DescriptionThe unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements of Business
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and its consolidated subsidiaries (“Sally Beauty” or “the Company” or “we”) sell professional beauty supplies through its Sally Beauty Supply (“SBS”) retail stores located in the U.S., Puerto Rico, Canada, Mexico, the United Kingdom, Ireland, Belgium, France, Germany, the Netherlands, Spain, Chile and Peru. Additionally, we distribute professional beauty products to salons and salon professionals through our Beauty Systems Group (“BSG”) store operations and a commissioned direct sales force that calls on salons primarily in the U.S. and Canada, and to franchises in the southern and southwestern regions of the U.S. and in Mexico through the operations of its subsidiary Armstrong McCall. A significant number of our products are also available through a number of SBS and BSG-operated websites. Certain beauty products sold by BSG and Armstrong McCall are sold under exclusive territory agreements with the third-party manufacturers.
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC. CertainAccordingly, certain information and note disclosures normally included in annual financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to the rules and regulations of the SEC, although we believe that the disclosures madeincluded herein are adequate to makefor the information not misleading.interim period presented. These condensed consolidated interim financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. All significant intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.2022. In the opinion of management, these unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements reflect all adjustments that are of a normal recurring nature and which are necessary to present fairly our consolidated financial position as of December 31, 20172022, and September 30, 2017,2022, and our consolidated results of operations, consolidated comprehensive income, and consolidated cash flows and consolidated statements of stockholders’ equity for the three months ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016.2021.
Principles of Consolidation
The unaudited condensed consolidated interim financial statements included hereininclude all accounts of Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and its subsidiaries. All intercompany accounts and transactions have been prepared on a going concern basis of accounting. Each quarter, management evaluates, based on relevant conditions and events, our ability to continue as a going concern for at least one year from the date our financial statementseliminated in consolidation. All amounts are issued. Based on management’s assessment, we have concluded that substantial doubt about our ability to continue as a going concern does not exist as of the date the condensed consolidated interim financial statements included herein were issued.in U.S. Dollars.
Certain amounts for the prior fiscal periods have been reclassified to conform to the current fiscal period presentation, in connection with the retroactive adoption of two new accounting pronouncements in the current interim period. Please see Note 3 below for additional information.
2. Significant Accounting Policies
We adhere to the same accounting policies in the preparation of our condensed consolidated interim consolidated financial statements as we do in the preparation of our full-yearfull year consolidated financial statements. As permitted under GAAP, interim accounting for certain expenses, including income taxes, is based on full-year assumptions. For interim financial reporting purposes, income taxes are recorded based upon our estimated annual effective income tax rates.tax.
3. Accounting Changes and Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Accounting ChangesUse of Estimates
In November 2015,order to present our financial statements in conformity with GAAP, we are required to make certain estimates and assumptions that impact our interim financial statements and supplementary disclosures. These estimates may use forecasted financial information based on reasonable information available, however are subject to change in the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) No. 2015-17, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Balance Sheet Classificationfuture. Significant estimates and assumptions are part of Deferred Income Taxes, which requires thatour accounting for sales allowances, deferred tax assets,revenue, valuation of inventory, amortization and depreciation, intangibles and goodwill, and other reserves. We believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable; however, they are based on management’s current knowledge of events and actions, and changes in facts and circumstances may result in revised estimates and impact actual results.
2. | Revenue Recognition |
Substantially all of our revenue is derived through the sale of merchandise at the point-of-sale. Revenue is recognized net of related valuation allowances,estimated sales returns and deferred taxsales taxes. We estimate sales returns based on historical data.
Changes to our contract liabilities, be reported as noncurrent in a classified balance sheet. We adopted the new standard retrospectively effective October 1, 2017. Accordingly, the adoption of ASU No. 2015-17 resulted in a decrease in current deferred income tax assets of $28.4 million, a decrease in current deferred income tax liabilities,which are included in accrued liabilities of $2.0 million, a net increase in noncurrent deferred income tax assets, included in other assets, of $4.3 million and a net decrease in noncurrent deferred income tax liabilities of $22.1 million in our condensed consolidated balance sheetsheets, for the periods were as follows (in thousands):

In March 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-09, Improvements to Employee Share-Based Payment Accounting, which amended several aspects of how share-based compensation is recorded and reported on the financial statements. For example, the new guidance will require that all the income tax effect related to share-based payments be recorded in income tax expense. We adopted these amendments effective October 1, 2017. In connection with this accounting change, we have elected to recognize share-based

