REGIS CORPORATION
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1.
BASIS OF PRESENTATION OF UNAUDITED INTERIM CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS AND SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES:
The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Regis Corporation (the "Company") as of
September 30, 2018
and for the three months ended
September 30, 2018
and
2017
, reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary to fairly state the consolidated financial position of the Company as of
September 30, 2018
and its consolidated results of operations,
comprehensive income (loss)
and cash flows for the interim periods. Adjustments consist only of normal recurring items, except for any discussed in the notes below. The results of operations and cash flows for any interim period are not necessarily indicative of results of operations and cash flows for the full year.
The accompanying interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by the Company pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC). Accordingly, they do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (GAAP). The unaudited interim Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended
June 30, 2018
and other documents filed or furnished with the SEC during the current fiscal year.
Goodwill:
As of
September 30, 2018
and
June 30, 2018
, the Company-owned reporting unit had
$173.9 million
and
$184.8 million
of goodwill, respectively, and the Franchise salons reporting unit had
$228.3 million
and
$227.9 million
of goodwill, respectively. See Note 9 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. The Company assesses goodwill impairment on an annual basis, during the Company’s fourth fiscal quarter, and between annual assessments if an event occurs, or circumstances change, that would more likely than not reduce the fair value of a reporting unit below its carrying amount. An interim impairment analysis was not required in the three months ended September 20, 2018.
The Company performs its annual impairment assessment as of April 30. For the fiscal year 2018 annual impairment assessment, due to the transformational efforts completed during the year, the Company elected to forgo the optional Step 0 assessment and performed the quantitative impairment analysis on the Company-owned and Franchise reporting units. The Company compared the carrying value of the reporting units, including goodwill, to their estimated fair value. The results of these assessments indicated that the estimated fair value of our reporting units exceeded their carrying value. The Franchise reporting unit had substantial headroom and the Company-owned reporting unit had headroom of approximately
24%
. The fair value of the Company-owned reporting unit was determined based on a discounted cash flow analysis and comparable market multiples. The assumptions used in determining fair value were the number and pace of salons sold to franchisees, proceeds for salon sales, weighted average cost of capital, general and administrative expenses and utilization of net operating loss benefits. We selected the assumptions by considering our historical financial performance and trends, historical salon sale proceeds and estimated salon sale activities. The preparation of our fair value estimate includes uncertain factors and requires significant judgments and estimates which are subject to change. A 100 basis point increase in our weighted average cost of capital within the Company-owned reporting unit would result in a reduction in headroom to approximately
17%
.
Other uncertain factors or events exist which may result in a future triggering event and require us to perform an interim impairment analysis with respect to the carrying value of goodwill for the Company-owned reporting unit prior to our annual assessment. These internal and external factors include but are not limited to the following:
•
Changes in the company-owned salon strategy,
•
Franchise expansion and sales opportunities,
•
Future market earnings multiples deterioration,
•
Our financial performance falls short of our projections due to internal operating factors,
•
Economic recession,
•
Reduced salon traffic, as defined by total transactions, and/or revenue,
•
Deterioration of industry trends,
•
Increased competition,
•
Inability to reduce general and administrative expenses as company-owned salon count potentially decreases,
•
Other factors causing our cash flow to deteriorate.
7
If the triggering event analysis indicates the fair value of the Company-owned reporting unit has potentially fallen below more than the
24%
headroom, we may be required to perform an updated impairment assessment which may result in a non-cash impairment charge to reduce the carrying value of goodwill.
Assessing goodwill for impairment requires management to make assumptions and to apply judgment, including forecasting future sales and expenses, and selecting appropriate discount rates, which can be affected by economic conditions and other factors that can be difficult to predict. The Company does not believe there is a reasonable likelihood that there will be a material change in the estimates or assumptions it uses to calculate impairment losses of goodwill. However, if actual results are not consistent with the estimates and assumptions used in the calculations, or if there are significant changes to the Company's planned strategy for company-owned salons, the Company may be exposed to future impairment losses that could be material.
Accounting Standards Recently Adopted by the Company:
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
In May 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance for revenue recognition which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company retrospectively adopted these standards on July 1, 2018. The impact of these standards was applied to all periods presented and the cumulative effect of applying the standard was recognized at the beginning of the earliest period presented. See Note 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding the impact of the adoption of the revenue recognition guidance.
Restricted Cash
In November 2016, the FASB issued cash flow guidance requiring restricted cash and restricted cash equivalents to be included in the cash and cash equivalent balances in the statement of cash flows. Transfers between cash and cash equivalents and restricted cash are no longer be presented in the statement of cash flows and a reconciliation between the balance sheet and statement of cash flows must be disclosed. The Company retrospectively adopted this guidance on July 1, 2018. The impact of this standard was applied to all periods presented. As a result of including restricted cash in the beginning and end of period balances, cash, cash equivalents and restricted cash presented in the statement of cash flows increased
$38.4 million
,
$36.2 million
and
$37.6 million
as of June 30, 2018, September 30, 2017 and June 30, 2017, respectively.
Statement of Cash Flows
In August 2016, the FASB issued updated cash flow guidance clarifying cash flow classification and presentation for certain items. The Company retrospectively adopted this guidance on July 1, 2018. The adoption of this standard did not have a material impact on the Company's consolidated statement of cash flows.
A
ccounting Standards Recently Issued But Not Yet Adopted by the Company:
Leases
In February 2016, the FASB issued updated guidance requiring organizations that lease assets to recognize the rights and obligations created by those leases on the consolidated balance sheet. The new standard is effective for the Company in the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, with early adoption permitted. The standard allows for either (1) a modified retrospective transition method under which the standard is applied at the beginning of the earliest period presented in the financial statements or (2) an alternative transition method under which the standard is applied at the adoption date and a cumulative-effect adjustment to the opening balance of retrained earnings is recognized in the period of adoption. As part of evaluating the impact of the new standard, the Company is continuing to evaluate which transition method to use. In addition, the Company is currently leveraging its lease management system to facilitate the adoption of this standard. The Company is continuing to evaluate the effect the new standard will have on the Company's consolidated financial statements but expects this adoption will result in a material increase in the assets and liabilities on the Company's consolidated balance sheet, as substantially all of its operating lease commitments will be subject to the new guidance.

