Note A— Description of Business and Basis of Presentation

 

Delta Apparel, Inc. (collectively with DTG2Go, LLC, Salt Life, LLC, M.J. Soffe, LLC, and other subsidiaries, "Delta Apparel," "we," "us," "our," or the "Company") is a vertically-integrated, international apparel company. With approximately 8,700 employees worldwide, we design, manufacture, source, and market a diverse portfolio of core activewear and lifestyle apparel products under our primary brands of Salt Life®, Soffe®, and Delta. We are a market leader in the on-demand, digital print and fulfillment industry, bringing DTG2Go's proprietary technology and innovation to the supply chain of our customers. We specialize in selling casual and athletic products through a variety of distribution channels and tiers, including outdoor and sporting goods retailers, independent and specialty stores, better department stores and mid-tier retailers, mass merchants and e-retailers, the U.S. military, and through our business-to-business digital platform. Our products are also made available direct-to-consumer on our ecommerce sites and in our branded retail stores. Our diversified distribution model allows us to capitalize on our strengths to provide our activewear and lifestyle apparel products to a broad and evolving customer base whose shopping preferences may span multiple retail channels. 

 

We design and internally manufacture the majority of our products. More than 90% of the apparel units that we sell are sewn in our owned or leased facilities. This allows us to offer a high degree of consistency and quality, leverage scale efficiencies, and react quickly to changes in trends within the marketplace. We have manufacturing operations located in the United States, El Salvador, Honduras, and Mexico, and we use domestic and foreign contractors as additional sources of production. Our distribution facilities are strategically located throughout the United States to better serve our customers with same-day shipping on our catalog products and weekly replenishments to retailers.  We were incorporated in Georgia in 1999, and our headquarters is located in Duluth, Georgia. Our common stock trades on the NYSE American under the symbol “DLA."

 

We operate on a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to September 30.  Our 2022 fiscal year is a 52-week year and will end on October 1, 2022 ("fiscal 2022"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our first quarter of fiscal 2022. Our 2021 fiscal year was a 52-week year and ended on October 2, 2021 ("fiscal 2021").

 

For presentation purposes herein, all references to period ended relate to the following fiscal years and dates:

We prepared the accompanying interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in accordance with the instructions for Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("U.S. GAAP") for complete financial statements. We believe these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include all normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation. Operating results for the three-month period ended December 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for our fiscal 2022. Although our various product lines are sold on a year-round basis, the demand for specific products or styles reflects some seasonality, with sales in our June quarter generally being the highest and sales in our December quarter generally being the lowest. These Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and footnotes included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal 2021, filed with the United States Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”).

 

Our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include the accounts of Delta Apparel and its wholly-owned and majority-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. We apply the equity method of accounting for our investment in 31% of the outstanding capital stock of a Honduran company. During the three-months ended December 2021 and December 2020, we received dividends from the investment of $0.6 million and $0.3 million, respectively. Our Ceiba Textiles manufacturing facility is leased under an operating lease arrangement, with this Honduran company. During the three-months ended December 2021, we paid approximately $0.4 million under this arrangement. Payments of approximately $0.8 million were made during the three-months ended December 2020 which included payment of rent deferrals related to the June 2020 quarter as a result of the COVID pandemic.

 

We make available copies of materials we file with, or furnish to, the SEC free of charge at https://ir.deltaapparelinc.com. The information found on our website is not part of this, or any other, report that we file with, or furnish to, the SEC. In addition, we will provide upon request, at no cost, paper or electronic copies of our reports and other filings made with the SEC. Requests should be directed to: Investor Relations Department, Delta Apparel, Inc., 2750 Premiere Parkway, Suite 100, Duluth, Georgia 30097. Requests can also be made by telephone to 864-232-5200, or via email at investor.relations@deltaapparel.com.

 

 

 

Note B—Accounting Policies

 

Our accounting policies are consistent with those described in our Significant Accounting Policies in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for our fiscal 2021, filed with the SEC. See Note C for consideration of recently issued accounting standards.

 

 

 

 

Note C—New Accounting Standards

 

Recently Adopted Standards

 

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU No. 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (“ASU 2019-12”), which simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminates certain exceptions within Accounting Standards Codification ("ASC") 740, Income Taxes, and clarifies certain aspects of the current guidance to promote consistency among reporting entities. ASU 2019-12 is effective as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2022. Most amendments within the standard are required to be applied on a prospective basis, while certain amendments must be applied on a retrospective or modified retrospective basis. The impact of the adoption of provision of ASU 2019-12 did not have a material impact to our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and disclosures.

