Target Corporation Announces Second Quarter Earnings
MINNEAPOLIS - (BUSINESS WIRE) - Target Corporation (NYSE:TGT) today reported net earnings of $679
million for the quarter ended July 31, 2010, compared with $594 million
in the quarter ended August 1, 2009. Earnings per share in the second
quarter increased 17.0 percent to 92 cents from 79 cents in the same
period a year ago. All earnings per share figures refer to diluted
earnings per share.
"Our retail segment generated strong profitability, overcoming
softer-than-expected sales," said Gregg Steinhafel, chairman, president
and chief executive officer of Target Corporation. "Growth in guest
traffic and apparel sales remained robust, and teams across the company
continued to exercise thoughtful control of expenses. Our credit card
segment also enjoyed very strong results, as disciplined underwriting,
superb execution and improving risk trends caused a sharp reduction in
bad debt expense compared with last year. Regardless of the pace of
recovery, we are well-positioned to continue to gain profitable market
share."
Retail Segment Results
Sales increased 3.8 percent in the
second quarter to $15.1 billion in 2010 from $14.6 billion in 2009, due
to the contribution from new stores combined with a 1.7 percent increase
in comparable-store sales. Retail segment earnings before interest
expense and income taxes (EBIT) were $1,096 million in the second
quarter of 2010, an increase of 3.1 percent from $1,064 million in 2009.
Second quarter EBITDA and EBIT margin rates were 10.5 percent and 7.2
percent, respectively, compared with 10.6 percent and 7.3 percent in
2009. These changes were the result of slight changes in the gross
margin rate, selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expense rate,
and the depreciation and amortization (D&A) expense rate.
Second quarter gross margin rate was 32.0 percent, up from 31.9 percent
in 2009. The impact of sales mix on gross margin rate was essentially
neutral, as sales increased at a similar pace in both higher-margin and
lower-margin categories.
Second quarter SG&A expense rate was 21.5 percent, up from 21.4 percent
in 2009.
Credit Card Segment Results
Second quarter segment profit
increased to $149 million from $63 million a year ago, as bad debt
expense declined 54.5 percent from $303 million in second quarter 2009
to $138 million this year.
Second quarter average receivables decreased 15.1 percent to $7.1
billion in 2010 from $8.4 billion in 2009. Average receivables directly
funded by Target increased in the second quarter to $3.0 billion from
$2.9 billion in 2009.
Annualized segment pre-tax return on invested capital was 20.2 percent
in the second quarter 2010, compared with 8.8 percent a year ago.
Interest Expense and Taxes
Net interest expense for the
quarter decreased $9 million from second quarter 2009, driven by lower
average debt balances partially offset by a higher average portfolio
interest rate.
The company's effective income tax rate for the second quarter was 37.2
percent in 2010, down from 37.9 percent in 2009.
Share Repurchase
In the second quarter, under the share
repurchase program originally announced in November 2007 and resumed in
January 2010, the company repurchased 17.5 million shares of its common
stock at an average price of $51.72, for a total investment of $907
million.
Program-to-date through the end of the second quarter, the company has
acquired 128.6 million shares of its common stock at an average price
per share of $51.46, reflecting a total investment of $6.6 billion.

(a) Balance-weighted average one-month LIBOR
|
|
(b) As a percentage of average gross credit
card receivables.
|
|
(c) Spread to LIBOR is a metric used to
analyze the performance of our total credit card portfolio because
the vast majority of our portfolio earns finance charge revenue at
rates tied to the Prime Rate, and the interest rate on all
nonrecourse debt securitized by credit card receivables is tied to
LIBOR.
