PVH Corp. Reports 2022 First Quarter Results Above Guidance

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH] reported its 2022 first quarter results.

CEO Comments:

Stefan Larsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented “We are pleased with our first quarter performance in which we delivered strong underlying top-line growth and beat our guidance. This performance is just the beginning of our multi-year journey to execute the PVH+ Plan – our strategic growth plan that we unveiled at our recent Investor Day. The plan is centered around winning with the consumer through our brand-focused, direct-to-consumer and digitally-led approach across each of our regions to unlock the full potential of our two global iconic brands, Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER.”

Mr. Larsson added, “Looking ahead, we are encouraged by the sustained momentum of our overall underlying trends, and remain confident in our full year outlook. While we are mindful of and continue to navigate through the global macroeconomic headwinds, we are proactively managing our business to deliver on our commitments, drive growth and create long-term value.”

CFO Comments:

Zac Coughlin, Chief Financial Officer, said, “For the first quarter, we delivered both revenue and EPS above our guidance. Through the PVH+ Plan, we are leaning into and flexing our business to accelerate growth and realize efficiencies – balanced across our regions and brands – to drive strong profitability, significant cash flow and attractive returns for our shareholders.”

PVH+ Plan:

At its April 2022 Investor Day, the Company introduced the PVH+ Plan, its multi-year strategic plan to drive brand-, digital- and direct-to-consumer-led growth to accelerate financial performance. The PVH+ Plan builds on the core strengths of PVH and connects Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER closer to the consumer than ever before through five key growth drivers: (1) win with product, (2) win with consumer engagement, (3) win in the digitally-led marketplace, (4) develop a demand- and data-driven operating model, and (5) drive efficiencies and invest in growth. These five foundational drivers apply to each of the Company’s businesses and are activated in the regions to meet the unique expectations of our consumers around the world and deliver long-term sustainable profitable growth.

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.

First Quarter Review:

• Revenue increased 2% compared to the prior year period (increased 7% on a constant currency basis) and reflected continued momentum in Europe. The Company continued to experience supply chain and logistics disruptions globally, as well as the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic in China. Revenue in the current quarter reflected (i) a 5% 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 1% reduction resulting from the war in Ukraine, including the Company’s decision to temporarily close its stores and pause commercial activities in Russia and Belarus, as well as a reduction in wholesale shipments to Ukraine.
  • Direct-to-Consumer revenue increased 4% compared to the prior year period (increased 9% on a constant currency basis), inclusive of a 6% reduction from the exit of the Heritage Brands Retail business. Directly operated digital commerce decreased 14% (decreased 9% on a constant currency basis) as compared to the exceptionally strong performance of 66% growth in the prior year period attributable, in part, to temporary store closures in the prior year period.

• Gross Margin was 58.4% as compared to 59.1% in the prior year period, as more full price selling was more than offset by higher freight costs, including an increase in air freight to mitigate ongoing supply chain and logistics delays.
• Inventory decreased 4% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates as compared to the prior year period, as well as a result of the Heritage Brands transaction and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business. In-transit inventory increased over 10% compared to the prior year period, primarily due to ongoing supply chain and logistics disruptions.

First Quarter Consolidated Results:

• Revenue increased 2% to $2.123 billion compared to the prior year period (increased 7% on a constant currency basis).
  • Tommy Hilfiger revenue increased 2% compared to the prior year period (increased 7% on a constant currency basis), including a 2% decrease (5% increase on a constant currency basis) in Tommy Hilfiger International revenue and a 15% increase in Tommy Hilfiger North America revenue.
  • Calvin Klein revenue increased 13% compared to the prior year period (increased 17% on a constant currency basis), including a 7% increase (13% increase on a constant currency basis) in Calvin Klein International revenue and a 26% increase in Calvin Klein North America revenue.
  • Heritage Brands revenue decreased 31% compared to the prior year period, and includes a 42% decrease resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business.

• Earnings before interest and taxes was $210 million compared to $197 million on a GAAP basis and $249 million on a non-GAAP basis in the prior year period. Earnings before interest and taxes on a GAAP basis for the prior year period included costs of $51 million described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. Earnings before interest and taxes on a non-GAAP basis for the prior year period excluded these amounts. The decrease in earnings before interest and taxes on a non-GAAP basis was primarily driven by the benefit to expenses in the prior year period resulting from the significant percentage of store closures, including lower marketing and investments, partially offset by the revenue increase discussed above.
• Earnings per share was $1.94 compared to $1.38 on a GAAP basis and $1.92 on a non-GAAP basis in the prior year period. Earnings per share for the current quarter included the negative impacts of (i) $0.18 per share related to foreign currency translation, primarily due to the stronger U.S. dollar, and (ii) $0.10 per share related to the war in Ukraine. Earnings per share on a GAAP basis for the prior year period included the amounts described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. Earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis for the prior year period excluded these amounts.
• Interest expense decreased to $22 million from $29 million in the prior year period.
• Effective tax rate was 29.4% as compared to 40.7% on a GAAP basis and 36.8% on a non-GAAP basis in the prior year period.