 

Standards Not Yet Adopted

 

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments (“ASU 2016-13”), which requires an entity to assess impairment of its financial instruments based on the entity's estimate of expected credit losses. Since the issuance of ASU 2016-13, the FASB released several amendments to improve and clarify the implementation guidance. These standards have been collectively codified within ASC Topic 326, Credit Losses (“ASC 326”). As a smaller reporting company as defined by the SEC, the provisions of ASC 326 are effective as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2024. We are currently evaluating the impacts of the provisions of ASC 326 on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and disclosures.

 

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848) Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease potential accounting and financial reporting impacts of reference rate reform, including the expected transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This new guidance includes temporary optional practical expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met.  These transactions include contract modifications, hedging relationships and the sale or transfer of debt securities classified as held-to-maturity.  Entities may apply the provisions of the new standard at the beginning of the reporting period when the election is made. This guidance may be applied through December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of this standard on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures and has yet to elect an adoption date.

Note F—Debt

 

Credit Facility

 

On May 10, 2016, we entered into a Fifth Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as further amended, the “Amended Credit Agreement”) with Wells Fargo Bank, National Association (“Wells Fargo”), as Administrative Agent, the Sole Lead Arranger and the Sole Book Runner, and the financial institutions named therein as Lenders, which are Wells Fargo, PNC Bank, and Regions Bank. Our subsidiaries M.J. Soffe, LLC, Culver City Clothing Company, Salt Life, LLC, and DTG2Go, LLC (collectively, the "Borrowers"), are co-borrowers under the Amended Credit Agreement. The Borrowers entered into amendments to the Amended Credit Agreement with Wells Fargo and the other lenders on November 27, 2017, March 9, 2018, October 8, 2018, November 19, 2019, April 27, 2020, and August 28, 2020.

 

The Amended Credit Agreement allows us to borrow up to $170 million (subject to borrowing base limitations), including a maximum of $25 million in letters of credit. Provided that no event of default exists, we have the option to increase the maximum credit to $200 million (subject to borrowing base limitations), conditioned upon the Administrative Agent's ability to secure additional commitments and customary closing conditions. The Amended Credit Agreement contains a subjective acceleration clause and a “springing” lockbox arrangement (as defined in ASC 470, Debt ("ASC 470")) whereby remittances from customers will be forwarded to our general bank account and will not reduce the outstanding debt until and unless a specified event or an event of default occurs. We classify borrowings under the Amended Credit Agreement as long-term debt with consideration of current maturities.

 

As of December 2021, we had $116.0 million outstanding under our U.S. revolving credit facility at an average interest rate of 3.2%. Our cash on hand combined with the availability under the U.S. credit facility totaled $33.0 million. At  December 2021 and September 2021 there was $18.6 million and $19.0 million, respectively, of retained earnings free of restrictions to make cash dividends or stock repurchases.

 

Promissory Note

 

On October 8, 2018, we acquired substantially all of the assets of Silk Screen Ink, Ltd. d/b/a SSI Digital Print Services. In conjunction with the acquisition, we issued a promissory note in the principal amount of $7.0 million. The promissory note bears interest at 6% with quarterly installments which began January 2, 2019, with the final installment due October 1, 2021. The final payment, in accordance with the promissory note agreement, was made during the three-months ended December 2021. 

 

Honduran Debt

 

Since March 2011, we have entered into term loans and a revolving credit facility with Banco Ficohsa, a Honduran bank, to finance both the operations and capital expansion of our Honduran facilities. In December 2020, we entered into a new term loan and revolving credit facility with Banco Ficohsa, both with five-year terms, and simultaneously settled the prior term loans and revolving credit facility with outstanding balances at the time of settlement of $1.1 million and $9.5 million, respectively. Each of these new loans is secured by a first-priority lien on the assets of our Honduran operations and is not guaranteed by our U.S. entities. These loans are denominated in U.S. dollars, and the carrying value of the debt approximates its fair value. As the revolving credit facility permits us to re-borrow funds up to the amount repaid, subject to certain objective covenants, and we intend to re-borrow funds, subject to those covenants, the amounts have been classified as long-term debt. Additional information about these loans and the outstanding balances as of  December 2021 is as follows (in thousands):

Revolving credit facility established December 2020, interest at 7.25%, due August 2025

Note G—Selling, General and Administrative Expense

 

We include in selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses the costs incurred subsequent to the receipt of finished goods at our distribution facilities, such as the cost of stocking, warehousing, picking, packing, and shipping goods for delivery to our customers. Distribution costs included in SG&A expenses totaled $5.5 million and $5.2 million for the December 2021 and 2020 quarters, respectively. In addition, SG&A expenses include costs related to sales associates, administrative personnel, advertising and marketing expenses and other general and administrative expenses.