compensation award forfeitures when they occur. Prior to the change, we recognized forfeitures based on the estimated number of awards expected to vest. As allowed, we elected to adopt retrospectively the amendment requiring that excess tax benefits (shortfalls) be reported in cash flows from operating activities in our consolidated statements of cash flows. The adoption of the amendments contained in ASU No. 2016-09 did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.sales revenue.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In May 2014, the FASB issued ASU No. 2014-09, Revenue from Contracts with Customers, which will supersede Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 605, Revenue Recognition. A core principle of the new guidance is that an entity should measure revenue in connection with its sale of goods and services to a customer based on the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for each of those goods and services. The new standard must be adopted using either the retrospective or cumulative effect transition method. For public companies, this amendment is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2017. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet selected a transition method. We have not yet adopted this accounting pronouncement and we do not believe, based on our assessment, that adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated results of operations and consolidated financial position. We are currently assessing the disclosure requirements contained in the new standard and anticipate being compliant with the additional disclosures about our revenue recognition practices required by the new standard.
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. 2016-02, Leases, which will require most leases to be reported on the balance sheet as a right-of-use asset and a lease liability. Under the new guidance, the lease liability must be measured initially based on the present value of future lease payments, subject to certain conditions. The right-of-use asset must be measured initially based on the amount of the liability, plus certain initial direct costs. The new guidance further requires that leases be classified at inception as either (a) operating leases or (b) finance leases. For operating leases, periodic expense will generally be flat (straight-line) throughout the life of the lease. For finance leases, periodic expense will decline (similar to capital leases under prior rules) over the life of the lease. The new standard must be adopted using a modified retrospective transition method. For public companies, this standard is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet adopted this accounting pronouncement. We have completed a preliminary assessment of the potential impact of adopting ASU No. 2016-02 on our consolidated financial statements. At December 31, 2017, adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 would have resulted in recognition of a right-of-use asset in the estimated amount of approximately $600.0 million and a lease liability for a similar amount in our consolidated balance sheet. We do not believe adoption of ASU No. 2016-02 will have a material impact on our earnings or cash flows. The amount of the right-of-use asset and the lease liability we ultimately recognize may materially differ from this preliminary estimate, including as a result of future organic growth in our business and potential acquisitions.
In August 2017, the FASB issued ASU No. 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815), Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, which is intended to better align an entity’s risk management activities and its financial reporting for hedging relationships. ASU No. 2017-12 will change both the designation and measurement guidance for a qualifying hedging relationship and the presentation of the impact of the hedging relationship on the entity’s financial statements. In addition, ASU No. 2017-12 contains targeted improvements to ease the application of current guidance related to the assessment of hedge effectiveness and eliminates the requirement for an entity to separately measure and report hedge ineffectiveness. For public companies, these amendments are effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2018. Early adoption is permitted. We have not yet adopted the accounting pronouncement and do not believe, based on our preliminary assessment, that adoption will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements.
4. Fair Value Measurements
Our financial instruments consist of cash equivalents, if any, trade and other accounts receivable, accounts payable, derivative instruments, including foreign exchange contracts and interest rate caps, and debt. The carrying amounts of cash equivalents, if any, trade and other accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate their respective fair values due to the short-term nature of these financial instruments.
3. | Fair Value Measurements |
We measure on a recurring basis and disclose the fair value of our financial instruments under the provisions of ASC Topic 820, Fair Value Measurement,, as amended (“ASC 820”). We define “fair value” as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (i.e., the exit price) in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. ASC 820 establishes a three-level hierarchy for measuring fair value and requires an entity to maximize the use of observable inputs and minimize the use of unobservable inputs when measuring fair value. This valuation hierarchy is based upon the transparency of inputs to the valuation of an asset or liability on the measurement date.
12The three levels of that hierarchy are defined as follows:
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc.Level 1 - Quoted prices are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities;
Level 2 - Pricing inputs are other than quoted prices in active markets, included in Level 1, that are either directly or indirectly observable; and
Level 3 - Unobservable pricing inputs in which little or no market activity exists, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own model with estimates and Subsidiariesassumptions.

4. | Stockholders’ Equity |
5. Accumulated Stockholders’ DeficitShare Repurchases
In August 2017, we announced that our Board of Directors (“Board”) approved a share repurchase program authorizing the Companyus to repurchase up to $1.0 billion of its common stock, over an approximate four-year period expiring on September 30,subject to certain limitations governed by our debt agreements. In July 2021, (the “2017 Share Repurchase Program”) and terminated our similarBoard approved a term extension of the share repurchase program approved byfor the four-year period ending September 30, 2025. As of December 31, 2022, we had authorization of approximately $595.8 million of additional potential share repurchases remaining under our Board in 2014 (the “2014 Share Repurchase Program”). Duringshare repurchase program. For the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016,2022, we did not repurchase shares under our share repurchase program. For the three months ended December 31, 2021, we repurchased and subsequently retired approximately 3.8 million and 2.53.7 million shares of our common stock at an aggregatea total cost of $64.5 million and $67.0 million under the 2017 Share Repurchase Program and the 2014 Share Repurchase Program, respectively. We reduced common stock and additional paid-in capital, in the aggregate, by these amounts. However, as required by GAAP, to the extent that share repurchase amounts exceeded the balance of additional paid-in capital prior to our recording of such repurchases, we recorded the excess in accumulated deficit. We funded these share repurchases with cash from operations and borrowings under the ABL facility.$75.0 million.

