NASHVILLE, Tenn., May 29, 2026 --- Genesco Inc. (NYSE: GCO) today reported first quarter results for the three months ended May 2, 2026.
First Quarter Fiscal 2027 Financial Summary
•
Net sales of $487 million increased 3% compared to Q1FY26
•
Comparable sales increased 2%, with stores up 3% while e-commerce was flat
•
Gross margin improved 30 basis points compared to last year
•
Selling and administrative expenses leveraged 30 basis points compared to last year; Adjusted selling and administrative expenses leveraged 60 basis points compared to last year
•
GAAP EPS was ($1.42) and Non-GAAP EPS was ($2.18)1 versus GAAP EPS of ($2.02) and Non-GAAP EPS of ($2.05) last year2
Mimi E. Vaughn, Genesco’s Board Chair, President, Chief Executive Officer and Interim Chief Financial Officer, said, “After a strong finish to Fiscal 2026, we are pleased to report a solid start to Fiscal 2027, delivering our seventh consecutive quarter of positive comparable sales and first quarter results that exceeded expectations across the board. The execution of our strategic initiatives continues to translate into tangible results. Journeys’ comparable sales grew mid-single-digits on top of a high-single-digit gain last year, as our work around product elevation and customer experience continues to drive market share gains. At the same time, Johnston & Murphy’s comparable sales accelerated sharply, increasing high-single-digits, while Schuh’s comparable sales performance reflects our decision to pull back on promotions and prioritize a more full-price selling model.”
Vaughn continued, “With the better than expected start, we are raising our full-year adjusted EPS outlook to $2.00 to $2.40. We are creating meaningful value through our strategic growth plan and operational execution. Across our portfolio, we’re seeing encouraging progress and momentum as our top-line initiatives gain traction, which along with disciplined expense management and a new cost savings program are establishing a more profitable, higher-quality business for the near and longer-term.”
__________________________
1Non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) is a non-GAAP measure. Non-GAAP EPS excludes (i) a gross margin gain for a reversal of an inventory write-down related to license exits in Genesco Brands Group, net of tax effect, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027, and (ii) a gain related to payment card interchange fee litigation, partially offset by charges for store restructuring, costs associated with information technology transformation, severance and professional fees related to shareholder activities, net of tax effect, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 and a charge for severance, net of tax effect, in the first quarter of Fiscal 2026 (“the Excluded Items”). A reconciliation of loss and loss per share from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) with the adjusted loss and loss per share numbers is set forth on Schedule B to this press release. The Company believes that disclosure of loss and loss per share from continuing operations adjusted for the items not reflected in the previously announced expectations will be meaningful to investors, especially in light of the impact of such items on the results.
2 The effective tax rate for the first quarter was 6.8% in Fiscal 2027 compared to 28.5% in the first quarter last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 6.9% in Fiscal 2027 compared to 26.7% in the first quarter last year.
First Quarter Review
Net sales for the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 increased 3% to $487 million compared to $474 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2026. The net sales increase reflects a 2% increase in comparable sales, including a 3% increase in same store sales, other non-comp gains and a favorable foreign exchange impact, partially offset by the impact of net store closings.

The overall sales increase of 3% for the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 compared to the first quarter of Fiscal 2026 was driven by an increase of 5% at Journeys, an increase of 6% at Johnston & Murphy and a 4% increase at Genesco Brands, partially offset by a decrease of 5% at Schuh. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were down 9% for the first quarter this year.
Gross margin for the first quarter this year of 47.0% increased 30 basis points as a percentage of sales compared to 46.7% last year. The increase as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2026 is due primarily to efficiencies in shipping and warehouse costs and less promotional activity across our businesses, partially offset by changes in brand mix at Journeys and Schuh.
Selling and administrative expenses improved to 52.2% compared to 52.5% last year. Adjusted selling and administrative expenses for the first quarter this year of 51.9% improved 60 basis points as a percentage of sales compared with last year primarily reflecting decreased selling salaries, occupancy, freight and warehouse expenses as well as ongoing cost savings initiatives, partially offset by increased performance-based incentive compensation expenses and investments in marketing.
Genesco’s GAAP operating loss for the first quarter was $15.4 million, or 3.2% of sales this year, compared with a loss of $28.1 million, or 5.9% of sales in the first quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in the first quarters of both Fiscal 2027 and Fiscal 2026, the operating loss for the first quarter was $23.9 million this year compared to a loss of $27.9 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was a loss of 4.9% of sales in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 compared to a loss of 5.9% in the first quarter last year.