 

 

 

Note H—Stock-Based Compensation

 

On February 6, 2020, our shareholders approved the Delta Apparel, Inc. 2020 Stock Plan ("2020 Stock Plan") to replace the 2010 Stock Plan, which was previously re-approved by our shareholders on February 4, 2015 and was scheduled to expire by its terms on September 14, 2020. The 2020 Stock Plan is substantially similar in both form and substance to the 2010 Stock Plan. The purpose of the 2020 Stock Plan is to continue to give our Board of Directors and its Compensation Committee the ability to offer a variety of compensatory awards designed to enhance the Company’s long-term success by encouraging stock ownership among its executives, key employees and directors. Under the 2020 Stock Plan, the Compensation Committee of our Board of Directors has the authority to determine the employees and directors to whom awards may be granted, and the size and type of each award and manner in which such awards will vest. The awards available under the plan consist of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units, performance stock, stock performance units, and other stock and cash awards. Unvested awards, while employed by the Company or servings as a director, become fully vested under certain circumstances as defined in the 2020 Stock Plan. Such circumstances include, but are not limited to, the participant’s death or becoming disabled. The Compensation Committee is authorized to establish the terms and conditions of awards granted under the 2020 Stock Plan, to establish, amend and rescind any rules and regulations relating to the 2020 Stock Plan, and to make any other determinations that it deems necessary. Similar to the 2010 Stock Plan, the 2020 Stock Plan limits the number of shares that may be covered by awards to any participant in a given calendar year and also limits the aggregate awards of restricted stock, restricted stock units and performance stock granted in a given calendar year. Shares are generally issued from treasury stock upon the vesting of the restricted stock units, performance units or other awards under the 2020 Stock Plan.

 

Compensation expense is recorded within SG&A in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations over the vesting periods. During the December 2021 and 2020 quarters, we recognized $0.4 million and $0.9 million in stock-based compensation expense, respectively. Associated with the compensation cost are income tax benefits recognized of $0.1 million and $0.3 million for each of the three-month periods ended December 2021 and December 2020, respectively. 

 

During the December 2021 quarter, performance stock units and restricted stock units representing 47,700 and 95,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, vested with the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021, and were issued in accordance with their respective agreements. Of these vested awards, 96,350 were payable in common stock and 46,350 were payable in cash.

 

During the December 2021 quarter, restrictive stock units representing 5,000 shares of our common stock were granted and are eligible to vest upon the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2022 and are payable in common stock.

 

During the December 2021 quarter, performance stock units and restrictive stock units representing 59,625 and 59,625 shares of our common stock, respectively, were granted and are eligible to vest upon the filing of our Annual Report for fiscal 2023. Of these shares, 64,625 are payable in common stock and 54,625 are payable in cash.

 

During the December 2021 quarter, restrictive stock units representing 13,000 shares of our common stock were granted and are eligible to vest upon the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2024 and are payable in common stock.

 

As of December 2021, there was $4.2 million of total unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested awards granted under the 2020 Stock Plan. This cost is expected to be recognized over a period of 2.9 years.

Note J—Business Segments

 

Our operations are managed and reported in two segments, Delta Group and Salt Life Group, which reflect the manner in which the business is managed and results are reviewed by the Chief Executive Officer, who is our chief operating decision maker. 

 

The Delta Group is comprised of our business units primarily focused on core activewear styles, and includes our DTG2Go and Delta Activewear business units. We are a market leader in the on-demand, direct-to-garment digital print and fulfillment industry, bringing technology and innovation to the supply chain of our many customers.  We use highly-automated factory processes and our proprietary software to deliver on-demand, digitally printed apparel direct to consumers on behalf of our customers. Our Activewear business is organized around key customer channels and how they source their various apparel needs. Delta Activewear is a preferred supplier of activewear apparel to regional and global brands, direct to retail and through wholesale markets. We offer a broad portfolio of apparel and accessories under the Delta, Delta Platinum, Soffe, and sourced-branded products that we distribute utilizing our network of fulfillment centers. Delta Direct services key channels, such as the screen print, promotional, and eRetailer channels as well as the retail licensing channel, whose customers sell through to many mid-tier and mass market retailers.  In our Global Brands & Retail Direct business we serve our customers as their supply chain partner, from product development to shipment of their branded products, with the majority of products being sold with value-added services including embellishment, hangtags, and ticketing. We also serve retailers by providing our portfolio of products directly to their retail stores and through their ecommerce channels.  We sell our products to a diversified audience, including sporting goods and outdoor retailers, specialty and resort shops, farm and fleet stores, department stores, and mid-tier retailers. We also service custom apparel to major branded sportswear companies, trendy regional brands, and all branches of the United States armed forces. We also offer our Soffe products direct to consumers at www.soffe.com.