8. Commitments and Contingencies
During the fiscal year 2014, we disclosed that we had experienced a data security incident (the “2014 data security incident”). During the fiscal year 2015, we disclosed that we had experienced a second data security incident (the “2015 data security incident” and, together with the 2014 data security incident, the “data security incidents”). The costs that we have incurred to date in connection with the data security incidents include assessments by payment card networks, professional advisory fees and legal fees relating to investigating and remediating the data security incidents. In April 2017, we entered into agreements pursuant to which all existing claims and assessments by certain payment card networks were settled. We cannot provide any assurances regarding whether assessments by other payment card networks will be received.
We expect to incur additional costs and expenses related to the data security incidents in the future. These costs and expenses may result from potential additional liabilities to other payment card networks, governmental or third party investigations, proceedings or litigation and legal and other fees necessary to defend against any potential liabilities or claims, and further investigatory and

remediation costs. While we do not anticipate these additional costs and expenses or liabilities would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results, these additional costs and expenses could be significant.
9. Short-term Borrowings and Long-term Debt
Our debt outstanding at December 31, 2017 was not materially different from that at September 31, 2017. At December 31, 2017, we have $381.3$417.7 million available for borrowing, under the ABL facility, including the Canadian sub-facility. At December 31, 2017, we are in compliance withsub-facility, subject to the agreements and instruments governing our debt, including our financial covenants.conditions contained therein.
10. Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities
9. | Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities |
During the three months ended December 31, 2017,2022, we did not purchase or hold any derivative instruments for trading or speculative purposes. See Note 3, Fair Value Measurements, for the classification and fair value of our derivative instruments.
Designated Cash Flow Hedges
Foreign Currency Forwards
We regularly enter into foreign currency forwards to mitigate our exposure to exchange rate changes on forecasted inventory purchases in U.S. dollars by our foreign subsidiaries. At December 31, 2022, we held forwards, which expire ratably through September 30, 2023, with a notional amount, based upon exchange rates at December 31, 2022, as follows (in thousands):
Notional Currency |

|
Euro |
|
| 11,549 |
|
Canadian Dollar |
|
| 8,921 |
|
Total |
| $ | 38,099 |
|
Quarterly, the changes in fair value related to these foreign currency forwards are recorded into AOCL. As the forwards are exercised, the realized value is recognized into cost of goods sold, based on inventory turns, in our condensed consolidated statements of earnings. For the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized a gain of $0.3 million and a loss of $0.3 million, respectively. Based on December 31, 2022, valuations and exchange rates, we expect to reclassify losses of approximately $1.6 million into cost of goods sold over the next 12 months.
Interest Rate Caps
In July 2017, we purchased two interest rate caps with an initial aggregate notional amount of $550 million (the “interest rate caps”). to mitigate the exposure to higher interest rates in connection with our term loan B. The interest rate caps are comprised of individual caplets that expire onratably through June 30, 2023, and are designated and qualifying as cash flow hedges. Accordingly, changes in fair value of the interest rate caps are recorded quarterly, net of income tax, and are included in AOCL.
Non-designated Cash Flow HedgesFor the three months ended December 31, 2022 and 2021, we recognized expense of $0.1 million and $0.4 million, respectively, into interest expense on our condensed consolidated statements of earnings. Over the next 12 months, we expect to reclassify gains of
approximately $2.6 million into interest expense, which represents estimated interest rate settlements less the original value of the expiring caplets.
Non-Designated Derivative Instruments
We also use foreign exchange contracts to mitigate our exposure to exchange rate changes in connection with certain intercompany balances not permanently invested. At December 31, 2017,2022, we held foreign currency forward contractsforwards, which expire on various dates in the first month of both the second and third fiscal quarters of fiscal year 2023, with an aggregatea notional amount, of $100.6 million based upon exchange rates at December 31, 2017. These derivative instruments expire at various dates though September 30, 2018.2022, as follows (in thousands):

