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 8,200 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®, COAST®, 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 garments that we sell are sewn by our employees in either 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 Greenville, South Carolina. 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 2021 fiscal year is a 52-week year and will end on October 2, 2021 ("fiscal 2021"). Accordingly, this Form 10-Q presents our third quarter of fiscal 2021. Our 2020 fiscal year was a 53-week year and ended on October 3, 2020 ("fiscal 2020").

 

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 and nine-month periods ended June 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for our fiscal 2021. 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 2020, 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 nine-months ended June 2021 and June 2020, we received dividends from the investment of $0.9 million and $0.6 million, respectively. Our Ceiba Textiles manufacturing facility is leased under an operating lease arrangement, with this Honduran company. During the nine-months ended June 2021, we paid approximately $1.8 million under this arrangement, which included repayment of rent deferrals related to the June 2020 quarter. Payments of approximately $0.9 million were made during the nine-months ended June 2020.

 

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., 322 South Main Street, Greenville, South Carolina 29601. 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 2020, filed with the SEC. See Note C for consideration of recently issued accounting standards.

 

 

 

Note C—New Accounting Standards

 

Recently Adopted Standards

 

In August 2018, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2018-15, Customer's Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement that is a Service Contract (“ASU 2018-15”), which requires customers to apply internal-use software guidance to determine the implementation costs that are able to be capitalized. Capitalized implementation costs are required to be amortized over the term of the arrangement, beginning when the cloud computing arrangement is ready for its intended use. We adopted ASU 2018-15 prospectively as of the beginning of fiscal 2021, and the provisions did not have a material effect on our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, or disclosures.

 

Standards Not Yet Adopted

 

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. We believe the impacts of adopting the provisions of ASU 2019-12 will not be material to our financial condition, results of operations, cash flows, and disclosures.

 

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.

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 June 2021, we had $108.2 million outstanding under our U.S. revolving credit facility at an average interest rate of 3.4%. Our cash on hand combined with the availability under the U.S. credit facility totaled $43.4 million. At  June 2021 and September 2020 there was $15.5 million and $8.8 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. As of  June 2021, there was $1.2 million outstanding on the promissory note.

 

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  June 2021 is as follows (in thousands):

 

  

June 2021

 

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

 $667 

Term loan established December 2020, interest at 7.5%, quarterly installments beginning September 2021 through December 2025

  9,128 

 

 

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 $5.2 million and $3.5 million for the  June 2021 and 2020 quarters, respectively. Distribution costs included in SG&A expenses totaled $15.6 million and $13.2 million for the nine-months ended June 2021 and 2020, 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 June 2021 and 2020 quarters, we recognized $0.5 million and $0.7 million in stock-based compensation expense, respectively. Associated with the compensation cost are income tax benefits recognized of $0.1 million and $0.2 million for each of the three-month periods ended June 2021 and June 2020, respectively. During the nine-months ended June 2021 and June 2020, we recognized $2.0 million and $2.1 million, respectively, in stock-based compensation expense. Associated with the compensation cost are income tax benefits recognized of $0.5 million and $0.7 million for the nine-months periods ended June 2021 and June 2020, respectively. 

 

During the December 2020 quarter, performance stock units and restricted stock units representing 42,000 and 74,000 shares of our common stock, respectively, vested with the filing of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for fiscal 2020, and were issued in accordance with their respective agreements. All vested awards were paid in common stock.

 

As of June 2021, there was $2.1 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 1.4 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, digital print and fulfillment industry, bringing DTG2Go's proprietary technology and innovation to the supply chain of our customers. 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 range of apparel and accessories through our Delta Direct business under the Delta and Soffe brands, as well as other brands that we distribute utilizing our digital platform and network of fulfillment centers. In addition, our Global Brands & Retail Direct business serves 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, so that they are ready for retail sale to end consumers.

 

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 and Coast business units. These products are sold through specialty and boutique shops, outdoor retailers and traditional department stores, 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® and COAST®.

 

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 2020, 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).

