2Q22 Summary

Stefan Larsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented,

"Our Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger businesses continued to exhibit underlying strength in the second quarter, despite the increasingly challenging macroeconomic environment as the quarter progressed. We continued to execute very well in Europe and Asia, where countries not currently impacted by COVID are performing significantly above pre-pandemic levels, while in North America we continue to be impacted by ongoing supply chain pressures."

Mr. Larsson added, "In light of continued macroeconomic headwinds, we are intensifying our focus on driving growth through the disciplined execution of our brand-focused,direct-to-consumer and digitally-led PVH+ Plan, connecting Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER closer to the consumer than ever before. This intensified focus includes a strong emphasis on driving product strength and consumer engagement, significantly upgrading our supply chain capabilities to become more demand-driven, and simplifying how we work, resulting in substantial cost efficiencies. Our iconic global brands, Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER, have high consumer relevance, and we are in the early phase of the multi-year PVH+ journey to unlock their full potential."

Stefan Larsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented, "Our Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger businesses continued to exhibit underlying strength in the second quarter, despite the increasingly challenging macroeconomic environment as the quarter progressed. We continued to execute very well in Europe and Asia, where countries not currently impacted by COVID are performing significantly above pre-pandemic levels, while in North America we continue to be impacted by ongoing supply chain pressures."

We are leaning into this work by streamlining our organization, implementing new ways of working and leveraging our scale. These actions will enable us to reduce people costs in our global offices by approximately 10% by the end of 2023 and reinvest strategically in digital, supply chain and consumer engagement connected to the PVH+ Plan. Through our strengthened execution, we remain committed to delivering strong returns for our shareholders and achieving our

previously announced 2025 targets."

PVH+ Plan Cost Efficiency Action:

In line with the fifth growth driver of the PVH+ Plan - drive efficiencies and invest in growth - the Company is taking steps to streamline its organization and simplify its ways of working. The Company plans to reduce people costs in its global offices by approximately 10% by the end of 2023 to drive efficiencies and enable continued strategic investments to fuel growth, including in digital, supply chain and consumer engagement. The Company expects these reductions will generate annual cost savings of over $100 million, net of continued strategic people investments.

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 decreased 8% compared to the prior year period (flat on a constant currency basis), inclusive of a 6% negative impact related to (i) a 4% reduction resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction (as defined under the heading "Non-GAAP Exclusions") and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business and (ii) a 2% reduction resulting from the war in Ukraine, including closures of Company stores in Russia, the cessation of wholesale shipments to Russia and Belarus, and a reduction in wholesale shipments to Ukraine.
    The Company's underlying revenue growth compared to the prior year period, excluding the negative impacts of the items discussed above and foreign currency translation, was primarily driven by solid performance in its international businesses. The Company continued to experience supply chain and logistics disruptions globally and impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic in China, in addition to an increasingly challenging macroeconomic environment, particularly affecting its North America wholesale business.
    • Direct-to-Consumerrevenue decreased 5% compared to the prior year period (increased 3% on a constant currency basis), inclusive of a 3% reduction resulting from the exit of the Heritage Brands Retail business.
    • Wholesale revenue decreased 11% compared to the prior year period (decreased 3% on a constant currency basis), inclusive of a 5% reduction resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction.
    • Total Digital revenue decreased 7% compared to the prior year period (increased 4% on a constant currency basis). This includes the sales through the Company's digital commerce businesses and sales to the digital businesses of its traditional and pure play wholesale customers reflected in the Direct-to- Consumer and Wholesale revenues above. Digital penetration as a percentage of total revenue was approximately 25%.
  • Gross Margin was 57.2% as compared to 57.7% in the prior year period and included a negative impact of foreign currency translation of approximately 40 basis points.
  • Inventory increased 19% as of the end of the quarter compared to the prior year period. Inventory levels at the start of the second quarter were lean, particularly in North America, where delayed receipts of inventory due to supply chain delays negatively impacted revenue. The increase in ending inventory compared to the prior year period was due to a combination of (i) abnormally low inventory levels in all regions in the prior year period, (ii) a planned increase in core product to mitigate the ongoing supply chain and logistics disruptions, and (iii) elevated inventory levels in the North America wholesale business due to lower than expected demand. In-transit inventory increased over 50% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to extended lead times from ongoing supply chain and logistics disruptions.