11. Income Taxes
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted comprehensive amendments to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“U.S. Tax Reform”). Among other things, U.S. Tax Reform (a) reduces the federal statutory tax rate for corporate taxpayers, (b) provides for a deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings by U.S. taxpayers and makes other fundamental changes on how foreign earnings will be taxed by the U.S. and (c) otherwise modifies corporate tax rules in significant ways. In accordance with ASC Topic No. 740, Income Taxes, entities must revalue their deferred income taxes considering the new tax rates and recognize any impact of the deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings on their financial statements based on the enacted tax law.
In December 2017, the SEC provided guidance allowing registrants to record provisional amounts, during a specified measurement period, when the necessary information2021, is not available, prepared or analyzed in reasonable detail to account for the impact of U.S. Tax Reform. Accordingly, we have reported the revaluation of deferred income taxes and the impact of the deemed repatriation on our consolidated financial statements based on provisional amounts. Specifically, in the three months ended December 31, 2017, we recognized a provisional income tax benefit of $33.6 million in connection with the revaluation of our deferred income tax assets and
16
Sally Beauty Holdings, Inc. and Subsidiaries
Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
liabilities, and a provisional income tax charge of $11.4 million for federal and state income taxes, including $10.4 million payable beyond one year, related to accumulated but undistributed earnings of our foreign operations.
For the fiscal year ending September 30, 2018, our U.S. federal statutory tax rate will be 24.5% and, for fiscal years after that, 21.0%. Among the factors that could affect the accuracy of our provisional amounts is uncertainty about the statutory tax rate applicable to our deferred income tax assets and liabilities, since the actual rate will be dependent on the timing of realization or settlement of such assets and liabilities. At December 31, 2017, we estimated the dates when such realization or settlement would occur. The actual dates when such realization or settlement occurs may be significantly different from our estimates, which could result in the ultimate revaluation of our deferred income taxes to be different from our provisional amounts. In addition, there is uncertainty about the impact of expected Internal Revenue Service (IRS) guidance intended to interpret the most complex provisions of U.S. Tax Reform. Our liability for federal and state income taxes applicable to undistributed earnings of our foreign operations may be materially different from our provisional amount as a result of such future IRS guidance and interpretation and in connection with estimates related to the amount of undistributed foreign earnings and cash balances.
We are currently assessing the potential additional impact of U.S. Tax Reform on our business and consolidated financial statements, and expect to complete such assessment on or before September 30, 2018.

12. Business Segments
Our business is organized into two operating and reporting segments: (i) SBS, a domestic and international chain of retail stores and a consumer-facing e-commerce website that offers professional beauty supplies to both salon professionals and retail customers in North America, Puerto Rico, and parts of Europe and South America and (ii) BSG, including its franchise-based business Armstrong McCall, a full service distributor of beauty products and supplies that offers professional beauty products directly to salons and salon professionals through its professional-only stores, e-commerce websites and its own sales force in partially exclusive geographical territories in North America.
The accounting policies of both of our reportable segments are the same as described in the summary of significant accounting policies contained in Note 2 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in “Item 8 - Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017. Sales between segments, which are eliminated in consolidation, were not material during the three months ended December 31, 20172022 and 2016.2021.

We believe that consolidating the operation of these two distribution centers into our larger distribution centers will increase product availability, shorten delivery times and Canada, reductions in both salariedreduce overall costs.
As of December 31, 2022, we have closed 327 SBS stores and hourly workforce14 BSG stores as part of the Plan.
Stores identified for early closure were part of a strategic evaluation which included a market analysis of certain locations where we believe we will be able to recapture demand at other nearby store locations and certain other cost reduction activities. At September 30, 2017,improve overall profitability. By optimizing our store base, we are further focusing on our customers’ shopping experience and our product offerings.
The Plan will continue to be executed throughout fiscal year 2023 and into the initiatives contemplated by the 2017 Restructuring Plan were substantially completed.first half of fiscal year 2024, and therefore it may include future charges related to store closures such as exit costs, lease negotiation penalties, termination benefits and adjustments to estimates.

During the quarter, BSG launched a new strategic partnership with Salon HQ. Salon HQ is a customizable digital storefront platform that gives stylists the ability to curate a product selection from thousands of Operations section may contain forward-looking statements. BSG merchandise choices and enables their clients to purchase directly from their shops without the stylists having to finance and carry inventory. In addition, SBS has identified the locations for its initial Studio by Sally pilot stores that we expect to open this fiscal year. The Studio by Sally pilot store program will have a digital-first focus, from digital check-in to digital education throughout the store and beyond, including personalized appointments at our in-store salons with licensed stylists who will train and educate consumers on how to color their own hair and achieve their desired results. We believe that we will be able to expand the Studio by Sally concept to 100 locations throughout the U.S. over the next three to four fiscal years if successful.
Growing high margin owned brands at Sally Beauty and amplifying innovation
We believe growing our SBS owned-brands, through innovation and marketing, will provide improved margins, strengthen our long-term relationships with existing customers and help attract new customers. During the quarter, we invested more into marketing of our owned-brands and launched the first phase of our new owned-branded hair repair product line – bondbar. These initiatives delivered an increase in our owned-brands sales penetration, resulting in increased SBS profit margins.
Furthermore, we look forward to providing salons and stylists with new innovations from our BSG vendors as they are launched over the next two fiscal quarters.
Increasing the efficiency of our operations and optimizing our capabilities
In the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022, we announced our plan to close 330 SBS stores, 35 BSG stores and two BSG distribution centers. Based on our strategic evaluation, we believe that we will able to recapture demand of closed stores in other nearby store locations and improve overall profitability. During the quarter, we completed the closure of our two BSG distributions centers and the majority of our planned store closures. Additionally, we re-optimized our store supply chain network based on our new store fleet. As of December 31, 2022, we have closed 327 SBS stores and 14 BSG stores as part of the Plan and are currently meeting our sales recapture expectations.

