Comparable store sales includes total charges to customers less any actual returns. The Company includes the change in allowance for anticipated sales returns applicable to comparable stores in the comparable store sales calculation.
THIRD QUARTER 2022
Net Sales
Net sales for the third quarter of 2022 increased $4.9 million, or 5.3%, over the third quarter of 2021. Sales increased at comparable stores by 5.3% during the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021, primarily due to an increase in average ticket driven by higher prices.Gross Profit
Gross profit increased $1.7 million, or 2.6%, in the third quarter of 2022 compared to the third quarter of 2021. The gross margin rate was 66.5% and 68.2% during the third quarter of 2022 and 2021, respectively. The decrease in the gross margin rate was primarily due to an increase in the cost of our products driven by vendor cost increases and higher international freight rates, which were partially offset by an increase in our selling prices.Selling, General and Administrative Expenses
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $0.7 million, or 1.1%, from $59.8 million in the third quarter of 2021 to $59.1 million in the third quarter of 2022, due primarily to a $0.7 million asset impairment charge incurred during the third quarter of 2021 and no asset impairment charges in the third quarter of 2022. In addition, the Company recognized a $0.8 million benefit related to a lease incentive, which was mostly offset by a $0.7 million increase in pay and benefits expenses during the third quarter of 2022.Inventory
Inventory increased by $11.5 million from $110.0 million at the end of the second quarter of 2022 to $121.5 million at the end of the third quarter of 2022. The higher inventory level is attributable to an increase in the cost of the products purchased from our suppliers as well as steps taken to accelerate certain purchases ahead of expected price increases by our suppliers.Capital Structure and Liquidity
As of September 30, 2022, our cash balance was $12.4 million and our debt balance was $30.4 million. The increase in our debt level during the quarter from $5.0 million at the end of the second quarter 2022 was primarily related to $15.5 million of share repurchases and an $11.5 million increase in inventory.On September 30, 2022, the Company and its operating subsidiary, The Tile Shop LLC, and certain subsidiaries of each entered into a Credit Agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and the lenders party thereto, including Fifth Third Bank (the “Credit Agreement”). The Credit Agreement provides the Company with a senior credit facility consisting of a $75.0 million revolving line of credit through September 30, 2027. Borrowings outstanding as of September 30, 2022 were SOFR-based interest rate loans. The SOFR-based interest rate was 4.54% on September 30, 2022.
Share Repurchase Plan
On August 15, 2022, the Board of Directors approved a $30.0 million share repurchase plan. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had repurchased 4.1 million shares under this plan for $15.5 million, inclusive of brokerage commissions, or an average price of $3.80 per share. Subsequent to the end of the quarter, the Company completed the share repurchase program. In total, 7.8 million shares were repurchased for $30.2 million, inclusive of brokerage commissions, or an average price of $3.87 per share.NON-GAAP INFORMATION

Balance sheet accounts represent the average account balance for the four quarters ended as of each of the balance sheet dates.
Non-GAAP Financial Measures
The Company calculates Adjusted EBITDA by taking net income calculated in accordance with GAAP, and adjusting for interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization, and stock-based compensation expense. Adjusted EBITDA margin is equal to Adjusted EBITDA divided by net sales. The Company calculates Pretax Return on Capital Employed by taking income (loss) from operations divided by capital employed. Capital employed equals total assets less accounts payable, income taxes payable, other accrued liabilities, lease liability and other long-term liabilities. Other companies may calculate both Adjusted EBITDA and Pretax Return on Capital Employed differently, limiting the usefulness of these measures for comparative purposes.
The Company believes that these non-GAAP measures of financial results provide useful information to management and investors regarding certain financial and business trends relating to the Company’s financial condition and results of operations. Company management uses these non-GAAP measures to compare Company performance to that of prior periods for trend analyses, for purposes of determining management incentive compensation, for budgeting and planning purposes and for assessing the effectiveness of capital allocation over time. These measures are used in monthly financial reports prepared for management and the Board of Directors. The Company believes that the use of these non-GAAP financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating ongoing operating results and trends and in comparing the Company’s financial measures with other specialty retailers, many of which present similar non-GAAP financial measures to investors.
Company management does not consider these non-GAAP measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with GAAP. The principal limitations of these non-GAAP financial measures are that they exclude significant expenses and income that are required by GAAP to be recognized in the Company’s consolidated financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgments by management about which expenses and income are excluded or included in determining these non-GAAP financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, management presents non-GAAP financial measures in connection with GAAP results. The Company urges investors to review the reconciliation of these non-GAAP financial measures to the comparable GAAP financial measures and not to rely on any single financial measure to evaluate the business.
