GREENSBORO, N.C. - August 4, 2022 - Kontoor Brands, Inc. (NYSE: KTB), a global lifestyle apparel company, with a portfolio led by two of the world’s most iconic consumer brands, Wrangler® and Lee®, today reported financial results for its second quarter ended July 2, 2022.
“In a highly dynamic macroeconomic environment, supply chain challenges and inflationary pressures accelerated during the quarter. While these factors tempered our top line a bit sooner than expected, we were still able to deliver strong 27 percent revenue growth and 57 percent adjusted earnings growth, on a constant currency basis, in line with our EPS guidance. I am proud of our teams’ agility to navigate rapid changes, outperform on a relative basis in our largest market, and deliver on our second quarter profitability goals.” said Scott Baxter, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of Kontoor Brands.
“Looking forward, we anticipate that macro conditions will remain challenging, particularly as retailer inventories are rebalanced and inflation weighs on overall consumer demand. However, we are confident that our strategies, continued brand momentum and efficient operating model will fuel further competitive separation over time. Kontoor-specific drivers in accelerating diversified growth, when coupled with our proven strong cash generation, should allow us to continue to deliver industry-leading TSR,” added Baxter.
This release refers to “adjusted” amounts from 2021 and “constant currency” amounts, which are further described in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below. All per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis.
As previously stated, the cutover and transition of the Company’s North American enterprise resource planning (ERP) system caused timing of shipments to benefit first quarter 2021 revenue and profitability, while negatively impacting second quarter 2021 revenue and
profitability. In addition, second quarter 2021 revenue in the EMEA region benefited from a shift in the timing of shipments from the third quarter to the second quarter ahead of the Company’s European ERP implementation. These factors primarily impacted first half year-over-year quarterly comparisons but are not expected to impact the full year.
Second Quarter 2022 Income Statement Review
Revenue was $614 million, a 25 percent increase on a reported basis, and 27 percent in constant currency, over the same period in the prior year. Revenue increases were primarily driven by strength in the U.S., in both the Digital and wholesale channels. Strength domestically was somewhat offset by the international business, as COVID lockdowns negatively impacted the China region, while expected Europe declines were primarily due to timing shifts of shipments associated with the ERP implementation in the region last year. Despite international headwinds, reported global own.com revenue increased 8 percent, or 10 percent in constant currency, and digital wholesale increased 43 percent, or 46 percent in constant currency, compared to second quarter 2021.
U.S. revenue was $510 million, increasing 40 percent over last year, driven by strength in both the Wrangler and Lee brands. Gains were driven by growth in wholesale, including new business development wins, and strength in Digital, with U.S. own.com revenue increasing 24 percent and digital wholesale increasing 64 percent compared to the second quarter 2021. Compared to the first half of 2019, Wrangler and Lee U.S. revenues in the first half of 2022 increased 19 percent and 14 percent, respectively.
International revenue was $103 million, an 18 percent decrease over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis and down 11 percent in constant currency. As expected, due to COVID lockdowns in the region, China decreased 50 percent on a reported basis and 49 percent in constant currency compared to the second quarter 2021. Also as expected due primarily to the aforementioned ERP timing shifts, Europe decreased 25 percent on a reported basis and 14 percent in constant currency.
Wrangler brand global revenue was $418 million, a 34 percent increase over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis and was up 36 percent in constant currency. Wrangler U.S. revenue increased 40 percent compared to last year, with broad based strength across channels and categories, including Western, Workwear, Outdoor and Female. Comparisons to second quarter 2021 were positively impacted by timing shifts due to the North American ERP implementation. Wrangler international revenue was flat compared to the second quarter 2021 on a reported basis and increased 8 percent in constant currency.
Lee brand global revenue was $193 million, a 10 percent increase over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis and was up 12 percent in constant currency. Lee U.S. revenue increased 40 percent compared to last year, driven by strength in U.S. wholesale demand and increases in Digital. Comparisons to second quarter 2021 also benefitted from the timing shifts due to the North American ERP implementation. Lee international revenue decreased 27 percent over the second quarter 2021 on a reported basis and 22 percent in constant currency, driven primarily by the aforementioned COVID lockdowns in China and ERP timing shifts in Europe.
Other global revenue was $3 million, a 25 percent decrease compared to the same period in the prior year.
Gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 43.5 percent of revenue, compared to the second quarter 2021. As expected, near-term transitory expenses, which include air freight for expedited shipments to meet demand, contributed 170 basis points of decline. Further, geographic mix impacts, primarily from the COVID lockdowns in China and ERP timing shifts in Europe, contributed 150 basis points of decline. These declines were partially offset by strategic pricing that more than offset inflationary product cost pressures.
Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $178 million on a reported basis, or 29.0 percent of revenue, down 990 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year. SG&A decreased 510 basis points compared to second quarter 2021 adjusted SG&A. Tight control of non-strategic expenses, lower compensation costs and better fixed cost leverage on improving revenue more than offset product development and distribution expenses, while continuing to make strategic investments in higher demand creation, digital and IT investments.
Operating income was $89 million on a reported basis. Operating margin increased 730 basis points to 14.5 percent of revenue. Operating margin increased 250 basis points compared to second quarter 2021 adjusted operating margin, as tight control of non-strategic expenses, fixed cost leverage and benefits of strategic pricing more than offset strategic investments to drive future accelerating revenue growth, higher transitory impacts, product costs and negative impacts of geographic mix.
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) was $95 million on a reported basis. EBITDA margin increased 650 basis points to 15.5 percent of revenue. EBITDA margin increased 180 basis points compared to second quarter 2021 adjusted EBITDA margin.
