Ralph Lauren Reports Strong Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Holiday Results, Ahead of Expectations, and Raises Full Year Outlook

NEW YORK--( BUSINESS WIRE)--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 $5.82, up 25% to prior year on a reported basis and $6.22, up 29% on an adjusted basis, excluding restructuring-related and other net charges, for the third quarter of Fiscal 2026. This compared to earnings per diluted share of $4.66 on a reported basis and $4.82 on an adjusted basis, excluding restructuring-related and other net charges for the third quarter of Fiscal 2025.

"Our Holiday collection was inspired by the rugged landscapes of the American West, which have long-been both a place of refuge and inspiration for me," said Ralph Lauren, Executive Chairman and Chief Creative Officer. "They reflect connections to the land, to family, and to each other -- and as we start a new year with renewed optimism, they are a fitting reminder to dream big and find the space to become who you are."

"This holiday season, our teams delivered strong, high-quality growth across geographies and consumer segments, enabling accelerated investment in our long-term strategic priorities and brand elevation," said Patrice Louvet, President and Chief Executive Officer. "In a dynamic operating environment, our Next Great Chapter: Drive strategy -- supported by multiple growth drivers, the enduring and emotional power of our brand, and strong operational discipline -- positions us well to continue to deliver sustainable growth and long-term value creation."

Key Achievements in Third Quarter Fiscal 2026

We delivered the following highlights across our strategic priorities in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026:

Our business is supported by our fortress foundation, which we define through our five key enablers, including: our engaged and empowered teams; industry-leading, agile operations; advanced technology, artificial intelligence and analytics; resilient partners, communities and materials; and a powerful balance sheet.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2026 Income Statement Review

Net Revenue. In the third quarter of Fiscal 2026, revenue increased 12% to $2.4 billion on a reported basis and was up 10% in constant currency. Foreign currency favorably impacted revenue growth by approximately 220 basis points in the third quarter.

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

Gross Profit. Gross profit for the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $1.7 billion and gross margin was 69.9%, 150 basis points above the prior year. Gross margin expansion was driven by high-teens AUR growth, favorable product mix, and lower cotton costs, more than offsetting increased U.S. tariffs as well as other product costs.

Operating Expenses. Operating expenses in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 were $1.2 billion, up 12% to last year on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, operating expenses were also $1.2 billion, up 11% to last year. Adjusted operating expense rate was 49.0%, compared to 49.7% in the prior year period.

Operating Income. Operating income for the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $471 million and operating margin was 19.6% on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $503 million and operating margin was 20.9%, 220 basis points above the prior year period. Operating income for the Company's reportable segments in the third quarter compared to the prior year period was as follows:

Net Income and EPS. Net income in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $362 million, or $5.82 per diluted share on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, net income was $387 million, or $6.22 per diluted share. This compared to net income of $297 million, or $4.66 per diluted share on a reported basis, and net income of $308 million, or $4.82 per diluted share on an adjusted basis, for the third quarter of Fiscal 2025.

In the third quarter of Fiscal 2026, the Company had an effective tax rate of approximately 22% on both a reported and adjusted basis, in-line with our outlook. This compared to an effective tax rate of approximately 23% on a reported basis and 22% on an adjusted basis in the prior year period. The slight decline was driven primarily by favorable tax benefits compared to the prior year period.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Review

The Company ended the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 with $2.3 billion in cash and short-term investments and $1.2 billion in total debt, compared to $2.1 billion and $1.1 billion, respectively, at the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2025. Inventory at the end of the third quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $1.1 billion, up 15% compared to the prior year period.

The Company repurchased approximately $37 million of Class A Common Stock in the third quarter for a total of $350 million this fiscal year-to-date.

Full Year Fiscal 2026 and Fourth Quarter Outlook

The Company's outlook is based on its best assessment of the current geopolitical and macroeconomic environment, including inflationary pressures, tariffs and other consumer spending-related headwinds, global supply chain disruptions and foreign currency volatility, among other factors. The full year Fiscal 2026 and fourth 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 2026, the Company now expects revenues to increase high-single to low-double digits on a constant currency basis, up from its prior outlook of a 5% to 7% increase. Based on current exchange rates, foreign currency is still expected to benefit revenue growth by approximately 200 to 250 basis points in Fiscal 2026.

The Company now expects operating margin for Fiscal 2026 to expand approximately 100 to 140 basis points in constant currency, up from 60 to 80 basis points previously, driven by gross margin expansion and operating expense leverage. Foreign currency is now expected to benefit gross and operating margins by approximately 20 and 50 basis points, respectively.

For the fourth quarter, the Company expects revenues to increase approximately mid-single digits on a constant currency basis. Foreign currency is expected to benefit revenue growth by approximately 200 to 300 basis points in the quarter.

Operating margin for the fourth quarter is expected to contract approximately 80 to 120 basis points in constant currency, reflecting an increase in U.S. tariffs and higher marketing spend to support key global activations over a seasonally smaller revenue base. Foreign currency is expected to benefit gross and operating margins by approximately 50 and 100 basis points, respectively.

The Company's full year Fiscal 2026 and fourth quarter tax rates are each expected to be in the range of approximately 19% to 21%.

The Company continues to expect capital expenditures for Fiscal 2026 of approximately 4% to 5% of revenue.

FOOTNOTES TO RECONCILIATION OF NON-U.S. GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

(1)

Next Generation Transformation project charges relate to certain costs incurred in connection with the current phase of the Company's large-scale, multi-year global project that is expected to significantly transform the way in which the Company operates its business and further enable its long-term strategic pivot towards a global direct-to-consumer-oriented model.

(2)

Restructuring plan charges, net relate to the Company's restructuring activities, primarily associated with severance and benefit costs.

(3)

Cease-use rent and occupancy expenses relate to rent and occupancy costs associated with certain real estate locations previously exited in connection with the Company's past restructuring activities for which the related lease agreements have not yet expired.

(4)

Benefits relate to consideration received from Regent, L.P. in connection with the Company's previously sold Club Monaco business. The Company's Club Monaco business was sold to Regent, L.P. during the first quarter of Fiscal 2022 in connection with the Company's Fiscal 2021 Strategic Realignment Plan.

(5)

Represents tax-related effects of the previously described adjustments to operating income, which were calculated using the respective statutory tax rates for each applicable jurisdiction.

(6)

Net income adjustments per diluted common share were calculated by dividing total net income adjustments by the weighted-average diluted shares outstanding during the period. Per share amounts have been calculated using unrounded numbers.

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 2026 and fourth 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.
