A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to comparable non-GAAP results is provided in the accompanying tables and discussed under the heading “Presentation of Non-GAAP Information” below.

Third Quarter Fiscal 2014 Results

For the third quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company recorded adjusted net earnings of $35.4 million, a 3.4% decrease compared to net earnings of $36.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2013. Adjusted diluted earnings per share decreased 2.3%, to $0.42, compared to diluted earnings per share of $0.43 for the prior-year quarter. The adjusted net earnings exclude restructuring charges of $1.9 million ($1.4 million net of taxes). On a GAAP basis, third quarter fiscal 2014 net earnings were $34.0 million and diluted earnings per share totaled $0.40, including an unfavorable $0.02 after-tax impact from the restructuring charges.

Paul Marciano, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased to report better than expected third quarter earnings. We delivered revenues within the range of our expectations and through our continued focus on cost control have been able to deliver profitability at the high end of our expectations. We are also encouraged by our efforts to efficiently manage our working capital, especially inventory where the trend keeps on improving quarter-over-quarter as we worked through more of our excess inventory and tightly managed our buys.”

Mr. Marciano continued, “As we enter into the fourth quarter we are pleased with the trends we are seeing in North America, reflecting the impact of our focus on delivering a better product assortment. However, the economic climate in Southern Europe remains challenging. Therefore, although we are encouraged by our overall results in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, we will continue to plan our business cautiously given the uncertain environment.”

Total net revenue for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 decreased 2.4% to $613.5 million, from $628.8 million in the prior-year quarter. In constant currency, total net revenue decreased 4.1%.

The Company's retail stores in North America generated revenue of $253.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, a 3.1% decrease from $262.1 million in the same period a year ago. Comparable store sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014 decreased 5.0% in U.S. dollars and 4.0% in constant currency compared to the same period a year ago. The Company directly operated 502 retail stores in the United States and Canada at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2014 versus 513 retail stores a year earlier.

Net revenue from the Company's Europe segment decreased 0.8% to $200.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, from $202.6 million in the prior-year period. In local currency, net revenue decreased 6.6%.

Net revenue from the Company's Asia segment decreased 2.8% to $72.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $74.8 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 5.5%.

Net revenue from the Company's North American Wholesale segment decreased 7.4% to $53.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $57.9 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 6.2%.

Licensing segment net revenue increased 3.1% to $32.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to $31.5 million in the prior-year period.

Adjusted operating earnings for the third quarter of fiscal 2014 decreased 14.2% to $49.8 million (including a $0.7 million favorable currency translation impact) from operating earnings of $58.1 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted operating margin in the third quarter decreased 110 basis points to 8.1%, compared to operating margin of 9.2% in the prior-year quarter. The lower operating margin primarily reflects the impact of more markdowns and the impact of negative same store sales on the Company's fixed asset structure in North America as well as lower wholesale shipments in Europe. These decreases were partially offset by lower selling and merchandising expenses in Europe resulting from productivity improvements and lower advertising and marketing expenditures. On a GAAP basis, operating earnings decreased 17.5% and operating margin decreased 140 basis points.

Other net income, which primarily includes net unrealized and realized gains on non-operating assets, was $3.6 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2014, compared to other net expense of $0.2 million in the prior-year quarter.

The Company's third quarter fiscal 2014 effective tax rate decreased to 33.0%, compared to 34.8% for the third quarter of the prior year.

Nine-Month Period Results

Adjusted net earnings for the nine months ended November 2, 2013 were $91.4 million, a decrease of 13.9% compared to net earnings of $106.2 million for the nine months ended October 27, 2012.  Adjusted diluted earnings per share declined 11.6% to $1.07 per share in the first nine months of the 2014 fiscal year compared to diluted earnings per share of $1.21 in the comparable nine months last year. On a GAAP basis, for the first nine months of fiscal 2014, net earnings were $83.8 million and diluted earnings per share totaled $0.98, including an unfavorable $0.09 after-tax impact from the restructuring charges.

Total net revenue for the first nine months of fiscal 2014 decreased 2.3% to $1.80 billion from $1.84 billion in the prior-year period.  In constant currency, total net revenue decreased 3.5%.

The Company's retail stores in North America generated revenue of $746.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, a 2.7% decrease from $766.9 million in the same period a year ago.  Comparable store sales decreased 5.6% in U.S. dollars and 5.0% in constant currency for the nine months ended November 2, 2013, compared to the nine months ended October 27, 2012.

Net revenue from the Company's Europe segment decreased 3.5% to $616.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, compared to $639.3 million in the prior-year period.  In local currency, net revenue decreased 7.0%.

Net revenue from the Company's Asia segment increased 1.6% to $209.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, from $206.5 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 0.6%.