Trends Impacting Our Business
Global inflationary pressures continue to influence consumer and stylist behavior along with the cost for products and services.In the U.S. and Canada, we are seeing our SBS customers color their hair less frequently and reduce the size of their basket when they shop with us, while at BSG we are seeing stylists purchasing closer to the time they use products. Additionally, inflationary pressures have impacted wages, especially among retail and hourly employees, as we have experienced an increase in our labor costs in order to attract and retain associates. During the current quarter, these headwinds have resulted in lower traffic and conversion in our business and increases in certain operating costs. We continue to monitor these challenges and implement measures to help mitigate their impacts, including managing our inventory levels to reduce out-of-stock items, adjusting our promotional activities, optimizing our store base and expanding our partnerships with delivery service providers. Although these initiatives have helped mitigate ongoing macro-headwinds, we cannot reasonably predict the long-term effects of inflation.
Furthermore, in a measure to curb inflation, the U.S. Federal Reserve has increased the federal funds effective rate. In turn, these increases have raised the cost of debt borrowings. We currently have $471.1 million in variable rate debt outstanding, of which $406.1 million is hedged with interest rate caps to help mitigate the impact of raising rates. Future increases in the federal funds effective rate could have a material adverse impact to our cost of borrowing, including any future changes in our debt structure.
Impact of COVID-19 on Our Business
While we have seen signs of stabilization from the impacts of the COVID-19 virus, we cannot reasonably predict the effects of new variants or expect improving trends to continue. Therefore, our future performance may partially depend on impacts of COVID-19, such as decreased customer in-store traffic, temporary store closures, and labor and supply chain disruptions.

Overview
Description of Business
We operate primarily through two reportable segments: Sally Beauty Supply (“SBS”) and Beauty Systems Group (“BSG”). We believe we are the largest open-line distributor of professional beauty supplies in the U.S. based on store count. As of December 31, 2017, through SBS and BSG, we had 4,993 company-operated stores and supplied 184 franchised stores in North America and select South American and European countries. Within BSG, we also have one of the largest networkslast day of distributora month and e-commerce revenue. Additionally, comparable sales consultants for professional beauty productsinclude sales to franchisees and full service sales. Our comparable sales excludes the effect of changes in North America. We offer a wide varietyforeign exchange rates and sales from stores relocated until 14 months after the relocation. Revenue from acquisitions are excluded from our comparable sales calculation until 14 months after the acquisition. Our calculation of leading third-party branded and exclusive-label professional beauty supplies, including hair color products, hair care products, styling tools, skin and nail care products andcomparable sales might not be the same as other retailers as the calculation varies across the retail industry.
beauty items. SBS targets retail consumers and salon professionals, while BSG exclusively targets salons and salonprofessionals. Neither the sales nor the product assortment for SBS or BSG are generally seasonal in nature.
Restructuring PlansOverview
During the three months ended December 31, 2017, we recognized restructuring charges of approximately $5.2 million in connection with the 2018 Restructuring Plan, including severance and related expenses of approximately $4.3 million and expenses related to other cost-reduction initiatives of $0.9 million. We anticipate substantially completing the 2018 Restructuring Plan in fiscal year 2018. We expect to realize annualized pre-tax benefits in the range of $12 million to $14 million from the 2018 Restructuring Plan, with an estimated benefit of approximately $8 million realized in fiscal year 2018. See Note 14 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information about our restructuring plans.
U.S. Tax Reform
On December 22, 2017, the U.S. enacted comprehensive amendments to the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“U.S. Tax Reform”). See Note 11 of the Condensed Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report for more information about the impact of the US. Tax Reform on our financial statements.
Data Security Incidents
As previously disclosed, we experienced a data security incident during fiscal year 2014 and a second data security incident during fiscal year 2015 (together, the “data security incidents”). In the fiscal years 2016 and 2015, we incurred $14.6 million and $5.6 million, respectively, of expenses in connection with the data security incidents. In the fiscal year 2017, we settled prior assessments by two payment card networks for $9.3 million. We expect to incur additional costs and expenses related to the data security incidents in future periods. These costs and expenses may result from potential additional liabilities to other payment card networks, governmental or third party investigations, proceedings or litigation and legal and other fees necessary to defend against any potential liabilities or claims, and further investigatory and remediation costs. As of December 31, 2017, the scope of these additional costs and expenses, or a range thereof, beyond amounts management has determined to be probable, cannot be reasonably estimated and, while we do not anticipate these additional costs and expenses or liabilities would have a material adverse impact on our business, financial condition and operating results, these additional costs and expenses could be significant.

The decrease in SBS’s net sales was driven by the negative impact from foreign exchange rates and the impact of store closures in the prior twelve months, including stores closed under the Plan, partially offset by an increase in our comparable sales. SBS’s comparable sales increase was driven by a growth in average ticket, primarily from inflationary impacts and pricing leverage, and partially offset by fewer transactions.

