Ralph Lauren Corporation (NYSE:RL), a global leader in the design, marketing, and distribution of luxury lifestyle products, today reported earnings per diluted share of $2.61, up 33% to prior year on a reported basis and $2.70, up 15% on an adjusted basis, excluding restructuring-related and other net charges, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025. This compared to earnings per diluted share of $1.96 on a reported basis and $2.34 on an adjusted basis, excluding restructuring-related and other net charges for the first quarter of Fiscal 2024.

"Our brand has always been about inspiring a better life and celebrating the moments that bring us together," said Ralph Lauren, Executive Chairman and Chief Creative Officer. "From our intimate runway show at our New York studio this spring to our elegant Salone del Mobile presentation in Milan and this summer's Olympics, we are inviting people around the world to step into their dreams through authentic, timeless style."

"We delivered a solid start to the year, with first quarter performance exceeding our expectations on the top- and bottom-line led by our direct-to-consumer and international businesses," said Patrice Louvet, President and Chief Executive Officer. "The powerful combination of our brand strength and diverse growth drivers – together with our culture of agility and operating discipline – gives us confidence that our long-term strategy will continue to deliver even through these dynamic times."

Key Achievements in First Quarter Fiscal 2025

We delivered the following highlights across our Next Great Chapter: Accelerate priorities in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025:

Elevate and Energize Our Lifestyle Brand

Drove continued momentum in new customer acquisition and loyalty with 1.3 million new consumers in our direct-to-consumer businesses, growth in net promoter scores, and more than 60 million social media followers, a low-teens increase to last year

Invested in key brand moments to drive authentic connections with consumers around the world, notably: our women's Collection fashion show in New York City in April; Only Polo campaign celebrating our summer icons; our annual Salone del Mobile and men's Purple Label presentation in Milan; another successful 6/18 holiday event in China; and kick-off of our 2024 Paris Olympics campaign as official outfitter of Team USA

Drive the Core and Expand for More

Drove continued momentum in our Core business, up low-single digits, along with our high-potential categories (Women's Apparel, Outerwear, and Handbags), which increased mid-single-digits to last year in constant currency and outpaced total company growth

Product highlights this quarter included: our Wimbledon capsule, featuring tennis-inspired spectator styles; and our 2024 Paris Summer Olympics collections as official outfitter of Team USA

Increased average unit retail ("AUR") by 6% across our direct-to-consumer network in the first quarter, in-line with expectations and on top of a 15% increase last year, reflecting the durability of our multi-pronged elevation approach

Win in Key Cities with Our Consumer Ecosystem

By geography, revenue growth was led by Europe, up 6% on a reported basis and 7% in constant currency, exceeding our expectations. Asia sales grew 4% on a reported basis and 9% in constant currency, with China up high-single digits on a reported basis and up low-double digits in constant currency to last year. North America declined 4% as stronger direct-to-consumer performance was more than offset by planned declines in wholesale

Continued to expand and scale our key city ecosystems with the opening of 8 new owned and partnered stores in the first quarter. We also recently unveiled our newly-renovated World of Ralph Lauren store on Chicago's Michigan Avenue, including our iconic RL restaurant and our first Ralph's Coffee shop in the Midwest

Our business is supported by our fortress foundation, which we define through our five key enablers, including: our people and culture, best-in-class digital technology and analytics, superior operational capabilities, a powerful balance sheet, and leadership in citizenship and sustainability.

First Quarter Fiscal 2025 Income Statement Review

Net Revenue. In the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, revenue increased 1% to $1.5 billion on a reported basis and was up 3% in constant currency. Foreign currency negatively impacted revenue growth by approximately 170 basis points in the first quarter.

