“Q1 was a strong quarter and a good start to the year,” said Hubert Joly, Best Buy chairman and CEO. “We reported comparable sales growth at the high end of our guidance and delivered better-than-expected profitability. In addition to these strong financial results, we continued to make significant progress implementing our Best Buy 2020 strategy to enrich lives through technology and further develop our competitive differentiation.”
Joly continued, “As you know, we made an exciting announcement last month. On June 11, 2019, Corie Barry will become the fifth CEO in Best Buy’s 53-year history. At that time, I will transition to the newly created role of executive chairman of the board. I am very proud of the seamless transition we have decided to implement, as it reflects positively on our momentum as well as our focus on executive development and succession planning.”
Best Buy’s CFO and Strategic Transformation Officer Corie Barry commented, “I am deeply grateful to Hubert and the rest of the board of directors for their confidence in me and their clear belief that this leadership evolution is in the best interests of Best Buy and all its stakeholders. As I think about my new role, I could not be more fortunate to have Mike Mohan at my side as our new president and COO. Our strategy is the right one and is resonating with customers. I am so excited to work with the entire leadership team in this next chapter as we continue to implement the strategy that we helped build together.”
Barry continued, “We are pleased with our Q1 performance. As we look to the full year, we are reiterating the guidance we provided at the beginning of the year. This outlook balances our better-than-expected Q1 earnings, the fact that it is early in the year and our best estimate of the impact associated with the recent increase in tariffs on goods imported from China. Specifically, I am referring to the increase in tariffs from 10% to 25% on the products on the $200 billion List 3 that originally went into effect last September.”

- Non-GAAP diluted EPS of $5.45 to $5.652
Domestic Segment Q1 FY20 Results
Domestic Revenue
Domestic revenue of $8.48 billion increased 0.8% versus last year. The increase was driven by comparable sales growth of 1.3% and revenue from GreatCall, Inc. (“GreatCall”), which was acquired in Q3 FY19, partially offset by the loss of revenue from 105 Best Buy Mobile and 12 large-format store closures in the past year.
From a merchandising perspective, the largest comparable sales growth drivers were appliances, wearables and tablets. These drivers were partially offset by declines in the entertainment category.
Domestic online revenue of $1.31 billion increased 14.5% on a comparable basis primarily due to higher average order values and increased traffic. As a percentage of total Domestic revenue, online revenue increased approximately 180 basis points to 15.4% versus 13.6% last year.
Domestic Gross Profit Rate
Domestic gross profit rate was 23.7% versus 23.3% last year. The gross profit rate increase of approximately 40 basis points was primarily driven by the impact of GreatCall’s higher gross profit rate and improved product margin rates, which include the benefit of gross profit optimization initiatives. These favorable items were partially offset by higher supply chain costs.
Domestic Selling, General and Administrative Expenses (“SG&A”)
Domestic GAAP SG&A was $1.68 billion, or 19.8% of revenue, versus $1.67 billion, or 19.8% of revenue, last year. On a non-GAAP basis, SG&A was $1.66 billion, or 19.6% of revenue, versus $1.66 billion, or 19.7% of revenue, last year. Both GAAP and non-GAAP SG&A increased primarily due to GreatCall operating expenses, which were partially offset by lower incentive compensation expense. Additionally, GAAP SG&A in Q1 FY20 included an additional $17 million of intangible asset amortization related to GreatCall.
International Segment Q1 FY20 Results
International Revenue
International revenue of $661 million decreased 5.2% versus last year. This decline was primarily driven by the impact of approximately 390 basis points of negative foreign currency exchange rates and a comparable sales decline of 1.2%, which was driven by Canada.
International Gross Profit Rate
International gross profit rate was 24.2% versus 23.4% last year. The gross profit rate increase of approximately 80 basis points was primarily due to Canada, which delivered improved gross profit rates in several product categories and increased revenue in the higher margin rate services category.
