BIG DOG HOLDINGS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARY
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS (Unaudited)
NOTE 1. Basis of Presentation:
The accompanying unaudited financial statements have been prepared in
accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial
information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulations
S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes
required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial
statements.
In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting only of normal
recurring entries necessary for a fair presentation have been included.
Operating results for the three month period ended March 31, 1999 are not
necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ended
December 31, 1999. For further information, refer to the financial statements
and footnotes thereto for Big Dog Holdings, Inc. and its wholly owned
subsidiary, Big Dog USA, Inc. (the "Company") included in the Company's Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998.
NOTE 2. Short-term Borrowings
The Company has a borrowing arrangement with a bank whereby the Company
may, from time to time and upon approval from the bank, borrow up to $8 million.
Such borrowings may be used for cash advances and letters of credit. The
borrowing arrangement provides for interest at the bank's prime rate less 3/8%
or 250 basis points over the LIBOR rate and is collateralized by substantially
all the assets of the Company. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had no advances
and $250,000 of letters of credit outstanding. The letters of credit expire
through December 31, 1999.
NOTE 3. Dividend Paid
On March 6, 1999, the Company paid an annual dividend to stockholders of
record at the close of business on February 22, 1999, in the amount of $0.10 per
share, totaling $1,210,000.
NOTE 4. Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In June 1998, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Statement of
Financial Accounting Standards ("SFAS") No. 133, "Accounting for Derivative
Instruments and Hedging Activities." SFAS No. 133 establishes accounting and
reporting standards for derivative instruments, including certain derivative
instruments embedded in other contracts (collectively referred to as
derivatives), and for hedging activities. It requires that an entity recognize
all derivatives as either assets or liabilities in the statement of financial
position and measure those instruments at fair value. The Company will adopt
SFAS No. 133 in the year ending December 31, 2000. The Company anticipates that
the adoption of SFAS No. 133 will not have a material impact on the Company's
financial statements.
ITEM 2:
MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS
OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Management's discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the
Company's financial statements and notes related thereto. Certain minor
differences in the amounts below result from rounding of the amounts shown in
the consolidated financial statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Three Months Ended March 31, 1999 and 1998
NET SALES. Net sales consist of sales from the Company's stores, catalog,
and wholesale accounts, all net of returns and allowances. Net sales increased
to $16.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $14.2 million
for the same period in 1998, an increase of $2.5 million or 17.6%. Of the
increase, $1.6 million was attributable to stores not yet qualifying as
comparable stores, $0.3 million from a 2.3% comparable stores sales increase and
$0.6 million from an increase in the Company's wholesale business.
GROSS PROFIT. Gross profit increased to $8.9 million for the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from $7.7 million for the same period in 1998, an increase
of $1.2 million or 15.6%. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit decreased
to 53.1% in the three months ended March 31, 1999 from 53.8% in the same period
in 1998. This 0.7% decrease was due in part to a change in product sales mix and
an increase in lower-margined wholesale sales.
SELLING, MARKETING AND DISTRIBUTION EXPENSES. Selling, marketing and
distribution expenses consist of expenses associated with creating, distributing
and selling products through all channels of distribution, including occupancy,
payroll and catalog costs. Selling, marketing and distribution expenses
increased to $11.3 million in the three months ended March 31, 1999 from $10.5
million in the same period for 1998, an increase of $0.8 million, or 7.6%. As a
percentage of net sales, these expenses decreased to 67.6% in the three months
ended March 31, 1999 from 73.5% in the same period in 1998. The 5.9% decrease in
selling, marketing and distribution expenses is primarily attributable to
operating efficiencies achieved with respect to the Company's distribution
center.
GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES. General and administrative expenses
consist of administrative salaries, corporate occupancy costs and other
corporate expenses. General and administrative expenses remained constant at
$1.2 million for the three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998. As a percentage
of net sales, these expenses decreased to 7.3% in the three months ended March
31, 1999 from 8.1% in the same period in 1998. The percentage decrease in
general and administrative expenses reflects the operating leverage of spreading
these expenses over a larger revenue base.