2.
REVENUE RECOGNITION:
In May 2014, the FASB issued amended guidance for revenue recognition which provides a single comprehensive model for entities to use in accounting for revenue arising from contracts with customers. The Company adopted the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, on July 1, 2018 using the full retrospective transition method which required the adjustment of each prior reporting period presented. The adjusted amounts include the application of a practical expedient that permitted the Company to reflect the aggregate effect of all modifications that occurred prior to fiscal year 2017 when identifying the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligation, determining the transaction price and allocating the transaction price to the satisfied and unsatisfied performance obligation. As a result of adopting this new standard the Company is providing its updated revenue recognition policies.
Revenue Recognition and Deferred Revenue:
Revenue recognized at point of sale
Company-owned salon revenues are recognized at the time when the services are provided. Product revenues are recognized when the guest receives and pays for the merchandise. Revenues from purchases made with gift cards are also recorded when the guest takes possession of the merchandise or services are provided. Gift cards issued by the Company are recorded as a liability (deferred revenue) upon sale and recognized as revenue upon redemption by the customer. Gift card breakage, the amount of gift cards which will not be redeemed, is recognized proportional to redemptions using estimates based on historical redemption patterns. Product sales by the Company to its franchisees are included within product revenues in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations and recorded at the time product is delivered to the franchisee. Payment for franchisee product revenue is generally collected within
30 days
of delivery.
Revenue recognized over time
Franchise revenues primarily include royalties, advertising fund fees, franchise fees and other fees. Royalty and advertising revenues represent sales-based royalties that are recognized in the period in which the sales occur. Generally, royalty and advertising revenue is billed and collected monthly in arrears. Advertising revenues and expenditures, which must be spent on marketing and related activities per the franchise agreement, are recorded on a gross basis within the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations. This increases both the gross amount of reported franchise revenue and site operating expense and generally has no impact on operating income and net income. Franchise fees are billed and received upon the signing of the franchise agreement. Upon adoption of the new revenue recognition guidance, recognition of these fees is deferred until the salon opening and is then recognized over the term of the franchise agreement, typically
ten years
. Under previous guidance the initial franchise fees were recognized in full upon salon opening.
The following table disaggregates revenue by timing of revenue recognition and is reconciled to reportable segment revenues as follows:

Receivables relate primarily to payments due for royalties, franchise fees, advertising fees, and sales of salon services and product. The receivable balance is presented net of an allowance for expected losses (i.e., doubtful accounts), primarily related to receivables from franchisees. As of September 30, 2018 and June 30, 2018, the balance in the allowance for doubtful accounts was
$1.6 million
and
$1.2 million
, respectively. Activity in the period was not significant. Broker fees are the costs associated with using external brokers to identify new franchisees. These fees are paid upon the signing of the franchise agreement and recognized as General and Administrative expense over the term of the agreement. The adoption of the amended revenue recognition guidance did not significantly change the Company's accounting for broker fees.

DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS:
In October 2017, the Company sold substantially all of
its mall-based salon business in
North America,
representing
858
salons, and substantially all of its International segment, representing approximately
250
salons in the UK, to The Bea
utiful Group ("TBG"), an affiliate of Regent, a private equity firm based in Los Angeles, California, who will operate these locations as franchise locations.
As part of the sale of the mall-based business, TBG
agreed to pay for the value of certain inventory, prepaid rent and assumed specific liabilities, including lease liabilities. In March 2018, the Company entered into discussions with TBG regarding a waiver of working capital and prepaid rent payments associated with the original transaction and the financing of certain receivables to assist TBG with its cash flow and operational needs. Based on the status of these discussions as of March 31, 2018, the Company fully reserved for the working capital and prepaid rent amount of
$11.7 million
. In August 2018, the Company entered into promissory notes for approximately
$11.7 million
in working capital receivables and
$8.0 million
in accounts receivables, a majority of which was for inventory purchases. All notes have a maturity date of August 2, 2020. Under the working capital notes, if no default has occurred under such notes and certain other conditions are met, such notes will be forgiven as of the maturity date and will be exchanged for a
three
-year contingent payment right that is payable to us upon the occurrence of certain TBG monetization events. Should the Company need to record reserves against its current and future receivables from TBG or their ability to meet the requirements of the promissory notes, these reserves would be recorded within general and administrative expenses.
For the International segment, the Company entered into a share purchase agreement with TBG for minimal consideration.
The Company classified the results of its mall-based business and its International segment as discontinued operations for all periods presented in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
In connection with the sale of the mall-based business and the International segment, the Company performed an impairment assessment of the asset groups. The Company recognized net impairment charges within discontinued operations based on the difference between the expected sale prices and the carrying value of the asset groups.
The following summarizes the results of our discontinued operations for the periods presented:

$
(264

$
(33,767
)
For the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, the
$0.3 million
loss from discontinued operations includes professional fees, partially offset by actuarial insurance accrual adjustments associated with the transaction. For the three months ended
September 30, 2017
, included within the
$33.8 million
loss from discontinued operations were
$30.5 million
of asset impairment charges,
$1.7 million
of loss from operations and
$1.6 million
of professional fees associated with the transaction.
No
income taxes were allocated to discontinued operations during the three months ended
September 30, 2017
as a result of the valuation allowance in place on all deferred tax assets associated with mall-based business and the International segment as of
September 30, 2017
.
Other than the items presented in the Consolidated Statement of Cash Flows, there were no other significant non-cash operating activities or any significant non-cash investing activities related to discontinued operations for the three months ended
September 30,
2017.
13
The Company utilized the consolidation of variable interest entities guidance to determine whether or not TBG was a variable interest entity (VIE), and if so, whether the Company was the primary beneficiary of TBG. As of
September 30, 2018
, the Company concluded that TBG is a VIE based on the fact that the equity investment at risk in TBG is not sufficient. The Company determined that it is not the primary beneficiary of TBG based on its exposure to the expected losses of TBG and as it is not the variable interest holder that is most closely associated within the relationship and the significance of the activities of TBG. The exposure to loss related to the Company's involvement with TBG is the carrying value of the amounts due from TBG and the guarantee of the operating leases.
4.
EARNINGS PER SHARE:
The Company’s basic earnings per share is calculated as
net loss
divided by weighted average common shares outstanding, excluding unvested outstanding RSAs, RSUs and PSUs. The Company’s diluted earnings per share is calculated as
net loss
divided by weighted average common shares and common share equivalents outstanding, which includes shares issued under the Company’s stock-based compensation plans. Stock-based awards with exercise prices greater than the average market price of the Company’s common stock are excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share.
For the three months ended
September 30, 2018
,
930,666
common stock equivalents of dilutive common stock were excluded in the diluted earnings per share calculations due to the
net loss
from continuing operations. For the three months ended
September 30, 2017
,
223,526
common stock equivalents of dilutive common stock were included in the diluted earnings per share calculations due to the net
income
from continuing operations.
The computation of weighted average shares outstanding, assuming dilution, excluded
357,468
and
2,530,400
of stock-based awards during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
and
2017
, respectively, as they were not dilutive under the treasury stock method.
5.
SHAREHOLDERS’ EQUITY:
Stock-Based Employee Compensation:
During the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, the Company granted various equity awards including restricted stock units (RSUs) and performance-based restricted stock units (PSUs).
A summary of equity awards granted is as follows:
For the Three Months Ended September 30, 2018
Restricted stock units
337,422
Performance-based restricted stock units
730,182
The RSUs granted to employees vest in equal amounts over a
three
-year period subsequent to the grant date, cliff vest after a
three
-year period or cliff vest after a
five
-year period subsequent to the grant date.
The PSUs granted to employees have a
three
year performance period ending June 30, 2021 linked to the Company's stock price reaching a specified volume weighted average closing price for a
50
day period that ends on June 30, 2021. The PSUs granted to certain executives include an additional
two
year service period after the performance period. Of the total PSUs granted,
49,084
PSUs have a maximum vesting percentage of
200%
based on the level of performance achieved for the respective award, while the remaining PSUs have a maximum vesting percentage of
100%
.
Total compensation cost for stock-based payment arrangements totaled
$2.3
and
$2.0 million
for the three months ended
September 30, 2018
and
2017
, respectively, was recorded within general and administrative expense on the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.
Additional Paid-In Capital:
The
$18.5 million
decrease
in additional paid-in capital during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to
$19.3 million
of common stock repurchases and
$1.5 million
of other stock-based compensation activity, primarily shares forfeited for withholdings on vestings, partly offset by
$2.3 million
of stock-based compensation.
During the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, the Company repurchased
1.1 million
shares for
$19.3 million
under a previously approved stock repurchase program. At
September 30, 2018
,
$216.0 million
remains outstanding under the approved stock repurchase program.

On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). The Tax Act made broad and complex changes to the U.S. tax code including, but not limited to, reducing the U.S. federal corporate tax rate from
35 percent
to
21 percent
.
The Company has applied guidance under SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin No. 118 which allows for a measurement period up to one year after the December 22, 2017 enactment date of the Tax Act to complete the accounting requirements. The Company recorded a provisional net tax benefit of
$68.1 million
in continuing operations through fiscal year 2018. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to previously recorded provisional amounts related to the Tax Act. We are still analyzing certain aspects of the Tax Act and refining our calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of our deferred tax balances and ultimately cause us to revise our provisional estimate in the period ending December 31, 2018 in accordance with SAB 118. In addition, changes in interpretations, assumptions, and guidance regarding the new tax legislation, as well as the potential for technical corrections to the Tax Act, could have a material impact to the Company’s effective tax rate in future periods.
The Company is no longer subject to IRS examinations for years before 2013. Furthermore, with limited exceptions, the Company is no longer subject to state and international income tax examinations by tax authorities for years before 2012.

COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business. Like certain other large retail employers, the Company has been faced with allegations of purported class-wide consumer and wage and hour violations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and the outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined. Although the actions are being vigorously defended, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations in any particular period.