 

The Salt Life Group is comprised of our lifestyle brands focused on a broad range of apparel garments, headwear and related accessories to meet consumer preferences and fashion trends, and includes our Salt Life business unit. These products are sold through specialty and boutique shops, traditional department stores, and outdoor retailers, as well as direct-to-consumer through branded ecommerce sites and branded retail stores. Products in this segment are marketed under our lifestyle brands of Salt Life® as well as other labels.

Our Chief Operating Decision Maker and management evaluate performance and allocate resources based on profit or loss from operations before interest, income taxes and special charges ("segment operating earnings"). Our segment operating earnings  may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies. The accounting policies of our reportable segments are the same as those described in Note 2 in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021, filed with the SEC. Intercompany transfers between operating segments are transacted at cost and have been eliminated within the segment amounts shown in the following table (in thousands).

Note K—Income Taxes

 

The Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (the “New Tax Legislation”) was enacted on December 22, 2017, which significantly revised the U.S. corporate income tax code by, among other things, lowering federal corporate income tax rates, implementing a modified territorial tax system and imposing a repatriation tax ("transition tax") on deemed repatriated cumulative earnings of foreign subsidiaries which will be paid over eight years. In addition, new taxes were imposed related to foreign income, including a tax on global intangible low-taxed income (“GILTI”) as well as a limitation on the deduction for business interest expense (“Section 163(j)"). GILTI is the excess of the shareholder’s net controlled foreign corporations ("CFC") net tested income over the net deemed tangible income.  GILTI income is eligible for a deduction of up to 50% of the income inclusion, but the deduction is limited to the amount of U.S. adjusted taxable income.  The Section 163(j) limitation does not allow the amount of deductible interest to exceed the sum of the taxpayer's business interest income and 30% of the taxpayer’s adjusted taxable income. We have included in our calculation of our effective tax rate the estimated impact of GILTI and Section 163(j). We have elected to account for the tax on GILTI as a period cost and, therefore, do not record deferred taxes related to GILTI on our foreign subsidiaries.

 

Our effective income tax rate on operations for the three-months ended December 2021 was 15.1% compared to a rate of 39.3% in the same period of the prior year, and an effective rate of 21.9% for fiscal 2021. We generally benefit from having income in foreign jurisdictions that are either exempt from income taxes or have tax rates that are lower than those in the United States. As such, changes in the mix of U.S. taxable income compared to profits in tax-free or lower-tax jurisdictions can have a significant impact on our overall effective tax rate.

Note L—Derivatives and Fair Value Measurements

 

From time to time, we may use interest rate swaps or other instruments to manage our interest rate exposure and reduce the impact of future interest rate changes. These financial instruments are not used for trading or speculative purposes. We have designated our interest rate swap contracts as cash flow hedges of our future interest payments. As a result, the gains and losses on the swap contracts are reported as a component of other comprehensive income and are reclassified into interest expense as the related interest payments are made. As of  December 2021, all of our other comprehensive income was attributable to shareholders; none related to the non-controlling interest.  Outstanding instruments as of  December 2021 are as follows:

From time to time, we may purchase cotton option contracts to economically hedge the risk related to market fluctuations in the cost of cotton used in our operations. We do not receive hedge accounting treatment for these derivatives. As such, the realized and unrealized gains and losses associated with them are recorded within cost of goods sold on the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. No such cotton contracts were outstanding at  December 2021 and September 2021.

 

ASC 820, Fair Value Measurements and Disclosures (“ASC 820”), defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands disclosures about fair value measurements. Assets and liabilities measured at fair value are grouped in three levels. The levels prioritize the inputs used to measure the fair value of the assets or liabilities. These levels are:

 

 

Level 1 – Quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities.

     
 

Level 2 – Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for assets and liabilities, either directly or indirectly. These inputs include quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets and quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in markets that are less active.