Revenue performance for the Company's reportable segments in the first quarter compared to the prior year period was as follows:

North America Revenue. North America revenue in the first quarter decreased 4% to $608 million. In retail, comparable store sales in North America increased 1%, with a 3% increase in brick and mortar stores more than offsetting a 4% decrease in digital commerce. A shift in the timing of Easter negatively impacted first quarter comps by approximately 120 basis points. North America wholesale revenue decreased 13%, in-line with our outlook, driven by receipt timing shifts and a reduction in excess product sales to the off-price wholesale channel, as planned.

Europe Revenue. Europe revenue in the first quarter increased 6% to $479 million on a reported basis and 7% in constant currency. In retail, comparable store sales in Europe increased 8%, ahead of our expectations, with a 7% increase in brick and mortar stores and a 14% increase in digital commerce. Europe wholesale revenue increased 5% to prior year on both a reported and constant currency basis, with stronger re-order trends more than offsetting negative impacts from previously disclosed timing receipt shifts.

Asia Revenue. Asia revenue in the first quarter increased 4% to $391 million on a reported basis and 9% in constant currency, slightly ahead of our expectations. Comparable store sales in Asia increased 9%, with a 7% increase in our brick and mortar stores and a 21% increase in digital commerce.

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 was $1.1 billion and gross margin was 70.5%. Adjusted gross margin was also 70.5%, 170 basis points above the prior year. Gross margin expansion was driven by favorable product, channel and geographic mix shifts, lower cotton costs and AUR growth across all regions.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 were $857 million on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, operating expenses were $850 million, up 2% to last year. Adjusted operating expense rate was 56.2%, compared to 55.5% in the prior year period, driven by higher marketing investments due to the planned timing of key campaigns. Excluding marketing expenses, adjusted operating expense rate declined approximately 30 basis points from the prior year period.

Operating Income. Operating income for the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 was $209 million and operating margin was 13.8% on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $216 million and operating margin was 14.3%, 90 basis points above the prior year. Operating income for the Company's reportable segments in the first quarter compared to the prior year period was as follows:

North America Operating Income. North America operating income in the first quarter was $120 million on both a reported and adjusted basis. Adjusted North America operating margin was 19.7%, up 10 basis points to last year.

Europe Operating Income. Europe operating income in the first quarter was $121 million on both a reported and adjusted basis. Adjusted Europe operating margin was 25.2%, up 370 basis points to last year. Foreign currency negatively impacted adjusted operating margin rate by 50 basis points in the first quarter.

Asia Operating Income. Asia operating income in the first quarter was $107 million on both a reported and adjusted basis. Adjusted Asia operating margin was 27.4%, up 270 basis points to last year. Foreign currency negatively impacted adjusted operating margin rate by 30 basis points in the first quarter.

Net Income and EPS. Net income in the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 was $169 million, or $2.61 per diluted share on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, net income was $175 million, or $2.70 per diluted share. This compared to net income of $132 million, or $1.96 per diluted share on a reported basis, and net income of $158 million, or $2.34 per diluted share on an adjusted basis, for the first quarter of Fiscal 2024.

In the first quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company had an effective tax rate of approximately 22% on both a reported and adjusted basis. This compared to an effective tax rate of approximately 23% on both a reported and adjusted basis in the prior year period. The modest decline was driven primarily by favorable tax credits, more than offsetting the absence of discrete foreign tax benefits realized in the prior year period.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Review

The Company ended the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 with $1.8 billion in cash and short-term investments and $1.1 billion in total debt, compared to $1.7 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2024.

Inventory at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2025 was $1.0 billion, down 13% compared to the prior year period, primarily driven by strategic reductions in North America.

The Company repurchased approximately $176 million of Class A Common Stock in the first quarter.

Full Year Fiscal 2025 and Second Quarter Outlook

The Company's outlook is based on its best assessment of the current geopolitical and macroeconomic environment, including inflationary pressures, other consumer spending-related headwinds and foreign currency volatility, among others. The full year Fiscal 2025 and second quarter guidance excludes any potential restructuring-related and other net charges that may be incurred in future periods, as described in the "Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures" section of this press release.

