Good morning, ladies and gentlemen, and welcome to the Indigo Books & Music Inc.'s Q2 fiscal year 2024 analyst conference call. At this time, all lines are in listen-only mode. Following the presentation, we will conduct a question-and-answer session. If at any time during this call you need immediate assistance, please press star zero for the operator. This call is being recorded on Wednesday, November 8, 2023. I would now like to turn the conference over to Craig Loudon. Please go ahead. Good morning, and thank you for joining us to review Indigo's fiscal 2024 second quarter results. My name is Craig Loudon, and I'm the Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer of Indigo. Regarding the materials for this conference call, we issued the press release yesterday. It can be found at indigo.ca and on SEDAR. The conference call will be recorded and archived in the investor relations section of the Indigo website. A playback of the call will also be available by telephone until November 15th. This conference call may contain forward-looking statements, and to the extent that it does, we refer you to our cautionary statement regarding forward-looking statements in the press release and the MD&A related to this quarter. I would now like to turn the call over to our Chief Executive Officer, Heather Reisman. Good morning, everyone, and thank you for joining us. I am happy to be back at Indigo as CEO and Chief Bookl over. We have a journey ahead of us. However, I'm confident that we will return Indigo to both growth and profitability. Since my return just over seven weeks ago, we have framed an Indigo 4.0 transformation plan with both short- and long-term initiatives, and all focused on making Indigo the best it has ever been. As is always the case, it will take a bit of time before we begin seeing in the numbers what we want to see, but we are definitely headed in the right direction. Just before my return, we launched a new e-commerce platform designed to provide our customers with a much-improved online shopping journey. As with all major technology changes, the early days had some challenges which impacted online sales. But as of now, most critical disruptions are fully resolved, and we're happy to share that we are now seeing a meaningful improvement in online performance and conversion. This quarter, we also released our Annual I mpact Report, which highlighted our progress towards our goal of being a net zero company. The report is a testament to our unwavering commitment to drive positive and meaningful change, both socially and environmentally. Lastly, for this report, I'm excited to share that we just opened a new store at The Well in downtown Toronto. The Well Indigo fully reflects our brand mission, which is to inspire reading and enrich the lives of our customers. The store puts books at the forefront while offering a curated and complementary assortment of general merchandise for book lovers. We invite all those listening, and in particular, those who are shareholders, to visit The Well and share your feedback. We are very excited about it. As we look ahead to the second half of this fiscal year and beyond, we will be fully focused on our Indigo 4.0 transformation plan, with priority number one being to fully reenergize our connection to our customers who have long called Indigo their happy place. I would now like to ask Craig to provide a more detailed financial perspective on the quarter. Thank you, Heather. The results we are discussing are for the 13 weeks ended September 30th, 2023, and comparative figures reference the 13 weeks ended October 1st, 2022. In the second quarter, the company generated revenue of CAD 207 million, compared to CAD 236 million for the same period last year, a change of CAD 29 million. Sales in the retail channel, which is inclusive of orders fulfilled through omnichannel store pickup, decreased by CAD 16 million, or 10%, to CAD 154 million for the quarter, compared to CAD 170 million for the same period last year. We have once again begun reporting on comparable sales. These measures are key performance indicators for the company that have no standardized meaning prescribed by IFRS and may not be comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. For more information, please refer to the Management's Discussion and Analysis for the quarter. Total comparable sales, which includes online sales, decreased 13%. Comparable retail store sales for the quarter decreased 10% in superstores and 5% in small format stores. Sales declined in comparison to an exceptional quarter in the prior year, when the company achieved its highest-ever merchandise sales in the second quarter. Like the wider retail industry, Indigo continued to be negatively impacted by the current macroeconomic environment, which has put downward pressure on consumer buying behavior, leading to reduced overall demand. This resulted in higher-than-anticipated store inventory levels, which hindered the positive customer experience the company