     
 

Level 3 – Unobservable inputs that are supported by little or no market activity for assets or liabilities and includes certain pricing models, discounted cash flow methodologies and similar techniques.

 

The following financial liabilities are measured at fair value on a recurring basis (in thousands):

The fair value of the interest rate swap agreements was derived from a discounted cash flow analysis based on the terms of the contract and the forward interest rate curves adjusted for our credit risk, which fall in Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy. At  December 2021 and September 2021, book value for fixed rate debt approximates fair value based on quoted market prices for the same or similar issues or on the current rates offered to us for debt of the same remaining maturities (a Level 2 fair value measurement).

 

The DTG2Go acquisition purchase price consisted of additional payments contingent on the combined business’s achievement of certain performance targets related to sales and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("EBITDA") for the period from April 1, 2018, through September 29, 2018, as well as for our fiscal years 2019, 2020, 2021 and 2022. The valuation of the fair value of the contingent consideration is based upon inputs into the Monte Carlo model, including projected results, which then are discounted to present value to derive the fair value. The fair value of the contingent consideration is sensitive to changes in our projected results and discount rates.  As of December 2021, we estimate the fair value of contingent consideration to be $1.9 million, consistent with our estimate as of September 2021.

 

 

 

Note M—Legal Proceedings

 

At times we are party to various legal claims, actions and complaints. We believe that, as a result of legal defenses, insurance arrangements, and indemnification provisions with parties believed to be financially capable, such actions should not have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition, or liquidity.

Note N—Repurchase of Common Stock

 

As of September 28, 2019, our Board of Directors authorized management to use up to $60.0 million to repurchase stock in open market transactions under our Stock Repurchase Program.  During the December 2021 quarter, we purchased 74,232 shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $2.1 million. Through December 2021, we have purchased 3,673,165 shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $54.6 million under our Stock Repurchase Program since its inception. All purchases were made at the discretion of management and pursuant to the safe harbor provisions of SEC Rule 10b-18. As of December 2021, $5.4 million remained available for future purchases under our Stock Repurchase Program, which does not have an expiration date.

Goodwill represents the acquired goodwill net of the $0.6 million impairment losses recorded in fiscal year 2011. As of December 2021, the Delta Group segment assets include $18.0 million of goodwill, and the Salt Life segment assets include $19.9 million.

 

Depending on the type of intangible asset, amortization is recorded under cost of goods sold or selling, general and administrative expenses. Amortization expense for intangible assets for the three-months ended December 2021 and December 2020 was $0.6 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $1.6 million for the year ended September 2022, approximately $1.5 million for the year ended September 2023, and approximately $1.4 million for the years ended September 2024, 2025 and 2026.

 

On June 1, 2021, DTG2Go, LLC acquired specified net assets of Fan Print Inc., which primarily included its Autoscale.ai technology as well as immaterial net working capital. The costs to acquire the net assets were $8.0 million, of which $6.6 million was paid at closing through our existing U.S. credit facility and $1.4 million will be paid in three installments in our second, third, and fourth quarters of fiscal 2022. The acquisition qualified as an asset acquisition in accordance with ASU 2017-01, Clarifying the Definition of a Business, as substantially all of the fair value of the net assets acquired or $8.1 million were assigned to the technology intangible asset with an estimated economic life of 10 years. The acquisition cost also consists of additional payments contingent on the adjusted operating profits resulting from the Autoscale.ai technology for the period from June 1, 2021 through October 2, 2021, as well as for our fiscal years 2022 through 2026. These contingent earnout liabilities are recognized when the contingency is probable and reasonably estimable, which generally results in recognition, if earned, during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year and which would increase the value of the technology intangible asset.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

 

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

 

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of the Company. We may from time to time make written or oral statements that are “forward-looking,” including statements contained in this report and other filings with the SEC, in our press releases, and in other reports to our shareholders. All statements, other than statements of historical fact, which address activities, events or developments that we expect or anticipate will or may occur in the future are forward-looking statements. The words “plan”, “estimate”, “project”, “forecast”, “outlook”, “anticipate”, “expect”, “intend”, “remain”, “seek", “believe”, “may”, “should” and similar expressions, and discussions of strategy or intentions, are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

our ability to attract and retain key management;

 

the volatility and uncertainty of energy, fuel and related costs;

 

material disruptions in our information systems related to our business operations;

 

compromises of our data security;

 

significant changes in our effective tax rate;

 

significant litigation in either domestic or international jurisdictions;

