The Unaudited Adjusted Results should not be construed as an alternative to the reported results determined in accordance with GAAP. Our defi nition of adjusted results may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies. While it is not possible to predict future results, our management believes that the adjusted non-GAAP information is useful for the assessment of our ongoing operations. The Unaudited Adjusted Results should be read in conjunction with our Consolidated Financial Statements and the related Notes contained in our 2007 Form 10-K. The Unaudited Adjusted Results refl ect higher selling and administrative expenses as a result of the adjustment for certain proceeds received in fi scal 2007, as described and reconciled below ($ in thousands): KB Bankruptcy Proceeds We sold the KB Toys business in December 2000. As partial consideration for the sale of the KB Toys business, we received the Havens Corners Corporation Note (“HCC Note”). In January 2004, KB Toys fi led for bankruptcy and in separate charges included in selling and administrative expenses in fi scal 2003 and 2005, we reduced the balance receivable on the HCC Note. In fi scal 2007, we recorded income of $3,127 (net of tax) refl ecting the proceeds from the KB Toys bankruptcy trust which was recognized as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses for partial recovery of prior charges incurred against the HCC Note. Insurance Proceeds In fi scal 2007, we received insurance proceeds as recovery for damages related to hurricanes occurring in 2005 and recorded income of $2,974 (net of tax) as a reduction of selling and administrative expenses.

Steven S. Fishman Chairman, CEO and President Dear Shareholders: Last March, we outlined our Long-Range Plan. We detailed for you a three-year plan based on operating profi t growth from within our existing fl eet of stores. Fiscal 2007 was the fi rst year of that plan, and we’re proud to say we surpassed our goals. In fact, 2007 also surpassed the expectations that we set for the second year of the plan. During the year, we improved our fi nancial results, reinvested in our business, and continued to build the talent base of the organization for the future of our Company. Let me start by sharing that we measure success by producing operating profi t growth that is sustainable over the long-term — that’s the Big Lots way — no short-term gains or one-hit wonders.

    0 ucvbnmqwertyuiopåasdfghjklæøzxcv Executive Summary The master thesis at hand is a study of the Danish retail store chain Tiger and EQT’s decision to acquire a 70% stake in the company. The aim in this thesis is twofold. Firstly, a valuation of Zebra per June 30, 2015, will be conducted. Secondly, an analysis of the value creation during EQT’s ownership period is performed. The main objective in this thesis is to estimate the fair Enterprise Value per June 30, 2015, through a DCF-analysis. Based on Zebra’s strategic position and its historical financial performance, the expected future earnings and cash flow generations were forecasted and resulted in an Enterprise Value of DKK 8,864 million from which the Group accounted for DKK 8,350 million and the Japanese Joint Venture for DKK 515 million. Based on these figures, Zebra’s fair value of equity comprises DKK 7,789 million. Of this figure, EQT’s share of the equity amounts to DKK 5,219 million and DKK 2,874 million when correcting for the 50/50 owned subsidiaries. At EQT’s entry in the beginning of 2013, the purchase price for its stake was DKK 1,600 million, according to different sources, resulting in an IRR for EQT on 26.48% per year. This IRR is satisfying since it is above the expected return for Private Equity investments which historically has a threshold for an IRR on over 20% per year, and in more recent time a threshold between 12-17% per year. The objective in the second part of this thesis is to analyze how EQT has created or destroyed value during its ownership period based on an IRR for Zebra, excluding the Japanese Joint Venture.

  • Dollar General: Heavy on Organization, Light on Systems
    Dollar General: Heavy on Organization, Light on Systems Dollar General Corporation, headquartered in Goodlettsville, Tennessee, is an aggressive competitor in the deep discount retail industry, fighting for position with other stores such as Family Dollar, Fred's, 99 Cents Only Stores, and Dollar Tree, as well as with retailers such as Wal-Mart, Kmart, CVS, and Rite Aid. Dollar General stores offer a product line of general merchandise that includes housewares and cleaning supplies, health and beauty aids, clothing, packaged food, stationery, seasonal offerings, and other household consumables. The company has been operating since 1939. Dollar General's most recent annual sales figures total $8.6 billion, placing the chain at the top of the dollar store category of discount retailers. Somewhat surprisingly, the chain is not achieving its success by following the example set by other successful discount retailers. Whereas competitors such as 99 Cents Only Stores consider middle- and high-income customers to be key contributors to their profits, Dollar General caters specifically to customers with low, middle, and fixed incomes. According to data from AC Nielsen, in 2005 48% of Dollar General's customers earned less than $30,000 per year, and 26% earned less than $20,000. Dollar General has kept away from the big box supercenter store model used by Wal-Mart and Kmart. This type of store is often located on the outskirts of cities or outside of particular towns to draw customers from a broad area. When placing new stores, Dollar General prefers to locate them within communities, often targeting municipalities that are home to fewer than 20,000 residents.
