Business Wire

3 days ago

LOS ANGELES--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Guess?, Inc. (NYSE: GES) today reported financial results for its first quarter ended May 3, 2025.
Carlos Alberini, Chief Executive Officer, commented, 'We are encouraged by our first quarter performance, which came in ahead of expectations across key metrics. Revenue grew 9% in U.S. dollars and 12% in constant currency, reflecting the successful integration of rag & bone and continued momentum in our wholesale businesses across Europe and the Americas. Disciplined expense management, combined with the better than expected top-line performance, enabled us to report operating results ahead of our guidance range, narrowing our loss for the quarter.'
Paul Marciano, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer, commented, 'We continue to benefit from our highly diversified business model. We have a strong global infrastructure that supports 25 different product categories, multiple markets across all regions of the world and several consumer channels. We plan to continue to leverage this unique platform to drive revenue growth, including initiatives such as the expansion of rag & bone into new markets and product categories, the expanded distribution of our Guess Athleisure product line and our Guess Jeans brand to capture increased market share among young consumers.'
Mr. Alberini concluded, 'As we look into the rest of the year, we continue to expect solid revenue growth driven by the expansion of rag & bone, the ongoing development of Guess Jeans and the new joint venture with the Chalhoub Group in the Middle East. On the cost side, we have taken proactive measures to manage tariff exposure and protect margins, limiting this year's net impact to less than $10 million based on current conditions, which we have incorporated into our outlook. We remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives to increase our direct-to-consumer sales productivity and improve our profitability through business and portfolio optimization.'

This press release contains non-GAAP financial measures, including certain adjusted results of operations and outlook measures, constant currency information and free cash flow measures. See the heading 'Presentation of Non-GAAP Information' for further information and the accompanying tables for a reconciliation to the comparable GAAP financial measure.
rag & bone Acquisition
On April 2, 2024, the Company and global brand management firm WHP Global completed the previously announced acquisition of New York-based fashion brand rag & bone. Under the terms of the agreement, the Company acquired all the rag & bone operating assets and assumed the related operating liabilities of the business. In addition, a joint venture owned 50% each by the Company and WHP Global acquired rag & bone's intellectual property. As of April 2, 2024, the Company integrated rag & bone into its existing segments.
First Quarter Fiscal 2026 Results
For the first quarter of the fiscal year ending January 31, 2026 ('fiscal 2026'), the Company recorded GAAP net loss of $32.9 million, compared to GAAP net earnings of $13.0 million for the same prior-year quarter. The results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 included a net $4.3 million unrealized loss compared to a net $38.5 million unrealized gain in the same prior-year quarter, due to the change in fair value of the derivatives related to the Company's convertible senior notes due 2028 (the '2028 Notes') and the related convertible note hedge. GAAP diluted net loss per share was $0.65 for the first quarter of fiscal 2026, compared to GAAP diluted net earnings per share ('EPS') of $0.23 for the same prior-year quarter. The Company estimates a negative impact from its share buybacks of $0.03 and a positive impact from currency of $0.08 on GAAP diluted loss per share in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 when compared to the same prior-year quarter.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, the Company's adjusted net loss was $22.3 million, a 61% increase from $13.8 million for the same prior-year quarter. Adjusted diluted net loss per share increased 63% to $0.44, compared to $0.27 for the same prior-year quarter. The Company estimates a negative impact from its share buybacks of $0.02 and a positive impact from currency of $0.08 on adjusted diluted EPS in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 when compared to the same prior-year quarter.
Net Revenue. Total net revenue for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 9% to $647.8 million from $591.9 million in the same prior-year quarter. In constant currency, net revenue increased by 12%.
Europe revenues increased 8% in U.S. dollars and 9% in constant currency. Retail comparable sales (including e-commerce) decreased 4% in U.S. dollars and 3% in constant currency. The inclusion of our e-commerce sales positively impacted the retail comparable sales percentage by an immaterial amount in U.S. dollars and 1% in constant currency.
Americas Retail revenues increased 9% in U.S. dollars and 12% in constant currency. Retail comparable sales (including e-commerce) decreased 11% in U.S. dollars and 9% in constant currency. The inclusion of our e-commerce sales negatively impacted the retail comparable sales percentage by 1% in both U.S. dollars and constant currency.
