LA-Z-BOY REPORTS RECORD SALES AND OPERATING INCOME FOR THE FISCAL 2022 FOURTH QUARTER AND FULL YEAR

MONROE, Mich., June 21, 2022--La-Z-Boy Incorporated (NYSE: LZB), a global leader in residential furniture, today reported record sales and operating income for the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter and full year ended April 30, 2022.

Fiscal 2022 full year versus Fiscal 2021 full year:

Consolidated sales increased 36% to a record $2.4 billion
+33% adjusting for the 53rd week in fiscal 2022
Retail segment sales increased 31% to $804 million
Record sales, operating profit, and operating margin
Joybird sales increased 62% to a record $176 million
Written sales for Joybird increased 27%
Consolidated operating margin:
GAAP: 8.8% versus 7.9%
Non-GAAP(1): 8.1% versus 9.0%
Net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated per diluted share (“EPS”):
GAAP: $3.39 versus $2.30
Non-GAAP(1): $3.11 versus $2.62
$118 million returned to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends


Fiscal 2022 fourth quarter versus Fiscal 2021 fourth quarter:

Consolidated sales increased 32% to a record $685 million
+22% adjusting for the 53rd week in fiscal 2022
Retail segment sales increased 20% to $233 million
Record sales, operating profit, and operating margin
Joybird sales increased 40% to a record $53 million
Consolidated operating margin:
GAAP: 11.5% versus 9.6%
Non-GAAP(1): 9.4% versus 10.0%
Net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated per diluted share (“EPS”):
GAAP: $1.33 versus $0.81
Non-GAAP(1): $1.07 versus $0.87
$22 million returned to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends




Melinda D. Whittington, President and Chief Executive Officer of La-Z-Boy, said, "In what was a dynamic and volatile year marked by strong consumer demand for home furnishings, significant global supply chain challenges, and now macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty, La-Z-Boy Incorporated delivered record sales and operating income driven by powerful consumer brands, vast distribution, and the hard work of our passionate team. Our company-owned Retail segment posted record sales for the year, in addition to record operating profit which more than doubled, while sales for direct-to-consumer Joybird increased 62% to a record $176 million. Our Wholesale segment delivered record sales, with strong sequential improvement on production execution and margins. We had a great finish to the year, including sequential quarterly improvement in operating margin."

Whittington added, "In the near term, we remain focused on increasing our agility to work down our backlog and improve service to customers and consumers with shorter lead times. Longer-term goals are centered on sustained profitable growth through our Century Vision strategic investments, even as we weather continued expected macroeconomic volatility. We expect our strong balance sheet and significant backlog will allow us to move through the current uncertain period and make important investments in our future as we deliver returns to all stakeholders."

Consolidated sales in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 increased 32% to $685 million versus the fiscal 2021 fourth quarter, reflecting higher production, pricing and surcharge actions, and the extra week in the fiscal 2022 quarter which increased sales by approximately $49 million based on the average weekly sales for the quarter.

Consolidated GAAP operating margin was 11.5% versus 9.6% in the prior-year fourth quarter. Consolidated non-GAAP(1) operating margin was 9.4% versus 10.0% in the prior-year fourth quarter. Operating margin for the current-year period was impacted by raw material inflation and plant inefficiencies related to increasing manufacturing capacity, partially offset by pricing and surcharge actions, and fixed-cost leverage on higher volume.

GAAP diluted EPS increased to $1.33 for the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter versus $0.81 in the prior-year quarter. Non-GAAP(1) diluted EPS increased 23% to $1.07 versus $0.87 in the prior-year fourth quarter.

Wholesale Segment:
Sales:
Increased 34% (+24% adjusting for the 53rd week) to a record $513 million in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter compared with the fiscal 2021 fourth quarter driven by realized pricing and surcharge actions as well as increased volume
Operating Margin:
Non-GAAP(1) operating margin in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter was 8.8% versus 10.2% for the prior-year period, primarily reflecting higher raw material and freight costs, differences in channel mix, and plant inefficiencies related to increasing manufacturing capacity; these factors were partially offset by pricing and surcharge actions
Sequentially from the fiscal 2022 third quarter, operating margin improved 230 basis points in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022

Retail segment:
Delivered sales:
Increased 20% (+12% adjusting for the 53rd week) to a record $233 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the prior-year fourth quarter
Delivered same-store sales increased 16% in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter versus the year-ago period
Written same-store sales for the company-owned La-Z-Boy Furniture Galleries® stores decreased 9% in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter, reflecting near-term consumer impacts of inflation and geopolitical concerns



Operating Performance:
Non-GAAP(1) operating margin increased to a record 13.0%, or $30 million in operating profit, in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter versus 12.2%, or $24 million in operating profit, in the fiscal 2021 fourth quarter, primarily driven by fixed-cost leverage on higher delivered sales volume

Corporate & Other:
Joybird delivered sales increased 40% (+30% adjusting for the 53rd week) to a record $53 million in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter compared with the same quarter last year
Joybird written sales increased 3% in the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter compared with the prior-year quarter
Joybird profit for the quarter increased versus the prior-year period, reflecting an improved gross margin and continued increased marketing investments as the company builds brand awareness while continuing to increase web conversion, retail store traffic, average order value and average sales price

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

For fiscal 2022, the company generated $79 million in cash from operating activities, after investing $72 million in higher inventory levels to protect against supply chain disruptions and to support increased production and delivered sales.

The company continued to make disciplined investments in the business, including $77 million in capital expenditures for the year, primarily related to store remodels, new upholstery manufacturing capacity in Mexico, plant upgrades, and technology upgrades.

