In essence an operating model describes how an organization operates across both business and technology domains. The Operating Model describes what is important for the organization. ." As reported on Sept. 2, second-quarter revenue increased 13 percent to $6.1 billion, compared with revenue of $5.4 billion for the second quarter of fiscal 2004. The revenue increase reflected the addition of 75 new stores in the past 12 months and a comparable store sales gain of 4.3 percent. The gross profit rate was 25.5 percent of revenue for the second quarter, a modest improvement compared with the gross profit rate for the second quarter of the prior year. The increase was driven by a more profitable revenue mix and a less promotional environment in the international segment, compared with the second quarter of fiscal 2004. Reward Zone, Best Buy's customer loyalty program launched in July July: see month. 2003, continued to contribute to the company's revenue growth for the quarter. Additionally, Reward Zone reduced the gross profit rate by 0.8 percent of revenue for the second quarter, compared with 0.4 percent of revenue for the prior year's quarter. The company's selling, general and administrative expense rate was 21.6 percent of revenue for the second quarter, compared with 21.2 percent of revenue for the prior year's second quarter. The increase in the expense rate was driven by provisions for asset impairment Impairment 1. A reduction in a company's stated capital. 2. The total capital that is less than the par value of the company's capital stock. Notes: 1. This is usually reduced because of poorly estimated losses or gains. 2. charges, costs associated with outsourcing the company's information technology function, and the preliminary settlement of pending litigation, as previously reported, which in the aggregate increased the expense rate by 0.7 percent of revenue.

These costs were partially offset by expense leverage associated with the 13-percent revenue gain and ongoing cost-saving initiatives.

The decline in the operating income rate was principally related to the asset impairment and litigation charges previously described. The company reported net interest income of approximately $1 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2005. The cash position increased to $2.0 billion at the end of the second quarter of fiscal 2005, versus $1.7 billion at the end of the same quarter of fiscal 2004. The company's effective income tax rate for the second quarter declined to 38.1 percent, compared with 38.3 percent for the same period one year ago, primarily due to permanent benefits associated with international operations Internal Operations (I.O., IO or I/O) is a fictional American Intelligence Agency in Wildstorm comics.

Company Lab Stores Continue to Outperform Outperform An analyst recommendation meaning a stock is expected to do slightly better than the market return. Notes: Exact definitions vary by brokerage, but in general this rating is better than neutral and worse than buy or strong buy. ; Pilot Stores Prepare to Roll The company said that its 30-plus customer centricity lab stores collectively continued to outperform other U.S. Best Buy stores in terms of the comparable store sales gain and the gross profit rate. The lab stores collectively had a comparable store sales gain modestly more than double that of other U.S. Best Buy stores, which in turn outperformed competitors. The lab stores' gross profit rate collectively was approximately 0.5 percent of revenue higher than the rate of other U.S. Best Buy stores. "We view customer centricity as a core competency A core competency is something that a firm can do well and that meets the following three conditions specified by Hamel and Prahalad (1990):

The experience of converting this large group of stores was designed to assist the company in determining the rollout plans and pace for future conversions, which are not expected to be determined until the end of the fiscal year.

Company Expects Q3 Diluted EPS of 41 to 47 Cents, and $2.80-$2.93 for Fiscal Year For the third quarter of fiscal 2005, which ends on Nov. 27, 2004, Best Buy anticipates earnings from continuing operations in the range of 41 to 47 cents per diluted share, an increase of approximately 19 percent from the comparable prior year period, driven by a comparable store sales gain of 3 percent to 5 percent. For the third quarter of fiscal 2004, the company had earnings from continuing operations of 37 cents per diluted share. Currently, the mean analyst earnings estimate for the fiscal third quarter is 44 cents per diluted share. Best Buy also reiterated its earnings guidance for fiscal 2005. The company said it continues to expect revenue of approximately $27.5 billion and earnings from continuing operations increasing 15 to 20 percent for fiscal 2005, to a range of $2.80 to $2.93 per diluted share, including the charge. This fiscal 2005 guidance assumes the opening of approximately 70 new stores, a gain in comparable store sales of 4 percent to 6 percent, and an improvement in the operating income rate for the fiscal year of approximately 0.2 percent of revenue, driven primarily by a lower SG&A rate. The mean of analyst earnings estimates for the fiscal year is $2.90 per diluted share. In addition, the company said it now anticipates capital expenditures of $550 million to $600 million for fiscal 2005, less than originally planned.
