Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
1.
Significant Accounting Policies
Basis of Presentation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. Accordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures included herein are adequate for the interim period presented. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2022. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position as of March 31, 2023, and September 30, 2022, our consolidated results of operations, consolidated comprehensive income and consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three and six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 and our consolidated cash flows for the for the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022 .
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements include all accounts of Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. All amounts are in U.S. Dollars.
Accounting Policies
We adhere to the same accounting policies in the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim financial statements as we do in the preparation of our full year consolidated financial statements. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, is based on full-year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon our estimated annual effective income tax.
Use of Estimates
In order to present our financial statements in conformity with GAAP, we are required to make certain estimates and assumptions that impact our interim financial statements and supplementary disclosures. These estimates may use forecasted financial information based on reasonable information available, however are subject to change in the future. Significant estimates and assumptions are part of our accounting for sales allowances, deferred revenue, valuation of inventory, amortization and depreciation, intangibles and goodwill, and other reserves. We believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, they are based on management’s current knowledge of events and actions, and changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and impact actual results.
2.
Revenue Recognition
Substantially all of our revenue is derived through the sale of merchandise at the point-of-sale. Revenue is recognized net of estimated sales returns and sales taxes. We estimate sales returns based on historical data.
Changes to our contract liabilities, which are included in accrued liabilities in our condensed consolidated balance sheets, for the periods were as follows (in thousands):

Fair Value Measurements
We measure on a recurring basis and disclose the fair value of our financial instruments under the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement, as amended (“ASC 820”). We define “fair value” as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy for measuring fair value and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date.
The three levels of that hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, included in Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 - Unobservable pricing inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own model with estimates and assumptions.
Financial instruments measured at fair value on recurring basis
Consistent with the fair value hierarchy, we categorized our financial assets and liabilities as follow:
(in thousands)

The fair value for interest rate caps and foreign exchange contracts were measured using widely accepted valuation techniques, such as discounted cash flow analyses and observable inputs, such as market interest rates and foreign exchange rates.
Other fair value disclosures
The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, trade and other accounts receivable and accounts payable and borrowing under our ABL facility approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments. Carrying amounts and the related estimated fair value of our long-term debt, excluding finance lease obligations, debt issuance costs and original issue discounts, are as follows:

Stockholders’ Equity
Share Repurchases
In August 2017, our Board of Directors (“Board”) approved a share repurchase program authorizing us to repurchase up to $ 1.0 billion of its common stock, subject to certain limitations governed by our debt agreements. In July 2021, our Board approved a term extension of the share repurchase program for the four-year period ending September 30, 2025 . As of March 31, 2023, we had authorization of approximately $ 595.8 million of additional potential share repurchases remaining under our share repurchase program. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2023, we did no t repurchase shares under our share repurchase program. For the three and six months ended March 31, 2022, we repurchased 3.1 million and 6.8 million shares of common stock, respectively, at a total cost of $ 55.0 million and $ 130.3 million, respectively.

