ATLANTA, Feb 29, 2012 (BUSINESS WIRE) --Carter's, Inc. (NYSE:CRI), the largest branded marketer in the United States of apparel exclusively for babies and young children, today reported its fourth quarter and fiscal 2011 results.
"In the fourth quarter, we achieved sales growth in every segment of our business, which reflects the strength of our brands and compelling value they provide to consumers," said Michael D. Casey, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. "For the year, we achieved a record level of sales by extending the reach of our brands in the United States and international markets. Earnings continue to be impacted by abnormally high cotton prices. We expect to see the benefit of lower cotton prices in the second half of 2012, and we are forecasting good growth in sales and profitability this year."
Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2011 compared to Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2010
Consolidated net sales increased $111.4 million, or 22.5%, to $606.6 million. Net domestic sales of the Company's Carter's brands increased $54.5 million, or 14.1%, to $442.4 million. Net domestic sales of the Company's OshKosh B'gosh brand increased $10.6 million, or 10.6%, to $110.0 million. Net international sales, which are comprised of sales of Carter's and OshKosh B'gosh branded products to wholesale customers outside the United States and Canadian retail store sales, increased $46.3 million to $54.3 million.
The Company's pre-tax income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 includes expenses related to the acquisition of Bonnie Togs, a Canadian children's apparel retailer, of approximately $3.0 million.
Operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $55.0 million, a decrease of $3.7 million, or 6.4%, from $58.8 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted operating income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 was $58.0 million, a decrease of $0.8 million, or 1.3%, from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. The decrease primarily reflects the net effect of higher product costs.
Net income decreased $0.1 million, or 0.3%, to $34.8 million, or $0.59 per diluted share, compared to $34.9 million, or $0.60 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted net income in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011 increased $2.5 million, or 6.8%, to $37.3 million, or $0.63 per diluted share from the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
A reconciliation of income as reported under accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP") to adjusted income is provided at the end of this release.
Business Segment Results
In light of the acquisition of Bonnie Togs in June 2011, the Company realigned certain of its reportable segments. Effective October 1, 2011, the Carter's and OshKosh wholesale segments reflect domestic business activities formerly reported in these brands' wholesale and mass channel segments. In addition, the Company added a new international segment, which includes its Canadian retail business, international wholesale sales, and international royalty income. Prior-year amounts have been recast to conform to the current year presentation.
Carter's Segments
Carter's retail segment sales increased $42.6 million, or 26.1%, to $206.3 million, driven by incremental sales of $19.3 million generated by new store openings and $13.0 million generated by eCommerce sales, and a comparable store sales increase of $11.0 million, or 7.2%, which were partially offset by the effect of store closings of $0.7 million. In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company opened nine Carter's retail stores and closed one. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the Company operated 359 Carter's retail stores.
Carter's wholesale segment sales increased $11.9 million, or 5.3%, to $236.1 million reflecting strong demand for the Company's Carter's, Just One You, and Child of Mine brands.
OshKosh B'gosh Segments

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2011, the Company closed six OshKosh retail stores. As of the end of the fourth quarter, the Company operated 170 OshKosh retail stores.
OshKosh wholesale segment sales increased $1.1 million, or 5.6%, to $20.6 million.

The decrease primarily reflects the net effect of higher product costs.
Net income decreased $32.5 million, or 22.2%, to $114.0 million, or $1.94 per diluted share, compared to $146.5 million, or $2.46 per diluted share, in fiscal 2010. Excluding the effect of the acquisition-related expenses noted above and detailed at the end of this release, adjusted net income in fiscal 2011 decreased $23.2 million, or 15.9%, to $123.2 million, or $2.09 per diluted share from fiscal 2010.
A reconciliation of income as reported under GAAP to income adjusted for expenses related to the Company's acquisition of the Bonnie Togs business is provided at the end of this release.
Cash flow from operations in fiscal 2011 was $81.1 million compared to $85.8 million in fiscal 2010, reflecting decreased earnings in fiscal 2011, partially offset by lower net working capital requirements.
Carter's Segments
Carter's retail segment sales increased $125.4 million, or 22.9%, to $671.6 million, driven by incremental sales of $57.0 million generated by new store openings and $40.8 million generated by eCommerce sales, and a comparable store sales increase of $29.1 million, or 5.6%, which were partially offset by the effect of store closings of $1.5 million.

International segment sales increased $101.4 million to $136.2 million, reflecting the acquisition of Bonnie Togs in fiscal 2011 and higher wholesale sales.
2012 Business Outlook
The Company anticipates that product costs for its Spring 2012 merchandise assortments will increase approximately 15% compared to its Spring 2011 assortments, due to continued elevated cotton, labor, and other product-related costs. Product costs for the Company's Fall 2012 merchandise assortment are expected to decline approximately 10% compared to its Fall 2011 assortments, principally due to lower cotton costs.
For fiscal 2012, the Company projects net sales will increase approximately 8% to 10% over fiscal 2011. The Company expects adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding approximately $5 million to $7 million in charges related to the Bonnie Togs acquisition or other unusual items, to be approximately $2.40 to $2.50 compared to $2.09 in fiscal 2011.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company expects net sales to increase approximately 11% to 13% over the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The Company expects adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding approximately $1 million to $2 million in charges related to the Bonnie Togs acquisition or other unusual items, to be approximately $0.38 to $0.43, compared to $0.56 in the first quarter of fiscal 2011.

Such statements are based on current expectations only, and are subject to certain risks, uncertainties, and assumptions. Should one or more of these risks or uncertainties materialize, or should underlying assumptions prove incorrect, actual results may vary materially from those anticipated, estimated, or projected. Factors that could cause actual results to materially differ include: the acceptance of the Company's products in the marketplace; changes in consumer preference and fashion trends; seasonal fluctuations in the children's apparel business; negative publicity; the breach of the Company's consumer databases; increased production costs; deflationary pricing pressures and customer acceptance of higher selling prices; a continued decrease in the overall level of consumer spending; the Company's dependence on its foreign supply sources; failure of its foreign supply sources to meet the Company's quality standards or regulatory requirements; the impact of governmental regulations and environmental risks applicable to the Company's business; disruption to our eCommerce business; the loss of a product sourcing agent; increased competition in the baby and young children's apparel market; the ability of the Company to identify new retail store locations, and negotiate appropriate lease terms for the retail stores; the ability of the Company to adequately forecast demand, which could create significant levels of excess inventory; failure to successfully integrate Bonnie Togs into our existing business and realize growth opportunities and other benefits from the acquisition; failure to achieve sales growth plans, cost savings, and other assumptions that support the carrying value of the Company's intangible assets; and the ability to attract and retain key individuals within the organization.