Second Quarter Consolidated Results:

  • Revenue decreased 8% to $2.132 billion compared to the prior year period (flat on a constant currency basis).
    • Tommy Hilfiger revenue decreased 5% compared to the prior year period (increased 4% on a constant currency basis)
      • Tommy Hilfiger International revenue decreased 9% (increased 4% on a constant currency basis)
      • Tommy Hilfiger North America revenue increased 6%

    • Calvin Klein revenue decreased 1% compared to the prior year period (increased 6% on a constant currency basis)
      • Calvin Klein International revenue decreased 2% (increased 10% on a constant currency basis)
      • Calvin Klein North America revenue decreased 1%
    • Heritage Brands revenue decreased 44% compared to the prior year period, and includes a 37% decrease resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business.
  • Earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") on a GAAP basis was $177 million, inclusive of a $29 million negative impact due to foreign currency translation, compared to $279 million in the prior year period. EBIT on a GAAP basis included net costs of $34 million in the current quarter and costs of $15 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 $211 million, inclusive of a $29 million negative impact due to foreign currency translation, compared to $294 million in the prior year period. Excluding the negative impact of foreign currency translation, the decrease in EBIT on a non-GAAP basis was primarily driven by lower expenses in the prior year period, as stores in certain regions were closed and other stores were only beginning to re-open.
  • Earnings per share ("EPS") on a GAAP-basis was $1.72 compared to $2.51 in the prior year period. EPS on a non-GAAP basis was $2.08 compared to $2.72 in the prior year period. EPS on a GAAP basis for the current quarter included a $50 million pre-tax charge recorded in connection with the Company's decision to exit from its Russia business, primarily consisting of noncash asset impairments. EPS on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis for the current quarter included the negative impacts of (i) $0.35 per share related to foreign currency translation and (ii) $0.17 per share related to the Company's businesses in Russia, Belarus and Ukraine that have been significantly affected in the current quarter by the war in Ukraine, apart from the one-time noncash asset impairments discussed above. EPS on a GAAP basis for these periods also include the other 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 exclude these amounts.
  • Interest expense decreased to $20 million from $26 million in the prior year period.
  • Effective tax rate was 26.4% on a GAAP basis as compared to 28.1% in the prior year period. The effective tax rate was 26.9% on a non-GAAP basis as compared to 26.2% in the prior year period.

Stock Repurchase Program:

Delivering on its commitment under the PVH+ Plan to return excess cash to shareholders, the Company repurchased 2.0 million shares of its common stock for $124 million during the second quarter of 2022 ($2.0 billion since inception) under the $3.0 billion stock repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors.

2022 Outlook:

The Company has updated its full year 2022 revenue and EPS outlook to reflect its current expectations for the second half of 2022 based on the challenges in the macroeconomic environment and trends within the retail industry, including

  1. lower consumer demand as a result of inflationary pressures, as consumers reduce discretionary spend and certain wholesale customers take a more cautious approach, particularly in North America and to a lesser extent in Europe, and
  2. a more promotional environment, particularly in the North America wholesale business, due to elevated inventory levels industry-wide compared to consumer demand in the region.

The Company's updated full year 2022 outlook also reflects an increased negative impact of foreign currency translation and a reduction in the Company's effective income tax rate as a result of a favorable change in the mix of earnings between tax jurisdictions and recognition of certain tax credits.

There continues to be significant uncertainty in the current macroeconomic environment due to the supply chain and logistics disruptions and inflationary pressures globally, the war in Ukraine, the COVID-19 pandemic and foreign currency volatility. The Company's outlook assumes no material worsening of current conditions. The Company's 2022 results could differ materially from its current outlook.
