CORTE MADERA, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- RH (Restoration Hardware Holdings, Inc. - NYSE:RH) today announced record financial results for the second quarter ended August 1, 2015. The Company will post a video presentation highlighting its continued evolution and recent performance on the RH Investor Relations website at ir.restorationhardware.com. RH leadership will also outline their plans and provide further details on the upcoming launch of both RH Modern and RH Teen in the video presentation.

Second Quarter Highlights

Net revenues increased 17% on top of a 14% increase last year
Comparable brand revenues increased 16% on top of a 13% increase last year
Adjusted operating margin increased 90 basis points to 12.2%; GAAP operating margin of 11.1% compared to 11.3% for the same period last year
Adjusted net income increased 30% to $36.0 million; GAAP net income of $29.9 million compared to $27.3 million for the same period last year
Adjusted diluted EPS increased 27% to $0.85; GAAP diluted EPS of $0.71 compared to $0.66 for the same period last year

Gary Friedman, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “RH continues to outperform the home furnishings industry by a wide margin. Net revenues exceeded our outlook and increased 17% on top of a 14% increase last year. Comparable brand revenues increased 16% on top of 13% last year – representing a 29% increase over the two-year period. Additionally, we grew our adjusted operating margin by 90 basis points and adjusted net income by 30%, both ahead of our expectations, and further demonstrating the disruptive nature of the RH brand and the power of our multi-channel business model.”

Mr. Friedman continued, “We believe that the sheer scope of what we are about to unveil over the course of just three months – September through November - illustrates our execution capabilities, our unmatched level of innovation, and the power of our multi-channel platform. We will be launching two significant new businesses, RH Modern and RH Teen - each with their own Source Book, website, and a significant retail presence. Also during this period, we have four, revolutionary next generation Design Galleries opening in Chicago, Denver, Tampa and Austin, as well as a standalone RH Modern gallery in Los Angeles, and RH Baby & Child galleries in West Palm Beach and Greenwich. We believe that the launch of RH Modern and RH Teen late in the third quarter, coupled with the new next generation Design Galleries opening in October and November, puts us on a clear path to accelerate our growth in the fourth quarter and into fiscal 2016.”

Mr. Friedman added, “We have proven our ability to execute and deliver profitable growth during this period of unprecedented innovation of our product offer and retail store experience. Since our initial public offering in 2012, our adjusted operating margins have expanded 470 basis points - from 5.8% to our guidance of at least 10.5% this year. We believe our growth is even more notable considering the significant investments we are making to develop the many new businesses we have in the pipeline and the infrastructure we are putting in place to scale them.”

Mr. Friedman concluded, “The continued momentum of our core business, coupled with the launch of RH Modern and RH Teen, and the opening of four next generation Design Galleries later this year, gives us further confidence in our financial outlook for fiscal 2015. We are increasing our adjusted net income guidance for fiscal 2015 to growth in the range of 33% to 37% - well above our long term target of mid to high twenties - and now expect net revenues to grow in the range of 16% to 17%. While still in the early stages of building RH into the leading home brand for the luxury customer, we are well on track towards our long-term goal of $4 billion to $5 billion in North American sales, mid-teens operating margins, significant free cash flow and industry-leading return on invested capital."

**Non-GAAP Financial Measures

To supplement its condensed consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”), the Company uses the following non-GAAP financial measures: adjusted operating income, adjusted operating margin, adjusted net income, and adjusted diluted EPS (collectively, “non-GAAP financial measures”). We compute these measures by adjusting the applicable GAAP measures to remove the impact of certain recurring and non-recurring charges and gains and the tax effect of these adjustments. The presentation of this financial information is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for, or superior to, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with GAAP. The Company uses these non-GAAP financial measures for financial and operational decision making and as a means to evaluate period-to-period comparisons. The Company believes that they provide useful information about operating results, enhance the overall understanding of past financial performance and future prospects, and allow for greater transparency with respect to key metrics used by management in its financial and operational decision making. The non-GAAP financial measures used by the Company in this press release may be different from the non-GAAP financial measures, including similarly titled measures, used by other companies.

