Second Quarter Fiscal 2016 Results
For the second quarter of fiscal 2016, the Company recorded net earnings of $18.3 million, a 16.7% decrease compared to $22.0 million for the second quarter of fiscal 2015. Diluted earnings per share decreased 19.2% to $0.21, compared to $0.26 for the prior-year quarter. The negative impact of currency on earnings per share in the second quarter of fiscal 2016 was approximately 10 cents.
Paul Marciano, Chairman of the Board and Chief Creative Officer, commented, “I am pleased to report that second quarter results were better than our expectations. In our Americas Retail business, comp sales ended flat for the quarter in constant currency, mainly driven by continued improvement in the performance of the womens’ category. Our e-commerce business continued to experience solid top-line growth of 20%. So far in the third quarter, comp sales in the Americas are roughly flat in constant currency. But I am even more pleased by the hiring of Victor Herrero as our new Chief Executive Officer. Victor brings with him amazing experience and a deep understanding of retail. I am confident that he has all the required qualities to help write the next chapter for Guess.”
Victor Herrero, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “I am very honored to be part of the Guess family and am convinced that the Guess brand has tremendous opportunities. Already I have identified five initiatives that I’m sure will create economic value. In the first phase, we will focus on elevating the quality of our sales organization by leveraging our field and store structure. We will also unlock the potential of the Guess Brand in Asia by working to build a major business in this region. Finally we will create a culture of purpose and accountability throughout the entire company by implementing a central organizational structure focused on sales and profitability. In the second phase, we will revitalize our wholesale business and improve our overall cost structure. My goal is to drive long-term value for our shareholders and I am confident that these initiatives are the right steps towards achieving that goal.”
Total net revenue for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 10.2% to $546.3 million, from $608.6 million in the prior-year quarter. In constant currency, total net revenue decreased 0.6%. Refer to the accompanying tables for a summary of the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the Company’s net revenue. Beginning this quarter, the Company has changed the names of its “North American Retail” and “North American Wholesale” segments to “Americas Retail” and “Americas Wholesale” to better reflect that these segments are inclusive of its operations in North America as well as Central and South America. There have been no changes to the underlying reporting in either segment.
• | The Company’s retail stores and e-commerce sites in the Americas generated revenue of $232.5 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, a 4.7% decrease from $244.0 million in the same period a year ago. Comparable store sales including the results of our e-commerce sites in the U.S. and Canada for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 2.8% in U.S. dollars and was relatively flat in constant currency compared to the same period a year ago. |
• | Net revenue from the Company’s Europe segment decreased 15.3% to $199.4 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, from $235.3 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue increased 3.7%. |
• | Net revenue from the Company’s Asia segment decreased 11.7% to $56.7 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, from $64.3 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 6.0%. |

• | Licensing segment net revenue decreased 5.5% to $25.3 million in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, from $26.8 million in the prior-year period. |
Operating earnings for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 12.2% to $26.2 million (including a $4.4 million unfavorable currency translation impact), from $29.9 million in the prior-year period. Operating margin in the second quarter was down 10 basis points at 4.8%, compared to 4.9% in the prior-year quarter. Operating margin was negatively impacted by currency exchange rate fluctuations and charges related to legal matters. These decreases were mostly offset by overall product margin improvements relating to higher initial mark-ups in Europe and Americas Retail and less markdowns in Americas Retail.
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Americas Retail segment increased 420 basis points to 2.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to negative 1.9% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was driven by higher gross margins due primarily to less markdowns and higher initial mark-ups, partially offset by the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs, and a lower SG&A rate driven by lower store impairment charges. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Europe segment decreased 130 basis points to 9.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 10.4% in the prior-year period. The decrease in operating margin was driven primarily by lower gross margins due to the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs, partially offset by higher initial mark-ups. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Asia segment decreased 190 basis points to 1.6% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 3.5% in the prior-year period. The decrease in operating margin was driven by lower gross margins in South Korea and a higher SG&A rate due primarily to overall deleveraging. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Americas Wholesale segment increased 160 basis points to 15.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 13.5% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was due to higher product margins, partially offset by an overall deleveraging of SG&A expenses. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Licensing segment decreased 450 basis points to 88.5% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 93.0% in the prior-year period. |

Diluted earnings per share increased 8.7% to $0.25, compared to $0.23 for the prior-year period.

• | Net revenue from the Company’s Europe segment decreased 14.6% to $336.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2016, from $394.4 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue increased 5.3%. |
• | Net revenue from the Company’s Asia segment decreased 10.1% to $120.8 million in the first six months of fiscal 2016, from $134.4 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 6.0%. |

Operating earnings for the first six months of fiscal 2016 increased 9.6% to $30.6 million (including a $3.2 million unfavorable currency translation impact), from $27.9 million in the prior-year period. Operating margin in the first six months of fiscal 2016 increased 50 basis points to 3.0%, compared to 2.5% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was driven by overall product margin improvements relating to higher initial mark-ups in Europe and Americas Retail and less markdowns in Americas Retail. These increases were partially offset by the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations, the negative impact on the Company’s fixed cost structure from negative same store sales in Americas Retail and charges related to legal matters.
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Americas Retail segment increased 240 basis points to negative 0.4% in the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to negative 2.8% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was driven primarily by higher gross margins due primarily to less markdowns and higher initial mark-ups, partially offset by the negative impact on the fixed cost structure resulting from negative comparable store sales and the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Europe segment decreased 20 basis points to 4.3% in the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to 4.5% in the prior-year period. The decrease in operating margin was driven by lower gross margins due to the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs, partially offset by higher initial mark-ups. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Asia segment increased 40 basis points to 4.6% in the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to 4.2% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was driven by a lower SG&A rate due primarily to an overall leveraging of expenses as we phase out of our G by GUESS concept in South Korea, partially offset by lower gross margins in South Korea. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Americas Wholesale segment was flat at 16.7% in the first six months of fiscal 2016 compared to the prior-year period. |
• | Operating margin for the Company’s Licensing segment decreased 210 basis points to 88.8% in the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to 90.9% in the prior-year period. |

The Company’s effective tax rate increased to 38.0% for the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to 35.1% in the prior-year period.

Dividends
The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.225 per share on the Company’s common stock. The dividend will be payable on September 25, 2015 to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 9, 2015.
Presentation of Non-GAAP Information
The financial information presented in this release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as constant currency financial information and free cash flow measures. The non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the Company’s reported GAAP results.
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, comparable store sales and earnings (loss) from operations on a constant currency basis, operating 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 that is different to the functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate. However, in calculating the estimated impact of currency on our earnings per share guidance for the third quarter and full year of fiscal 2016, 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 excludes 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 also includes information regarding its free cash flows in this release. The Company calculates free cash flows as cash flows from operating activities less purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flows is not intended to be an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of liquidity, but rather provides additional visibility to investors regarding how much cash is generated for discretionary and non-discretionary items after deducting purchases of property and equipment. Free cash flow information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A reconciliation of reported GAAP cash flows from operating activities to the comparable non-GAAP free cash flow measure is provided in the accompanying tables.

The Company will hold a conference call at 4:30 pm (ET) on August 26, 2015 to discuss the news announced in this press release. A live webcast of the conference call will be accessible at www.guess.com via the “Investor Relations” link. The webcast will be archived on the website for 30 days.
