      NAPERVILLE, Ill., Feb. 20, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- OfficeMax® Incorporated (NYSE: OMX), a leader in office and facility supplies, technology and services, today announced the results for its fiscal fourth quarter and full year ended December 29, 2012. 

      Consolidated Results

      Reported Results
      Total sales were $6,920.4 million in the full year 2012, a decrease of 2.8% compared to the full year 2011, while total sales for the fourth quarter of 2012 decreased 7.4% to $1,700.5 million compared to the fourth quarter of 2011.  For the full year 2012, OfficeMax reported operating income of $24.3 million compared to $86.5 million in the full year 2011, and net income available to OfficeMax common shareholders of $414.7 million, or $4.74 per diluted share, compared to net income of $32.8 million, or $0.38 per diluted share in the full year 2011.  

      For the fourth quarter of 2012, OfficeMax reported an operating loss of $50.1 million, compared to operating income of $12.6 million in the fourth quarter of 2011; and a net loss available to OfficeMax common shareholders of $33.9 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, compared to net income of $2.9 million, or $0.03 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011.  As previously reported, results for the fourth quarter and the full year 2011 included one additional week of operation in the U.S. ($86 million of sales) compared to fourth quarter and full year 2012.  

      Adjusted Results
      Excluding the impact of changes in foreign exchange rates, the impact of stores closed and opened, and the number of, and shift in, weeks resulting from our fiscal calendar, adjusted sales decreased 0.8% for the full year 2012 from the full year 2011, and decreased 2.7% for the fourth quarter of 2012 from the fourth quarter of 2011. 

      Adjusted operating income in the full year 2012 was $139.2 million, or 2.0% of sales, compared to $118.2 million, or 1.7% of sales, in the full year 2011, which included the benefit of $8 million of operating income due to the additional week of operation; and adjusted net income available to OfficeMax common shareholders was $68.5 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, in the full year 2012, compared to $53.3 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, in the full year 2011, which included the benefit of $0.06 earnings per diluted share due to the additional week. 

      For the fourth quarter of 2012, adjusted operating income was $28.1 million, or 1.7% of sales, compared to $30.4 million, or 1.7% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2011; and adjusted net income available to OfficeMax common shareholders was $13.9 million, or $0.16 per diluted share, compared to $14.4 million, or $0.17 per diluted share, in the fourth quarter of 2011.  The adjusted figures for the fourth quarter of 2011 also include the benefit of $8 million of operating income, and $0.06 of earnings per share due to the additional week. 

      The fourth quarter of 2012 adjusted figures in the preceding paragraph exclude $76.7 million of charges associated with the acceleration of pension expense related to participant lump sum settlements ($56.4 million); store closures in the U.S. ($14.1 million); and severance and other charges ($6.2 million) primarily related to restructurings in the Contract business.  The adjusted figures also exclude a $1.6 million non-cash charge to impair fixed assets in the fourth quarter of 2012 associated with certain retail stores, primarily in Mexico.   

      "We've been making tangible progress in executing against our strategic plan," said Ravi Saligram, President and CEO of OfficeMax.  "Our execution during 2012 resulted in a significant increase in earnings per share, strong cash flow from operations, and reinstatement of a quarterly dividend. After completing our comprehensive review, we've also simplified our balance sheet and created greater clarity for our investors."

      Contract Segment Results

      Contract segment sales decreased 5.3% compared to the prior year period to $885.4 million in the fourth quarter of 2012.  This decrease reflected a U.S. Contract operations sales decrease of 8.0% and an international Contract operations sales increase of 0.9% in U.S. dollars (a decrease of 2.6% on a local currency basis).  The Contract segment sales decline primarily reflects the $35 million of sales in the additional week in the fourth quarter of 2011.  Excluding the additional week, Contract segment sales in the fourth quarter decreased 1.6% (a decrease of 2.8% on a local currency basis) compared to the prior year; and U.S. Contract operations sales decreased 2.8%.  The U.S. Contract performance reflects weaker sales to existing corporate accounts partially offset by sales to new customers exceeding lost sales to former customers.

      Contract segment gross profit margin increased to 22.8% in the fourth quarter of 2012 from 22.2% in the fourth quarter of 2011, reflecting higher customer margins.  Contract segment operating, selling and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales increased to 20.2% in the fourth quarter of 2012 from 19.2% in the fourth quarter of 2011 primarily due to investments in growth and profitability initiatives and higher incentive compensation expense.  Contract segment income was $23.1 million, or 2.6% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $28.0 million, or 3.0% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2011.

      Retail Segment Results

      Retail segment sales decreased 9.5% to $815.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to the fourth quarter of 2011, reflecting a same-store sales decrease on a local currency basis of 4.1% primarily due to decreased traffic and lower technology product category sales.  The decrease reflected a U.S. Retail operations same-store sales decrease of 4.6%, partially offset by a Mexico retail operations same-store sales increase of 0.4% on a local currency basis.  Retail segment sales in the fourth quarter of 2012 included an additional fiscal month of sales from our majority-owned joint-venture in Mexico, as we ceased reporting one month in arrears.