 

recalls, claims and negative publicity associated with product liability issues;

 

the ability to protect our trademarks and other intellectual property;

 

changes in international trade regulations;

 

our ability to comply with trade regulations;

 

changes in employment laws or regulations or our relationship with employees;

 

negative publicity resulting from violations of manufacturing standards or labor laws or unethical business practices by our suppliers and independent contractors;

  the inability of suppliers or other third-parties, including those related to transportation, to fulfill the terms of their contracts with us;
 

restrictions on our ability to borrow capital or service our indebtedness;

 

interest rate fluctuations increasing our obligations under our variable rate indebtedness;

 

the ability to raise additional capital;

 

the impairment of acquired intangible assets;

 

foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations;

 

the illiquidity of our shares; and

 

price volatility in our shares and the general volatility of the stock market.

 

A detailed discussion of significant risk factors that have the potential to cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations is set forth in Part 1 under the subheading "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021, filed with the SEC. Any forward-looking statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q do not purport to be predictions of future events or circumstances and may not be realized. Further, any forward-looking statements are made only as of the date of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, and we do not undertake to publicly update or revise the forward-looking statements, except as required by the federal securities laws.

 

Business Outlook

 

We began fiscal 2022 a streamlined organization, with the Delta Group segment operating as a fully-integrated Activewear business, complemented by DTG2Go digital fulfillment solutions. Our Activewear business is organized around our key customer channels and how they source their diverse apparel needs.  Customers seeking our portfolio of Delta, Delta Platinum, Soffe, and sourced apparel products can purchase them directly from our Delta Direct business.  Delta Direct services key channels, including the screen print, promotional, and eRetailer channels together with the key retail licensing channel, whose customers sell through to many mid-tier and mass market retailers.    In our Global Brands & Retail Direct business, we are a supply chain partner to global brands, from product development of custom garments to shipment of their branded products, with the majority of products being sold with value-added services.  We also serve global retailers by providing our portfolio of Delta, Delta Platinum, and Soffe products directly to their retail stores and through their ecommerce channels. Our business is now organized including the Soffe business as part of Activewear, resulting in a more customer-centric sales and support team; a more proactive manufacturing, inventory planning, and distribution network; and a streamlined back-office support function. 

 

Our digital print business, DTG2Go, remains a competitive force in the digital print and fulfillment market.  We believe we are differentiated in this market, considering our vertically-integrated supply chain, broad geographic network for fulfillment and distribution, proprietary technology, and broad and diverse customer relationships. We continue to see the transition of additional retailers and brands, many of whom are current Delta Group customers, to an on-demand digital fulfillment model.  One of the strategic benefits of being a vertically-integrated apparel supplier is that customers are able chose Delta blanks for the garments digital printing.  This often creates a more efficient operation, reduces garment costs for our customers, and lowers working capital needs in the business.

Salt Life enthusiasts continue to actively engage with the authentic, aspirational lifestyle brand. Showing true omni-channel strength, sales grew over 25% compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2021 with double-digit growth for each of our wholesale, retail, and ecommerce channels. Direct-to-consumer sales now make up approximately one-third of total sales in the December 2021 quarter, continuing to progress toward our long-term goal of two-thirds direct-to-consumer contributions.  We plan to open an additional six to eight stores in fiscal 2022.  We continue to invest in this key sales channel and are looking to end the fiscal year with approximately 20 retail stores.  Salt Life enthusiasts also actively engaged with the brand through all our online channels. In particular, viewership of Salt Life content on YouTube continues to increase while we continue to increase the frequency of content publications on “The Daily Salt,” our online publication.

 

Results of Operations

 

Financial results included herein have been presented on a generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") basis and, in certain limited instances, we have presented our financial results on a GAAP and non-GAAP (adjusted) basis, which is further described in the sections entitled Non-GAAP Financial Measures.

 

Net sales were $110.7 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, an increase of 17% compared to the prior year first quarter net sales of $94.7 million.   

 

Net sales in the Delta Group segment grew 16% to $101.9 million compared to $87.6 million in the first fiscal quarter of the prior year.  Delta Direct and Global Brands & Retail Direct grew over 16% from the prior year first quarter.   DTG2Go sales grew by 17% over the prior year with new customer launches.

 

Salt Life segment net sales grew 24% from the first quarter of the prior year to $8.8 million. The sales growth is attributable to increased wholesale sales together with growth in the direct-to-consumer business with our branded retail stores.