Goodwill is derecognized for salons sold to franchisees with positive cash flows. The amount of goodwill derecognized is determined by a fraction (the numerator of which is the trailing-twelve months EBITDA of the salon being sold and the denominator of which is the estimated annualized EBITDA of the Company-owned reporting unit) that is applied to the total goodwill balance of the Company-owned reporting unit.

Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
As of
September 30, 2018
and
June 30, 2018
, the estimated fair value of the Company’s cash, cash equivalents, restricted cash, receivables and accounts payable approximated their carrying values. As of
September 30, 2018
and
June 30, 2018
, the estimated fair value of the Company's debt was
$90.0 million
and the carrying value was
$90.0 million
. The estimated fair value of the Company's debt is based on Level 2 inputs.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Nonrecurring Basis
We measure certain assets, including the Company’s equity method investments, tangible fixed and other assets and goodwill, at fair value on a nonrecurring basis when they are deemed to be other than temporarily impaired. The fair values of these assets are determined based on valuation techniques using the best information available, and may include quoted market prices, market comparables, and discounted cash flow projections.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (MD&A) is designed to provide a reader of our financial statements with a narrative from the perspective of our management on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity and certain other factors that may affect our future results. This MD&A should be read in conjunction with the MD&A included in our
June 30, 2018
Annual Report on Form 10-K and other documents filed or furnished with the Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) during the current fiscal year.
MANAGEMENT’S OVERVIEW
Regis Corporation (RGS) owns, franchises and operates beauty salons. As of
September 30, 2018
, the Company owned, franchised or held ownership interests in
8,115
worldwide locations. Our locations consisted of
8,027
system-wide North American and International salons, and in
88
locations we maintain a non-controlling ownership interest less than 100 percent. Each of the Company’s salon concepts generally offer similar salon products and services and serve the mass market. As of
September 30, 2018
, we had approximately
24,000
corporate employees worldwide.
CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES
The interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America. In preparing the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, we are required to make various judgments, estimates and assumptions that could have a significant impact on the results reported in the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. We base these estimates on historical experience and other assumptions believed to be reasonable under the circumstances. Estimates are considered to be critical if they meet both of the following criteria: (1) the estimate requires assumptions about material matters that are uncertain at the time the accounting estimates are made, and (2) other materially different estimates could have been reasonably made or material changes in the estimates are reasonably likely to occur from period to period. Changes in these estimates could have a material effect on our interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Our significant accounting policies can be found in Note 1 to the Consolidated Financial Statements contained in Part II, Item 8 of the
June 30, 2018
Annual Report on Form 10-K, as well as Notes 1 and 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements contained within this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. We believe the accounting policies related to the valuation of goodwill, the valuation and estimated useful lives of long-lived assets, estimates used in relation to tax liabilities, and deferred taxes are most critical to aid in fully understanding and evaluating our reported financial condition and results of operations. Discussion of each of these policies is contained under “Critical Accounting Policies” in Part II, Item 7 of our
June 30, 2018
Annual Report on Form 10-K. Our updated policies on the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, can be found in Note 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
The Company adopted the amended revenue recognition guidance, ASC Topic 606, on July 1, 2018 using the full retrospective transition method which required the adjustment of each prior reporting period presented. Recent accounting pronouncements are discussed in detail in Notes 1 and 2 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Beginning with the period ended September 30, 2017, the mall-based business and International segment were accounted for as discontinued operations for all periods presented. Discontinued operations are discussed at the end of this section.
See Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion on this transaction.
The Company realigned its field leadership team by brand during the prior year first fiscal quarter. An outcome of this reorganization is that the costs associated with senior district leaders were moved out of cost of goods sold and site operating expense, where the expense had historically been recorded, and into G&A. This change, which affected one month of comparability during the quarter, does not impact the overall consolidated results. The estimated impact of the field reorganization (decreased) increased Cost of Service, Site Operating expense and General and Administrative expense by $(2.4), $(0.4) and
$2.8 million
, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2017. This expense classification does not have a financial impact on the Company's reported operating income, reported net loss or cash flows from operations.
20
In the past field leaders were responsible for a geographical area that included a variety of brands, with different business models, services, pay plans and guest expectations. They also served as salon managers with a home salon that they spent a large portion of their time serving guests rather than field leadership. Post-reorganization, each field leader is dedicated to a specific brand/concept, as well as geography, and are focused solely on field leadership.
In the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, the Company sold 124 company-owned salons to franchisees. The impact of these transaction is as follows:

Same-store sales are calculated on a daily basis as the total change in sales for company-owned locations that were open on a specific day of the week during the current period and the corresponding prior period. Quarterly and year-to-date same-store sales are the sum of the same-store sales computed on a daily basis. Locations relocated within a one-mile radius are included in same-store sales as they are considered to have been open in the prior period. Same-store sales are calculated in local currencies to remove foreign currency fluctuations from the calculation.

Three Months Ended
September 30, 2018
Compared with Three Months Ended
September 30, 2017
Consolidated Revenues
Consolidated revenues are primarily comprised of service and product revenues, as well as franchise royalties and fees.
The same-store sales
increase
of
0.5%
during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to an
increase
of
4.2%
in average ticket price, partly offset by a
decrease
of
3.7%
in same-store guest visits. The Company constructed (net of relocations) and closed
1
and
682
company-owned salons, respectively, during the twelve months ended
September 30, 2018
and sold (net of buybacks), excluding the salons previously included in the Company's previous mall-based business and International segment,
477
company-owned salons to franchisees during the same period (2018 Net Salon Count Changes). Revenue related to franchised locations
increased
$11.4 million
during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
primarily as a result of product sold to TBG and increased number of franchised locations during the twelve months ended
September 30, 2018
.
Service Revenues
The
decrease
of
$27.8 million
in service revenues during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to the 2018 Net Salon Count Changes. The same-store service sales
increase
of
0.8%
during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, was primarily the result of a
4.7%
increase
in average ticket price and a
decrease
of
3.9%
in same-store guest visits. Also impacting service revenues during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was unfavorable foreign currency.
Product Revenues
The
decrease
of
$3.4 million
in product revenues during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to 2018 Net Salon Count Changes and same-store product sales
decrease
of
0.9%
, partly offset by product sold to TBG. For the three months ended
September 30, 2018
, the
decrease
in same-store product sales was primarily the result of
a decrease
in same-store transactions of
3.9%
, partially offset by
an increase
in average ticket price of
3.1%
.
Royalties and Fees
The
increase
of
$3.5 million
in royalties and fees for the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to an increase in franchise locations. Total franchised locations open at
September 30, 2018
were
4,205
as compared to
2,743
at
September 30, 2017
.
Cost of Service
The
80
basis point
decrease
in cost of service as a percent of service revenues during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 and improved stylist productivity, partly offset by state minimum wage increases and higher commissions rates.
Cost of Product
The
640
basis point
increase
in cost of product as a percent of product revenues during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to franchise product sold to TBG which are in-line with the transaction agreements, but are currently at lower margin rates than normal franchise rates and shift into lower margin product revenue to franchisees.
Site Operating Expenses
The
decrease
of
$3.2 million
in site operating expenses during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018 and a net reduction in salon counts, partly offset by increased advertising fund costs as a result of increased franchise salons and marketing costs associated with our industry exclusive sponsorship with Major League Baseball.
24
General and Administrative
The
increase
of
$12.6 million
in general and administrative (G&A) during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to prior year's favorable impact from gain associated with life insurance proceeds in connection with the passing of a former executive officer, the change in expense categorization as a result of the field reorganization that took place during the first quarter of fiscal year 2018, increased stock compensation expense and professional fees, partly offset by lower administrative and field management salaries and travel expense.
Rent
The
decrease
of
$6.4 million
in rent expense during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to the net reduction in salon counts, partly offset by rent inflation.
Depreciation and Amortization
The
decrease
of
$2.1 million
in depreciation and amortization (D&A) during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to the reduced salon base.
Interest Expense
The
decrease
of
$1.1 million
in interest expense for the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to a lower outstanding principal and lower interest rates associated with the revolving credit facility compared to the retired senior term note.
Loss (gain) from sale of salon assets to franchisees, net
The
decrease
of
$4.1 million
in loss from sale of salon assets to franchisees, net during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to $11.1 million of non-cash goodwill derecognition, partially offset by proceeds from the sale of salons to franchisees.
Interest Income and Other, net
The
decrease
of
$0.1 million
in interest income and other, net during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to unfavorable foreign currency.
Income Taxes
During the three months ended
September 30, 2018
the Company recognized tax benefit of
$0.7 million
, with a corresponding effective tax rate of
60.7%
as compared to recognizing tax expense of
$5.6 million
, with a corresponding effective tax rate of
39.7%
during the three months ended
September 30, 2017
.
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. government enacted comprehensive tax legislation commonly referred to as the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Act”). In connection with the Tax Act, the Company recorded a provisional net tax benefit of $68.1 million in continuing operations during fiscal year 2018. The net tax benefit is primarily attributable to the impact of the corporate rate reduction on our deferred tax assets and liabilities along with a partial release of the U.S. valuation allowance. During the three months ended September 30, 2018, the Company made no adjustments to previously recorded provision amounts related to the Tax Act. We are still analyzing certain aspects of the Tax Act and refining our calculations, which could potentially affect the measurement of our deferred tax balances and ultimately cause us to revise our provisional estimate in the period ending December 31, 2018 in accordance with SAB 118. In addition, changes in interpretations, assumptions, and guidance regarding the new tax legislation, as well as the potential for technical corrections to the Tax Act, could have a material impact to the Company’s effective tax rate in future periods.
The recorded tax provisions and effective tax rates for the three months ended September 30, 2018 and three months ended September 30, 2017 were different than what would normally be expected primarily due to the impact of the Tax Act, state conformity of the new federal provisions and the deferred tax valuation allowance. The majority of the tax provision in periods ended prior to December 31, 2017 related to non-cash tax expense for tax benefits on certain indefinite-lived assets that the Company could not recognize for reporting purposes.
See Note 6 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
25
Loss from Discontinued Operations
The
decrease
of
$33.5 million
in loss from discontinued operations during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to asset impairment charges associated with the prior year's sale of substantially all of its mall-based salon business in North America and International segments. See Note 3 to the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Results of Operations by Segment
Based on our internal management structure, we report two segments: Company-owned salons and Franchise salons. See Note 12 to the Consolidated Financial Statements. Significant results of operations are discussed below with respect to each of these segments.

