Bracken Darrell, President and CEO, said: “We continue to make progress on transforming VF through our Reinvent plan. Since I joined VF just over a year and a half ago, we have delivered on our key priorities: reduced costs, lowered net debt, improved the performance of the Americas business, and taken strong steps in the ongoing Vans turnaround. As part of our completely reset leadership team, our new brand presidents are perfectly placed to leverage their rich experience in the areas of product and marketing to grow our brands.

For the next phase of our transformation plan, we are adopting ‘The VF Way’, a series of best-in-class standardized processes which will empower our brands by enhancing creativity and building functional excellence to fuel long-term growth. I am confident these actions will create a multi-brand advantage for VF while enabling further investment to drive sustainable shareholder value creation.”

Bracken Darrell, President and CEO, said: "We activated our transformation program, Reinvent, during my first 15 months at VF, through which we are making excellent progress advancing our priorities and reshaping the company. We are accelerating the pace of change by building new capabilities across our organization to leverage our powerful portfolio of brands for long-term, sustainable, profitable growth. We are beginning to see benefits from our initiatives, but significant upside remains as we create a structure primed for growth while transforming our company and its culture. This strong foundation positions us to quickly enhance VF’s profitability while enabling further investment in sustainable shareholder value creation."

FY25 Investor Day, Part 1

The company is updating the key pillars of its enterprise strategy and introducing medium-term¹ financial targets.

• Capitalizing on VF’s multi-brand portfolio anchored in performance: VF’s brands will remain anchored in the performance category with style elements that further expand the platform for growth. The company is adopting a unified way of operating that can be scaled across the multi-brand portfolio.
• Investing in scalable capabilities: VF is investing in six key areas to build capabilities and enhance the company’s competitive advantage: elevated design function, modern marketing, global commercial platform, best-in-class integrated business planning, use-case centric AI and talent development.
• Creating the optimal value-building P&L structure: A series of integrated workstreams are underway and making progress addressing key capability gaps with a focus on reducing the SG&A cost base, expanding gross margin and positioning the company for future revenue growth. These actions together are expected to create a scalable and highly cash generative P&L structure.
• Committing to further strengthening the balance sheet: VF intends to further reduce debt and leverage to reach its optimal capital structure. The company will continue to prioritize free cash flow² and debt reduction with a goal of further reducing net leverage³. While prioritizing debt paydown, VF remains committed to returning capital to shareholders through paying a quarterly cash dividend, subject to approval by VF’s Board of Directors.

Medium-Term Financial Targets

• Adjusted operating margin of at least 10%
  • Adjusted gross margin of at least 55%
  • Adjusted SG&A as a percentage of revenue of 45% or lower
• Net leverage of 2.5x or below

^{____________________
1} Medium-term is defined as in Fiscal Year 2028.
² Free cash flow is defined as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and software purchases.
³ Net leverage is calculated as net debt to adjusted EBITDA. Net debt includes long-term debt, the current portion of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and operating lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents per VF’s consolidated balance sheet. Adjusted EBITDA excludes rent expense.

Bracken Darrell, President and CEO, said: "Our results in the quarter met our expectations and reflect a sequential and broad-based improvement in year-on-year trends. At the same time, we made further progress on our four Reinvent priorities and we are on track to reach our previously announced $300 million savings target by the end of FY25. Following the completion of the Supreme divestiture on October 1, 2024, we delivered on our commitment to pay down VF’s $1 billion term loan due December 2024. Our Americas regional platform is fully operational and showing promising signs, while the performance at Vans is improving. In summary, we advanced our turnaround plan towards a return to growth and strong, sustainable value creation at VF."