The decrease in BSG’s net sales was primarily due to lower comparable sales, the impact of closed stores and the negative impact from the Canadian foreign exchange rate. BSG’s comparable sales faced headwinds from elevated demand in the prior year from the easing of COVID-19 restrictions and the impacts of the current economic environment which resulted in fewer transactions, but was partially offset by growth in average ticket.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We broadly defineOverview
Our principal sources of liquidity as our ability to generate sufficientare from cash and cash equivalents, cash from internaloperations and external sources, to meet our contractual obligations and commitments. In addition, liquidity includes the ability to obtain appropriate debt and equity financing and to convert into cash those assets that are no longer required to meet existing strategic and financial objectives. Therefore, liquidity cannot be considered separately from capital resources that consist of current or potentially available funds for use in achieving long-range business objectives and meeting debt service commitments.
We are highly leveraged and aABL facility. A substantial portion of our liquidity needs will arise from debt service on our outstanding indebtedness and from funding the costs of our operations, working capital, capital expenditures, debt interest and principal payment. Additionally, under our share repurchases. repurchase program, see below for more details, we will repurchase shares of our common stock on the open market to return value to our shareholders. At December 31, 2022, we had $440.8 million in our liquidity pool, which includes $417.7 million available for borrowings under our ABL facility and cash and cash equivalents of $99.1 million.
Working capital (current assets less current liabilities) increased $4.2$77.4 million, to $573.7$541.9 million at December 31, 2017,2022, compared to $569.5$464.5 million at September 30, 2017,2022. This increase was driven by higher inventory balances, resulting primarily from inflationary cost increases and the impact of foreign exchange rates of $12.7 million, and an increase in cash and cash equivalents and inventory, partially offset by a decrease in other current
assets and an increase in income taxes payable. As a holding company, Sally Beauty depends on its subsidiaries, including Sally Holdings, to distribute funds to it so that it may pay its obligations and expenses. The ability of Sally Beauty’s subsidiaries to make such distributions will be subject to their operating results, cash requirements and financial condition and their compliance with relevant laws, and covenants and financial ratios related to their existing or future indebtedness, including covenants restricting Sally Holdings’ ability to pay dividends to Sally Beauty. If, as a consequence of these limitations, the Company cannot receive sufficient distributions from its subsidiaries, it may not be able to meet its obligations to fund general corporate expenses.equivalents.
The Company may from time to time repurchase or otherwise retire or refinance its debt (through its subsidiaries or otherwise) and take other steps to reduce or refinance its debt. These actions may include open market repurchases of its notes or other retirements of outstanding debt. The amount of debt that may be repurchased, or refinanced or otherwise retired, if any, will be determined in the sole discretion of our Board of Directors and will depend on market conditions, trading levels of the Company’s debt from time to time, the Company’s cash position and other considerations.
At December 31, 2017, cash and cash equivalents were $79.3 million. Based upon the current level of operations and anticipated growth, weWe anticipate that existing cash balances (excluding certain amounts permanently invested in connection with foreign operations), fundscash expected to be generated by operations, and funds available under theour ABL facility will be sufficient to meetfund our working capital requirements, fund share repurchases and potential acquisitions, and finance anticipated capital expenditures, including information technology upgrades and store openings,expenditure requirements over the next 12twelve months.