International SG&A
International GAAP SG&A was $158 million, or 23.9% of revenue, versus $165 million, or 23.7% of revenue, last year. On a non-GAAP basis, SG&A was $158 million, or 23.9% of revenue, versus $164 million, or 23.5% of revenue, last year. Both GAAP and non-GAAP SG&A decreased due to the favorable impact of foreign exchange rates.
Dividends and Share Repurchases
In Q1 FY20, the company returned a total of $232 million to shareholders through share repurchases of $98 million and dividends of $134 million. On February 27, 2019, the company announced the intent to spend between $750 million and $1 billion on share repurchases in FY20.
Adoption of New Lease Accounting Standard
Effective at the beginning of Q1 FY20, the company adopted Accounting Standards Update 2016-02, Leases, using the “Comparatives Under 840 Option” approach to transition. Under this method, financial information related to periods prior to adoption will be as originally reported under the previous standard – Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 840, Leases. The effects of adopting the new standard (ASC 842, Leases) were recognized as a cumulative net of tax adjustment that decreased opening retained earnings by $19 million. The most significant impact of adoption was the recognition of operating lease assets and operating lease liabilities of $2.7 billion and $2.8 billion, respectively. The company expects the impact of adoption to be immaterial to its consolidated statements of earnings and consolidated statements of cash flows on an ongoing basis.
Conference Call
Best Buy is scheduled to conduct an earnings conference call at 8:00 a.m. Eastern Time (7:00 a.m. Central Time) on May 23, 2019. A webcast of the call is expected to be available at www.investors.bestbuy.com, both live and after the call.
Notes:
(1) In Q1 FY20, the company refined its methodology for calculating comparable sales. It now reflects certain revenue streams previously excluded from the comparable sales calculation, such as credit card revenue, gift card breakage, commercial sales and sales of merchandise to wholesalers and dealers, as applicable. The impact of adopting these changes is immaterial to all periods presented, and therefore prior-period comparable sales disclosures have not been restated.
On March 1, 2018, the company announced its intent to close all of the remaining 257 Best Buy Mobile stand-alone stores in the U.S. As a result, all revenue related to these stores has been excluded from the comparable sales calculation beginning in March 2018.
(2) A reconciliation of the projected non-GAAP operating income, non-GAAP effective income tax rate and non-GAAP diluted EPS, which are forward-looking non-GAAP financial measures, to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measures, is not provided because the company is unable to provide such reconciliation without unreasonable effort. The inability to provide a reconciliation is due to the uncertainty and inherent difficulty predicting the occurrence, the financial impact and the periods in which the non-GAAP adjustments may be recognized. These GAAP measures may include the impact of such items as restructuring charges; litigation settlements; goodwill impairments; gains and losses on investments; certain acquisition-related costs; and the tax effect of all such items. Historically, the company has excluded these items from non-GAAP financial measures. The company currently expects to continue to exclude these items in future disclosures of non-GAAP financial measures and may also exclude other items that may arise (collectively, “non-GAAP adjustments”). The decisions and events that typically lead to the recognition of non-GAAP adjustments, such as a decision to exit part of the business or reaching settlement of a legal dispute, are inherently unpredictable as to if or when they may occur. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could be material to future results.

RECONCILIATION OF NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES
($ in millions, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited and subject to reclassification)
The following information provides reconciliations of the most comparable financial measures presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (GAAP financial measures) to presented non-GAAP financial measures. The company believes that non-GAAP financial measures, when reviewed in conjunction with GAAP financial measures, can provide more information to assist investors in evaluating current period performance and in assessing future performance. For these reasons, internal management reporting also includes non-GAAP measures. Generally, presented non-GAAP measures include adjustments for items such as restructuring charges, goodwill impairments, gains and losses on investments, certain acquisition-related costs and the tax effect of all such items. 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 in addition to, and not superior to or as a substitute for, the GAAP financial measures presented in this earnings release and the company’s 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.
