Holly F. Etlin Appointed Interim Chief Financial Officer
FORT WORTH, Texas, July 23, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- RadioShack Corporation (NYSE: RSH) today reported results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2013.

Joseph C. Magnacca, chief executive officer, said, "While the second quarter presented a number of challenges, it is noteworthy that we generated comparable store sales growth for the first time since 2010, and increased sales for the sixth consecutive quarter in our high-margin signature platform of products. In addition, we made progress on the initiatives we outlined last quarter in repositioning our branding, opening a new concept store, streamlining our product assortment, and entering new strategic partnerships.
"At the same time, our profitability was not where we would have liked. Our strategy this quarter was designed to move through unproductive inventory and test a variety of promotional vehicles, which we knew would have an impact on gross margin rate, but would help us identify opportunities to better align our promotional marketing going forward.
"Looking ahead, we expect the turnaround to take several quarters, and during that time our results may vary from quarter to quarter as we make strategic changes to improve our long-term financial performance. We will be guided by the five pillars of our turnaround strategy – repositioning the brand, revamping our product assortment, reinvigorating our stores, operational efficiency and financial flexibility. To support and accelerate the turnaround, we have decided to bring in AlixPartners, a global business advisory firm with expertise in corporate turnarounds, and Peter J. Solomon Company, an investment banking firm.
"We have a clear plan of action and our team is completely focused on driving the business forward. I remain confident that we can build on our strengths, improve our financial performance, and return this company to a position of prominence in the lexicon of American retailers," Mr. Magnacca concluded.
The company also announced that Dorvin D. Lively has resigned to pursue a new career opportunity and that Holly F. Etlin, a managing director at AlixPartners, has been named interim Chief Financial Officer.
SECOND QUARTER SUMMARY
- Total net sales and operating revenues were $845 million, compared to $849 million last year. The decline was driven by the impact from closed stores offset by comparable store sales growth of 1.3%. Our signature platform generated the sixth consecutive quarter of sales growth in our U.S. company-operated stores.
- Gross profit was $314 million, compared with $340 million last year. Gross profit performance was negatively impacted by a soft demand for postpaid units and consumer response to specific promotions during the quarter.
- Gross margin was 37.2% of net sales, compared to 40.1% last year. Gross margin performance was negatively impacted by our planned promotional strategy this quarter, which included testing different promotions and clearance events.
- Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $337 million, or 39.9% of net sales, compared with $337 million last year.
- Operating loss was $41 million, compared to $14 million last year.
- Net loss was $53 million, or $0.53 per diluted share, compared to net loss of $21 million last year.
- The company continues to have a strong balance sheet and total liquidity of $818 million as of June 30, 2013.
CASH, LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL SPENDING
The company ended the second quarter with total liquidity of $818 million, including cash and cash equivalents of $432 million and $386 million of available credit under the asset-based revolving credit facility that expires in January 2016.
During the quarter, the company repurchased $2 million in principal value of the 2013 Convertible Notes due August 1, 2013, for a total purchase price of $2 million.
The company's total debt was $713 million at June 30, 2013. The 2013 Convertible Notes, which had a par value of $375 million when issued, had a remaining aggregate principal amount of $214 million at June 30, 2013. As previously stated, the company's intention is to pay the balance of the Convertible Notes at maturity with cash. The balance of the company's debt comes due between 2016 and 2019.
Capital spending totaled $6 million in the second quarter compared to $17 million last year.
CFO TRANSITION
Following Dorvin Lively's decision to pursue a new career opportunity with a strategic equity-owned retail company, the company is undertaking a search for a permanent chief financial officer.
Daniel R. Feehan, Non-Executive Chairman of RadioShack's Board, said, "On behalf of our entire Board, I would like to thank Dorvin for his substantial contribution and integral role in our transformation efforts, as well as his steady leadership as our interim CEO. We understand and respect his desire to move forward with a meaningful new professional opportunity, and we wish him well."
Joseph Magnacca, Chief Executive Officer, said, "Dorvin has been an important partner to me personally over the past few months as I joined the team, and we appreciate the range of his services to RadioShack. We are also very pleased that Holly Etlin will be stepping in to serve as the interim CFO."
Mr. Lively said, "I am looking forward to the next step in my career, knowing that I leave the Company in good hands as it continues on its turnaround path with a revamped management team, a new strategic vision, and strong liquidity and financial flexibility."
Note: All comparisons are versus the same period of the prior fiscal year unless otherwise noted.
