Q3 Comparable Brand Revenue Growth of 8.1% and 25.0% on a Two-Year Basis
Operating Margin of 15.5%; Diluted EPS Growth of 13.1% to $3.72
Reiterates Full Year Outlook
Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE: WSM) today announced operating results for the third quarter ended October 30, 2022 versus the third quarter ended October 31, 2021.
“We are proud of another strong quarter generating an 8.1% comp, or a 25% two-year comp and an almost 50% three-year comp, with record EPS growth of 12% over last year to $3.72 per share. These results reflect the continuation of backlog order fulfillment, strong product margins and disciplined cost control,” said Laura Alber, President and Chief Executive Officer.
“We delivered another quarter of record revenues and earnings in a challenging environment. Our topline results illustrate our ability to gain market share. Our bottom-line results demonstrate the power of our operating model to sustain merchandise margin and control SG&A expenses,” added Jeff Howie, Chief Financial Officer.
Alber concluded, “Although the macro backdrop has become more uncertain, we believe our strong positioning, growth initiatives, and culture of financial discipline will allow us to outperform in any environment.”
THIRD QUARTER 2022 HIGHLIGHTS
- Comparable brand revenue. Increased 8.1% with a 2-year comp of 25.0% and a 3-year comp of almost 50%.
- Gross margin. Rate of 41.5% which was 220bps below last year, driven by higher shipping and freight costs with merchandise margin flat to last year with occupancy deleverage of 30bps. Occupancy costs increased 10.5% to $202 million.
- SG&A. Rate of 26.0% leveraging 160bps on a GAAP basis and 150bps on a non-GAAP basis, reflecting employment and advertising leverage.
- Operating income. $340 million, increasing 2.8% on a GAAP basis and 2.0% on a non-GAAP basis, with operating margin of 15.5%.
- Diluted EPS. $3.72 per share, increasing 13.1% on a GAAP basis and 12.0% on a non-GAAP basis.
- Cash and cash flow. Ended the quarter with $113 million in cash and generated $205 million in operating cash flow.
OUTLOOK
- We are reiterating our fiscal year 2022 guidance of mid-to-high single digit annual net revenue growth and operating margins relatively in-line with our fiscal year 2021 operating margin.
- Given the macro uncertainty, we will not reiterate or update our guidance through fiscal year 2024.
- We will provide guidance for fiscal 2023 and beyond in our press release announcing our fourth quarter fiscal 2022 results.

SEC REGULATION G — NON-GAAP INFORMATION
This press release includes non-GAAP financial measures. Exhibit 1 provides reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable financial measures calculated and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). We have not provided a reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to the corresponding GAAP measures on a forward-looking basis due to the potential variability and limited visibility of excluded items. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitate a meaningful evaluation of current period performance on a comparable basis with prior periods. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. In addition, certain other items may be excluded from non-GAAP financial measures when the company believes this provides greater clarity to management and investors. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for or superior to the GAAP financial measures presented in this press release and our financial statements and other publicly filed reports. Non-GAAP measures as presented herein may not be comparable to similarly titled measures used by other companies.

SEC Regulation G – Non-GAAP Information
These tables include non-GAAP selling, general and administrative expense, operating income, operating margin, income taxes, effective tax rate and diluted EPS. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures provide meaningful supplemental information for investors regarding the performance of our business and facilitate a meaningful evaluation of our quarterly actual results on a comparable basis with prior periods. Our management uses these non-GAAP financial measures in order to have comparable financial results to analyze changes in our underlying business from quarter to quarter. These non-GAAP financial measures should be considered as a supplement to, and not as a substitute for, or superior to, financial measures calculated in accordance with GAAP.