Company-owned salon revenues
decreased
$39.1 million
during the three months ended

, primarily due to the closure of

company-owned salons (net of buybacks) to franchisees during the twelve months ended

, partly offset by same-store sale

Company-owned Salon Operating Income
During the three months ended

, Company-owned salon operations generated operating income of
$19.6 million
, a
decrease
of
$3.8 million
compared to the prior comparable period. The
decrease
during the three months ended
September 30, 2018
was primarily due to salon-level compensation changes, investments in a strategic digital marketing campaign, and the prior year inclusion of a more favorable self-insurance reserve adjustment, offset partly by closure of underperforming salons and increased focus on cost reduction.

primarily due to an
increase
of
$7.9 million
in franchise product sales, primarily due to product sold to TBG, and an
increase
of
$3.5 million
in royalties, Ad Fund revenue and fees, primarily as a result of increased franchised locations. During the twelve months ended

$9.7 million
, an
increase
of

Corporate Operating Loss

increased
$9.6 million
during the three months ended

$4.0 million
loss on the sale of salons to franchisees, which includes $11.1 million of non-cash goodwill derecognition and
$2.7 million
of severance related to the termination of former corporate employees during the quarter, partially offset by lower general and administrative salaries.

Uses of Cash
The Company closely manages its liquidity and capital resources.

