FY23 Financial Outlook

VF is maintaining its currency adjusted FY23 outlook while revising its earnings outlook on a reported dollar basis to reflect ongoing negative impacts from foreign currency fluctuations; we now expect adjusted EPS of $3.05 to $3.15, implying 4% to 7% growth versus the prior year on a constant dollar basis
Total VF revenue up at least 7% in constant dollars, unchanged from the previous outlook
Adjusted gross margin up slightly versus previous outlook of up approximately 50 basis points
Adjusted operating margin approximately 13.2% versus previous outlook of approximately 13.6%
Adjusted cash flow from operations approximately $1.2 billion; Capital expenditures approximately $250 million, both unchanged versus previous outlook
- Excludes the impact of a payment VF anticipates making in FY23 of approximately $857 million plus additional accrued interest relating to an assessment from the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) for the dispute regarding the timing of income inclusion associated with VF's acquisition of Timberland in 2011, as previously disclosed
VF's FY23 outlook assumes the following:
- No additional significant COVID-19 related lockdowns in any key commercial or production regions
- No significant worsening in global inflation rates and consumer sentiment

Steve Rendle, Chairman, President and CEO of VF said:

"We delivered solid top-line results in Q1, ahead of our initial expectations, led by strong consumer engagement with our outdoor, streetwear and active brands amidst a softer consumer environment and inflationary pressures. Importantly, we are maintaining our operating outlook for FY23, a testament to the resiliency of our purpose-built family of brands.

I remain impressed by our teams, whose passion, perseverance and execution continue to drive our success.

While uncertainty persists across geographies and marketplaces from ongoing macro-economic headwinds, we are focused on the things that we can control and will continue our strategic investments to ensure long-term, sustainable and profitable growth."

First Quarter Fiscal 2023 Income Statement Review

Revenue increased 3% (up 7% in constant dollars) to $2.3 billion driven by increases in the EMEA and Americas regions partially offset by a decline in the APAC region primarily due to COVID lockdowns in China.
Gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 53.9%, primarily driven by mix and higher freight costs partially offset by price increases. On an adjusted basis, gross margin decreased 260 basis points to 54.1%.
Operating income on a reported basis was $63.4 million. On an adjusted basis, operating income decreased 48% (down 40% in constant dollars) to $77.5 million. Operating margin on a reported basis was 2.8%. Adjusted operating margin decreased 340 basis points to 3.4%.
Earnings (loss) per share was $(0.14) on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, earnings per share decreased 68% (down 59% in constant dollars) to $0.09.

COVID-19 Outbreak Update

To help mitigate the spread of COVID-19 and in response to public health advisories and governmental actions and regulations, VF has modified its business practices, including the temporary closing of offices and retail stores, instituting travel bans and restrictions and implementing health and safety measures including social distancing and quarantines.

The majority of VF's supply chain is currently operational. Raw material suppliers in China are currently operational, though the 8-week lockdown in China during VF's first quarter has resulted in logistics challenges which are contributing to ongoing product delays. Suppliers are complying with local public health advisories and governmental restrictions. Most final product manufacturing and assembly suppliers are largely back to normal operating levels. VF is working with its suppliers to minimize disruption and is employing expedited freight strategically as needed. VF's distribution centers are operational in accordance with local government guidelines while maintaining enhanced health and safety protocols.

In North America, no stores were closed during the first quarter. Currently, all stores are open.

In the EMEA region, no stores were closed during the first quarter due to COVID-19. Currently, all stores are open.

In the APAC region, including Mainland China, 12% of stores (including partners) were closed at the beginning of the first quarter with a peak of 23% of stores closed and an average of 14% of stores closed throughout the quarter. No stores were closed at the end of the first quarter and all stores are currently open.

VF is continuing to monitor the COVID-19 outbreak globally and will comply with guidance from government entities and public health authorities to prioritize the health and well-being of its employees, customers, trade partners and consumers. As COVID-19 uncertainty continues, VF expects ongoing disruption to its business operations.

Balance Sheet Highlights

Inventories were up 92% compared with the same period last year, driven by an increase of in-transit inventory of approximately $550 million as VF modified terms with the majority of its suppliers to take ownership of inventory near point of shipment rather than destination. Accounts payable also increased 91%, which was largely driven by the increase of in-transit inventory. VF returned approximately $194 million of cash to shareholders through dividends during the quarter.

Dividend Declared

VF's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.50 per share, payable on September 20, 2022, to shareholders of record on September 12, 2022. Subject to approval by its Board of Directors, VF intends to continue to pay its regularly scheduled cash dividend.

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 "constant dollar" 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.

Discontinued Operations - Occupational Workwear Business

On June 28, 2021, VF completed the sale of its Occupational Workwear business. The Occupational Workwear business was comprised primarily of the following brands and businesses: Red Kap^®, VF Solutions^®, Bulwark^®, Workrite^®, Walls^®, Terra^®, Kodiak^®, Work Authority^® and Horace Small^®. The business also included a license for certain Dickies^® occupational workwear products that were historically sold through the business-to-business channel. Accordingly, the company has reported the operating results and cash flows of the business in discontinued operations for all periods, through the date of sale.

Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Transaction and Deal Related Activities, Costs Related to Specified Strategic Business Decisions and Pension Settlement Charge

The adjusted amounts in this release exclude transaction and deal related activities associated with the acquisition of the Supreme^® brand. Total transaction and deal related activities include integration costs of approximately $0.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The adjusted amounts in this release exclude costs related to VF's business model transformation and a transformation initiative for our Asia-Pacific regional operations. Total costs were approximately $14 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

The adjusted amounts in this release exclude a noncash pension settlement charge. The pension settlement charge resulted from the purchase of a group annuity contract, which was an action taken to streamline administration, manage financial risk associated with pension plans, and to transfer a portion of the liability associated with VF's U.S. pension plan to an insurance company. Total expense was approximately $92 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2023.

Combined, the above items negatively impacted earnings per share by $0.23 during the first quarter of fiscal 2023. 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, including the impact of foreign currency and other strategic initiatives. Additionally, the impact of the anticipated payment of taxes and interest related to the dispute with the IRS regarding the Timberland acquisition in 2011 has been excluded from fiscal 2023 adjusted cash flow from operations.

Constant Currency Financial Information

VF 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 VF 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 in lieu of or superior to, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Non-GAAP Financial Information

The financial information above has been presented on a GAAP basis and on an adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of transaction and deal related activities, activity related to specified strategic business decisions and a pension settlement charge. The adjusted presentation provides non-GAAP measures. Management believes these measures provide investors with useful supplemental information regarding VF's underlying business trends and the performance of VF's ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations.

Management uses the above financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, VF's operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures presented by other companies.