Stock Repurchase Program:

The Company repurchased 1.2 million shares of its common stock for $100 million during the first quarter of 2022 ($1.9 billion since inception) under the $3.0 billion stock repurchase program authorized by the Board of Directors.

2022 Outlook:

The Company is providing its 2022 outlook despite the significant uncertainty due to the war in Ukraine and its broader macroeconomic implications, inflationary pressures globally, as well as the continued uncertainty due to the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition, supply chain and logistics disruptions globally have resulted in and are expected to continue to result in delivery delays to wholesale customers and delayed inventory availability for the Company’s stores and digital commerce businesses. The Company’s outlook assumes no material worsening of current conditions. The Company’s 2022 results could differ materially from its current outlook.

Full Year 2022 Guidance

• Revenue is projected to increase 1% to 2% as compared to 2021 (increase 6% to 7% on a constant currency basis), which reflects (i) a 2% reduction resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business and (ii) a 2% reduction resulting from the war in Ukraine.
• Operating margin is projected to be approximately 10%.
• Earnings per share on a GAAP basis is projected to be approximately $9.20 compared to $13.25 in 2021. Earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis is projected to be approximately $9.00 compared to $10.15 in 2021. The 2022 earnings per share projections include the estimated negative impacts of (i) approximately $0.85 per share related to foreign currency translation, primarily due to the stronger U.S. dollar, and (ii) approximately $0.60 per share related to the war in Ukraine. Earnings per share on a GAAP basis for these periods include the amounts for the applicable period described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. Earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis exclude these amounts.
• Interest expense is projected to decrease to approximately $90 million compared to $104 million in 2021 primarily due to the impact of voluntary debt repayments made in 2021.
• Effective tax rate is projected to increase as compared to 2021 and to be in a range of 28.5% to 29.5%.

Second Quarter 2022 Guidance

• Revenue is projected to decrease approximately 4% to 3% compared to the prior year period (increase approximately 2% to 3% on a constant currency basis), reflecting (i) a 4% reduction resulting from the Heritage Brands transaction and the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business and (ii) a 2% reduction resulting from the war in Ukraine.
• Earnings per share on a GAAP basis is projected to be approximately $2.20 compared to $2.51 in the prior year period. Earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis is projected to be approximately $2.00 compared to $2.72 in the prior year period. The second quarter 2022 earnings per share projections include the estimated negative impacts of (i) approximately $0.25 per share related to foreign currency translation, primarily due to the stronger U.S. dollar, and (ii) approximately $0.17 per share related to the war in Ukraine. Earnings per share on a GAAP basis for these periods include the amounts for the applicable period described under the heading “Non-GAAP Exclusions” later in this release. Earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis exclude these amounts.
• Interest expense is projected to decrease to approximately $20 million compared to $26 million in the prior year period.
• Effective tax rate is projected to be approximately 30%.

Please see the section entitled “Full Year and Quarterly Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Amounts” at the end of this release for further detail and reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP amounts discussed in this section.

Non-GAAP Exclusions:

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

• Estimated pre-tax gain of approximately $15 million to be recorded in the second quarter of 2022 in connection with the sale of the Company’s equity investment in Karl Lagerfeld Holding B.V.
• Pre-tax costs of $48 million incurred in 2021 in connection with actions announced in March 2021 to streamline the Company’s organization through reductions in its workforce, primarily in certain international markets, and to reduce its real estate footprint, including reductions in office space and select store closures, consisting of noncash asset impairments, severance, and contract termination and other costs, of which $43 million was incurred in the first quarter, $2 million was incurred in the second quarter, and $2 million was incurred in the third quarter.
• Pre-tax costs of $21 million incurred in 2021 in connection with the exit from the Heritage Brands Retail business announced in July 2020 that was substantially completed in the second quarter of 2021, consisting of severance and other termination benefits, accelerated amortization of lease assets and contract termination and other costs, of which $8 million was incurred in the first quarter and $13 million was incurred in the second quarter.
• Pre-tax net gain of $113 million recorded in the third quarter of 2021 in connection with the sale of certain intellectual property and other assets of the Company’s Heritage Brands business that closed on the first day of the third quarter of 2021 (the “Heritage Brands transaction”), which includes a gain on the sale, less costs to sell, a net gain on the Company’s retirement plans associated with the transaction, and severance costs.
• Pre-tax gain of $49 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021 related to the recognized actuarial gain on retirement plans.
• One-time discrete tax benefits of $152 million recorded in the fourth quarter of 2021 principally resulting from a tax accounting method change made in conjunction with the Company’s 2020 U.S. federal income tax return.
• 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 is taxable or tax deductible, and if so, in what jurisdiction the tax expense or tax deduction would occur. All items above were identified as either primarily taxable or tax deductible, with the tax effect taken at the applicable income tax rate in the local jurisdiction, or as non-taxable or non-deductible, in which case the Company assumed no tax effect.