Net revenue from the Company's North American Wholesale segment decreased 3.2% to $138.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, compared to $143.4 million in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue decreased 3.0%.

Licensing segment net revenue increased 2.8% to $89.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, from $87.4 million in the prior-year period.

Adjusted operating earnings for the first nine months of fiscal 2014 decreased 15.6% to $130.4 million (including a $3.4 million favorable currency translation impact) from operating earnings of $154.6 million in the prior-year period. Adjusted operating margin for the first nine months of fiscal 2014 declined 120 basis points to 7.2%, compared to operating margin of 8.4% in the prior-year period. The decline in operating margin primarily reflects the impact of negative same store sales on the Company's fixed asset structure, lower wholesale shipments in Europe and more markdowns in North America. These declines were partially offset by lower selling and merchandising expenses in Europe resulting from productivity improvements and lower advertising spend. On a GAAP basis, operating earnings decreased 22.3% and operating margin declined 170 basis points.

Other net income, which primarily includes net unrealized and realized gains on non-operating assets and net realized and unrealized mark-to-market gains on foreign currency contracts and balances, was $8.9 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2014, compared to other net income of $5.8 million in the prior-year period.

The Company's effective tax rate was 33.0% for the first nine months of both fiscal 2014 and fiscal 2013.

Outlook

The Company updated its outlook for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2014, which is now as follows (note that the Company's fiscal year 2014 has 52 weeks, while fiscal 2013 had 53 weeks):

Consolidated net revenues are expected to range from $2.55 billion to $2.57 billion.
Adjusted operating margin is expected to be between 9.0% and 9.5%; GAAP operating margin is expected to be between 8.5% to 9.0%.
Adjusted diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.82 to $1.92; GAAP diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $1.73 to $1.83.

The Company's expectations for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2014 ending February 1, 2014, are as follows:

Consolidated net revenues are expected to range from $750 million to $770 million.
Operating margin is expected to be between 13.0% and 14.5%.
Diluted earnings per share are expected to be in the range of $0.74 to $0.84.

During the first and second quarters of fiscal 2014, the Company implemented plans to streamline its operational structure and reduce expenses. The Company's adjusted outlook for the full year excludes the impact of the restructuring charges recorded in the first nine months of fiscal 2014, which reduced GAAP net earnings by $10.4 million ($7.6 million net of tax), or approximately $0.09 per share. The Company's expectations for the fourth quarter ending February 1, 2014, and the Company's adjusted and GAAP outlook for the fiscal year ending February 1, 2014, also exclude the impact of any restructuring charges that may be recorded during the fourth quarter ending February 1, 2014.

Dividends

The Company also announced today that its Board of Directors has approved a quarterly cash dividend of $0.20 per share on the Company's common stock. The dividend will be payable on January 3, 2014 to shareholders of record at the close of business on December 18, 2013.

Presentation of Non-GAAP Information

The financial information presented in this release includes both GAAP and non-GAAP measures. The “non-GAAP” or “adjusted” financial measures exclude the impact of restructuring charges incurred during fiscal 2014.

The Company has excluded these restructuring charges, and related tax impact, from its adjusted financial measures primarily because it does not believe such charges reflect the Company's ongoing operating results or future outlook. The Company believes that these adjusted financial measures are useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate the comparability of the Company's operating results when reviewed in conjunction with the Company's GAAP financial statements. A reconciliation of reported GAAP results to comparable non-GAAP results is provided in the accompanying tables. The non-GAAP measures are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the Company's reported GAAP results.

This release also includes certain constant currency financial information. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amount reported from translating the Company's foreign revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results under GAAP. The Company provides constant currency information to help investors assess how our businesses performed excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency translation rates. To calculate revenues and earnings from operations on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current-year period for entities reporting in currencies other than U.S. dollars are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year. The constant currency calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific transactions denominated in a currency that is different to the functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

Investor Conference Call

The Company will hold a conference call at 4:30 pm (ET) on December 4, 2013 to discuss the news announced in this press release. A live webcast of the conference call will be accessible at www.guess.com via the “Investor Relations” link. The webcast will be archived on the website for 30 days.

Notes:
 
 
 
 
1

During the first quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company implemented plans to streamline its operational structure and reduce expenses in both Europe and North America. During the second quarter of fiscal 2014, the Company expanded these plans to include the consolidation and streamlining of its operations in Europe and Asia. These plans resulted in restructuring charges incurred during the three and nine months ended November 2, 2013. No adjustments have been made to the same prior-year periods.
 
 
2

The income tax effect of the restructuring charges was based on the Company's assessment of deductibility using the statutory tax rate of the tax jurisdiction in which the charges were incurred.