At March 31, 2023, our ABL facility had $ 34.0 million in outstanding borrowings and $ 448.7 million available for borrowing, including the Canadian sub-facility, subject to borrowing base limitation, as reduced by outstanding letters of credit .
On February 28, 2023, we announced that our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sally Holdings LLC (“Sally Holdings”) and Sally Capital, Inc. (“Sally Capital” and, together with Sally Holdings, the “Borrowers”), and certain of our other direct and indirect subsidiaries entered into a credit agreement with Bank of America, N.A., as Administrative Agent and Collateral Agent, and the lenders and other parties thereto providing for a term loan B facility (“TLB 2030”) in an aggregate principal amount equal to $ 400.0 million, the net proceeds of which were used to repay an existing term loan B facility (“TLB 2024”). The TLB 2030 will bear interest at a floating rate equal to, at the Borrowers option, either the Adjusted Term SOFR Rate from time to time in effect plus 2.50 % or an adjusted base rate plus 1.50 %, payable quarterly on March 31, June 30, September 30 and December 31 of each year. The TLB 2030 matures on the earlier of (i) February 28, 2030 and (ii) the date that is 91 days prior to the stated maturity of the Borrowers’ 2025 Senior Unsecured Notes (the “2025 Senior Unsecured Notes”) unless all amounts exceeding $ 200.0 million of the 2025 Senior Unsecured Notes are refinanced or repaid according to certain conditions (the “Maturity Date”). The principal of the TLB 2030 is repayable in quarterly installments equal to 0.25 % of the original principal amount of the TLB 2030, with a final installment equal to the entire remaining outstanding principal amount due on the Maturity Date . TLB 2030 was issued at a discount of 0.75 % and we incurred $ 4.7 million in issuance costs; both of which are being amortized using the effective interest method.
The TLB 2030 is secured by a first-priority lien in and upon substantially all of the assets of the Company and its domestic subsidiaries other than the accounts, inventory (and the proceeds thereof) and other assets that secure Sally Holdings’ existing ABL facility on a first-priority basis (the “ABL Priority Collateral”). Additionally, the TLB 2030 is secured by a second-priority lien in and upon the ABL Priority Collateral. The TLB 2030 does not contain any financial maintenance covenants and is subject to a covenant package that is substantially consistent with the covenant package governing the 2025 Senior Unsecured Notes. The TLB 2030 is subject to customary asset sale mandatory prepayment provisions and excess cash flow mandatory prepayment provisions. The TLB 2030 is subject to a prepayment premium of 1.0 % of the principal amount thereof upon any refinancing or amendment thereof that results in a reduced effective yield (subject to certain exceptions) within six months following the closing. Thereafter, the TLB 2030 may be prepaid without penalty or premium, other than customary breakage costs for prepayments that are made prior to the last date of an interest period.
The repayment of our TLB 2024, in the aggregate outstanding principal amount of $ 406.1 million, was made pursuant to the terms of the indenture dated February 28, 2017 , at par plus interest accrued but unpaid up to, though not including, the repayment date. In connection with the repayment, we recognized a loss on the extinguishment of debt of $ 0.6 million within interest expense, which included the write-off of unamortized discount and deferred financing costs of $ 0.2 million and $ 0.4 million, respectively.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
During the six months ended March 31, 2023, we did no t purchase or hold any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. See Note 3, Fair Value Measurements , for the classification and fair value of our derivative instruments.
Designated Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Currency Forwards
We regularly enter into foreign currency forwards to mitigate our exposure to exchange rate changes on forecasted inventory purchases in U.S. dollars by our foreign subsidiaries. At March 31, 2023, we held forwards, which expire ratably through September 30, 2023 , with a notional amount, based upon exchange rates at March 31, 2023, as follows (in thousands):
Notional Currency
Notional Amount
Mexican Peso
$
12,846
Euro
7,699
Canadian Dollar
6,284
Total
$
26,829
Quarterly, the changes in fair value related to these foreign currency forwards are recorded into AOCL. As the forwards are exercised, the realized value is recognized into cost of goods sold, based on inventory turns, in our condensed consolidated statements of earnings. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized losses of $ 0.2 million and $ 0.1 million, respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized a gain of $ 0.1 million and a loss of $ 0.4 million, respectively. Based on March 31, 2023, valuations and exchange rates, we expect to reclassify losses of approximately $ 3.1 million into cost of goods sold over the next 12 months.
Interest Rate Caps
In July 2017, we purchased two interest rate caps with an initial aggregate notional amount of $ 550 million (the “interest rate caps”) to mitigate the exposure to higher interest rates in connection with our TLB 2024. The interest rate caps were comprised of individual caplets that were expiring ratably through June 30, 2023 , and were designated as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, the changes in fair value of the interest rate caps were recorded quarterly, net of income tax, and included in AOCL.
During the three months ended March 31, 2023, we early settled both interest rate caps due to the forecasted transactions being hedged no longer occurring as a result of the repayment of our TLB 2024. In connection with the early settlement, we received approximately $ 2.7 million, which represented the fair value at the time of settlement. Furthermore, we released the remaining AOCL balances related to the interest rate caps into interest expense. For the three months ended March 31, 2023, we recognized income of $ 2.8 million into interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings related to the caps. The effects of our interest rate caps on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings were not material for the three months ended March 31, 2022. For the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, we recognized income of $ 2.8 million and expense of $ 0.4 million, respectively, into interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings related to the caps.
Non-Designated Derivative Instruments
We also use foreign exchange contracts to mitigate our exposure to exchange rate changes in connection with certain intercompany balances not permanently invested. At March 31, 2023, we held forwards, which expire on various dates in the first month of both the third and fourth fiscal quarters of fiscal year 2023, with a notional amount, based upon exchange rates at March 31, 2023, as follows (in thousands):

We record changes in fair value and realized gains or losses related to these foreign currency forwards into selling, general and administrative expenses. For the three months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the effects of these foreign exchange contracts on our condensed consolidated financial statements were losses of $ 1.5 million and $ 0.2 million, respectively. For the six months ended March 31, 2023 and 2022, the effects of these foreign exchange contracts on our condensed consolidated financial statements were a loss of $ 1.1 million and a gain of $ 0.1 million, respectively.

Amounts included within COGS are related to adjustments to our expected obsolescence reserve related to the Plan (as defined below).
(b)
Amounts included within Restructuring for the current year are related to stores and distribution centers closed during the period in accordance with the Plan (as defined below).
Distribution Center Consolidation and Store Optimization Plan
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, our Board approved the Distribution Center Consolidation and Store Optimization Plan (“the Plan”) authorizing the closure of 330 SBS stores and 35 BSG stores, and the closure of two BSG distribution centers in Clackamas, Oregon and Pottsville, Pennsylvania.
We believe that consolidating the operation of these two distribution centers into our larger distribution centers will increase product availability, shorten delivery times and reduce overall costs. Stores identified for early closure were part of a strategic evaluation which included a market analysis of certain locations where we believe we will be able to recapture demand at other nearby store locations and improve overall profitability. By optimizing our store base, we are further focusing on our customers’ shopping experience and our product offerings.
As of March 31, 2023, we have closed 329 SBS stores and 28 BSG stores as part of the Plan and closed the two BSG distributions centers. The Plan will continue to be executed throughout fiscal year 2023 and into the first half of fiscal year 2024, and therefore it may include future charges related to store closures such as exit costs, lease negotiation penalties, termination benefits and adjustments to estimates.

Subsequent Event
In April 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap transaction to help mitigate the risk of our floating rate debt. The notional amount of the swap is $ 200 million with an effective date of April 28, 2023 and a termination date of April 30, 2026 . Under the terms of the swap, we will pay a fixed rate of interest of 3.705 % and will receive a floating rate of interest equal to one-month SOFR. The floating rate will be reset monthly and net settlements of interest due to/from the counterparty will also occur monthly. To the extent the floating rate of interest exceeds the fixed rate of interest, we will receive net interest settlements, which will be recorded as a reduction to interest expense. If the fixed rate of interest exceeds the floating rate of interest, we will be required to pay net settlements to the counterparty and will record those net payments in interest expense .