The company returned $118 million to shareholders in fiscal 2022, including $28 million in dividends with $7 million paid in the fourth quarter, as well as $91 million in share repurchases, or approximately 2.5 million shares of stock, leaving approximately 7.5 million shares available for repurchase under its authorized share repurchase program as of April 30, 2022.

La-Z-Boy ended fiscal 2022 with $249 million in cash(2) compared with $395 million in cash(2) at the end of fiscal 2021. The company holds $27 million in investments to enhance returns on cash versus $32 million at the end of fiscal 2021.


Outlook

Bob Lucian, Chief Financial Officer of La-Z-Boy Incorporated, said, "We are pleased with our strong fourth quarter execution, as we leverage our manufacturing investments to service our large backlog. We expect current macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainty and its effect on consumer sentiment will likely cause demand trends to remain volatile for the foreseeable future. We are beginning to increase investments in marketing to drive demand for our strong brands to leverage their power in the marketplace, controlling the controllables, and improving our agility to navigate global supply chain disruptions. Taking all known factors into consideration, we expect delivered sales for the fiscal 2023 first quarter to be up 7% to 10% versus the first quarter of fiscal 2022, in a range of $560 million to $575 million, and consolidated non-GAAP operating margin to be in a range of 6.5% to 7.5%."

Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements

This news release contains “forward-looking” statements within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements can be identified by the fact that they do not



relate strictly to historical or current facts.

The forward-looking statements in this press release are based on certain assumptions and currently available information and are subject to various risks and uncertainties, many of which are unforeseeable and beyond our control, such as the continuing and developing impact of, and uncertainty caused by, the COVID-19 pandemic. Additional risks and uncertainties that we do not presently know about or that we currently consider to be immaterial may also affect our business operations and financial results. Our actual future results and trends may differ materially depending on a variety of factors, including, but not limited to, the risks and uncertainties discussed in our fiscal 2022 Annual Report on Form 10-K and other factors identified in our reports filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the "SEC"), available on the SEC's website at www.sec.gov. Given these risks and uncertainties, you should not rely on forward-looking statements as a prediction of actual results. We are including this cautionary note to make applicable and take advantage of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 for forward-looking statements. We undertake no obligation to update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or for any other reason.

Additional Information

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to the financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), this press release also includes Non-GAAP financial measures. Management uses these Non-GAAP financial measures when assessing our ongoing performance. This press release contains references to Non-GAAP operating income, Non-GAAP operating margin, and Non-GAAP net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated per diluted share (and components thereof, including Non-GAAP income before income taxes, Non-GAAP net income attributable to La-Z-Boy Incorporated), which may exclude, as applicable, business realignment charges, purchase accounting charges, benefits from the CARES Act, charges for our supply chain optimization initiative and sale-leaseback gains. The business realignment charges include severance costs, asset impairment costs, and costs to relocate equipment and inventory related to organizational changes we undertook as a result of our response to COVID, including a reduction in the company's work force, temporary closure of certain manufacturing facilities and subsequent gains resulting from the sale of related assets. The purchase accounting charges may include the amortization of intangible assets, incremental expense upon the sale of inventory acquired at fair value, amortization of employee retention agreements, fair value adjustments of future cash payments recorded as interest expense, and adjustments to the fair value of contingent consideration. The benefits from the CARES Act include the impact of employee retention credits. The charges for our supply chain optimization initiative may include severance costs, accelerated depreciation expense, costs to relocate equipment and inventory, as well as other costs related to the closure, relocation and sale of certain manufacturing operations. Sale-leaseback gains are the result of the sale of the buildings and related fixed assets of three Retail stores.

In addition, this press release references the Non-GAAP financial measure of “Non-GAAP earnings per share” for a future period. Non-GAAP earnings per share may exclude items such as pre-tax purchase accounting charges. These and other not presently determinable items could have a material impact on the determination of earnings per share on a GAAP basis and due to the probable variability and limited visibility of excluded items, therefore, we have not provided a reconciliation of Non-GAAP earnings per share for future periods in this press release. These Non-GAAP financial measures are not meant to be considered superior to or a substitute for La-Z-Boy Incorporated’s results of operations prepared in accordance with GAAP and may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. Reconciliations of such Non-GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures are set forth in the accompanying tables.

Management believes that presenting certain Non-GAAP financial measures will help investors understand the long-term profitability trends of our business and compare our profitability to prior and future periods and to our peers. Management excludes purchase accounting charges because the amount and timing of such charges are significantly impacted by the timing, size, number and nature of the acquisitions consummated and the success with which we operate the businesses acquired. While the company has a history of acquisition activity, it does not acquire businesses on a predictable cycle, and the impact of purchase accounting charges is unique to each acquisition and can vary significantly from acquisition to acquisition. Similarly, business realignment charges and the charges related to the company's supply chain optimization initiative are dependent on the timing, size, number and nature of the operations being moved or closed, and the charges may not be incurred on a predictable cycle. Management also excludes benefits from the CARES Act and sale-leasebacks when assessing the company's operating and financial performance due to the one-time or infrequent nature of these transactions. Management believes that exclusion of these items facilitates more consistent comparisons of the company’s operating results over time. Where applicable, the accompanying “Reconciliation of GAAP to Non-GAAP Financial Measures” tables present the excluded items net of tax calculated using the effective tax rate from operations for the period in which the adjustment is presented, except for the non-tax deductible goodwill impairment charge and the adjustment to the fair value of contingent consideration which reflects the associated GAAP tax impact in the period presented.