Capital expenditures are a component of the Company's cash flow and capital management strategy which can be adjusted in response to economic and other changes to the Company's business environment. The Company has a disciplined approach to capital allocation, which focuses on investing in key priorities to support the Company's multi-year strategic plan as discussed within Part I, Item 1 of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30,
2018

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
The Company is a defendant in various lawsuits and claims arising out of the normal course of business. Like certain other large retail employers, the Company has been faced with allegations of purported class-wide consumer and wage and hour violations. Litigation is inherently unpredictable and the outcome of these matters cannot presently be determined. Although the actions are being vigorously defended, the Company could in the future incur judgments or enter into settlements of claims that could have a material adverse effect on its results of operations in any particular period.
30
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There have been no material changes in our risk factors from those disclosed in Part I, Item 1A of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2018, except for the revisions to the fifth risk factor listed below:
TBG’s inability to transition and operate its salons successfully could adversely affect our business, financial condition and results of operations or cash flows, and could prevent the transaction from delivering the anticipated benefits and enhancing shareholder value.
In October 2017, we sold substantially all of our mall-based salon business in North America and substantially all of our International segment to TBG, an affiliate of Regent, which is operating them as a franchisee. The success of TBG depends upon a number of factors that are beyond our control, including, among other factors, market conditions, retail trends in mall locations, industry trends, stylist recruiting and retention, customer traffic, as defined by total transactions, the capabilities of TBG, the accuracy and reliability of TBG’s financial reporting systems, TBG's ability to maintain adequate working capital, technology and landlord issues. In particular, we remain liable under the leases for certain of these salons until the end of their various terms, and we could be required to make payments if TBG fails to do so, which could adversely impact our results of operations or cash flows. Under the agreements with TBG, we receive fees for certain services, fees for certain transition services, and product sales revenue; however, the amount of these fees is tied to the success of the business as operated by TBG. As of September 30, 2018, it is taking longer than we originally anticipated for TBG to implement the changes intended to improve the business of the mall-based salons and the International business, and there is no assurance that TBG will be successful in doing so in the future. In addition, several of the services we provided to TBG under the transition services agreement ended in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2018, thereby reducing this current income stream. We anticipate we will attempt to reduce related general and administrative costs and other associated expenses in connection with providing these transition services; however it will take time for us to reduce all of these costs even though the related income stream has ended and we continue to provide consulting services to TBG to continue to facilitate its transition. In connection with the purchase agreements, subleases, transition services and other related agreements with the Company, from time to time, TBG has been delinquent on its payments to the Company and to third parties. It is foreseeable that TBG may in the future continue to have cash flow and working capital issues, which could have significant adverse impacts on our business, including a need to record reserves on receivables from TBG. In August 2018, we restructured certain payments due to us from TBG in the form of promissory notes representing approximately $11.7 million in working capital receivables and $8.0 million in accounts receivables, a majority of which was for inventory payables. All notes have a maturity date of August 2, 2020. Under the working capital notes, if no default has occurred under such notes and certain other conditions are met, such notes will be forgiven as of the maturity date and will be exchanged for a three-year contingent payment right that is payable to us upon the occurrence of certain TBG monetization events. Based on the likelihood of future forgiveness of the working capital notes, the Company recorded a full reserve against such notes. Should the Company need to record reserves against its current and future receivables from TBG or their ability to meet the requirements of the promissory notes, these reserves would be recorded within general and administrative expenses. In October 2018, TBG filed a voluntary insolvency proceeding involving its United Kingdom business, which its creditors approved. We had previously agreed in the note documents that such a filing would not constitute an item of default. We currently do not believe we will be directly adversely impacted by the insolvency proceeding, TBG’s debt obligations to us currently remain intact. TBG may in the future need to further restructure (operationally, legally, or otherwise) its businesses, operations and obligations. The Company has certain rights and remedies under the various agreements with TBG, including, but not limited to, utilization of collateral, litigation, reversion of the leases in respect of certain divested salons back to the Company and enforcement of a guarantee. If the divested salons were to revert, we may have difficulty supporting the businesses because of the challenges involved in quickly and sufficiently staffing the salons and corporate functions to support an influx in company-owned stores, addressing the stores’ performance issues, implementing required data privacy requirements in the United Kingdom and resuming support for the salons’ IT and marketing requirements. Overall, TBG’s inability to transition and operate the salons successfully, or its ability to make payments when due under the promissory notes or otherwise under the franchise agreements and transition service agreements, could adversely affect our business, including increased litigation risks, financial condition and results of operations or cash flows, and could prevent the transaction from delivering the anticipated benefits and shareholder value.
