Insights

G-III Apparel Group's Q2 FY2025 results show resilience in a challenging retail environment. Despite a 2% decrease in net sales to $644.8 million, the company exceeded guidance with non-GAAP EPS of $0.52, up from $0.40 last year. This outperformance, driven by strong performance of owned brands like DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld, led to an increased full-year EPS guidance.

The 24% reduction in inventory to $610.5 million is a positive sign of improved inventory management. The new Converse license agreement presents a growth opportunity in the active lifestyle category. However, investors should monitor the $60 million in incremental expenses for new brand launches, which could pressure margins in the short term.

Overall, G-III's diversified brand portfolio and strategic initiatives position it well for long-term growth, but near-term macroeconomic uncertainties remain a concern.

G-III's Q2 results reflect the company's ability to navigate a complex retail landscape. The success of owned brands DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld, growing double-digits collectively, demonstrates the strength of G-III's brand management strategy. The Donna Karan relaunch's success further validates this approach.

The new Converse license is a strategic move to tap into the growing active lifestyle market, potentially opening new distribution channels and attracting a younger demographic. This diversification could help mitigate risks associated with any single brand or market segment.

While the 3% projected revenue growth for FY2025 is modest, the raised EPS guidance suggests improved profitability. The company's focus on operational discipline and agility in response to market conditions is commendable. However, the uncertain macroeconomic environment remains a key risk factor to monitor.

G-III's Q2 performance underscores its resilience in a challenging retail environment. The company's strategic focus on owned brands is paying off, with DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld driving growth. The successful Donna Karan relaunch demonstrates G-III's ability to revitalize and manage iconic fashion brands effectively.

The new Converse license is a smart move, allowing G-III to leverage its core capabilities in a high-growth segment. This expansion into active lifestyle apparel could help offset potential softness in other categories.

The company's inventory reduction of 24% is particularly noteworthy, indicating improved supply chain management and alignment with consumer demand. This lean inventory position could lead to better margins and reduced markdown risk going forward.

While macroeconomic uncertainties persist, G-III's diverse brand portfolio and operational discipline position it well to navigate potential headwinds in the retail sector.

Outlook

The Company today updated its outlook for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2025. This outlook continues to anticipate approximately $60.0 million in incremental expenses, primarily associated with the launches of Donna Karan, Nautica and Halston. Approximately 65% of these expenses are related to marketing initiatives to support the Donna Karan and DKNY brands. The remaining costs are principally related to technology and talent to expand operational capabilities.

Fiscal 2025

Net sales are expected to increase by approximately 3% to $3.20 billion (unchanged to prior guidance), compared to net sales of $3.10 billion for fiscal 2024.

Net income is expected to be between $179.0 million and $184.0 million (prior $170.0 million and $175.0 million), or diluted earnings per share between $3.94 and $4.04 (prior $3.58 and $3.68). This compares to net income of $176.2 million, or $3.75 per diluted share, for fiscal 2024.

Non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2025 is expected to be between $180.0 million and $185.0 million (prior $170.0 and $175.0 million), or diluted earnings per share between $3.95 and $4.05 (prior $3.58 and $3.68). This compares to non-GAAP net income of $189.8 million, or diluted earnings per share of $4.04 for fiscal 2024.

Adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2025 is expected to be between $305.0 million and $310.0 million (prior $295.0 million and $300.0 million) compared to adjusted EBITDA of $324.1 million in fiscal 2024.

Net interest expense is expected to be approximately $24.0 million, including a $1.7 million non-GAAP charge related to the write-off of deferred financing costs associated with the redemption of our senior secured notes. We estimate a tax rate of 28.5% for fiscal 2025.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025

Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 are expected to increase by approximately 3% to $1.10 billion compared to $1.07 billion in the same period last year.

Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 is expected to be in the range of $97.0 million and $102.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $2.18 and $2.28. This compares to net income of $127.6 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.74, in last year’s third quarter.

Non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2025 is expected to be between $98.0 million and $103.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $2.20 and $2.30. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $129.6 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.78, for the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
