PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH] today reported its 2023 second quarter results and updated its full year outlook.

Stefan Larsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We delivered another strong quarter across both Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER driven by the disciplined execution of our long-term, brand-building growth plan, the PVH+ Plan. We generated double-digit revenue growth in our direct-to-consumer business in both our stores and in e-commerce, through our relentless focus on building brand desirability through product, consumer engagement and marketplace execution.”

Mr. Larsson added, “We are increasing our EPS outlook for the year, excluding restructuring charges, based on the confidence we have in our ability to execute in the back half of the year, while continuing to successfully navigate the macroeconomic environment. As we lean into the five key growth drivers of the PVH+ Plan, we’re continuing to gain traction by connecting our consumer-facing execution with an increasingly demand-driven operating engine to fuel long-term profitable growth.”

Zac Coughlin, Chief Financial Officer, said, “We drove another quarter of strong performance, and excluding restructuring charges, have raised our full year EPS outlook, while continuing to project a double-digit EBIT margin, underscoring the conviction we have in our ability to drive improved profitability. In addition, reflecting the confidence that we have in our ability to deliver sustainable long-term growth, we have increased our share repurchases. We now expect to repurchase up to $400 million of stock in 2023, having repurchased $200 million of stock in just the second quarter. We are well-positioned to achieve strong EPS growth in 2023 and generate significant and increasing cash flow to create value for shareholders.”

Non-GAAP Amounts:

Amounts stated to be on a non-GAAP basis exclude the items that are defined or described in greater detail near the end of this release under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions.” Amounts stated on a constant currency basis also are deemed to be on a non-GAAP basis. Reconciliations of amounts on a GAAP basis to amounts on a non-GAAP basis are presented after the Non-GAAP Exclusions section and identify and quantify all excluded items.

Second Quarter Review:

• Revenue increased 4% compared to the prior year period (increased 2% on a constant currency basis) driven by growth in both the Tommy Hilfiger and Calvin Klein businesses. The increase included solid performance in the Company’s international businesses, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, including over 20% growth in local currency in China reflecting continued recovery after the lifting of COVID restrictions in the fourth quarter of 2022, and continued growth in Europe in euros. The increase also reflected continued growth in the North America direct-to-consumer business.
  • Direct-to-consumer revenue increased 11% compared to the prior year period (increased 10% on a constant currency basis), with growth in both the Company’s owned and operated stores and owned and operated digital commerce business in all regions.
  • Wholesale revenue decreased 3% compared to the prior year period (decreased 6% on a constant currency basis) as wholesale customers continue to take a cautious approach.
  • Owned and operated digital commerce revenue increased 12% compared to the prior year period (increased 11% on a constant currency basis). The strong growth in the Company’s digital commerce business was more than offset by a decrease in wholesale sales to traditional retailers’ ecommerce businesses and pure players, resulting in a 10% decrease in total digital revenue compared to the prior year period (decreased 12% on a constant currency basis). Total digital penetration as a percentage of total revenue was approximately 20%.
• Gross margin was 57.6% compared to 57.2% in the prior year period. The increase reflects benefits from a favorable shift in regional and channel mix, lower freight costs, and price increases, partially offset by higher product costs, including an approximately 120 basis point negative impact on inventory costs due to foreign currency exchange rates.
• Inventory increased 6% compared to the prior year period. The 6% increase is in line with projected sales growth and reflects a sequential improvement as compared to the 24% year-over-year increase in the first quarter of 2023.

Second Quarter Consolidated Results:

• Revenue increased 4% to $2.207 billion compared to the prior year period (increased 2% on a constant currency basis).
  • Tommy Hilfiger revenue increased 6% compared to the prior year period (increased 3% on a constant currency basis).
    • Tommy Hilfiger International revenue increased 6% (increased 3% on a constant currency basis).
    • Tommy Hilfiger North America revenue increased 4%.
  • Calvin Klein revenue increased 3% compared to the prior year period (increased 2% on a constant currency basis)
    • Calvin Klein International revenue increased 11% (increased 9% on a constant currency basis).
    • Calvin Klein North America revenue decreased 9% primarily driven by a decrease in the wholesale business.
  • Heritage Brands revenue decreased 11% compared to the prior year period.
• Earnings before interest and taxes (“EBIT”) on a GAAP basis was $143 million, inclusive of a $5 million positive impact due to foreign currency translation, compared to $177 million in the prior year period. EBIT on a GAAP basis included costs of $39 million in the current quarter and net costs of $34 million in the prior year period described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. EBIT on a non-GAAP basis for these periods excludes these amounts.
  
  
  
  EBIT on a non-GAAP basis was $182 million, inclusive of a $5 million positive impact due to foreign currency translation, compared to $211 million in the prior year period. The revenue increase discussed above was more than offset by (i) the approximately 120 basis point negative impact on inventory costs due to foreign currency exchange rates, discussed above and (ii) overall higher expenses driven by a planned increase in investments to drive the Company’s strategic initiatives, including an increase in marketing, compared to the prior year period. The Company continues to take a disciplined approach to managing expenses, driving cost efficiencies while making targeted investments to drive its strategic initiatives.
• Earnings per share (“EPS”)
  • GAAP basis: $1.50 compared to $1.72 in the prior year period.
  • Non-GAAP basis: $1.98 compared to $2.08 in the prior year period.

