FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE:</b>
April 17, 2000
<b> SEARS REPORTS RECORD FIRST QUARTER EARNINGS
Strength in Retail and Credit Drive 71 Percent EPS Increase
</b> HOFFMAN ESTATES, Ill. -- Sears, Roebuck and Co. (NYSE: S) reported first-quarter 2000
net income of $235 million, or $0.65 per share, compared with reported 1999 first-quarter net
income of $146 million, or $0.38 per share, an increase of 71 percent.
The increase in earnings per share was a result of the strength of Sears retail and
credit businesses coupled with the company's share repurchase program. In retail, higher sales
and improved gross margins resulted in significant operating income growth over the first
quarter of the prior year. The increase in credit income came primarily from a lower
provision for uncollectible accounts and reductions in selling and administrative expense.
"Our two primary businesses, retail and credit, contributed very strong growth in
operating income while our robust cash flow allowed us to repurchase over 17 million outstanding
shares of Sears stock, further enhancing earnings per share growth," said Chairman and Chief
Executive Officer Arthur C. Martinez. "Increased sales volume along with a solid margin rate
drove the retail operating improvement, while the credit business continued to improve portfolio
quality and reduce operating costs."
<b><u>Revenues
</u></b> Revenues for the first quarter of 2000 were $8.97 billion, compared with $8.66 billion
for the same period a year ago. The revenue increase was primarily due to improvement in the
full-line stores and Sears Canada, partially offset by the loss of revenues from the Homelife
divestiture.
<b>SEARS/ ADD ONE
</b> "In the first quarter, sales increases in appliances, lawn and garden, and sporting goods
were strong, contributing to a 2.7 percent rise in domestic comparable store sales. <b> </b>The Great
Indoors and Sears dealer stores also enjoyed very strong performance for the quarter," said
Martinez. "In softgoods, homeware, fine jewelry and cosmetics and fragrances were strong,
but were offset by women's, men's, and children's apparel results which were impacted by the
Easter holiday shift." Martinez added that the company's on-line initiatives continue to grow.
In early April, Sears began selling lawn and garden tools on sears.com, which already offers
the largest online appliance store, the largest parts site for consumers and an expanded tool
site, Tool Territory.
Sears Canada revenue increased 19 percent, to $966 million in the first quarter of 2000.
First-quarter domestic credit revenues increased 0.8 percent from a year ago, to $1.07 billion.
Revenues in the services segment, which include Sears Home Services and Sears Direct Response
businesses, were $623 million in the quarter, a decrease of 3.7 percent from a year ago<i>.
</i> All revenue amounts reflect the application of SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin 101
(SAB 101), which affected the classification of revenue and related costs of licensed
businesses. However, there was no effect on operating income related to the implementation
of SAB 101.
<b><u>Gross margin and selling and administrative costs
</u></b> Consolidated gross margin as a percent of merchandise sales and services was 25
percent in the first quarter of 2000 compared with 24.8 percent in the comparable 1999 period.
The increase in gross margin reflects solid improvement in retail margin partially offset by
a lower margin rate in the services business. Retail gross margin in the first quarter
benefited from the more aggressive clearance program implemented during the fourth quarter of
1999.
Selling and administrative expense as a percentage of total revenues was 21.8 percent in
the first quarter of 2000 compared to 22.2 in the prior year period. The improvement reflects
substantial reductions in operating and legal costs in Sears credit business, partially offset
by increased spending on on-line initiatives.
<b>SEARS/ADD TWO
<u>Provision for uncollectible accounts
</u></b> In the first quarter of 2000, the consolidated provision for uncollectible accounts
was $245 million, a 16 percent decrease from $291 million in the first quarter of 1999. The
decrease in the provision is a result of improvement in portfolio quality as well as a decrease
in the level of average owned credit card receivable balances compared to the prior year first
quarter. The improved portfolio quality reflects the company's significant investments in its
risk management and collection activities. The domestic allowance for doubtful accounts
remained at $725 million, consistent with the year-end 1999 level.
Sears, Roebuck and Co. is a leading U.S. retailer of apparel, home and automotive
products and services, with annual revenue of more than $41 billion. The company serves
families across the country through approximately 860 full-line department stores, more than
2,100 specialized retail locations, and a variety of online offerings accessible through the
company's Web site, http://www.sears.com . Sears, Roebuck and Co. owns a majority stake in
Sears Canada.