 

Retail and total ecommerce sales represented 10% of total revenues for the both the December 2021 and 2020 quarters.

 

Gross margins were 20.8% for the first quarter of fiscal 2022, lower than the 21.4% in the prior year largely driven by inflationary costs pressure.

 

The Delta Group segment gross margins were 18.0% for the December quarter, a decline from the prior year December quarter margins of 19.1%.  Gross margins were negatively impacted by the higher product costs flowing through cost of sales, offset partially by increased selling prices.

 

The Salt Life Group segment gross margins improved to 53.3% compared to 50.2% in the prior year December quarter resulting from a favorable mix of sales, driven by the Salt Life branded retail store sales.

 

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $17.5 million, 15.8% of sales, compared to $16.0 million, 16.9% of sales, in the prior year first quarter.  The increase in SG&A compared to prior year first quarter was driven by higher variable selling costs. We benefited from leveraging fixed costs against higher sales in the first quarter as compared to the first quarter in the prior fiscal year.

Other income for the fiscal year 2022 and fiscal year 2021 December quarters includes profits related to our Honduran equity method investment. The first quarter of the prior year included $1.3 million of expenses related to the impact of two hurricanes that disrupted our Honduran manufacturing facilities in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. 

Operating profit in the first quarter for the fiscal year 2022 increased to $5.9 million, compared to the prior year first quarter profit of $3.1 million.

 

The Delta Group segment had operating income of $8.4 million, or 8.3% of net sales, compared to $6.3 million, or 7.2% of net sales, in the prior year first quarter. The increase in operating profit was driven by leveraging fixed costs against higher sales as well as continuing cost controls.

 

The Salt Life Group segment had operating income of $0.1 million, or 1.5% of net sales, compared to a loss of $0.1 million, or 1.4% of sales, in the prior year first quarter.  The improved operating profit was driven by a stronger direct-to-consumer sales mix.

 

Net interest expense was $1.6 million for first fiscal quarter of 2022 compared to $1.7 million in the prior year first fiscal quarter.

 

Our effective tax rate on operations for the three-month period ended December 2021 was 15.1%. This compares to an effective tax rate of 39.3% for the same period in the prior year and 21.9 % for the full fiscal year 2021. See Note K—Income taxes for more information. 

 

We achieved net earnings for the December 2021 quarter of $3.6 million, or $0.51 per diluted share, compared to $0.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, in the prior year first quarter.

 

Accounts receivable were $65.7 million at December 2021, compared to $67.7 million as of September 2021. Days sales outstanding ("DSO") as of December 2021 were 49 days compared to 47 days at September 2021.

 

Net inventory as of December 2021 was $183.1 million, an increase of $21.4 million from September 2021 and $34.6 million from December 2020. We have increased production during the past year and are now producing at record manufacturing levels. The temporary hurricane disruptions during the December 2020 quarter impacted the planned inventory build during the prior year first quarter. 

 

Total net debt, including capital lease financing and cash on hand, was $139.6 million at December 2021, an increase of $18.0 million from September 2021. Cash on hand and availability under our U.S. revolving credit facility totaled $33.0 million at December 2021, a $12.4 million decrease from September 2021 principally driven by investments in the business to support working capital needs.

 

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

 

We provide all information required in accordance with U.S. GAAP, but we believe that evaluating our ongoing operating results may be difficult if limited to reviewing only U.S. GAAP financial measures. In an effort to provide investors with additional information regarding our results, we also provide non-GAAP information that management believes is useful to investors. We discuss operating income, net income and earnings per diluted share performance measures that are, for comparison purposes, adjusted to eliminate items or results stemming from discrete events. We do this because management uses these measures in evaluating our underlying performance on a consistent basis across periods. We also believe these measures are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of our ongoing performance. These non-GAAP measures have imitations as analytical tools, and securities analysts, investors and other interested parties should not consider any of these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as a substitute for analysis or our results as reported under U.S. GAAP. These non-GAAP measures may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

 

Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

Operating Cash Flows

 

Operating activities used $13.2 million of cash for December 2021 quarter compared to $2.5 million in the prior year December quarter.   Net cash used in operating activities primarily increased as a result of higher inventory production in the current year.  This was partially offset by the increased operating income.

 

Investing Cash Flows

 

Cash used in investing activities was $2.5 million during the first quarter of fiscal year 2022 compared to cash provided by investing activities of $1.3 million for the same period in the prior year.  As of December 2021, there was $0.6 million in unpaid expenditures.  In the first quarter of fiscal 2021, we received proceeds of $2.3 million from finance lease arrangements related to prior year capital expenditure cash outflows.