For more information on the non-GAAP financial measures, please see the Reconciliation of GAAP to non-GAAP Financial Measures tables in this press release. These accompanying tables include details on the GAAP financial measures that are most directly comparable to non-GAAP financial measures and the related reconciliations between these financial measures. With respect to the Company’s non-GAAP guidance for the third and fourth quarter of fiscal 2015 and the fiscal year ending January 30, 2016, the Company is not able to provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to GAAP because it does not provide specific guidance for the various non-recurring and recurring reconciling items. For previous periods, such non-recurring and recurring reconciling items included non-cash and other one-time compensation expense, one-time income tax expense (benefit), and legal claim related expenses, among others. Certain items that impact these measures have not yet occurred, are out of the Company’s control and/or cannot be reasonably predicted, and as a result, reconciliation of the non-GAAP guidance measures to GAAP is not available without unreasonable effort.

Forward-Looking Statements

We cannot assure you that future developments affecting us will be those that we have anticipated. Important risks and uncertainties that could cause actual results to differ materially from our expectations include, among others, our ability to retain key personnel; successful implementation of our growth strategy; strikes and work stoppages affecting port workers and other industries involved in the transportation of our products; general economic conditions and the impact on consumer confidence and spending; changes in customer demand for our products; factors affecting our outstanding convertible senior notes; our ability to anticipate consumer preferences and buying trends, and maintaining our brand promise to customers; changes in consumer spending based on weather and other conditions beyond our control; risks related to the number of new business initiatives we are undertaking; our ability to obtain our products in a timely fashion or in the quantities required; our ability to employ reasonable and appropriate security measures to protect personal information that we collect; our ability to support our growth with appropriate information technology systems; risks related to “conflict minerals” compliance and its impact on sourcing, if any, as well as those risks and uncertainties disclosed under the sections entitled “Risk Factors” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Restoration Hardware Holdings’ Form 10-K filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission on March 27, 2015, and similar disclosures in subsequent reports filed with the SEC, which are available on our investor relations website at ir.restorationhardware.com and on the SEC website at www.sec.gov.

[a] Adjustments represent the estimated cumulative impact of coupons redeemed in connection with a legal claim alleging that the Company violated California’s Song-Beverly Credit Card Act of 1971 by requesting and recording ZIP codes from customers paying with credit cards.

[b] Under GAAP, certain convertible debt instruments that may be settled in cash on conversion are required to be separately accounted for as liability and equity components of the instrument in a manner that reflects the issuer’s non-convertible debt borrowing rate. Accordingly, in accounting for GAAP purposes for the $350 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in June 2014 (the “2019 Notes”) and for the $300 million aggregate principal amount of convertible senior notes that were issued in June and July 2015 (the “2020 Notes”), we separated the 2019 Notes and 2020 Notes into liability (debt) and equity (conversion option) components and we are amortizing as debt discount an amount equal to the fair value of the equity components as interest expense on the 2019 Notes and 2020 Notes over their respective terms. The equity components represent the difference between the proceeds from the issuance of the 2019 Notes and 2020 Notes and the fair value of the liability components of the 2019 Notes and 2020 Notes, respectively. Amounts are presented net of interest capitalized for capital projects of $0.6 million during the three months ended August 1, 2015.

[c] The adjustment for the three months ended August 1, 2015 represents the tax effect of the adjusted items based on our effective tax rate of 38.93%. The three months ended August 2, 2014 includes an adjustment to calculate income tax expense at a pro forma 40% effective tax rate.

[d] Adjusted net income is a supplemental measure of financial performance that is not required by, or presented in accordance with, GAAP. We define adjusted net income as net income, adjusted for the impact of certain non-recurring and other items that we do not consider representative of our ongoing operating performance. Adjusted net income is included in this press release because management believes that adjusted net income provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of operating results on a comparable basis with historical results. Our management uses this non-GAAP financial measure in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter.

Adjusted net income is included in this press release because management believes that adjusted net income provides meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of operating results on a comparable basis with historical results. Our management uses this non-GAAP financial measure in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter.