As a supplement to the Company’s GAAP results, the Company presents constant currency revenue information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company presents results in this manner because it is a global company that transacts business in multiple currencies but 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. Exchange rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported revenues. The Company believes presenting constant currency revenue information provides useful information to investors, as it provides information to assess how its businesses performed excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and 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 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).

Constant currency performance 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 constant currency revenue information presented may not be comparable to similarly described measures reported by other companies.

Please see Tables 1 through 4 and the sections entitled “Reconciliations of 2022 Constant Currency Revenue” and “Full Year and Quarterly Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Amounts” later in this release for reconciliations of GAAP to non-GAAP amounts.

PVH CORP.
Non-GAAP Measures

The Company believes it is useful to investors to present its results for the quarter ended May 2, 2021 on a non-GAAP basis by excluding (i) the costs incurred in the first quarter of 2021 related to exiting the Heritage Brands Retail business, consisting of severance and other termination benefits and accelerated amortization of lease assets; (ii) the costs incurred in the first quarter of 2021 in connection with actions announced in March 2021 to streamline the Company’s organization through reductions in its workforce, primarily in certain international markets, and to reduce its real estate footprint, including reductions in office space and select store closures, consisting of noncash asset impairments, severance, and contract termination and other costs; and (iii) 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 was 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 estimated tax effects associated with the Company’s exclusions on a non-GAAP basis are based on the Company’s assessment of deductibility. In making this assessment, the Company evaluated each pre-tax item that it had identified above as a non-GAAP exclusion to determine if such item is taxable or tax deductible and, if so, in what jurisdiction the tax expense or tax deduction would occur. All of the pre-tax items identified as non-GAAP exclusions were identified as either primarily taxable or tax deductible, with the tax effect taken at the applicable income tax rate in the local jurisdiction, or as non-taxable or non-deductible, in which case the Company assumed no tax effect.

PVH CORP.
Reconciliations of 2022 Constant Currency Revenue
(In millions)

As a supplement to the Company’s reported operating results, the Company presents constant currency revenue information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure. The Company presents results in this manner because it is a global company that transacts business in multiple currencies but 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. Exchange rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported revenues. The Company believes presenting constant currency revenue information provides useful information to investors, as it provides information to assess how its businesses performed excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency exchange rates and 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 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).

Constant currency performance 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 constant currency revenue information presented may not be comparable to similarly described measures reported by other companies.

PVH CORP.
Full Year and Quarterly Reconciliations of GAAP to Non-GAAP Amounts

The Company is presenting its 2022 estimated results on a non-GAAP basis by excluding the estimated pre-tax gain to be 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 the resulting estimated tax effect. The Company has provided the reconciliation set forth below to present its estimates on a GAAP basis and excluding the foregoing amount.

The 2022 estimated results are presented on both a GAAP and non-GAAP basis. The Company believes presenting these results on a non-GAAP basis provides useful additional information to investors. The Company excludes such amounts that it deems to be non-recurring or non-operational and believes that excluding them (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 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 item 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 estimated tax effect associated with the above pre-tax item is based on the Company’s assessment of deductibility. In making this assessment, the Company evaluated the pre-tax item identified above as a non-GAAP exclusion to determine if such item is taxable, and, if so, in what jurisdiction the tax expense would occur.

2022 Net Income Per Common Share Reconciliations
		Current Guidance
		Full Year 2022 (Estimated)			Second Quarter 2022 (Estimated)
GAAP net income per common share attributable to PVH Corp.		Approximately $9.20			Approximately $2.20
Estimated per common share impact of items identified as non-GAAP exclusions		$0.20			$0.20
Net income per common share attributable to PVH Corp. on a non-GAAP basis		Approximately $9.00			Approximately $2.00

The GAAP net income per common share attributable to PVH Corp. amounts presented in the above table, as well as the amount excluded in providing non-GAAP earnings guidance, would be expected to change as a result of (i) acquisition, restructuring, divestment or similar transactions or activities, (ii) the timing and strategy of restructuring and integration initiatives or other one-time events, if any, that the Company engages in or suffers during the period, (iii) any market or other changes affecting the Company’s expected actuarial gain or loss on retirement plans, including the recent volatility in the financial markets, (iv) changes in the expected impacts of the pandemic and related supply chain and logistics disruptions, including vessel, container and other transportation shortages, labor shortages and port congestion globally, as well as production delays in some of the Company’s key sourcing countries subsequent to issuance of this press release, (v) changes in the expected impacts of inflationary pressures as well as the war in Ukraine and its broader macroeconomic implications subsequent to issuance of this press release, or (vi) any discrete tax events including changes in tax rates or tax law and events arising from audits or the resolution of uncertain tax positions.
