Management Commentary
"Q4 marked the eighth consecutive quarter of double-digit year-over-year comp sales growth in our private label business" said Shane Evangelist, CEO of U.S. Auto Parts. "Our continued emphasis on private label, as well as our focus on cost and pricing efficiencies, drove a 89% increase in adjusted EBITDA to $2.6 million. We expect to continue shifting the revenue mix to our higher-margin private label business and leverage our cost infrastructure to expand margins and accelerate bottom-line growth in 2016."
Fourth Quarter 2015 Financial Results
Net sales in the fourth quarter of 2015 decreased 4% to $67.5 million compared to $70.5 million in the year-ago quarter. Comparable net sales, which exclude an extra week in the fourth quarter of 2014, as well as sales related to the company's discontinued west coast wholesale operations, increased 2%. The comparable sales increase was largely driven by a 1.6% increase in online marketplace sales to $15.8 million, and an 11% increase in private label sales, partially offset by expected declines in the company's lower-margin branded business.
Gross profit in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 6% to $20.0 million compared to $18.8 million in the year-ago quarter (up 12% excluding the extra week in 2014). As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased 290 basis points to 29.6% compared to 26.7%. The increase in gross profit margin was primarily driven by a higher mix of private label sales, which were 63% of net sales compared to 58% in the year-ago quarter. The increase was also driven by strategic pricing initiatives and freight efficiencies.
Total operating expenses in the fourth quarter decreased 4% to $19.7 million compared to $20.5 million in the year-ago quarter (up less than 1% excluding the extra week in 2014). As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses increased slightly to 29.2% compared to 29.1% in the year-ago quarter.
Adjusted EBITDA in the fourth quarter of 2015 increased 89% to $2.6 million compared to $1.4 million in the year-ago quarter (up 107% excluding extra week in 2014). As a percentage of net sales, adjusted EBITDA increased 190 basis points to 3.9% compared to 2.0%. The significant increase was driven by the aforementioned improvements in gross margin and operating efficiencies.
Net loss in the fourth quarter was $0.1 million, compared to a net loss of $2.0 million in the year-ago quarter.
At January 2, 2016, cash and cash equivalents totaled $1.5 million compared to $0.8 million at January 3, 2015. Total debt was $11.8 million compared to $11.0 million at January 3, 2015.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
Regulation G, "Conditions for Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures," and other provisions of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, define and prescribe the conditions for use of certain non-GAAP financial information. We provide "Adjusted EBITDA," and "Comparable net sales" which are non-GAAP financial measures. Adjusted EBITDA consists of net income before (a) interest expense, net; (b) income tax provision; (c) depreciation and amortization expense; (d) amortization of intangible assets; (e) share-based compensation expense; and (f) restructuring costs. Comparable net sales, which includes private label comparable net sales, consists of overall net sales excluding the fourteenth week in the fourth quarter of 2014 as well as the West Coast Wholesale operations from last year's sales number, due to its closure as part of the consolidation and elimination of our Carson, California, Distribution Center. Wholesale sales are included in the Company's offline sales. Management defines comparable net sales as a comparison of the Company's net sales in the current period to those in prior periods with the same operating facilities.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP financial measures provide important supplemental information to management and investors. These non-GAAP financial measures reflect an additional way of viewing aspects of the Company's operations that, when viewed with the GAAP results and the accompanying reconciliation to corresponding GAAP financial measures, provides a more complete understanding of factors and trends affecting the Company's business and results of operations.
Management uses Adjusted EBITDA as one measure of the Company's operating performance because it assists in comparing the Company's operating performance on a consistent basis by removing the impact of stock compensation expense, as well as items that are not expected to be recurring. Internally, this non-GAAP measure is also used by management for planning purposes, including the preparation of internal budgets; for allocating resources to enhance financial performance; and for evaluating the effectiveness of operational strategies. The Company also believes that analysts and investors use Adjusted EBITDA as a supplemental measure to evaluate the ongoing operations of companies in our industry. Management uses comparable net sales as a means of comparing the Company's net sales in the current period to those in prior periods with the same operating facilities.
These non-GAAP financial measures are used in addition to and in conjunction with results presented in accordance with GAAP and should not be relied upon to the exclusion of GAAP financial measures. Management strongly encourages investors to review the Company's consolidated financial statements in their entirety and to not rely on any single financial measure. Because non-GAAP financial measures are not standardized, it may not be possible to compare these financial measures with other companies' non-GAAP financial measures having the same or similar names. In addition, the Company expects to continue to incur expenses similar to the non-GAAP adjustments described above, and exclusion of these items from the Company's non-GAAP measures should not be construed as an inference that these costs are unusual, infrequent or non-recurring.
Comparable net sales was calculated by excluding $3.64 million in sales related to the final week of the quarter and full year ended January 3, 2015, as well as $0.46 million and $4.35 million in sales related to the West Coast Wholesale operations from the quarter and full year ended January 3, 2015, respectively. Comparable net sales included private label comparable net sales which was calculated by excluding $2.0 million in private label sales related to the final week of the quarter and full year ended January 3, 2015, as well as the aforementioned sales related to the West Coast Wholesale operations from the quarter and full year ended January 3, 2015.
