RICHMOND, Va.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--
CarMax, Inc. (NYSE:KMX) today reported results for the fourth quarter
and fiscal year ended February 29, 2016.
-
Net sales and operating revenues increased 5.5% to $3.71 billion in
the fourth quarter. For the fiscal year, net sales and operating
revenues increased 6.2% to $15.15 billion.
-
Used unit sales in comparable stores increased 0.7% in the fourth
quarter and 2.4% in the fiscal year.
-
Total used unit sales rose 4.0% in the fourth quarter and 6.5% in the
fiscal year.
-
Our data indicates that in our markets, we increased our share of the
0-10 year old used car market by approximately 1% in calendar year
2015.
-
Total wholesale unit sales increased 2.3% in the fourth quarter and
4.9% in the fiscal year.
-
CarMax Auto Finance (CAF) income increased 2.2% to $92.3 million in
the fourth quarter. For the fiscal year, CAF income rose 6.7% to
$392.0 million.
-
In the fourth quarter, net earnings declined 1.5% to $141.0 million,
while net earnings per diluted share rose 6.0% to $0.71. Net earnings
for this year’s fourth quarter was reduced by $5.2 million, net of
tax, or $0.03 per diluted share, for an impairment-related charge
associated with a property that we no longer plan to use.
Year-over-year comparisons were affected by (i) a previously reported
adjustment to capitalized interest expense recorded in the prior
year’s quarter, which increased earnings by $4.2 million, net of tax,
or $0.02 per diluted share and (ii) the impairment-related charge
recorded in the current year’s quarter.
-
For the fiscal year, net earnings increased 4.4% to $623.4 million and
net earnings per diluted share rose 11.0% to $3.03. Year-over-year
comparisons were affected by a previously announced receipt of
proceeds in a class action lawsuit in the second quarter of the prior
fiscal year, which increased earnings by $12.9 million, net of tax, or
$0.06 per diluted share.
“While we faced a somewhat more challenging sales environment in the
second half of the year, we delivered solid revenue and EPS growth in
both the fourth quarter and the fiscal year, we opened a record number
of stores and we made progress toward optimizing our capital structure
by buying back 16.3 million shares in fiscal 2016,” said Tom Folliard,
chief executive officer.
Fourth Quarter Business Performance Review
Sales. Total used vehicle unit sales
grew 4.0% and comparable store used unit sales rose 0.7% versus the
prior year’s fourth quarter. The comparable store used unit sales
performance was driven by improved conversion and the solid execution of
our store teams.
Wholesale vehicle unit sales grew 2.3% versus the fourth quarter of
fiscal 2015, driven by the growth in our store base.
Other sales and revenues declined 8.5% year-over-year primarily
reflecting our disposal of new car franchises earlier in the fiscal
year. Starting this quarter, new car sales are included as a component
of other sales and revenues. Extended protection plan (EPP) revenues
increased 4.5%, largely reflecting the growth in our used unit sales.
Net third-party finance fees improved by 12.0% primarily due to shifts
in the mix among finance providers. Vehicles financed by the Tier 3
providers (those providers to whom we pay a fee) and those included in
the CAF Tier 3 loan origination program represented 15.1% of retail unit
sales in the current quarter versus 17.0% in the prior year’s fourth
quarter.
Gross Profit. Total gross profit
increased 2.8% versus last year’s fourth quarter, to $489.3 million.
Used vehicle gross profit rose 2.1%, driven by the 4.0% increase in
total used unit sales. Used vehicle gross profit per unit declined to
$2,109 compared with $2,148 in the corresponding prior year period.
Wholesale vehicle gross profit declined 0.7% versus the prior year’s
quarter, as the 2.3% increase in wholesale vehicle unit sales was offset
by a decrease in wholesale vehicle gross profit per unit to $1,005 from
$1,036. Other gross profit rose 11.9%, primarily reflecting the
improvements in EPP revenues and net third-party finance fees.
SG&A.(1)
Compared with the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015, SG&A expenses increased
1.2% to $333.9 million. The growth primarily reflected the 10% increase
in our store base since the beginning of last year’s fourth quarter
(representing the addition of 15 stores), largely offset by a
$14.2 million decrease in share-based compensation expense. Advertising
expense was flat versus the prior year quarter, primarily reflecting a
shift in timing of expenditures to earlier quarters of fiscal 2016. SG&A
per used unit was $2,151 in the current quarter, down $60
year-over-year. The decrease in share-based compensation expense reduced
SG&A per used unit by $97.
CarMax Auto Finance.(2)
Compared with last year’s fourth quarter, CAF income rose 2.2% to
$92.3 million, driven by an increase in average managed receivables,
which was largely offset by a lower total interest margin percentage and
an increase in the provision for loan losses. Average managed
receivables grew 13.9% to $9.45 billion. The total interest margin,
which reflects the spread between interest and fees charged to consumers
and our funding costs, declined to 5.9% of average managed receivables
from 6.3% in last year’s fourth quarter. The increase in the provision
for loan losses reflects the growth in our managed receivables and
favorable loss experience in last year’s fourth quarter, which reduced
the prior year provision. The allowance for loan losses as a percentage
of ending managed receivables remained similar at 0.99% as of February
29, 2016 compared with 0.97% as of February 28, 2015.
|
|
|
|
|
|
(1)
|
|
|
Starting this quarter, SG&A per unit calculations are based on
used units; previously they were based on retail units.
|
|
(2)
|
|
|
Although CAF benefits from certain indirect overhead
expenditures, we have not allocated indirect costs to CAF to avoid
making subjective allocation decisions.
|
|
|
|
|
|
In January 2014, CAF launched a test originating loans for customers who
typically would be financed by our Tier 3 finance providers. As of
February 29, 2016, a total of $96.5 million in receivables were
outstanding related to this program. We plan to continue to originate
loans in the Tier 3 space at a share of Tier 3 originations similar to
that during the past two years.
Interest Expense. Interest expense
rose to $11.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2016 from
$2.2 million in the prior year’s quarter. During the prior year’s
quarter, interest expense was reduced by $6.9 million, before tax,
representing capitalized interest related to earlier quarters of fiscal
2015. Excluding this adjustment, the year-over-year increase in interest
expense primarily reflected our higher average outstanding debt in the
current fiscal year.
Other Expense. During the
current year’s fourth quarter, we recorded an impairment-related charge
of $8.3 million, before tax, associated with a property that we no
longer plan to use.
Store Openings. During the fourth
quarter, we opened five stores, including three stores in new markets
(two in Boston and one in Peoria/Bloomington) and two in existing
markets (our sixth store in Atlanta and our third store in St. Louis).
In total, we opened 14 stores and relocated 1 store during fiscal 2016,
bringing our used car store count to 158 as of February 29, 2016.
Share Repurchase Activity. During
the fourth quarter, we repurchased 3.0 million shares of common stock
for $155.8 million pursuant to our share repurchase program. For the
fiscal year, we repurchased 16.3 million shares at a cost of $971.2
million. As of February 29, 2016, we had $1.40 billion remaining
available for repurchase under the program.
Fiscal 2017 Capital Spending Plan
We currently plan to open between 13 and 16 stores in each of the next
two fiscal years. In fiscal 2017, we plan to open 15 stores. We
currently estimate capital expenditures will total approximately $450
million in fiscal 2017. Compared with fiscal 2016, the increase in
planned capital spending primarily reflects the timing of land
acquisitions and construction activity.
