Laura Alber, President and Chief Executive Officer commented, “Our
strong third quarter and our performance year-to-date illustrate the
power of our business model and the relevancy of our brands. We
delivered an 11% increase in revenue and EPS growth in excess of 18%.
Importantly, we delivered this revenue growth and accompanying operating
margin expansion while simultaneously investing in our multi-faceted
growth initiatives.”
Alber continued, “We believe we are well-positioned heading into the

deliver an exceptional experience for our customers. We are focused on

the fourth quarter, we are raising our fiscal year 2013 revenue and EPS

Direct-to-customer (“DTC”) net revenues in Q3 13 increased 14.5% to $512
million from $447 million in Q3 12, with growth across all brands,
primarily driven by Pottery Barn and West Elm. DTC net revenues
generated 49% of total company net revenues in Q3 13, compared to 47% in
Q3 12.
Retail net revenues in Q3 13 increased 8.5% to $540 million from $497
million in Q3 12, primarily driven by Pottery Barn and West Elm.
Including five net new stores within Q3 13, retail leased square footage
increased 1.6% from the end of Q3 12.
Operating margin in Q3 13 was 8.8% compared to 8.4% in Q3 12:
-
Gross margin was 38.6% versus 39.0% in Q3 12.

Merchandise inventories increased 30.5% to $899 million versus $688
million at the end of Q3 12. Excluding the impact of additional

increased 18.5% on a comparable basis.

SEC REGULATION G -- NON-GAAP INFORMATION
This press release includes non-GAAP diluted EPS. This non-GAAP
financial measure excludes the impact of employee separation charges. We
have reconciled this non-GAAP financial measure with the most directly
comparable GAAP financial measure in Exhibit 1. We believe that this
non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful supplemental information
for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitates
a meaningful evaluation of our diluted EPS results and guidance on a
comparable basis with prior periods. 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. This
non-GAAP financial measure should be considered as a supplement to, and
not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated
in accordance with GAAP.
FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS
This press release contains forward-looking statements that involve
risks and uncertainties, as well as assumptions that, if they do not

strategies; our future financial guidance, including Q4 13 and fiscal
year 2013 guidance; our three-year stock repurchase program; and our

The risks and uncertainties that could cause our results to differ
materially from those expressed or implied by such forward-looking
statements include: accounting adjustments as we close our books for Q3
13; recent changes in general economic conditions, and the impact on
consumer confidence and consumer spending; new interpretations of or
changes to current accounting rules; our ability to anticipate consumer
preferences and buying trends; dependence on timely introduction and
customer acceptance of our merchandise; changes in consumer spending
based on weather, political, competitive and other conditions beyond our
control; delays in store openings; competition from companies with
concepts or products similar to ours; timely and effective sourcing of
merchandise from our foreign and domestic vendors and delivery of
merchandise through our supply chain to our stores and customers;

Due to the differences between quarterly share counts and the
year-to-date weighted average share count calculations and the
effect of quarterly rounding to the nearest cent per diluted
share, the year-to-date calculation of GAAP and non-GAAP diluted
EPS may not equal the sum of the quarters.
|
|
|
|
**
|
|
Due to rounding to the nearest cent per diluted share, totals may
not equal the sum of the line items in the table above.
|
|
Note 1:
|
|
Impact of Employee Separation Charges – During Q1 13, we incurred
charges of approximately $0.02 per diluted share associated with the
previously announced retirement of the former President of the
Williams-Sonoma brand. These charges were recorded within the
unallocated segment.
|
|
|
|
Note 2:
|
|
Impact of Employee Separation Charges – During Q1 12 and FY 12, we
incurred charges of approximately $0.04 per diluted share primarily
associated with the previously announced retirement of our former
Executive Vice President, Chief Operating and Chief Financial
Officer. These charges were recorded within the unallocated segment.
|
|
|
|
Note 3:
|
|
SEC Regulation G – Non-GAAP Information – This table includes
Non-GAAP Diluted EPS Excluding Unusual Business Events. We believe
that this non-GAAP financial measure provides meaningful
supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of
our business and facilitates a meaningful evaluation of our diluted
EPS results and guidance on a comparable basis with prior periods.
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. This non-GAAP financial measure
should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute
for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance
with GAAP.
