GENESCO INC. REPORTS FISCAL 2025 THIRD QUARTER RESULTS

--Results Exceed Expectations, Driven by Journeys--

--Total Comparable Sales Increased 6%; Journeys Comparable Sales Increased 11%--

--Raises Fiscal 2025 Guidance—

NASHVILLE, Tenn., Dec. 6, 2024 --- Genesco Inc. (NYSE: GCO) today reported third quarter results for the three months ended November 2, 2024.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Financial Summary

Total net sales increased 3% to $596 million; comparable sales increased 6%
Comparable e-commerce sales increased 15%; comparable store sales increased 4%
E-commerce sales represented 24% of retail sales compared to 21% last year
GAAP EPS was ($1.76) and Non-GAAP EPS was $0.611
Raises sales guidance to down 1% to flat compared to Fiscal 2024, or flat to up 1% excluding the 53rd week in Fiscal 2024
Raises Fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS guidance to $0.80 to $1.002

 

Mimi E. Vaughn, Genesco’s Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our quarterly performance once again exceeded expectations and marked a return to positive overall comparable sales. Following a strong start to the third quarter including the heart of back-to-school, sales trends at Journeys remained robust in September and October, fueling a double-digit comp gain for the business. This result was driven by the initial phase of Journeys’ strategic growth plan which has focused on elevating the consumer experience including improving the product assortment and visually resetting our stores. EPS would have been stronger without the shift of an important back-to-school week into the second quarter this year.”

 

__________________________

1Excludes charges for asset impairments, net of tax effect in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 (“Excluded Items”). Also excludes income tax expense of $26.3 million related to a U.S. valuation allowance in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 and other items as detailed on Schedule B included with this press release. A reconciliation of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) with the adjusted earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share numbers is set forth on Schedule B to this press release. The Company believes that disclosure of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations adjusted for the items not reflected in the previously announced expectations will be meaningful to investors, especially in light of the impact of such items on the results.

2A reconciliation of the adjusted financial measures cited in the guidance to their corresponding measures as reported pursuant to GAAP is included in Schedule B to this press release.


 

 


 

Vaughn continued, “We are pleased with Journeys’ start to the fourth quarter including the important Black Friday/Cyber Monday period, especially as demand for several discretionary categories including footwear continues to be very selective and event driven. Based on the current variability of consumer demand and shopping trends, we have adopted a more cautious view for Schuh and Johnston & Murphy over the remainder of this year.

We are in the very early innings of returning Journeys and the overall company to historical rates of sales and profitability. With the progress we’ve recently made, and our track record of successfully evolving our businesses in response to changing consumer preferences and purchasing behavior, I feel confident we have the experience and strategies to drive profitable growth across the Company and create greater value for our shareholders over the near- and long-term.”

Third Quarter Review

Net sales for the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 of $596 million were up 3% compared to $579 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. The sales increase reflects a 6% increase in comparable sales, including a 15% increase in e-commerce comparable sales and a 4% increase in same store sales, and a favorable foreign exchange impact, partially offset by the negative impact of moving a strong week of back-to-school sales of approximately $17 million from the third quarter to the second quarter this year related to the 53-week calendar shift and the impact of net store closings.

The overall sales increase for the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024 was driven by an increase of 4% at Journeys, an increase of 3% at Schuh and a 10% increase at Genesco Brands, partially offset by a decrease of 4% at Johnston & Murphy. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were down 2% for the third quarter this year.

Third quarter gross margin this year decreased 30 basis points as a percentage of sales to 47.8% compared with 48.1% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2024 is due primarily to changes in product mix at Journeys.

Selling and administrative expense for the third quarter this year decreased 10 basis points as a percentage of sales to 46.1% compared to 46.2% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2024 reflects the combination of our cost savings initiatives, the closure of unproductive stores and some improvement in other expenses, partially offset by additional selling salaries and marketing expenses.

Genesco’s GAAP operating income for the third quarter was $10.2 million, or 1.7% of sales this year, compared with $10.9 million, or 1.9% of sales in the third quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in the third quarters of both Fiscal 2025 and 2024, operating income for the third quarter was $10.3 million this year compared to $11.0 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was 1.7% of sales in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 compared to 1.9% in the third quarter last year.

The effective tax rate for the quarter was 311.5% in Fiscal 2025 compared to 22.5% in the third quarter last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 27.1% in Fiscal 2025 compared to 27.8% in the third quarter last year. The lower adjusted tax rate for the third quarter this year compared to the third quarter last year reflects a reduction in the tax benefit recorded year to date due to lower projected earnings and taxes from our foreign jurisdictions. The divergence between the effective tax rate and the adjusted tax rate is due to recording a $26.3 million U.S. valuation allowance in the third quarter this year that is excluded from the adjusted tax rate.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

The GAAP loss from continuing operations was $18.8 million in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 compared to earnings from continuing operations of $6.6 million in the third quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in the third quarters of both Fiscal 2025 and 2024 and the U.S. valuation allowance in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, third quarter earnings from continuing operations were $6.6 million, or $0.61 per share, in Fiscal 2025, compared to $6.2 million, or $0.57 per share, in the third quarter last year.