Q2'FY25 Income Statement Review

• Results demonstrated broad-based year-over-year sequential improvement relative to Q1'FY25, with all key metrics in line with, or above the company's expectations
• Revenue $2.8 billion, down 6% vs. last year, an improvement vs. Q1'FY25 down 10%
  • The North Face^® down 3% (down 4% in constant dollars) as expected. This compares against a strong Q2'FY24 of up 19% (up 17% in constant dollars)
  • Vans^® down 11% vs. last year, relative to Q1'FY25 down 21% vs. last year
• Gross margin 52.2%, up 120 basis points vs. last year
• Operating margin 9.9%, down 210 basis points vs. last year; adjusted operating margin down 60 basis points vs. last year to 11.4%
• Earnings (loss) per share (EPS) $0.52 vs. Q2'FY24 $(1.16); adjusted EPS $0.60 vs. Q2'FY24 $0.63

Balance Sheet Review

• Q2'FY25 ending inventories down 13% relative to the prior year
• Net debt at the end of Q2'FY25 was $5.7 billion, down by approximately $446 million relative to last year. Shortly after the fiscal quarter end, VF received $1.475 billion of net proceeds following the close of the Supreme sale, allowing VF to further reduce net debt.

Financial Outlook

• For Q3'FY25 VF expects the following on a continuing operations basis:
  • Revenue in the range of $2.7 billion to $2.75 billion, down 1% to down 3% year-over-year in reported dollars, inclusive of an expected negative FX impact of approximately 100 basis points
  • Adjusted operating income in the range of $170 million to $200 million (Q3'FY24: $218 million)
• For FY25 VF expects free cash flow from continuing operations plus proceeds from non-core physical asset sales of approximately $425 million, with core fundamentals in line with previous guidance. Relative to the original full year guidance of $600 million, the change reflects the sale of Supreme and additional reinvestment initiatives in the second half of FY25, which are partially offset by the greater than anticipated proceeds for non-core physical asset sales.

Dividend Declared

VF’s Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share. This dividend will be payable on December 18, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 10, 2024. Subject to approval by its Board of Directors, VF intends to continue to pay quarterly dividends.

Financial Presentation Disclosure

All per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis. This release refers to “reported” and “constant dollar” or “constant currency” amounts, terms that are described under the heading below “Constant Currency - Excluding the Impact of Foreign Currency.” Unless otherwise noted, “reported” and “constant dollar” or “constant currency” amounts are the same. This release also refers to “continuing” and “discontinued” operations amounts, which are concepts described under the heading “Discontinued Operations - Supreme.” Unless otherwise noted, results presented are based on continuing operations. This release also refers to “adjusted” amounts, a term that is described under the heading below “Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Reinvent and Transaction and Deal Related Activities.” Unless otherwise noted, “reported” and “adjusted” amounts are the same.

Discontinued Operations - Supreme

On July 16, 2024, VF entered into a definitive Stock and Asset Purchase Agreement with EssilorLuxottica S.A. to sell the Supreme^® brand business (“Supreme”). On October 1, 2024, VF completed the sale of Supreme. Accordingly, the company has reported the related held-for-sale assets and liabilities as assets and liabilities of discontinued operations and included the operating results and cash flows of the business in discontinued operations for all periods presented.

Constant Currency - Excluding the Impact of Foreign Currency

This release refers to “reported” amounts in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), which include translation and transactional impacts from foreign currency exchange rates. This release also refers to both “constant dollar” and “constant currency” amounts, which exclude the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. Reconciliations of GAAP measures to constant currency amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this release, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors.

Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Reinvent and Transaction and Deal Related Activities

The adjusted amounts in this release exclude costs related to Reinvent, VF's transformation program. Costs, including restructuring charges and project-related costs, were approximately $41 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and $59 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025.

The adjusted amounts in this release exclude transaction and deal related activities associated with the review of strategic alternatives for the Global Packs business, consisting of the Kipling^®, Eastpak^® and JanSport^® brands. Total transaction and deal related activities include costs of approximately $0.5 million in the first six months of fiscal 2025.

Combined, the above items negatively impacted earnings per share by $0.08 during the second quarter of fiscal 2025 and $0.11 during the first six months of fiscal 2025. All adjusted amounts referenced herein exclude the effects of these amounts.

Reconciliations of measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to adjusted amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this release, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors. The company also provides guidance on a non-GAAP basis as we cannot predict certain elements which are included in reported GAAP results. VF defines free cash flow as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and software purchases and defines net debt as short and long term borrowings less cash and cash equivalents.
