Insights

PVH's $500 million accelerated share repurchase (ASR) represents a substantial capital return mechanism that will remove approximately 14% of outstanding shares from the market. This is a significant commitment given it represents roughly 13.5% of the company's current market capitalization.

The financing structure demonstrates prudent balance sheet management—using $350 million cash on hand while limiting short-term debt to $150 million with plans to eliminate this borrowing by fiscal year-end. This approach preserves financial flexibility while still delivering substantial shareholder value.

What's particularly telling is management's explicit acknowledgment that they view the stock as undervalued relative to long-term growth potential under the PVH+ Plan. The accelerated format (versus a traditional gradual buyback) signals urgency to capture this perceived value gap.

For investors, this creates several positive effects: immediate EPS accretion through share count reduction, improved capital efficiency metrics, and a strong signal of management confidence in future cash generation. The remaining $1.3 billion authorization after this transaction provides additional flexibility for future returns.

The company's ability to execute this size repurchase while maintaining investment grade credit ratings demonstrates robust financial health and disciplined capital allocation prioritizing both growth investments and shareholder returns.

PVH expects to pay $500 million upfront and repurchase approximately 14% of outstanding shares. Accelerated share repurchase expected to be completed in the third quarter of fiscal year 2025

Transaction to be funded by cash on hand and short-term debt, which the Company expects to repay by the end of fiscal year 2025

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH] (the “Company”) today announced that it intends to enter into accelerated share repurchase (“ASR”) agreements with one or more dealers to repurchase $500 million of the Company’s common stock. The agreements are being entered into under the Company’s existing $5.0 billion stock repurchase authorization, of which $1.8 billion was available for share repurchases as of February 2, 2025, the end of its most recent fiscal year. The Company intends to enter into the agreements in the coming days.

This ASR equates to a repurchase of approximately 7.7 million shares of the Company’s common stock based on the closing stock price on March 31, 2025, which represents approximately 14% of the Company’s weighted average diluted shares outstanding during the fourth quarter of its 2024 fiscal year. The total number of shares ultimately repurchased through the ASR will be determined upon final settlement and will be based on the volume-weighted average price of PVH’s common stock during the term of the ASR agreements, less a discount, and subject to customary adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR agreements.

Zac Coughlin, Chief Financial Officer, said, “Over the course of the last several years we have continuously strengthened our balance sheet, driven by our robust cash flow generation. We have demonstrated a prudent and balanced approach to capital allocation, including first and foremost investing in our growth initiatives – all while reinforcing our strong commitment to our investment grade credit ratings. The current valuation of our stock relative to our long-term growth potential to unlock the power of our global iconic brands, Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER, through our PVH+ Plan, offers a unique opportunity to return significant capital to shareholders.”

The Company expects to pay the dealers the repurchase amount and receive from them an initial delivery of approximately 5.4 million shares of its common stock, representing approximately 70% of the estimated total repurchases, shortly after the agreements are signed. The Company anticipates that the final settlement will occur during the third quarter of fiscal 2025.

The Company expects to use a combination of approximately $350 million of cash on hand and up to $150 million short-term debt to finance the ASR. As a result of its strong cash flow generation, the Company expects to repay this short-term debt by the end of fiscal year 2025, resulting in debt levels ending the year in-line with fiscal year-end 2024.