Cash, Borrowings and Inventory

Cash as of November 2, 2024, was $33.6 million, compared with $21.7 million as of October 28, 2023. Total debt at the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 was $100.1 million compared with $128.2 million at the end of last year’s third quarter. Inventories increased 1% on a year-over-year basis, reflecting increased inventory for Genesco Brands, partially offset by a decrease at Schuh and Johnston & Murphy, while Journeys remained flat.

Capital Expenditures and Store Activity

For the third quarter this year, capital expenditures were $13 million, related primarily to retail stores and digital and omnichannel initiatives. Depreciation and amortization was $13 million. During the quarter, the Company opened two stores and closed 14 stores. The Company ended the quarter with 1,302 stores compared with 1,360 stores at the end of the third quarter last year, or a decrease of 4%. Square footage was down 4% on a year-over-year basis.

Share Repurchases

The Company repurchased 17,922 shares during the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 for $0.4 million, or $24.50 per share. The Company currently has $42.3 million remaining on its expanded share repurchase authorization announced in June 2023.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

Store Closing and Cost Savings Update

The Company closed 12 Journeys stores in the third quarter of Fiscal 2025 (for a total of 41 Journeys stores closed to date in Fiscal 2025) and expects to close up to another 10 Journeys stores in Fiscal 2025
The Company's cost savings program remains on track to achieve a reduction in the annualized run rate of $45 to $50 million by the end of Fiscal 2025

Fiscal 2025 Outlook

For Fiscal 2025, the Company:

Now expects total sales to be down 1% to flat compared to Fiscal 2024, or flat to up 1% excluding the 53rdweek in Fiscal 2024 versus prior expectations for a total sales decrease of 1% to 2%, or flat to down 1% excluding the 53rd week in Fiscal 2024
Now expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $0.80 to $1.00 versus prior guidance of $0.60 to $1.002
Guidance assumes no further share repurchases and a tax rate of 27%

identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “expect,” “feel,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “optimistic,” “confident” and similar terminology. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from weakness in store and shopping mall traffic, restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company’s ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; the imposition of tariffs on product imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; the Company’s ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of pandemics or geopolitical events, including shipping disruptions in the Red Sea; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; civil disturbances; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war, and other sources of market weakness in the U.K. and Republic of Ireland; the effectiveness of the Company's omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressure in the U.S. and the U.K.; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company's markets; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; risks related to public health and safety events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; retained liabilities associated with divestitures of businesses including potential liabilities under leases as the prior tenant or as a guarantor; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to secure allocations to refine product assortments to address consumer demand;the ability to renew leases in existing stores and control or lower occupancy costs, to open or close stores in the number and on the planned schedule, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at

 

 

 

 


 

expected expense levels; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings; the amount and timing of share repurchases; the Company’s ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company's market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company's shares or for the retail sector in general; our ability to meet our sustainability, stewardship, emission and diversity, equity and inclusion related ESG projections, goals and commitments; costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in the Company’s business or information technology systems either by security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems; the Company’s ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits in both the amount and timeframe anticipated; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations, environmental matters and other disputes involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of, and elsewhere in, the Company’s SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via the Company’s website, www.genesco.com.

Summary Results December 6, 2024 FY25 Q3 GENESCO Exhibit 99.2


Slide 2

This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding future sales, earnings, operating income, gross margins, expenses, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, tax rates, store openings and closures, cost reductions, ESG progress and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Forward-looking statements are usually identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “expect,” “feel,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “optimistic,” “confident” and similar terminology. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from weakness in store and shopping mall traffic, restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company’s ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of civil disturbances; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; the imposition of tariffs on product imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; the Company’s ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of pandemics or geopolitical events, including shipping disruptions in the Red Sea; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; civil disturbances; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war, and other sources of market weakness in the U.K. and Republic of Ireland; the effectiveness of the Company's omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressure in the U.S. and the U.K.; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company's markets; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; risks related to public health and safety events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; retained liabilities associated with divestitures of businesses including potential liabilities under leases as the prior tenant or as a guarantor; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to secure allocations to refine product assortments to address consumer demand; the ability to renew leases in existing stores and control or lower occupancy costs, to open or close stores in the number and on the planned schedule, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings; the amount and timing of share repurchases; the Company’s ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company's market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company's shares or for the retail sector in general; our ability to meet our sustainability, stewardship, emission and diversity, equity and inclusion related ESG projections, goals and commitments; costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in the Company’s business or information technology systems either by security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems; the Company’s ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits in both the amount and timeframe anticipated; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations, environmental matters and other disputes involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of, and elsewhere in, the Company’s SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via the Company’s website, www.genesco.com. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of the subject matter of this release are beyond Genesco's ability to control or predict. Genesco undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements. Safe Harbor Statement


Slide 3

Non-GAAP Financial Measures We report consolidated financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, to supplement these consolidated financial results our presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted earnings (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share and adjusted operating income (loss). This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for related GAAP measures. We believe that disclosure of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations and operating income (loss) adjusted for the items not reflected in the previously announced expectations will be meaningful to investors, especially in light of the impact of such items on the results. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP supplemental information to the comparable GAAP measures can be found in the Appendix.