EPS on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis for the second quarter of 2023 includes the positive impact of $0.05 per share related to foreign currency translation.

EPS on a GAAP basis for these periods also included the amounts for the applicable period described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. EPS on a non-GAAP basis for these periods excluded these amounts.

• Interest expense increased to $24 million from $20 million in the prior year period primarily due to higher interest rates.
• Effective tax rate was 21.3% on a GAAP basis as compared to 26.4% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate was 21.6% on a non-GAAP basis as compared to 26.9% in the prior year period.

Stock Repurchase Program:

Delivering on its commitment under the PVH+ Plan to return excess cash to stockholders, the Company repurchased 2.4 million shares of its common stock for $200 million during the second quarter of 2023.

2023 Outlook:

Full Year 2023 Guidance

Non-GAAP Exclusions:

The discussions in this release that refer to non-GAAP amounts exclude the following:

• Pre-tax restructuring costs of approximately $60 million incurred and expected to be incurred in 2023 consisting principally of severance related to actions taken in July 2023 and expected to be taken in the third quarter of 2023 under the plans initially announced in August 2022 to reduce people costs in the Company’s global offices by approximately 10% by the end of 2023, of which $39 million was incurred in the second quarter and approximately $21 million is expected to be incurred in the third quarter.
• Pre-tax gain of $78 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2022 related to the recognized actuarial gain on retirement plans.
• Pre-tax noncash goodwill impairment charge of $417 million recorded in the third quarter of 2022, which was non-operational and driven by a significant increase in discount rates.
• Pre-tax restructuring costs of $20 million incurred in 2022, consisting principally of severance related to initial actions under the plans announced in August 2022 to reduce people costs in the Company’s global offices by approximately 10% by the end of 2023, of which $17 million was incurred in the third quarter and $4 million was incurred in the fourth quarter.
• Pre-tax net costs of $43 million recorded in 2022 in connection with the Company’s decision to exit from its Russia business, primarily consisting of noncash asset impairments and a gain on contract terminations, of which $50 million of charges were recorded in the second quarter and an $8 million gain was recorded in the fourth quarter.
• Pre-tax gain of $16 million recorded in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the sale of the Company’s equity investment in Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V.
• Estimated tax effects associated with the above pre-tax items, which are based on the Company’s assessment of deductibility. In making this assessment, the Company evaluated each item that it had identified above as a non-GAAP exclusion to determine if such item was (i) taxable or tax deductible, in which case the tax effect was taken at the applicable income tax rate in the local jurisdiction, or (ii) non-taxable or non-deductible, in which case the Company assumed no tax effect.

The Company presents constant currency revenue information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, because it is a global company that transacts business in multiple currencies and reports financial information in U.S. dollars. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amounts reported by the Company in U.S. dollars with respect to its foreign revenues and can have a significant impact on the Company’s reported revenues. The Company calculates constant currency revenue information by translating its foreign revenues for the relevant period into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable prior year period (rather than at the actual exchange rates in effect during the relevant period).

The Company presents non-GAAP financial measures, including constant currency revenue information, as a supplement to its GAAP results. The Company believes presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors, as it provides information to assess how its businesses performed excluding the effects of non-recurring and non-operational amounts and the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates, as applicable, and (i) facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that it believes are not comparable between periods and (ii) assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance. The Company believes that investors often look at ongoing operations of an enterprise as a measure of assessing performance. The Company uses its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s Board of Directors and others. The Company’s results excluding non-recurring and non-operational amounts are also the basis for certain incentive compensation calculations. Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or as superior to, the Company’s operating performance calculated in accordance with GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures presented may not be comparable to similarly described measures reported by other companies.

PVH CORP.

Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes it is useful to investors to present its results for the periods ended July 30, 2023 and July 31, 2022 on a non-GAAP basis by excluding (i) the restructuring costs incurred in the second quarter of 2023 related to actions taken in July 2023 under the plans initially announced in August 2022 to reduce people costs in the Company’s global offices by approximately 10% by the end of 2023 (the “2022 cost savings initiative”), consisting principally of severance; (ii) the costs incurred in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the Company’s decision to exit from its retail business in Russia and the cessation of its wholesale operations in Russia and Belarus (the “Russia business exit”), consisting of noncash asset impairments, contract termination and other costs, and severance; (iii) the gain recorded in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the sale of the Company’s equity investment in Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V. (the “Karl Lagerfeld transaction”); and (iv) the tax effects associated with the foregoing pre-tax items. The Company excludes these amounts because it deems them to be non-recurring or non-operational and believes that their exclusion (i) facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that it believes are not comparable between periods, thereby permitting management to evaluate performance and investors to make decisions based on the ongoing operations of the Company, and (ii) assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of the Company’s operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management’s evaluation of business performance. The Company believes that investors often look at ongoing operations of an enterprise as a measure of assessing performance. The Company uses its results excluding these amounts to evaluate its operating performance and to discuss its business with investment institutions, the Company’s Board of Directors and others. The Company’s results excluding the items described above are also the basis for certain incentive compensation calculations. The non-GAAP measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, the Company’s operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The information presented on a non-GAAP basis may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

The following table presents the non-GAAP measures that are discussed in this release. Please see Tables 1 through 5 for the reconciliations of the GAAP amounts to amounts on a non-GAAP basis.
