"Our multi-year performance leading up to the outbreak of COVID-19, which featured 11 consecutive quarters of positive comparable sales growth for our footwear businesses, and our results during the pandemic, put us in a position of strength. Our organization has done an outstanding job capitalizing on the recent opportunities to positively transform our business at a faster pace, including developing a more advanced, more profitable digital channel, reshaping the cost structure of our store fleet, and strengthening our consumer connections. With a strong balance sheet, we are well positioned to further invest in growth, and create even greater value for our shareholders."
Store Re-Opening Update
As of
First Quarter Review
Net sales for the first quarter of Fiscal 2022 increased 93% to
Overall sales were up 123% at Journeys, up 46% at Schuh, up 26% at Johnston & Murphy and up 84% at Licensed Brands. Overall sales were up 9% compared to the first quarter two years ago, with Journeys sales up 16% and Licensed Brands sales up 122%, partially offset by an 11% decrease in Schuh sales and a 35% decrease in Johnston & Murphy sales.
First quarter gross margin this year was 47.8%, up 480 basis points, compared with 43.0% last year and down 160 basis points compared with 49.4% in Fiscal 2020. The decrease as a percentage of sales as compared to Fiscal 2020 is due primarily to higher shipping and warehouse expense in our retail businesses as well as the mix of our businesses partially offset by decreased markdowns at Journeys. The higher shipping and warehouse expense in our retail businesses is driven by the increase in penetration of e-commerce as compared to Fiscal 2020.
Adjusted selling and administrative expense for the first quarter this year decreased 2,360 basis points as a percentage of sales compared with last year and decreased 340 basis points compared with Fiscal 2020. Such decrease is due primarily to reduced occupancy expense as well as reduced selling salaries partially offset by increased performance based compensation expense. The reduction in occupancy expense is driven by rent abatement agreements with landlords and government relief programs.
Genesco's GAAP operating income for the first quarter was
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 40.1% in Fiscal 2022 compared to 14.1% last year and 30.7% in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 35.7% in Fiscal 2022 compared to 26.8% last year and 31.3% in the first quarter of Fiscal 2020. The higher adjusted tax rate for this year as compared to last year reflects the inability to recognize a tax benefit for certain foreign losses and a higher mix of earnings in jurisdictions where the Company generates taxable income.

Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from the effects of COVID-19 on the Company's business, including COVID-19 case spikes in locations in which the Company operates, additional store closures due to COVID-19 and expected timing for store reopenings, weakness in store and shopping mall traffic, timing of in person back-to-work and back-to-school and sales with respect thereto, expectations regarding the COVID-19 vaccine rollout and acceptance, restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company's ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of civil disturbances; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; the imposition of tariffs on product imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; the Company's ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of COVID-19; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; the effects of the British decision to exit the