INTEREST INCOME. Interest income decreased to $0.1 million in the three
months ended March 31, 1999 from $0.3 million in the same period in 1998,
principally due to lower cash balances in 1998.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
During the first quarter of 1999, the Company's primary uses of cash were
for merchandise inventories, income taxes and dividends paid to stockholders.
The Company satisfied its cash requirements primarily from cash flow from
operations and excess cash.
Cash used in operating activities was $8.7 million and $9.0 million for the
first three months ended March 31, 1999 and 1998, respectively.
Cash used in investment activities for the three months ended March 31,
1999 and 1998 were $0.8 million and $1.5 million, respectively. Cash flows used
in investment activities in the first quarter of 1999 related to the build-out
of the second floor mezzanine at the Company's distribution facility and capital
additions to the Company's existing stores. Cash flows used in investment
activities in the first quarter of 1998 related primarily to build-out and
equipment purchases related to the Company's distribution facility and 4 new
store openings.
Cash used in financing activities in the three months ended March 31, 1999
and 1998 were $1.2 million and $1.0 million, respectively. In the three months
ended March 31, 1999, the Company paid an annual dividend of $0.10 per share to
stockholders. In the same period of 1998, the Company repurchased 149,000 shares
of its common stock for a total purchase price of $988,000.
The Company has a borrowing arrangement with a bank whereby the Company
may, from time to time and upon approval from the bank, borrow up to $8 million.
Such borrowings may be used for cash advances and letters of credit. The
borrowing arrangement provides for interest at the bank's prime rate less 3/8%
or 250 basis points over the LIBOR rate and is collateralized by substantially
all the assets of the Company. As of March 31, 1999, the Company had no advances
and $250,000 of letters of credit outstanding. The letters of credit expire
through December 31, 1999.
SEASONALITY
The Company believes its seasonality is somewhat different than many
apparel retailers since a significant number of the Company's stores are located
in tourist areas and outdoor malls that have different visitation patterns than
urban and suburban retail centers. The third and fourth quarters (consisting of
the summer vacation, back-to-school and Christmas seasons) have historically
accounted for the largest percentage of the Company's annual sales and profits.
The Company has historically incurred operating losses in its first quarter and
may be expected to do so in the foreseeable future.
YEAR 2000
The Year 2000 issue is the result of computer programs being written to use
two digits to define year dates. Computer programs running date-sensitive
software may recognize a date using "00" as the year 1900 rather than the year
2000. This could result in systems failure or miscalculations causing
disruptions of operations.
In March 1999, the Company completed the upgrading of its major software
systems to a new release which has been certified as Year 2000 compliant. The
Company has substantially completed the internal testing of its information
technology systems and will continue to monitor such systems through the summer
of 1999. The Company has also addressed internally its non-information
technology related systems and expects no significant operational problems
relating to the Year 2000 issues. The costs of the Company's Year 2000
compliance project are not expected to be material to the Company's financial
position.
The Company has requested all significant third-party vendors to certify
Year 2000 compliance. While there can be no guaranty that such vendors will be
Year 2000 compliant, the Company does not expect any material adverse impact on
its business operations by the failure of any of its vendors to complete any
required changes related to the Year 2000 date conversion.
STATEMENT REGARDING FORWARD LOOKING DISCLOSURE
Certain sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, including the
preceding "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and
Results of Operations," contain various forward looking statements within the
meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended and Section 21E
of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, which represents the
Company's expectations or beliefs concerning future events. These forward
looking statements involve risk and uncertainties, and the Company cautions that
these statements are further qualified by important factors that could cause
actual results to differ materially from those in the forward looking
statements. Primary factors that could cause actual results to differ include
those listed in the Company's Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 1998
filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission.