For Fiscal 2025, the Company continues to expect revenues to increase approximately low-single digits to last year on a constant currency basis, centering on around 2% to 3%. Based on current exchange rates, foreign currency is now expected to negatively impact revenue growth by approximately 150 basis points in Fiscal 2025.

The Company continues to expect operating margin for Fiscal 2025 to expand approximately 100 to 120 basis points in constant currency, driven by gross margin expansion and operating expense leverage. Gross margin is expected to increase approximately 50 to 100 basis points in constant currency. Foreign currency is now expected to negatively impact gross and operating margins by approximately 40 basis points.

For the second quarter, the Company expects constant currency revenues to grow approximately low- to mid-single digits to last year, in a range centered around 3% to 4%. Foreign currency is expected to negatively impact revenue growth by approximately 160 basis points.

Operating margin for the second quarter is expected to expand approximately 80 to 120 basis points in constant currency, with roughly 110 to 130 basis points of gross margin expansion more than offsetting higher planned operating expenses to support key marketing campaigns in the quarter. Excluding marketing expense, operating expenses are expected to decline slightly as a percent of sales compared to prior year. Foreign currency is expected to negatively impact gross and operating margins by approximately 40 and 50 basis points, respectively, in the second quarter.

The Company's full year Fiscal 2025 tax rate is now expected to be in the range of approximately 22% to 23%, increasing from 19% in the prior year, following discrete tax benefits recognized in the prior year period. The second quarter tax rate is expected to be in the range of 21% to 22%.

The Company continues to expect capital expenditures for Fiscal 2025 of approximately $300 million to $325 million.

NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

Because Ralph Lauren Corporation is a global company, the comparability of its operating results reported in U.S. Dollars is affected by foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations because the underlying currencies in which it transacts change in value over time compared to the U.S. Dollar. Such fluctuations can have a significant effect on the Company's reported results. As such, in addition to financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("U.S. GAAP"), the Company's discussions often contain references to constant currency measures, which are calculated by translating current-year and prior-year reported amounts into comparable amounts using a single foreign exchange rate for each currency. The Company presents constant currency financial information, which is a non-U.S. GAAP financial measure, as a supplement to its reported operating results. The Company uses constant currency information to provide a framework for assessing how its businesses performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Management believes this information is useful to investors for facilitating comparisons of operating results and better identifying trends in the Company's businesses. The constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, the Company's operating performance measures calculated in accordance with U.S. GAAP.

This earnings release also includes certain other non-U.S. GAAP financial measures relating to the impact of charges and other items as described herein. The Company uses non-U.S. GAAP financial measures, among other things, to evaluate its operating performance and to better represent the manner in which it conducts and views its business. The Company believes that excluding items that are not comparable from period to period helps investors and others compare operating performance between two periods. While the Company considers non-U.S. GAAP measures useful in analyzing its results, they are not intended to replace, nor act as a substitute for, any presentation included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in conformity with U.S. GAAP, and may be different from non-U.S. GAAP measures reported by other companies.

Adjustments made during the fiscal periods presented include charges recorded in connection with the Company's restructuring activities, as well as certain other charges (benefits) associated with other non-recurring events, as described in the footnotes to the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures above. The income tax benefit (provision) has been adjusted for the tax-related effects of these charges, which were calculated using the respective statutory tax rates for each applicable jurisdiction. Included in this earnings release are reconciliations between the non-U.S. GAAP financial measures and the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures before and after these adjustments.

Additionally, the Company's full year Fiscal 2025 and second quarter guidance excludes any potential restructuring-related and other charges that may be incurred in future periods. The Company is not able to provide a full reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to U.S. GAAP as it is not known at this time if and when any such charges may be incurred in the future. Accordingly, a reconciliation of the Company's non-U.S. GAAP based financial measure guidance to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP measures cannot be provided at this time given the uncertain nature of any such potential charges that may be incurred in future periods.