The effective tax rate for the first quarter was 6.8% in Fiscal 2027 compared to 28.5% in the first quarter last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 6.9% in Fiscal 2027 compared to 26.7% in the first quarter last year. The lower adjusted tax rate for the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 compared to the first quarter last year primarily reflects a lower expected tax rate for Fiscal 2027 versus Fiscal 2026 due to the impact of the valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions combined with the income tax law changes from the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”).
GAAP loss from continuing operations was $14.8 million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 compared to a loss of $21.2 million in the first quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items, the first quarter loss from continuing operations was $22.7 million, or $2.18 per share, in Fiscal 2027, compared to a loss of $21.5 million, or $2.05 per share, in the first quarter last year.
Tariff Refunds
The Company is expecting refunds under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act of approximately $23 to $25 million related to its branded businesses, for which it has already applied but which are not included in the financials this quarter. In addition, the tariff refunds are not included in the Company’s guidance for the remainder of the year.
Cost Savings Program
In connection with its IT Transformation and programs to drive automation, operating efficiencies and spend optimization, the Company is announcing a new cost reduction program which is expected to generate cost savings of $40 to $50 million between now and Fiscal 2029. This program is aimed at structurally reducing the cost base, continued investment in growth initiatives, further supporting operating margin expansion and continued utilization of AI capabilities which unlock additional opportunities.
Cash, Borrowings and Inventory
Cash as of May 2, 2026, was $27.1 million, compared with $21.7 million as of May 3, 2025. Total debt at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2027 was $45.3 million compared with $121.0 million at the end of last year’s first quarter. Inventories increased 6% on a year-over-year basis primarily reflecting increased inventory for Journeys, partially offset by decreased inventory at Genesco Brands.
Capital Expenditures and Store Activity
For the first quarter this year, capital expenditures were $15 million, related primarily to retail stores. Depreciation and amortization was $13 million. During the quarter, the Company opened two stores and closed 30 stores. The Company ended the quarter with 1,208 stores compared with 1,256 stores at the end of the first quarter last year, or a decrease of 4%. Square footage was down 4% on a year-over-year basis.
Share Repurchases
The Company did not repurchase any shares during the first quarter of Fiscal 2027. The Company currently has $29.8 million remaining on its expanded share repurchase authorization announced in June 2023, after repurchasing 604,531 shares during Fiscal 2026. The Company continues to view share repurchases as an important component of its balanced capital allocation strategy and is committed to deploying excess capital.
Fiscal 2027 Outlook
Vaughn concluded, “We have clear plans in place to drive continued improvement in Fiscal 2027. Our top-line guidance reflects another year of overall positive comparable sales growth, offset by store closures and license transitions in our branded footwear group. The projected increase in our bottom line is being driven by another year of increased profitability at Journeys and improvement at Johnston & Murphy. We also expect higher gross margins, primarily at Schuh, as we reduce the business’ dependency on promotions and focus on returning to a full price, full margin sales model.”
For Fiscal 2027, the Company:
•
Raises expectations for adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations to a range of $2.00 to $2.402, with the middle of the range the most likely outcome, as a result of the better than expected start to Fiscal 2027, versus the previous range of $1.90 to $2.30 per share
•
Continues to expect positive comparable sales of 1% to 2%
•
Continues to expect total sales to be down 1% to flat compared to Fiscal 2026, reflecting the impact of store closures and license exits, and
•
Guidance assumes no further share repurchases and a tax rate of 30% for Fiscal 2027 but due to the valuation allowance, the tax rate for the second and third quarters of the year will be in the range of approximately 7% to 8%
__________________________
2A reconciliation of the adjusted financial measures cited in the guidance to their corresponding measures as reported pursuant to GAAP is included in Schedule B to this press release.