Net Cash Provided (Used) by Operating Activities
The change in net cash provided by operating activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to the net cash used by operating activities three months ended December 31, 2021, was driven by the timing of inventory purchases, primarily from the impact of global supply chain issues in the prior year. Additionally, it was driven by the timing of income taxes and a decrease in net sales.
Net Cash Used by Investing Activities
The decrease in net cash used by investing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021, was driven by fewer capital expenditures related to store improvements and information technology.
Net Cash Used by Financing Activities
The decrease in net cash used by financing activities for the three months ended December 31, 2022, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2021, was a result of share repurchases in the prior year and lower cash proceeds from employees exercising equity awards.
Debt and Guarantor Financial Information
At December 31, 2022, we had $1,151.1 million in debt, not including capital leases, unamortized debt issuance costs and debt discounts, in the aggregate, of $3.7 million. Our debt consists of $680.0 million in 5.625% Senior Notes due 2025 (“2025 Senior Notes”) outstanding, $406.1 million remaining on our term loan and $65.0 million in outstanding borrowings under our ABL facility.
We utilize our ABL facility for the issuance of letters of credit, for certain working capital and liquidity needs, and to manage normal fluctuations in our operational cash flow. In that regard, we may from time to time draw funds under the ABL facility for general corporate purposes including funding of capital expenditures, acquisitions, interest payments duepaying down other debt and share repurchases. Amounts
drawn on our indebtedness and share repurchases.ABL facility are generally paid down with cash provided by our operating activities. During the three months ended December 31, 2017, total borrowings outstanding have ranged from $77.5 million up to $133.0 million and the average daily balance outstanding was $100.5 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2017,2022, the weighted average interest rate on our borrowings under the ABL facility was 3.0%5.2%. The amounts drawn are generally paid down with cash provided by our operating activities. As of December 31, 2017, Sally Holdings had $381.3 million available for borrowings under the ABL facility, subject to borrowing base limitations, as reduced by outstanding letters of credit.
We are a holding company and do not have any material assets or operations other than ownership of equity interests in our subsidiaries. The agreements and instruments governing the debt of Sally Holdings and its subsidiaries contain material limitations on their ability to pay dividends and other restricted payments to us which, in turn, constitute material limitations on our ability to pay dividends and other payments to our stockholders.
Share Repurchase Programs
During the three months ended December 31, 2017 and 2016, we repurchased and subsequently retired approximately 3.8 million shares and 2.5 million shares of our common stock under Board approved share repurchase programs at an aggregate cost of $64.5 million and $67.0 million, respectively. We funded these share repurchases with existing cash balances, cash from operations and borrowings under the ABL facility. As of December 31, 2017, we had authorization of approximately $935.5 million of additional potential share repurchases remaining under the 2017 Share Repurchase Program. Future share repurchases of our common stock are expected to be funded with existing cash balances, funds generated by operations and funds available under the ABL facility.
Historical Cash Flows
Historically, our primary source of cash has been funds provided by operating activities and, when necessary, borrowings under our ABL facility. The primary uses of cash have been for share repurchases, capital expenditures, repayments and servicing of long-term debt and acquisitions.
Net Cash Provided by Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities during the three months ended December 31, 2017 increased $14.4 million to $104.2 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016, mainly due to net changes in the components of working capital of $9.9 million and a favorable impact of $9.8 million on our provision for income taxes resulting primarily from a lower U.S. federal statutory tax rate, partially offset by a decrease in earnings before provision for income taxes. As a result of U.S. Tax Reform, our U.S. federal statutory tax rate will be 24.5% for fiscal year 2018.
Net Cash Used by Investing Activities
Net cash used by investing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2017 increased $3.7 million to $31.7 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016. This increase reflects cash used for acquisitions, net of cash acquired, in the three months ended December 31, 2017 of $9.2 million, partially offset by lower capital expenditures of $5.5 million related primarily
to SBS store openings and lower investments in information technology upgrades in the three months ended December 31, 2017, compared to three months ended December 31, 2016, as information technology upgrade projects were completed.
Net Cash Used by Financing Activities
Net cash used by financing activities during the three months ended December 31, 2017 increased $3.8 million to $56.9 million, compared to the three months ended December 31, 2016, due primarily to a decrease in proceeds from exercises of stock options of $14.0 million. This decrease was partially offset by higher net debt proceeds, primarily from borrowings under the ABL facility, and by a decrease in cash paid for share repurchases of $2.6 million.
U.S. Tax Reform
On December 22, 2017, U.S. Tax Reform was signed into law. U.S. Tax Reform, among other things, (a) reduces the federal statutory tax rate for corporate taxpayers, (b) provides for a deemed repatriation of undistributed foreign earnings by U.S. taxpayers and makes other fundamental changes on how foreign earnings will be taxed by the U.S. and (c) otherwise modifies corporate tax rules in significant ways. We are currently assessing the potential additional impact of U.S. Tax Reform on our business and liquidity.
Long-Term Debt
At December 31, 2017, we had borrowings of $99.0 million outstanding under our ABL facility. In addition, we had $950.0 million of senior notes outstanding and a term loan B with an outstanding principal balance of $848.6 million. See “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations — Liquidity and Capital Resources - Long-term Debt” and Note 12 of the “Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements” in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017 for more information about our debt obligations.
We are currently in compliance with the agreements and instruments governing our debt, including our financial covenants.
Guarantor Financial Information
Our 2025 Senior Notes were issued by our wholly-owned subsidiaries, Sally Holdings LLC and Sally Capital Inc. (the “Issuers”). The notes are unsecured debt instruments guaranteed by us and certain of our wholly-owned domestic subsidiaries (together, the “Guarantors”) and have certain restrictions on the ability to comply withpay restrictive payments to Sally Beauty. The guarantees are joint and several, and full and unconditional. Certain other subsidiaries, including our foreign subsidiaries, do not serve as guarantors.

Share Repurchase Programs
Under our ongoing financial and operating performance, which in turn will be subject to economic conditions and to financial, market and competitive factors, many of which are beyondcurrent share repurchase program, we may from time-to-time repurchase our control. Further, our ability to comply with these covenants in future periods will also depend substantiallycommon stock on the pricing of our products, our success at implementing cost-reduction initiatives and our ability to successfully implement our overall business strategy.

