned same store sales was driven by a 6.6% decrease in transactions, which may be partially related to the shorter number of retail days between Thanksgiving and Christmas in 2019, partially offset by a 3.0% increase in average ticket.

Second quarter adjusted EBITDA of $4.2 million decreased $17.1 million, or 80.1% versus the same period last year driven primarily by the elimination of EBITDA that had been generated in the prior year period from the 1,447 company-owned salons that were sold and converted to the Company's asset-light franchise portfolio over the past 12 months and the decline in service and product margins, partially offset by a decrease in marketing spend.

(1) System-wide same-store sales are calculated as the total change in sales for system-wide company-owned and franchise locations for more than one year (including TBG mall locations in 2019) that were open on a specific day of the week during the current period and the corresponding prior period. Quarterly and year-to-date system-wide same-store sales are the sum of the system-wide same-store sales computed on a daily basis. Franchise salons that do not report daily sales are excluded from same-store sales. Locations relocated within a one-mile radius are included in same-store sales as they are considered to have been open in the prior period. System-wide same-store sales are calculated in local currencies to remove foreign currency fluctuations from the calculation. TBG salons were not a franchise location in fiscal year 2020 so by definition they are not included in system-wide same-store sales. TBG same-store sales are excluded from fiscal year 2019 same-store sales to be comparative to fiscal year 2020.

Non-GAAP Reconciliations

We believe our presentation of non-GAAP operating (loss) income, net income, net income per diluted share, and other non-GAAP financial measures provides meaningful insight into our ongoing operating performance and an alternative perspective of our results of operations. Presentation of the non-GAAP measures allows investors to review our core ongoing operating performance from the same perspective as management and the Board of Directors. These non-GAAP financial measures provide investors an enhanced understanding of our operations, facilitate investors’ analyses and comparisons of our current and past results of operations and provide insight into the prospects of our future performance. We also believe the non-GAAP measures are useful to investors because they provide supplemental information research analysts frequently use to analyze financial performance.

The method we use to produce non-GAAP results is not in accordance with U.S. GAAP and may differ from methods used by other companies. These non-GAAP results should not be regarded as a substitute for corresponding U.S. GAAP measures but instead should be utilized as a supplemental measure of operating performance in evaluating our business. Non-GAAP measures do have limitations in that they do not reflect certain items that may have a material impact upon our reported financial results. As such, these non-GAAP measures should be viewed in conjunction with our financial statements prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

Non-GAAP reconciling items for the three and six ended months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018:

The following information is provided to give qualitative and quantitative information related to items impacting comparability. Items impacting comparability are not defined terms within U.S. GAAP. Therefore, our non-GAAP financial information may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. We determine which items to consider as “items impacting comparability” based on how management views our business, makes financial, operating and planning decisions and evaluates the Company’s ongoing performance. The following items have been excluded from our non-GAAP results:

(2) Total is a recalculation; line items calculated individually may not sum to total due to rounding.

(3) Non-GAAP net income per share reflects the weighted average shares associated with non-GAAP net income, which includes the dilutive effect of common stock equivalents. The earnings per share impact of the adjustments for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 included additional shares for common stock equivalents of 1.3 million. The impact of the adjustments described above result in the effect of the common stock equivalents to be dilutive to the non-GAAP net income per share.

REGIS CORPORATION
Reconciliation of reported U.S. GAAP net income (loss) to adjusted EBITDA, a non-GAAP financial measure
(Dollars in thousands)
(Unaudited)

Adjusted EBITDA
EBITDA represents U.S. GAAP net (loss) income for the respective period excluding interest expense, income taxes and depreciation and amortization expense. The Company defines adjusted EBITDA, as EBITDA excluding identified items impacting comparability for each respective period. For the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, the items impacting comparability consisted of the items identified in the non-GAAP reconciling items for the respective periods. The impacts of the income tax provision adjustments associated with the above items are already included in the U.S. GAAP reported net (loss) income to EBITDA reconciliation, therefore there is no adjustment needed for the reconciliation from EBITDA to adjusted EBITDA.