Earnings per share was $1.09 on a reported basis compared to reported EPS of $0.40 and adjusted EPS of $0.70, in the same period in the prior year.
July 2, 2022, Balance Sheet and Liquidity Review
The Company ended the second quarter 2022 with $145 million in cash and cash equivalents, and approximately $0.8 billion in long-term debt.
As of July 2, 2022, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $488 million available for borrowing against this facility.
As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.46 per share, payable on September 19, 2022, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 9, 2022. Consistent with a commitment to return cash to shareholders, the Company repurchased $40 million in common stock during the second quarter. When combined with the strong dividend, the Company returned a total of $114 million to shareholders during the first half of 2022. The Company plans on continuing to use its share
repurchase program to offset dilution, while also opportunistically buying shares as capital allocation priorities, excess cash flows and market conditions warrant.
Inventory at the end of the second quarter 2022 was $538 million, up 33 percent compared to the prior-year period and flat with pre-pandemic 2019 levels. Inventory is healthy and well positioned, with increases primarily in core product to support future replenishment business.
Globalization of the Operating Model and EMEA Headquarters Relocation
Upon completion of the ERP foundation and transition to an increasingly growth-oriented organization, management approved plans in July 2022 to accelerate its transformation to a global operating model and relocate the EMEA headquarters to Geneva, Switzerland. As the Company focuses on growth in Horizon 2, these actions are expected to provide greater capital efficiency, improved go-to-market capabilities and access to best-in-class talent. In addition, globalization efforts are anticipated to drive SKU rationalization enhancements, as well as support the Company’s overall strategies for long-term profitable growth. Expenses related to these actions are anticipated to be approximately $18 million in total, or an approximate $0.25 one-time EPS impact during the second half of 2022.
2022 Outlook
In consideration of impacts from retailer inventory rebalancing, the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, inflation and other macroeconomic factors, the Company is taking a more conservative approach to its assumptions for the balance of the year and updating its 2022 outlook, including the following:
•Revenue is now expected to increase approximately 6 percent compared to 2021, compared to prior guidance of up approximately 10 percent. Revenue in the second half of 2022 is expected to be relatively flat compared to 2021, with the third quarter experiencing greater pressure relative to the fourth quarter, due to COVID lockdowns in China and retailer inventory rebalancing.
•Gross margin is now expected to approximate 43.5 percent compared to adjusted gross margin of 44.6 percent achieved in 2021 and compared with prior guidance that was anticipated to be consistent with 2021. The Company expects higher incremental inflationary pressures on input costs and adverse mix due to COVID lockdowns in China to weigh on gross margin. However, the benefits from continued structural mix shifts to accretive channels such as Digital, ongoing cost saving initiatives and strategic pricing are anticipated to help offset these higher costs. The Company expects gross margin year-over-year headwinds to moderate in the second half, with the third quarter experiencing greater pressure relative to the fourth quarter.
•Adjusted SG&A is now expected to increase at a mid-single digit rate compared to adjusted SG&A in 2021, relatively consistent with revenue growth. Investments will continue to be made in the Company’s brands and capabilities, including demand creation, Digital, and International expansion. Given the uncertainty of macroeconomic
conditions, the Company expects tighter expense control on non-strategic and discretionary items, which will help drive strategic investments. Adjusted SG&A excludes one-time restructuring charges related to the globalization of the Company’s operating model and relocation of the European headquarters, which are anticipated to be approximately $18 million for the year.
•Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $4.40 to $4.50, compared to prior guidance of $4.75 to $4.85. Adjusted EPS excludes one-time restructuring charges related to the globalization of the Company’s operating model and relocation of the European headquarters, which are anticipated to be approximately $0.25 per share for the year.
•Capital Expenditures are expected to be in the range of $35 million to $40 million, primarily to support manufacturing, distribution and information technology projects.
•The Company expects an effective tax rate of approximately 20 percent in 2022, which compares to 21 percent in the prior outlook. Interest expense is expected to be in the range of $30 million to $35 million in 2022, compared to approximately $35 million in the prior outlook. Average shares outstanding in 2022 are expected to be approximately 57 million, excluding the impact of additional share repurchases.

Constant Currency Financial Information
The Company is a global company that reports financial information in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amounts reported by the Company from translating its foreign revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results. As a supplement to our reported operating results, we present constant currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We use constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how our business performed excluding the effects of changes in the rates used to calculate foreign currency translation. Management believes this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparison of operating results and better identify trends in our businesses.
To calculate foreign currency translation on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current year period for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year (rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current year period).
These constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, reported results under GAAP. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Management uses the above financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation.

Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures
Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is a key financial measure for the Company's shareholders and financial leaders, as the Company's debt financing agreements require the measurement of adjusted EBITDA, along with other measures, in connection with the Company's compliance with debt covenants. While management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be considered supplemental in nature and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternate for, reported results under GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
(a) During the three months ended June 2021, restructuring and separation costs primarily related to the Company's global ERP system and information technology infrastructure build-out, as well as strategic actions taken by the Company, including adjustments resulting from the Company's decision to exit certain VF Outlet stores and transition our India business to a licensed model. Total restructuring and separation costs resulted in a corresponding tax impact of $5.9 million for the three months ended June 2021.
(b) Other adjustments have been made for the three months ended June 2021 to remove the funding fees related to the accounts receivable sale arrangement, as they are treated as interest expense in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA for debt compliance purposes. Management believes these funding fees are not material to evaluating the overall results of the Company and thus has discontinued this adjustment effective in the first quarter of 2022.