Americas Wholesale revenues increased 63% in U.S. dollars and 70% in constant currency.
Asia revenues decreased 20% in U.S. dollars and 16% in constant currency. Retail comparable sales (including e-commerce) decreased 24% in U.S. dollars and 20% in constant currency. The inclusion of our e-commerce sales negatively impacted the retail comparable sales percentage by 2% in both U.S. dollars and constant currency.
Licensing revenues decreased 14% in both U.S. dollars and constant currency.
Loss from Operations. GAAP loss from operations for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 increased 67.5% to $33.3 million (including a $4.3 million unfavorable currency translation impact), from $19.9 million in the same prior-year quarter. GAAP operating margin in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 decreased 1.7% to negative 5.1%, from negative 3.4% for the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by the unfavorable business mix, higher asset impairment charges and an unfavorable currency impact, partially offset by the impact of newly acquired businesses. The negative impact of currency on operating margin for the quarter was approximately 70 basis points.
For the first quarter of fiscal 2026, adjusted loss from operations increased 235.5% to $25.8 million, from $7.7 million in the same prior-year quarter. Adjusted operating margin decreased 2.7% to negative 4.0%, from negative 1.3% for the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by higher expenses, including higher store costs and performance-based compensation and advertising expenses, the unfavorable impact of business mix, and the unfavorable currency impact, partially offset by the impact of newly acquired businesses.
Operating margin for the Company's Europe segment decreased 2.7% to negative 2.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, from negative 0.2% in the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by higher expenses, including higher advertising and store costs, and an unfavorable currency impact.
Operating margin for the Company's Americas Retail segment decreased 3.3% to negative 10.5% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, from negative 7.2% in the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by the unfavorable impact from negative retail comparable sales and higher markdowns and expenses, including higher store costs, partially offset by the impact of newly acquired businesses.
Operating margin for the Company's Americas Wholesale segment decreased 2.8% to 19.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, from 22.7% in the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by the impact of newly acquired businesses and higher expenses, partially offset by the favorable impact of higher revenues.
Operating margin for the Company's Asia segment decreased 8.2% to negative 3.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, from 5.1% in the same prior-year quarter, driven primarily by the unfavorable impact of lower revenues, partially offset by lower expenses.
Operating margin for the Company's Licensing segment increased 0.1% to 92.1% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, from 92.0% in the same prior-year quarter.
Other income, net. Other income, net for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 was $1.4 million compared to $35.8 million for the same prior-year quarter. The change was primarily due to a net $4.3 million unrealized loss compared to a net $38.5 million unrealized gain in the change in the fair value remeasurement of derivatives related to the 2028 Notes and the related convertible note hedge and net unrealized and realized losses on foreign exchange currency contracts compared to net unrealized and realized gains in the same prior-year quarter, partially offset by net unrealized and realized gains on foreign currency exposures compared to net unrealized and realized losses in the same prior-year quarter.
The Company's expectations for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2026 are as follows:
A reconciliation of the Company's outlook for GAAP operating margin to adjusted operating margin and GAAP diluted EPS to adjusted diluted EPS for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2026 is as follows:
The Company's expectations of the high-end for the free cash flow outlook for the full fiscal year 2026 are as follows (in millions):
Dividends
The Company's Board of Directors approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.30 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend will be payable on July 3, 2025 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on June 18, 2025.
Presentation of Non-GAAP Information
The financial information presented in this release includes non-GAAP financial measures, such as adjusted results and outlook, constant currency financial information and free cash flows. The adjusted measures exclude the impact of certain professional service and legal fees and related (credits) costs, costs incurred in connection with the evaluation of a Proposed Transaction (as defined herein), transaction costs in connection with the Company's acquisition of rag & bone, separation charges related to the transition of the operations of the Company's U.S. distribution center, asset impairment charges, net (gains) losses on lease modifications, loss on extinguishment of debt, non-cash amortization of debt discount of the Company's convertible senior notes, fair value remeasurement of derivatives related to the 2028 Notes and the related convertible note hedge, restructuring costs and charges expected to be incurred in connection with the planned exit of certain retail stores in North America, the related income tax effects of the foregoing items and the impact from certain discrete income tax adjustments related primarily to the impact from changes in the income tax law in certain jurisdictions, in each case where applicable. The weighted average diluted shares outstanding used for adjusted diluted earnings (loss) per share excludes the dilutive impact of the Notes, based on the bond hedge contracts in place. These non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the Company's reported GAAP results and outlook.
