“In this inflationary cycle, we are benefiting from consumers choosing the ease of one-stop shopping with Target, Walmart, and Amazon, where they can purchase groceries, diapers, baby formula, and children’s apparel at one location. Carter’s has an unparalleled competitive advantage as the largest supplier of young children’s apparel to these retailers.

“Our consolidated sales have been under pressure since inflation rose to historic levels in 2022 because those we serve, families raising young children, have been under financial pressure and have reduced their discretionary spending where possible. Carter’s is working its way through a historic and challenging inflationary period. We plan to use this down cycle to strengthen our leading market position as the best-selling national brand in young children’s apparel.
“Our growth strategies are focused on the fundamentals, which include:
- elevating the style and value of our product offerings;
- improving our marketing capabilities and effectiveness; and
- leveraging our unparalleled multi-channel market presence to extend the reach of our brands.
“With the strength of our high-margin business model and cash flow generation, we have the resources to invest in our growth strategies, which we expect will better position us to return to growth when market conditions improve.
“Given our better than expected performance in the third quarter, we are reaffirming our previous outlook for sales and profitability this year.”

Adjustments to Reported GAAP Results
In addition to the results presented in this earnings release in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided adjusted, non-GAAP financial measurements, as presented below. The Company believes these non-GAAP financial measurements provide a meaningful comparison of the Company’s results and afford investors a view of what management considers to be the Company’s underlying performance. These measurements are presented for informational purposes only.

Dividends: In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company paid a cash dividend of
per common share totaling$0.80 . In the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, the Company paid cash dividends totaling$28.8 million . Future payments of quarterly dividends will be at the discretion of the Company’s Board of Directors based on a number of factors, including the Company’s future financial performance and other considerations.$87.3 million -
Share repurchases: During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased and retired approximately 0.3 million shares of its common stock for
at an average price of$16.7 million per share. In the first three quarters of fiscal 2024, the Company repurchased and retired approximately 0.7 million shares of its common stock for$61.01 at an average price of$50.5 million per share. All shares were repurchased in open market transactions pursuant to applicable regulations for such transactions.

OshKosh B’Gosh Pension Plan
During the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company announced the offering of a single-sum payment option to certain participants in the frozen OshKosh B’Gosh, Inc. Pension Plan (the “pension plan”), which commenced on June 1, 2024 and closed on July 15, 2024. Payouts from pension plan assets totaling
Additionally, the Board of Directors authorized the termination of the pension plan, with an anticipated effective date of November 30, 2024. The Company may be required to make a contribution to fully fund the plan for termination prior to the purchase of a group annuity contract to transfer its remaining liabilities under the pension plan. The contribution amount will depend upon the nature and timing of participant settlements and prevailing market conditions. The Company expects to recognize a non-cash charge upon settlement of the pension plan’s obligations in the second half of fiscal 2025. The Company has the right to change the effective date of the termination date or revoke the decision to terminate, but it has no current intent to do so.
2024 Business Outlook
We do not reconcile forward-looking adjusted operating income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, or free cash flow to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations that are not within our control due to factors described below, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future operating income, diluted EPS, or operating cash flow, the most directly comparable GAAP metrics to adjusted operating income, adjusted diluted earnings per share, and free cash flow, respectively.
For fiscal year 2024, the Company is reaffirming its previously-provided guidance for net sales and adjusted operating income and is increasing its outlook for adjusted diluted earnings per share based on its revised expectations for lower borrowing costs and a lower effective tax rate. Accordingly, for fiscal year 2024 the Company now projects approximately:
-
to$2.78 5 billion in net sales ($2.82 5 billion in fiscal 2023);$2.95 billion -
to$240 million in adjusted operating income ($260 million in fiscal 2023);$328 million -
to$4.70 in adjusted diluted earnings per share, excluding a non-cash, pre-tax partial pension plan settlement charge of$5.15 (previous guidance$0.9 million to$4.60 ;$5.05 in fiscal 2023);$6.19 -
Operating cash flow in excess of
($200 million in fiscal 2023); and$529 million -
Capital expenditures of
(previous guidance$65 million ;$75 million in fiscal 2023).$60 million

- comparable gross profit margin;
- increased SG&A, reflecting growth-related investments and inflation, partially offset by cost reduction initiatives;
- lower net interest expense;
- lower effective tax rate; and
- lower share count.
For the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company projects approximately:
-
to$800 million in net sales ($840 million in Q4 fiscal 2023);$858 million -
to$70 million in adjusted operating income ($90 million in Q4 fiscal 2023); and$136 million -
to$1.32 in adjusted diluted earnings per share ($1.72 in Q4 fiscal 2023).$2.76
Our projections for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 assume (comparisons vs. prior year unless otherwise noted):

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental financial measures that are not defined or prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes, and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items described in footnotes (a) - (c) to the table above.
We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors, and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These measures also afford investors a view of what management considers to be the Company's core performance.
The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA instead of net income or cash flows from operations has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent net income or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. While EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements, these terms are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us for working capital, debt service and other purposes.

The Company evaluates its net sales on both an “as reported” and a “constant currency” basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that occurred between the comparative periods. Constant currency net sales results are calculated by translating current period net sales in local currency to the