During the three months ended December 31, 2017, capital expenditures2022, no shares were approximately $16.6 million, including amounts incurred but not paid atrepurchased in connection with our share repurchase program. During three months ended December 31, 2017 (approximately $2.5 million).2021, we repurchased 3.7 million shares of our common stock for $75.0 million under our share repurchase program. See Note 5, Stockholders’ Equity, for more information about our share repurchase program.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of our business in any of our contractual obligations since September 30, 2017.2022.
Off-Balance Sheet Financing Arrangements
At December 31, 20172022 and September 30, 2017,2022, we had no off-balance sheet financing arrangements other than operating leases incurred in the ordinary course of our business, and outstanding letters of credit related to inventory purchases and self-insurance programs.
Inflation
We do not believe inflation has had a material effect on our results of operations. However, during the past few years, we have experienced and an increase in labor and real estate costs in the U.S. Employee compensation and rent expenses represent our two most significant operating expense categories. A material increase in labor or real estate costs in the future, particularly for an extended period of time, could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations.
Critical Accounting Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities in the financial statements. Actual results may differ from these estimates. We believe these estimates and assumptions are reasonable. We consider accounting policies to be critical when they require us to make assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made and when different estimates that our management reasonably could have used have a material effect on the presentation of our financial condition, changes in financial condition or results of operations.
Our critical accounting estimates, as described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017, include the valuation of inventory, vendor rebates and concessions, retention of risk, income taxes, assessment of long-lived assets and intangible assets for impairment and share-based payments. There have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates or assumptions since September 30, 2017.2022.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Controls Evaluation and Related CEO and CFO Certifications. Our management, with the participation of our principal executive officer (“CEO”) and principal financial officer (“CFO”), conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as of December 31, 2017.2022. The controls evaluation was conducted by our Disclosure Committee, comprised of senior representatives from our finance, accounting, internal audit, and legal departments under the supervision of our CEO and CFO.
Certifications of our CEO and our CFO, which are required in accordance with Rule 13a-14 of the Exchange Act, are attached as exhibits to this report.Quarterly Report. This “Controls and Procedures” section includes the information concerning the controls evaluation referred to in the certifications and it should be read in conjunction with the certifications for a more complete understanding of the topics presented.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls. We do not expect that our disclosure controls and procedures will prevent all errors and all fraud. A system of controls and procedures, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable, not absolute, assurance that the objectives of the system are met. Because of the limitations in all such systems, no evaluation can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected. Furthermore, the design of any system of controls and procedures is based in part upon certain assumptions about the likelihood of future events, and there can be no assurance that any design will succeed in achieving its stated goals under all potential future conditions, regardless of how unlikely. Because of these inherent limitations in a cost-effective system of controls and procedures, misstatements or omissions due to error or fraud may occur and not be detected.
Scope of the Controls Evaluation. The evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures included a review of their objectives and design, our implementation of the controls and procedures and the effect of the controls and procedures on the information generated for use in this report.Quarterly Report. In the course of the evaluation, we sought to identify whether we had any data errors, control problems or acts of fraud and to confirm that appropriate corrective action, including process improvements, was being undertaken if needed. This type of evaluation is performed on a quarterly basis so that conclusions concerning the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures can be reported in our Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q and our Annual Reports on Form 10-K. Many of the components of our disclosure controls and procedures are also evaluated by our internal audit department, by our legal department and by personnel in our finance organization. The overall goals of these various evaluation activities are to monitor our disclosure controls and procedures on an ongoing basis and to maintain them as dynamic systems that change as conditions warrant.
Conclusions regarding Disclosure Controls. Based on the required evaluation of our disclosure controls and procedures, our CEO and CFO have concluded that, as of December 31, 2017,2022, we maintain disclosure controls and procedures that are effective in providing reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed by us in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our CEO and CFO, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting. During our most recent fiscal quarter, there have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II — OTHEROTHER INFORMATION
We are involved, from time to time, in various claims and lawsuits incidental to the conduct of our business in the ordinary course. We carry insurance coverage in such amounts in excess of our self-insured retention as we believe to be reasonable under the circumstances and that may or may not cover any or all of our liabilities in respect of these matters. We do not believe that the ultimate resolution of these matters will have a material adverse impact on our consolidated financial position, cash flows or results of operations.
We are subject to a number of U.S., federal, state and local laws and regulations, as well as the laws and regulations applicable in each foreign country or jurisdiction in which we do business. These laws and regulations govern, among other things, the composition, packaging, labeling and safety of the products we sell, the methods we use to sell these products and the methods we use to import these products. We believe that we are in material compliance with such laws and regulations, although no assurance can be provided that this will remain true going forward.
In addition to the other information set forth in this report,Quarterly Report, you should carefully consider the factors contained in Item 1A. “Risk Factors” in Part I of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2017,2022, which could materially affect our business, financial condition or future results. There have been no material changes from the risk factors disclosed in such Annual Report. The risks described in such Annual Report and herein are not the only risks facing our company.