Safe Harbor Statement
This release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding future sales, earnings, operating income, gross margins, expenses, tariff refunds, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, tax rates, store openings and closures, cost reductions, and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Forward-looking statements are usually identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “expect,” “feel,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “optimistic,” “confident” and similar terminology. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from weakness in store, e-commerce and shopping mall traffic, the imposition of tariffs (including the timing and amount thereof) on products imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; the amount and timing of any tariff refunds; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company’s ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of the level of consumer spending on our merchandise and interest in our brands and in general; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; the Company’s ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of pandemics or geopolitical events, including shipping disruptions near crucial trade routes; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; a disruption in shipping or increase in cost of our imported products, and other factors affecting the cost of products; our dependence on third-party vendors and licensors for the products we sell;
store closures and effects on the business as a result of civil disturbances; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the ongoing geopolitical conflicts around the world including, without limitation, the conflict with Iran; and other sources of market weakness in the locations in which we operate; the effectiveness of the Company's omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with shareholder
activism; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressures; labor shortages; the effects of inflation; the evolving regulatory landscape related to our use of social media; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company's markets, including trends with respect to the popularity of casual and dress footwear; any failure to increase sales at our existing stores, given our high fixed expense cost structure, and in our e -commerce businesses; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; changes in consumer preferences; our ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions; our ability to expand our business and diversify our product base; impairment of goodwill in connection with acquisitions; payment related risks that could increase our operating cost, expose us to fraud or theft, subject us to potential liability and disrupt our business; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to secure allocations to refine product assortments to address consumer demand;the ability to renew leases in existing stores and control or lower occupancy costs, to open or close stores in the number and on the planned schedule, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings and savings in connection with the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; the amount and timing of share repurchases; our ability to make our occupancy costs more variable; the Company’s ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company's market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company's shares or for the retail sector in general; costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in the Company’s business or information technology systems either by security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the
implementation of new or upgraded systems or as the result of the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; changes in tax laws and tax rates and the Company’s ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits in both the amount and timeframe anticipated; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations, environmental matters and other disputes involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of, and elsewhere in, the Company’s SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via the Company’s website, www.genesco.com. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of the subject matter of this release are beyond Genesco's ability to control or predict. Genesco undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements.

FY27 Q1 GENESCO Summary Results May 29, 2026 Exhibit 99.2
This presentation contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding future sales, earnings, operating income, gross margins, expenses, tariff refunds, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, tax rates, store openings and closures, cost reductions, and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Forward-looking statements are usually identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “expect,” “feel,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “optimistic,” “confident” and similar terminology. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from weakness in store, e-commerce and shopping mall traffic, the imposition of tariffs (including the timing and amount thereof) on products imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; the amount and timing of any tariff refunds; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company’s ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of the level of consumer spending on our merchandise and interest in our brands and in general; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; the Company’s ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of pandemics or geopolitical events, including shipping disruptions near crucial trade routes; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; a disruption in shipping or increase in cost of our imported products, and other factors affecting the cost of products; our dependence on third-party vendors and licensors for the products we sell; store closures and effects on the business as a result of civil disturbances; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the ongoing geopolitical conflicts around the world including, without limitation, the conflict with Iran; and other sources of market weakness in the locations in which we operate; the effectiveness of the Company's omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with shareholder activism; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressures; labor shortages; the effects of inflation; the evolving regulatory landscape related to our use of social media; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company's markets, including trends with respect to the popularity of casual and dress footwear; any failure to increase sales at our existing stores, given our high fixed expense cost structure, and in our e -commerce businesses; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; changes in consumer preferences; our ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions; our ability to expand our business and diversify our product base; impairment of goodwill in connection with acquisitions; payment related risks that could increase our operating cost, expose us to fraud or theft, subject us to potential liability and disrupt our business; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to secure allocations to refine product assortments to address consumer demand; the ability to renew leases in existing stores and control or lower occupancy costs, to open or close stores in the number and on the planned schedule, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings and savings in connection with the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; the amount and timing of share repurchases; our ability to make our occupancy costs more variable; the Company’s ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company's market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company's shares or for the retail sector in general; costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in the Company’s business or information technology systems either by security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems or as the result of the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; changes in tax laws and tax rates and the Company’s ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits in both the amount and timeframe anticipated; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations, environmental matters and other disputes involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the "Risk Factors," "Legal Proceedings" and "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" sections of, and elsewhere in, the Company’s SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via the Company’s website, www.genesco.com. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of the subject matter of this release are beyond Genesco's ability to control or predict. Genesco undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements. Safe Harbor Statement
We report consolidated financial results in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). However, to supplement these consolidated financial results our presentation includes certain non-GAAP financial measures such as earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share and operating income (loss). This supplemental information should not be considered in isolation as a substitute for related GAAP measures. We believe that disclosure of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations and operating income (loss) adjusted for the items not reflected in the previously announced expectations will be meaningful to investors, especially in light of the impact of such items on the results. Reconciliations of the non-GAAP supplemental information to the comparable GAAP measures can be found in the Appendix. Non-GAAP • Financial Measures
