(1)Our fiscal year-end is the Saturday closest to January 31 based on a 52/53‑week year. Each fiscal year consists of four 13‑week quarters, with an extra week added onto the fourth quarter every five or six years.
(2)Fiscal 2017 includes 53 weeks; all other fiscal years reported include 52 weeks. Net sales for the 53rd week of fiscal 2017 were approximately $108.8 million.
(3)Income tax expense of $231.6 million in fiscal 2017 represents an effective tax rate of 29.4% compared to fiscal 2016 tax expense of $246.0 million and an effective tax rate of 37.5%. On December 22, 2017, the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act was enacted into law. This new legislation reduced the federal corporate tax rate to 21.0% effective January 1, 2018. In accordance with Section 15 of the Internal Revenue Code, the Company will utilize a blended rate of 33.7% for the fiscal 2017 tax year, by applying a prorated percentage of the number of days prior to and subsequent to the January 1, 2018 effective date.
(4)Comparable sales increase reflects sales for stores beginning on the first day of the 14th month of operation. Remodeled stores are included in comparable sales unless the store was closed for a portion of the current or comparable prior year.
(5)Total square footage per store is calculated by dividing total square footage at end of year by number of stores at end of year.
(6)Average total square footage represents a weighted average, which reflects the effect of opening stores in different months throughout the year.
(7)Retail sales per average total square foot was calculated, for all years presented, by dividing net sales for the year by the average square footage for those stores open during each year. In prior years we calculated this metric using total net sales, excluding e-commerce sales. The Company believes that including e-commerce sales more appropriately reflects the Company’s productivity. Net sales per average square foot calculated using total net sales, excluding e-commerce sales, would have been $495, $468, $424, $402, and $393, for fiscal years 2017, 2016, 2015, 2014, and 2013, respectively.
(8)The Company prospectively adopted Accounting Standards Update No. 2015‑17, Balance Sheet Classification of Deferred Taxes, in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2015. As a result of this adoption, current deferred tax assets were classified as non-current liabilities at February 3, 2018, January 28, 2017, and January 30, 2016.
