New York. NY == G-III Apparel Group, Ltd.   announced operating results for the second quarter of fiscal 2023, ended July 31, 2022.

Morris Goldfarb, G-III’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are pleased to have completed our previously announced acquisition of the remaining 81% of the iconic Karl Lagerfeld brand, further expanding our global reach. In the second quarter of fiscal 2023, we continued to see significant year-over-year sales growth across our power brands. We are managing the business prudently with a keen eye towards gaining market share and building on our strengths while further expanding our global reach. Looking ahead, we are in a good position for the Fall season and our order book remains strong.”

Mr. Goldfarb concluded, “Given the challenging environment that has rapidly developed over the last few months, we are taking a more conservative view for the balance of the year. We have a strong track record of managing through difficult business conditions and remain confident in our strategy and in our ability to deliver on our updated full year expectations, as the overall fundamentals of our business remain solid.”

Net sales for the second quarter ended July 31, 2022 increased 25% to $605.2 million from $483.1 million in the prior year’s quarter. The Company reported net income for the second quarter of $36.3 million, or $0.74 per diluted share, compared to $19.2 million, or $0.39 per diluted share, in the prior year’s quarter.

Non-GAAP net income per diluted share was $0.39 for the second quarter of this year compared to $0.41 in the same period last year. Non-GAAP net income per diluted share excludes (i) a $30.9 million gain in the fair value of the Company’s minority ownership in Karl Lagerfeld prior to the acquisition, (ii) $5.7 million of expenses related to the Karl Lagerfeld transaction which include incentive compensation, professional fees and amortization of inventory valuation adjustments and (iii) non-cash imputed interest expense of $1.7 million in this quarter related to the note issued to seller (the “Seller Note”) as part of the consideration for the acquisition of Donna Karan International compared to $1.6 million in the second quarter last year. The aggregate effect of these exclusions was equal to $(0.35) per diluted share in the second quarter of this year and $0.02 per diluted share in the second quarter of fiscal 2022.

Outlook

The Company today updated its guidance for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2023. The Company’s fiscal year 2023 guidance anticipates the expected impact from current levels of inflationary pressure on consumers and incremental costs associated with the supply chain conditions, including the timing of receipts of goods.

For fiscal 2023, the Company expects net sales of approximately $3.15 billion and net income between $182 million and $187 million, or between $3.69 and $3.79 per diluted share. This compares to net sales of $2.77 billion and net income of $200.6 million, or $4.05 per diluted share, last year. This guidance is inclusive of approximately $130.0 million in net sales and net income of approximately $0.10 per diluted share in connection with the operations of the Karl Lagerfeld business for the seven months in this fiscal year subsequent to Karl Lagerfeld becoming a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company.

The Company is anticipating non-GAAP net income for fiscal 2023 between $177.0 million and $182.0 million, or between $3.60 and $3.70 per diluted share. Non-GAAP results excludes (i) a $30.9 million gain in the fair value of the Company’s minority ownership in Karl Lagerfeld, (ii) $16.7 million of expenses related to the Karl Lagerfeld transaction which include incentive compensation, professional fees, foreign currency losses and amortization of inventory valuation adjustments and (iii) non-cash imputed interest expense of approximately $6.9 million related to the Seller Note. The aggregate effect of these exclusions is equal to $(0.09) per diluted share. This guidance compares to non-GAAP net income of $207.9 million, or $4.20 per diluted share, for fiscal 2022. Non-GAAP results for fiscal 2022 exclude (i) non-cash imputed interest expense of $6.4 million related to the Seller Note, (ii) expenses of $2.1 million related to the Karl Lagerfeld transaction and (iii) asset impairments net of gains on lease terminations of $1.5 million, primarily related to leasehold improvements and furniture and fixtures at certain of our retail stores. The aggregate effect of these exclusions was equal to $0.15 per diluted share in fiscal 2022.

The Company is projecting full-year adjusted EBITDA for fiscal 2023 between $318.0 million and $323.0 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $350.2 million in fiscal 2022.

For the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, the Company expects net sales of approximately $1.07 billion compared to $1.02 billion in the same period last year. Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 is expected to be between $83.0 million and $88.0 million, or $1.70 and $1.80 per diluted share. This compares to net income of $106.7 million, or $2.16 per diluted share, in last year’s third quarter.

The Company is anticipating non-GAAP net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2023 between $87.0 million and $92.0 million, or between $1.80 and $1.90 per diluted share. Non-GAAP results exclude (i) expenses of $3.4 million related to the Karl Lagerfeld transaction and (ii) non-cash imputed interest expense of approximately $1.8 million related to the Seller Note. This guidance compares to non-GAAP net income of $107.9 million, or $2.18 per diluted share, for fiscal 2022. Non-GAAP results for fiscal 2022 exclude non-cash imputed interest expense of $1.6 million related to the Seller Note. The effect of this exclusion was equal to $0.10 per diluted share in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and $0.02 per diluted share in last year’s third quarter.