The Company has excluded these items from its adjusted financial measures primarily because it believes these items are not indicative of the underlying performance of its business and the adjusted financial information provided is useful for investors to evaluate the comparability of the Company's operating results and its future outlook (when reviewed in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial statements and GAAP future outlook). A reconciliation of reported GAAP results and outlook to comparable non-GAAP results and outlook is provided in the accompanying tables.
This release includes certain constant currency financial information. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amount reported from translating the Company's foreign revenue, expenses and balance sheet amounts into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results under GAAP. The Company provides constant currency information to enhance the visibility of underlying business trends, excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency translation rates. To calculate net revenue and earnings (loss) from operations on a constant currency basis, actual or forecasted results for the current-year period are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year. The constant currency calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific transactions denominated in a currency different from the functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate. However, in calculating the estimated impact of currency on our earnings (loss) per share for our actual or forecasted results, the Company estimates gross margin (including the impact of merchandise-related hedges) and expenses using the appropriate prior-year rates, translates the estimated foreign earnings at the comparable prior-year rates, and considers the year-over-year earnings impact of gains or losses arising from balance sheet remeasurement and foreign currency contracts not designated as merchandise hedges. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company includes information regarding its free cash flows in this release. The Company calculates free cash flows as cash flows from operating activities less (i) purchases of property and equipment and (ii) payments for property and equipment under finance leases. Free cash flows are not intended to be an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, but rather to provide additional visibility to investors regarding how much cash is generated for discretionary and non-discretionary items after deducting purchases of property and equipment and payments for property and equipment under finance leases. Free cash flow information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of reported and expected GAAP cash flows from operating activities to the comparable non-GAAP free cash flow measure is provided in the accompanying tables.

Footnotes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Data
Footnote:
1
The Company's outlook for the second quarter and full fiscal year 2026 assumes that foreign currency exchange rates remain at recently prevailing rates.
2
Amounts for the full fiscal 2026 outlook exclude the following items: (i) certain professional service and legal fees and related (credits) costs which the Company otherwise would not have incurred as part of its business operations, (ii) costs incurred in connection with the evaluation of a Proposed Transaction (as defined herein), (iii) asset impairment charges related primarily to impairment of property and equipment related to certain retail locations resulting from underperformance and expected store closures, (iv) net gains on lease modifications related primarily to the early termination of certain lease agreements and (v) fair value remeasurement of derivatives associated with the 2028 Notes. See the heading 'Presentation of Non-GAAP Information' for further information. The Company is unable to predict future amounts with respect to these items, as such amounts are inconsistent in magnitude and frequency and certain elements used to estimate such items have not yet occurred or are out of the Company's control. As such, the Company has not considered any future charges or credits with respect to these items in the accompanying GAAP outlook.
3
Amounts for the second quarter and full fiscal 2026 outlook exclude (i) restructuring costs and charges expected to be incurred in connection with the planned exit of certain retail stores in North America, (ii) the amortization of the debt discount related to the 2028 Notes and (iii) the dilutive impact of the 2028 Notes for adjusted diluted shares and corresponding interest expenses at initial stock prices below $41.80, based on the bond hedge contracts in place that will deliver shares to offset dilution. The Company excludes the impact anticipated to be recorded and the diluted impact anticipated in those periods as such amounts are reasonably estimated. The Company has not assumed any potential share dilution due to the related warrants. The estimated charges and the timing of such charges are based on certain assumptions, including applicable law in various jurisdictions, and actual amounts may vary from such estimates based on a number of factors, including, but not limited to, negotiations with new business partners, negotiations with landlords and the number of employees impacted by these activities. The Company may incur other charges or cash expenditures not currently contemplated due to unanticipated events that may occur as a result of or in connection with the implementation of the activities described herein.