(1) In fiscal 2021, the Delta Group operating earnings included $1.3 million of expense, reported within "Other loss (income), net", related to two catastrophic hurricanes that disrupted operations during the December 2020 quarter. For the three-months and nine-months ended June 2020, the Delta Group operating income (loss) included $23.1 million and $25.0 million, respectively, of expenses related to the COVID-19 pandemic. For the June 2020 quarter, these costs primarily related to the curtailment of manufacturing operations ($9.8 million), incremental costs to right size production to new forecasted demand ($2.6 million), increased accounts receivable and inventory reserves related to the heightened risks in the market as the U.S. continues its recovery ($6.6 million), and other expenses ($4.1 million). These costs are included within net sales ($0.5 million), cost of goods sold ($12.1 million), SG&A expenses ($2.4 million), and other loss (income), net ($8.1 million). The first nine months of fiscal 2020 includes an additional $1.9 million of costs related to the curtailment of manufacturing operations in cost of goods sold.

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.

 

The Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES Act”), which was enacted on March 27, 2020, provided temporary changes to income and non-income-based tax laws, including some provisions which were previously enacted under the New Tax Legislation. The CARES Act revised the U.S. corporate income tax code on a temporary basis by, among other things, eliminating the 80% of taxable income limitation on net operating loss (“NOL”) carryforwards, allowing NOL carrybacks, and increasing the Section 163(j) interest limitation deduction from 30% to 50% of adjusted taxable income. We have included the estimated impact of these provisions in our effective tax rate calculation.

 

Our effective income tax rate on operations for the nine-months ended June 2021 was 23.1% compared to a rate of 23.9% in the same period of the prior year, and an effective rate of 23.6% for fiscal 2020. 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  June 2021, all of our other comprehensive income was attributable to shareholders; none related to the non-controlling interest.  Outstanding instruments as of  June 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  June 2021 and September 2020.

 

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  June 2021 and September 2020, 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 June 2021, we estimate the fair value of contingent consideration to be $3.1 million, a $3.3 million decrease from September 2020 due to the $2.1 million payment made during the December 2020 quarter for the fiscal 2020 contingent consideration period and a $1.2 million change in estimated future earnout payments.

 

 

 

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.  No shares of our common stock were repurchased in the  June 2021 quarter. Through June 2021, we have purchased 3,598,933 shares of our common stock for an aggregate of $52.5 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 June 2021, $7.5 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 June 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 June 2021 and June 2020 was $0.5 million and $0.4 million, respectively. Amortization for the nine-months ended June 2021 and June 2020 was $1.2 million and $1.3 million, respectively. Amortization expense is estimated to be approximately $1.8 million for fiscal  2021, $2.0 million for fiscal 2022, $2.3 million for fiscal 2023, and $2.2 million for each of fiscal 2024 and 2025.

 

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.

Business Outlook

 

Our record-breaking June 2021 quarter results reflect the culmination of our multi-year strategic initiatives coming to realization. Our sales are back to pre-pandemic levels, with customer order demand exceeding historic levels. Profitability on current year sales is greatly expanded, driven by our margin-moving sales strategies, manufacturing efficiencies, and continued spending controls. This culminated in diluted earnings per share of $1.14 for the June quarter, a record for Delta Apparel, while also generating close to $10 million of operating cash flows.

 

We are entering fiscal 2022 a streamlined organization, with the Delta Group segment operating as a fully-integrated Activewear business, powered 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, formerly referred to as Delta Catalog.  Delta Direct services key channels, such as the screen print, promotional, and eRetailer channels as well as the key retail licensing channel, whose customers sell through to many mid-tier and mass market retailers and which drove strong sales in the June quarter.  Although we remain inventory constrained in the near term in this at-once business, we are working diligently to serve our customers’ needs and ultimately rebuild our inventory levels for future opportunities. 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. The strength of our Global Brands & Retail Direct business is demonstrated by the growth in sales compared to the same June quarter in pre-pandemic fiscal 2019.  This organizational structure, which includes the integration of our Soffe business into Activewear, has led to a more customer-centric sales and support team; a more proactive manufacturing, inventory planning, and distribution network; and a streamlined back-office support function. We continue to anticipate annual benefits from this integration initiative in the range of $0.12 to $0.15 per diluted share beginning in fiscal 2022.

 

Our digital print business, DTG2Go, remains a competitive force in the digital print and fulfillment market which is poised to expand rapidly in coming years.  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 as a positive tipping point for DTG2Go. In fact, DTG2Go saw growth in the June quarter of over 70% in the traditional retail channel compared to prior year.  DTG2Go started the quarter strong with new customers coming onboard to the platform and increased production from existing customers. We experienced temporary disruptions as the result of labor shortages to meet the surge in orders received, resulting in a 4% decrease in units produced compared to the June quarter of fiscal 2019. Following the implementation of additional incentive pay programs during the quarter, we anticipate a better balance of production labor to service the demand we see in the market. As a testament to the strategic benefits of being a vertically-integrated apparel supplier, customers chose Delta blanks for 56% of the garments digitally printed during the June fiscal 2021 quarter, which is significantly above the 30% Delta blank fulfillment in the prior year third quarter and ahead of the 50% Delta blank usage in the March quarter. This trend is promising as it creates a more efficient operation, reduces garment costs for our customers, and lowers working capital needs in the business.