      Retail segment gross profit margin increased to 28.2% in the fourth quarter of 2012 from 26.9% in the fourth quarter of 2011 due to higher customer margins driven primarily by a sales mix shift from the relatively lower margin technology category as well as prudent promotional activity, partially offset by deleveraging of occupancy costs due to lower sales.  Retail segment operating, selling and general and administrative expenses as a percentage of sales were 26.2% in the fourth quarter of 2012 and 25.5% in the fourth quarter of 2011, primarily due to deleveraging of expenses due to lower sales.  Retail segment income was $16.5 million, or 2.0% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $13.2 million, or 1.5% of sales, in the fourth quarter of 2011. 

      OfficeMax ended the fourth quarter of 2012 with a total of 941 Retail stores, consisting of 851 Retail stores in the U.S. and 90 Retail stores in Mexico.  For the full year 2012, OfficeMax Retail closed 46 stores and opened one in the U.S.; and opened 10 stores and closed two in Mexico.

      Corporate and Other Segment Results

      The Corporate and Other segment includes support staff services and certain other expenses that are not fully allocated to the Contract and Retail segments.  Corporate and Other segment operating, selling and general and administrative expenses were $11.5 million in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $10.8 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.

      Balance Sheet and Cash Flow

      As of December 29, 2012, OfficeMax had total debt of $236.2 million, excluding $735.0 million of non-recourse debt related to the Wells Fargo-backed timber notes. 

      During the full year 2012, OfficeMax generated $185.2 million of cash flow from operations compared to $53.7 in the full year 2011.  OfficeMax invested $39.0 million in capital expenditures in the fourth quarter of 2012 compared to $28.1 million in the fourth quarter of 2011.  This cash flow from operations did not include any proceeds from Boise Cascade Holdings, L.L.C., all of which were received in February 2013.  For the full year 2012, OfficeMax invested $87.2 million in capital expenditures compared to $69.6 million in 2011.

      "Strong cash flow and efforts to address legacy assets and liabilities translated into an improved balance sheet," said Bruce Besanko, EVP, Chief Financial Officer and Chief Administrative Officer of OfficeMax.  "Our continued strong financial position enables us to invest in our strategic objectives, which we believe will create long-term value for our shareholders."

      Outlook

      First Quarter 2013
      Based on the current environment, OfficeMax anticipates that total company sales for the first quarter will be lower than the first quarter of 2012, including the projected favorable impact of foreign currency translation.  Additionally, OfficeMax anticipates that for the first quarter of 2013, operating income margin will be slightly lower than the adjusted margin of 2.3% for the prior year period.   

      Full Year 2013
      For the full year 2013, OfficeMax anticipates that total company sales will be in line with the prior year period, including the projected favorable impact of foreign currency translation.  For the full year 2013, OfficeMax anticipates that operating income margin will be in line with the adjusted margin of 2.0% for the prior year.

      Outlook for operating income margin for both the first quarter and full year 2013 includes the negative impact from the lapse of a retail lease non-cash income item related to the OfficeMax-Boise merger in 2003, and discontinuation of dividend income due to the redemption of a Boise Cascade Holdings L.L.C. investment security.  Together these items will reduce 2013 adjusted operating income by approximately $4 million in the first quarter and $18 million for the full year 2013. 

      The company's full year 2013 outlook also includes the following:

      • Capital expenditures of approximately $100-125 million, primarily related to investments in IT, ecommerce, infrastructure improvements, and maintenance
      • Depreciation & amortization of approximately $75-85 million
      • Pension expense of approximately $3 million, and cash contributions to the frozen pension plans of approximately $3 million
      • Interest expense of approximately $65-69 million and interest income of approximately $42-45 million
      • An effective tax rate of approximately 34%
      • Cash flow from operations exceeding capital expenditures
      • A net reduction in total Retail square footage for the year, with U.S. activity including the expected closing of 5-10 stores, several openings, and selective relocation and downsizing of stores as locations approach lease expiration dates; Mexico activity including the expected 6 store openings and no closures

      Note:  Management evaluates the segments' performances using segment income which is based on operating income after eliminating the effect of certain operating items that are not indicative of our core operations such as an accelerated pension expense related to participant settlements, facility closures and adjustments, asset impairments and severance. These certain operating items are reported on the other operating expenses line in the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

      Reconciliation of non-GAAP Measures to GAAP Measures

      In addition to assessing our operating performance as reported under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP"), we evaluate our results of operations before non-operating legacy items, such as the gain related to an agreement that legally extinguished our non-recourse debt guaranteed by Lehman,  and certain operating items that are not indicative of our core operating activities such as accelerated pension expense related to participant settlements, facility closures and adjustments, asset impairments and severance. We believe our presentation of financial measures before, or excluding, these items, which are non-GAAP measures, enhances our investors' overall understanding of our operational performance and provides useful information to both investors and management to evaluate the ongoing operations and prospects of OfficeMax by providing better comparisons. Whenever we use non-GAAP financial measures, we designate these measures as "adjusted" and provide a reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most closely applicable GAAP financial measure. Investors are encouraged to review the related GAAP financial measures and the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to their most directly comparable GAAP financial measure. In the following tables, we reconcile our non-GAAP financial measures to our reported GAAP financial results.

      Although we believe the non-GAAP financial measures enhance an investor's understanding of our performance, our management does not itself, nor does it suggest that investors should, consider such non-GAAP financial measures in isolation from, or as a substitute for, financial information prepared in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures we use may not be consistent with the presentation of similar companies in our industry. However, we present such non-GAAP financial measures in reporting our financial results to provide investors with an additional tool to evaluate our operating results in a manner that focuses on what we believe to be our ongoing business operations.
