Outlook
The Company today updated its outlook for the fiscal
year ending January 31, 2027 and provided its outlook for the third quarter ending October 31, 2026. The Company’s updated guidance assumes that tariffs for the remainder of the year will approximate current rates.
The Company’s outlook does not include any impact
related to the Marc Jacobs acquisition, and it expects to provide more specific guidance when it reports third quarter earnings. The Company believes the acquisition will be slightly dilutive in fiscal 2027.
As previously disclosed, the transaction is expected
to be dilutive during the first 12 months after closing, with accretion expected thereafter.
Fiscal 2027
Net sales for fiscal 2027 are expected to be
approximately $2.71 billion, which incorporates the loss of approximately $460 million of
sales from Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger products. This compares to net sales of $2.96 billion for fiscal 2026.
Net income is expected to be between $181.0 million
and $185.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $4.10 and $4.20. This compares to net income of $67.4 million, or $1.51 per diluted share for fiscal 2026.
Non-GAAP net income is expected to be between
$97.0 million and $101.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $2.20 and $2.30. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $116.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.61 for fiscal 2026.
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $174.0
million and $178.0 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $192.4 million in fiscal 2026.
Net interest income is expected to be approximately
$8.0 million for GAAP purposes and $5.0 million for non-GAAP purposes .
Tax rates are estimated to be approximately
25.2% for GAAP purposes and 32.2% for non-GAAP purposes.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2027
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2027
are expected to be approximately $870.0 million. This compares to net sales of $988.6 million in last year’s third quarter.
Net income for the third quarter of fiscal
2027 is expected to be between $59.0 million and $64.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $1.35 and $1.45. This compares to GAAP
net income of $80.6 million, or $1.84 per diluted share, and non-GAAP net income of
$83.4 million, or $1.90 per diluted share in last year’s third quarter.