 

We invest in digital print equipment to build production capacity, but we also make investments and improvements in our proprietary technology that will provide our customers with an even better experience as well as provide us improved inventory planning. During the June quarter, we integrated our recently acquired Autoscale technology into our DTG2Go business. Autoscale provides automated solutions for design creation, art & licensing management, and marketing spend enabling seamless connection with various online marketplaces. Integrating Autoscale’s innovative technology into our portfolio is part of our strategy to drive enterprise value over the long term by providing an automated, scalable, seamless solution for on-demand, decorated apparel – from design to fulfillment.  We believe Autoscale’s technology and innovation pipeline will expand the on-demand opportunities for our existing customers and bring new customers to the DTG2Go platform.

 

Salt Life enthusiasts are actively engaging this summer with the authentic, aspirational lifestyle brand. Showing its true omni-channel strength, sales grew over 35% compared to the pre-pandemic June 2019 quarter with at least 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 June 2020 quarter, making progress to our long-term goal of two-thirds direct-to-consumer contributions. Sales at our retail doors grew over 250% compared to the June 2019 quarter, particularly in key vacation destinations.  We plan to open additional stores in the September 2021 quarter in Myrtle Beach, South Carolina, as well as our first store in Texas in Galveston. We are accelerating our investments in this key sales channel and look to further expand the Salt Life brand reach with at least five additional retail locations in 2022. Salt Life enthusiasts also actively engaged with the brand through all our online channels. In particular, viewership of Salt Life content on YouTube increased approximately 30% for the June 2021 quarter, with minutes watched increasing more at 40% from the prior quarter.  Following the launch of our “The Daily Salt” online publication in March 2021, we have increased the frequency of content publications as well as launched a weekly podcast, “Above and Below”, in July 2021. Since June 2019, we have added approximately 30% more email subscribers, which is encouraging considering that approximately one quarter of all web sales in the June 2021 quarter were generated from our email marketing channel, driving 40% growth of ecommerce sales year-over-year in the June 2021 quarter.

 

 

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 $118.7 million, an increase of 65.3% compared to the prior year third quarter when our operations were significantly impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, and were relatively flat with the pre-pandemic June 2019 quarter.  The third quarter sales performance represents a 9.2% increase to the second quarter 2021 sales. For the first nine months of 2021, net sales were $322.0 million compared to $264.4 million in the prior year.  Our direct-to-consumer sales channels, comprised of consumer-facing ecommerce sites and our branded retail stores, increased 30% in the current quarter compared to the prior year quarter. Retail and total ecommerce sales represented 5% of total revenues for the third quarter compared to 6% in the prior year and 4% for the first nine months of both years.

 

Net sales in the Delta Group segment grew 57% to $102.6 million compared to $65.5 million in the prior year, which was unfavorably impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic.  Compared to June 2019, net sales were down 5% primarily from inventory constraints resulting from COVID-19 restrictions on manufacturing in the prior year. Net sales for the first nine months of 2021 were $284.4 million, a 19% improvement over the prior year.

 

Salt Life segment net sales grew over 150% from the prior year to $16.1 million. Compared to the June 2019 quarter, net sales increased 36%, with at least double-digit growth across all sales channels, including 250% growth in retail sales. For the first nine months of 2021, net sales were $37.6 million, up 47% from the prior year net sales of $25.7 million.

 

Gross margin improved to 25.5% versus 4.2% in the prior year and 20.8% in the June 2019 quarter  driven by the benefit of selling price increases combined with lower product costs still flowing through cost of sales. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2021, gross margins grew 700 basis points from the prior year to 23.4%.

 

The Delta Group segment gross margins were 21.7% for the June quarter, an improvement to the prior year margins of 0.7% and June 2019 margins of 17.9%. When adjusted for $12.6 million of COVID-19 related expenses in the prior year, gross margins would have been 19.7%. Gross margins improved from the benefit of selling price increases combined with benefit of lower product costs still flowing through cost of sales. Margins for the first nine months improved by 700 basis points to 20.2% of sales.