strives for. Consumers also exhibited increased price sensitivity, shown through a lift in sales during promotional periods, particularly at the end of the quarter, when the company focused on promotional events to clear through the aforementioned excess inventory in store. Revenue from the online channel decreased by CAD 13 million, or 23%, to CAD 42 million for the quarter, compared to CAD 54 million for the same period last year. The company recently launched its new e-commerce platform, which provides improved functionality and agility and an overall superior customer experience. However, during the launch period, there were temporary disruptions to the channel, which negatively impacted online sales. As Heather mentioned, most critical disruptions are now resolved. Cost of sales for the second quarter decreased by CAD 16 million to CAD 125 million, compared to CAD 141 million for the same period last year. Excluding the impact of online shipping costs, cost of sales decreased by CAD 12 million to CAD 118 million for the quarter, compared to CAD 129 million for the same period last year. As a percentage of total revenue, this represents an increase to 57%, compared to 55% in the prior year. Cost of sales was impacted by the discussed overall reduced sales volume in the quarter. The company incurred higher discounting to sell through above optimal inventory levels, which negatively impacted cost of sales as a percentage of revenue. This impact was partially offset by reduced international freight costs, which have continued to normalize. Online shipping costs decreased by CAD 4 million to CAD 8 million for the quarter, compared to CAD 12 million in the same period last year. This was driven by the discussed reduction in online sales, further by improvements in online shipping unit economics from the consolidation with carriers offering more favorable terms. Operating, selling and administrative costs decreased by CAD 10 million to CAD 79 million for the quarter, compared to CAD 89 million for the same period last year. Variable selling costs decreased in line with the reduction in sales volumes. The company also generated cost savings through reduced labor costs, partially attributable to a new store operating model, lower warehousing and distribution center costs in both the retail and online channels, and a reduction in discretionary spending. These cost savings were partially offset by increased service fees associated with cloud computing arrangements to support the modernization of the company's e-commerce technology. Adjusted EBITDA for the quarter was a loss of CAD 13.8 million, compared to a loss of CAD 10.6 million for the same period last year. As discussed, adjusted EBITDA was impacted by reduced sales volumes, reflecting the pressures of the challenging macroeconomic environment and other customer disruptions. This led to higher than anticipated inventory levels, from which the company incurred additional discounting to sell through. By focusing on cost containment, the company was able to absorb part of the impact in lost sales to profitability, resulting in a decrease to adjusted EBITDA of only CAD 3 million compared to the prior year. Net loss for the quarter was CAD 22.4 million, or CAD 0.80 net loss per common share, compared to a net loss of CAD 15.9 million, or CAD 0.57 net loss per common share for the same period last year. In the second quarter, Indigo entered into a revolving line of credit facility with a related party, Trilogy Retail Holdings Inc., for an aggregate principal amount of up to CAD 45 million, and with the consent of Trilogy, the amount may be increased by up to CAD 10 million. At quarter end, CAD 43 million was drawn from the facility. As a reminder, Indigo's business is highly seasonal and follows quarterly sales and earnings or loss fluctuation patterns, which are similar to those of other retailers that are highly dependent on the holiday sales season. A disproportionate amount of revenues and earnings are earned in the third quarter. As a result, quarterly performance is not necessarily indicative of the company's performance for the rest of the year. At this point, we would like to open the call for any questions. Thank you. Ladies and gentlemen, we will now begin the question-and-answer session. Should you have a question, please press the star followed by the one on your touch-tone phone. You will hear a three-tone prompt acknowledging your request. If you are using a speakerphone, please flip the handset before pressing any keys. We have no questions on the line. I will turn the call back over to you. Thank you for your time and attention today. We appreciate you calling in and look forward to reconnecting on a quarterly basis. Our third quarter results will be announced on or around February 8th. Thank you again for your support, and have a great day. Ladies and gentlemen, this concludes your conference for today. We thank you for participating, and we ask that you please disconnect your lines.