 

We anticipate our fiscal 2022 capital expenditures, including those financed under capital leases, to be approximately $20 million and to be focused primarily on our distribution expansion, digital print equipment, manufacturing equipment, information technology, and direct-to-consumer investments, including additional Salt Life retail store openings.

 

Financing Activities

 

During the December 2021 quarter, cash provided by financing activities was $12.7 million which related primarily to advances from our long-term debt used to fund operations, working capital needs, and repurchases of our stock.

 

Future Liquidity and Capital Resources

 

See Note F – Debt to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for discussion of our various financing arrangements, including the terms of our revolving U.S. credit facility.

 

Our credit facility, as well as cash flows from operations, are intended to fund our day-to-day working capital needs, and along with capital lease financing arrangements, to fund our planned capital expenditures. However, any material deterioration in our results of operations,  may result in the loss of our ability to borrow under our U.S. revolving credit facility and to issue letters of credit to suppliers, or may cause the borrowing availability under that facility to be insufficient for our needs. Availability under our credit facility is primarily a function of the levels of our accounts receivable and inventory. A significant deterioration in our accounts receivable or inventory levels could restrict our ability to borrow additional funds or service our indebtedness. Additionally, a significant deterioration in our business results could cause our availability to fall below minimum thresholds, thereby requiring us to maintain the minimum FCCR specified in our credit agreement, which we may not be able to maintain. Moreover, our credit facility includes a financial covenant that if the availability under our credit facility falls below the amounts specified in our U.S. credit agreement, our fixed charge coverage ratio (FCCR) for the preceding 12-month period must not be less than 1.1 to 1.0. While our availability at December 2021 was above the minimum thresholds specified in our credit agreement, a significant deterioration in our business could cause our availability to fall below such thresholds, thereby requiring us to maintain the minimum FCCR specified in our credit agreement.

Share Repurchase Program

During the December 2021 quarter, we purchased 74,232 shares of our common stock for $2.1 million (see Note N—Repurchase of Common Stock). As of December 2021, there was $5.4 million of repurchase authorization remaining under our Stock Repurchase Program.

 

Critical Accounting Policies

 

Our discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of operations are based upon our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, which were prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The preparation of our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements requires us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting periods. We base our estimates and judgments on historical experience and various other factors that we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances, the results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions. The most significant estimates and assumptions relate to revenue recognition, accounts receivable and related reserves, inventory and related reserves, the carrying value of goodwill, and the accounting for income taxes.

 

A detailed discussion of critical accounting policies is contained in the Significant Accounting Policies included in Note 2 to the Audited Consolidated Financial Statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2021, and there have been no changes in those policies since the filing of that Annual Report on Form 10-K with the SEC, except as disclosed in Note C—New Accounting Standards related to the adoption of the cloud computing standard.

Environmental and Other Regulatory Matters

 

We are subject to various federal, state and local environmental laws and regulations concerning, among other things, wastewater discharges, storm water flows, air emissions and solid waste disposal. The labeling, distribution, importation, marketing, and sale of our products are subject to extensive regulation by various federal agencies, including the Federal Trade Commission, Consumer Product Safety Commission and state attorneys general in the United States. Our international operations are also subject to compliance with the U.S. Foreign Corrupt Practices Act (the “FCPA”) and other anti-bribery laws applicable to our operations.

 

The environmental and other regulations applicable to our business are becoming increasingly stringent, and we incur capital and other expenditures annually to achieve compliance with these environmental standards and regulations. We currently do not expect that the amount of expenditures required to comply with these environmental standards or other regulatory matters will have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition or liquidity. There can be no assurance, however, that future changes in federal, state, or local regulations, interpretations of existing regulations or the discovery of currently unknown problems or conditions will not require substantial additional expenditures. Similarly, while we believe that we are currently in compliance with all applicable environmental and other regulatory requirements, the extent of our liability, if any, for past failures to comply with laws, regulations and permits applicable to our operations cannot be determined and could have a material adverse effect on our operations, financial condition and liquidity.

 

 

Item 4.

Controls and Procedures

 

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

 

Disclosure controls and procedures are controls and other procedures that are designed to reasonably assure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s requirements. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information we are required to disclose in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

 

Our management, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of period covered by this quarterly report ("the Evaluation Date") and, based on their evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that these controls and procedures were effective as of the Evaluation Date.

 

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

 

There were no changes during the December 2021 quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