 

The Salt Life Group segment gross margins were 49.7%  compared to 40.8% in the prior year and 47.3% in June 2019 from a favorable mix of direct-to-consumer sales, especially from the Salt Life branded retail store sales.  For the first nine months of fiscal year 2021, gross margins grew 300 basis points to 47.9% also from the stronger mix of direct-to-consumer sales.

 

Selling, general, and administrative expenses ("SG&A") were $19.9 million, or 16.8% of sales, compared to $15.2 million, 21.2% of sales, in the prior year third quarter and $17.9 million, or 15.0% of sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2019.  The increase in SG&A compared to the third quarter of fiscal 2019 was driven by higher incentive compensation expenses, consistent with increases in profitability. SG&A expenses for the first nine months of 2021 were $53.0 million, or 16.5% of sales, compared to $51.1 million, or 19.3% of sales, in the prior year.

 

Other income for the 2021 and 2020 June quarters includes profits related to our Honduran equity method investment. The June 2021 quarter also includes a $1.2 million favorable valuation change in our contingent consideration liability. The first nine months of 2021  includes $1.3 million of expenses related to the impact of two hurricanes that disrupted our Honduran manufacturing facilities in the December 2020 quarter and $0.4 million of long-lived asset impairment charges as the result of a strategic decision in the March 2021 quarter to exit branded Soffe retail stores. The prior year first nine months included $8.1 million of COVID-19 related adjustments.

 

Operating profit in the third quarter increased to $11.9 million, compared to the prior year third quarter loss of $21.6 million, which included $23.1 million of COVID-19 related adjustments. Operating income for the June 2021 quarter increased over 40% compared to operating income of $8.3 million for the same quarter in fiscal 2019. For the first nine months of fiscal year 2021, operating income increased $37.9 million compared to the same period of fiscal 2020 and increased $11.5 million compared to the same period of fiscal 2019.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2020 includes $25 million of COVID-19 related expenses.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2019 includes $1.2 million, of net expenses from litigation settlements.  After adjusting for these items, the improvement in our results is principally from the stronger gross margins.

 

The Delta Group segment had operating income of $13.9 million, or 13.5% of net sales, compared to a loss of $17.5 million, or 26.7% of net sales, in the prior year and to $9.2 million, or 8.6% of net sales, in fiscal 2019. The expanded operating profitability was driven by favorable gross margins, continuing cost controls, as well as $1.2 million of income from the reduction of the contingent earnout liability in fiscal 2021 and $23.1 million of COVID-19 related expenses in fiscal 2020. Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 for the Delta Group segment was $28.4 million, or 10.0% of net sales, compared to a loss of $5.1 million, or 2.2% of net sales, in fiscal 2020 and $15.4 million, or 5.3% of net sales, in fiscal 2019.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2021 includes $1.3 million of hurricane-related expenses as well as $1.2 million of income for the reduction in the contingent earnout liability.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2020 includes $25 million of COVID-19 related expenses.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2019 includes $2.5 million of expenses from litigation settlements.

 

The Salt Life Group segment had operating income of $2.9 million, or 18.1% of net sales, compared to a loss of $0.6 million, or 10.0% of sales, in the prior year, and $2.6 million or 21.9% of sales, in fiscal 2019. Third quarter fiscal 2019 was favorably impacted by $1.1 million reduction of contingent earnout liability from the Salt Life acquisition.  Excluding this adjustment, adjusted operating income for June 2019 quarter was $1.3 million or 10.9% of net sales.  The expanded operating profit was driven from a stronger direct-to-consumer sales mix. Operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2021 for the Salt Life Group segment was $4.7 million, or 12.6% of net sales, compared to $0.2 million, or 0.7% of net sales, in fiscal 2020 and $5.6 million, or 17.3% of net sales, in fiscal 2019.  The first nine months of fiscal year 2019 includes $1.3 million of income from favorable litigation settlements as well as $1.1 million of income from a reduction in the contingent earnout liability from the Salt Life acquisition. Excluding these adjustments, adjusted operating income for the first nine months of fiscal 2019 was $3.2 million or 9.8% of net sales.

 

Net interest expense was $1.7 million for both the third quarters of fiscal 2021 and 2020. Net interest expense for the first nine months of 2021 was $5.2 million compared to $5.3 million in the prior year first nine months. 

 

Our effective tax rate on operations for the nine-month period ended June 2021 was 23.1%. This compares to an effective tax rate of 23.9% for the same period in the prior year and 23.6% for the full fiscal year 2020. See Note K—Income taxes for more information. 