4
The adjusted results exclude certain professional service and legal fees and related (credits) costs, costs incurred in connection with the evaluation of a Proposed Transaction, transaction costs in connection with the acquisition of rag & bone, separation charges related to the transition of the operation of the Company's U.S. distribution center, asset impairment charges, net gains on lease modifications, loss on extinguishment of debt, amortization of debt discount, fair value remeasurement of derivatives associated with the 2028 Notes, the related income tax impacts of these adjustments, as well as certain discrete income tax adjustments related primarily to the impact from changes in the income tax law in certain jurisdictions, where applicable. The weighted average diluted shares outstanding used for adjusted diluted loss per share excludes the dilutive impact of the Notes, based on the bond hedge contracts in place. A reconciliation of actual results to adjusted results is presented in the 'Reconciliation of GAAP Results to Adjusted Results.'
5
The Company excludes the dilutive impact of the Notes at stock prices below $40.65 and $37.13 for the 2024 Notes and the 2028 Notes, respectively, based on the bond hedge contracts in place that will deliver shares to offset dilution. At stock prices in excess of $37.13 for the 2028 Notes, the Company would have an obligation to deliver additional shares in excess of the dilution protection provided by the bond hedges.
6
Adjustments represent certain professional service and legal fees and related (credits) costs which the Company otherwise would not have incurred as part of its business operations.
7
Adjustments represent costs incurred in connection with the evaluation by the Special Committee of the Company's Board of Directors of a non-binding proposal received from WHP Global, through its affiliate WHP Investments, LLC, to acquire for $13.00 per share in cash the outstanding shares of the Company, other than shares held by certain existing shareholders, including Paul Marciano, Maurice Marciano and Carlos Alberini, through which the Company would become a private company or any other similar transaction (such transactions, a 'Proposed Transaction') which the Company otherwise would not have incurred as part of its business operations.
8
Adjustments represent transaction costs in connection with the rag & bone acquisition which the Company otherwise would not have incurred as part of its business operations.
9
Adjustments represent separation charges related to the transition of the operation of the Company's U.S. distribution center, which was formerly owner-operated, to a third-party logistics provider.
10
Adjustments represent asset impairment charges related primarily to impairment of property and equipment related to certain retail locations resulting from under-performance and expected store closures.
11
Adjustments represent net gains on lease modifications related primarily to the early termination of certain lease agreements.
12
Adjustments represent loss on extinguishment of debt from a portion of the exchanged 2024 Notes in April 2023 and March 2024.
13
In April 2023, January 2024 and March 2024, the Company issued $275 million, $65 million and $12 million principal amount of 3.75% convertible senior notes due 2028 in private offerings, respectively. The debt discount resulted from: (1) the modification accounting for a portion of the exchanged 2024 Notes in April 2023, and (2) recognized embedded derivative liability for the issuances of the Additional 2028 Notes. The debt discount will be amortized as non-cash interest expense over the term of the 2028 Notes.
14
Adjustments represent changes in fair value of the equity-linked derivatives associated with the 2028 Notes.
15
Adjustments represent discrete income tax items related primarily to the impact from changes in the income tax law in certain jurisdictions.
16
The income tax effect of certain professional service and legal fees and related (credits) costs, proposed transaction costs in connection with the non-binding proposal received through which the Company would become a private company, transaction costs in connection with the acquisition of rag & bone, separation charges related to the transition of the operation of the Company's U.S. distribution center, asset impairment charges, net gains on lease modifications, loss on extinguishment of debt and amortization of debt discount was based on the Company's assessment of deductibility using the statutory income tax rate (inclusive of the impact of valuation allowances) of the tax jurisdiction in which the charges were incurred.
17
Adjustments include the related income tax effect based on the Company's assessment of deductibility using the statutory income tax rate (inclusive of the impact of valuation allowances) of the tax jurisdiction in which the charges were incurred.
18
Adjustments represent the potentially dilutive impact of outstanding stock options and restricted stock units which are not included in the computation of diluted net loss per share as the impact would be antidilutive.