 

We achieved net earnings for the June 2021 quarter of $8.2 million, or $1.14 per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $17.8 million, or $2.58 per share, in the prior year period, which included $17.7 million, or $2.57 per diluted share, of after-tax COVID-19 related expenses.  Net earnings per diluted share for the June 2021 quarter increased over 60% compared to $0.70 for the same quarter in fiscal 2019.  The third quarter fiscal 2021 results included $0.9 million, or $0.13 per diluted share, of after-tax income related to the reduction of fair value of the contingent earnout liability from the DTG2Go acquisition. The third quarter fiscal 2019 results included an after-tax gain of $0.7 million, or $0.10 per diluted share, related to the settlement of a commercial litigation matter.

 

Accounts receivable were $67.0 million at June 2021, compared to $60.1 million as of September 2020. Days sales outstanding ("DSO") as of June 2021 were 50 days compared to 51 days at September 2020.

 

Net inventory as of June 2021 was $152.3 million, an increase of $6.8 million from September 2020, but down $5.7 million from a year ago.  The strong sales in the first nine months, along with the temporary hurricane disruptions during the December 2020 quarter slowed the planned inventory build during fiscal 2021.  We have increased production during the first nine months of fiscal 2021 and are now producing at record levels.

 

Total net debt, including capital lease financing and cash on hand, was $132.3 million at June 2021, an increase of $10.1 million from September 2020. Cash on hand and availability under our U.S. revolving credit facility totaled $43.4 million at June 2021, a $3.7 million decrease from September 2020 principally driven from the $6.6 million paid for the Autoscale acquisition in June 2021.

 

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 provided $11.0 million of cash for the nine months ended June 2021 compared to $22.0 million in the prior year. The operating cash flows in the current year were impacted by increased payments to suppliers following the COVID-19 related disruptions in the prior year, along with higher inventory production in the current year.  This was partially offset by the increased operating income during fiscal 2021.

 

Investing Cash Flows

 

Total capital expenditures for the nine months ended June 2021 were $11.6 million and primarily related to investments in digital printing capacity, machinery and equipment to support our manufacturing process, and racking for our new Phoenix, Arizona distribution center.  Cash outflows for capital expenditures were $1.7 million during the first nine months of 2021 compared to $4.4 million in the same period in the prior year. Cash paid for technology intangible assets acquired as part of the Autoscale.ai acquisition was $6.7 million.  As of June 2021, there were $12.3 million of capital expenditures financed under a capital lease arrangement and $0.4 million in unpaid expenditures.  In addition, we received proceeds of $2.3 million during the first nine months of fiscal 2021 from finance lease arrangements related to prior year capital expenditure cash outflows. Total capital expenditures during the first nine months of fiscal 2020 were $8.1 million and primarily related to investments in our distribution expansion, retail stores, and machinery and equipment.

 

We anticipate our fiscal 2021 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 nine months ended June 2021, cash used by financing activities was $7.9 million and primarily related to scheduled loan principal payments, DTG2Go contingent earnout payments, and finance lease payments, partially offset by advances to fund operations, working capital needs, and capital expenditures.

 

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.

 

Prior to the amendments executed on April 27, 2020 and August 28, 2020 (collectively, the "Bridge Amendments"), our U.S. revolving credit facility included 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. The Bridge Amendments amend the financial covenant provisions from the amendment dates through July 3, 2021, including effectively lowering the minimum availability thresholds and removing the requirement that our FCCR for the preceding 12-month period must not be less than 1.1 to 1.0. Our availability at June 2021 was above both the minimum availability threshold per the Bridge Amendments as well as the higher thresholds in the U.S. credit agreement that would trigger an FCCR covenant requirement. Had we been subject to the FCCR requirements at June 2021, we would have been in compliance with this covenant.

 

Our credit facility, as well as cash flows from operations, are intended to fund our day-to-day working capital needs, and along with finance lease arrangements, to fund our planned capital expenditures. However, any material deterioration in our results of operations, such as those that could occur due to the COVID-19 pandemic, may result in the loss of our ability to borrow or issue letters of credit to suppliers under our U.S. revolving credit facility, 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.

 

Purchases By Delta Apparel Of Its Own Shares

 

During the June 2021 quarter, we did not purchase any shares of our common stock (see Note N—Repurchase of Common Stock). As of June 2021, there was $7.5 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 2020, 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 June 2021 quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
