Johnston & Murphy and Schuh Achieved Record Sales in FY24
Journeys Delivered Another Quarter of Sequential Comp Improvement
Fourth Quarter E-Commerce Sales Increased 5%
Genesco Inc. (NYSE: GCO) today reported fourth quarter and full fiscal year results for the three and twelve months ended February 3, 2024.
Fourth Quarter Fiscal 2024 Financial Summary
Fiscal 2024 Financial Summary
Mimi E. Vaughn, Genesco’s Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “Our Fiscal 2024 results reflect the significant shift we’ve seen in our Journeys consumer’s shopping behavior. The year began with a very challenging start, and we reacted quickly to implement strategies that drove sequential improvement in Journeys comp every quarter of the year. Although the Holiday season started off positively, consumers subsequently shopped almost exclusively for key footwear items with a notable shift away from boots, putting more pressure on our core product assortment than we anticipated at the beginning of Q4. At the same time, we delivered another year of record sales for Schuh and Johnston & Murphy.”
__________________________
1Excludes a charge for severance and asset impairments, partially offset by an insurance gain, net of tax effect in the fourth quarter and year of Fiscal 2024 (“Excluded Items”). A reconciliation of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) with the adjusted earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share numbers is set forth on Schedule B to this press release. The Company believes that disclosure of earnings (loss) and earnings (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.
Vaughn continued, “As we move into Fiscal 2025, we have more work to do to meet the needs of our changing consumer. We have an outstanding team in place at Journeys with both an experienced new leader and new chief merchant, a unique proposition as the destination for teen fashion footwear and the tremendous support of our brand partners to accomplish this. Given our strong track record of turning businesses around in challenging times, an even greater call to action to accelerate the pace of Journeys improvement and initiatives already underway, we are well positioned to unlock Journeys’ considerable earnings potential and value.”
Thomas A. George, Genesco’s Chief Financial Officer, commented, "Although we faced a difficult operating environment in the fourth quarter, we delivered sales largely in line with our most recent guidance and better-than-expected gross margin. However, the earnings impact from unusually disruptive winter storms, along with higher than anticipated expenses at Journeys drove bottom line results below our most recent expectations. Looking ahead, while we are taking urgent actions to improve our core product assortment, we expect the current sales dynamic to remain a significant headwind in the first half of Fiscal 2025 and have factored that into our outlook.”
Fourth Quarter Review
Net sales for the fourth quarter (14 weeks) increased 2% to $739 million in Fiscal 2024 compared to $725 million in the fourth quarter (13 weeks) of Fiscal 2023. Excluding the 14th week, sales would have decreased 2% for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024. The sales decrease compared to last year was driven by decreased store sales, primarily in Journeys Group, partially offset by a 5% increase in e-commerce comparable sales, increased wholesale sales and a favorable foreign exchange impact.

The overall sales increase of 2% for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 compared to the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2023 was driven by an increase of 6% at Schuh, 9% at Johnston & Murphy and a 24% increase at Genesco Brands, partially offset by a decrease of 2% at Journeys. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were up 2% for the fourth quarter.
Fourth quarter gross margin this year was 46.3%, down 10 basis points compared with 46.4% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2023 is due primarily to a change in product mix at Journeys, partially offset by lower freight and logistics costs at both Johnston & Murphy and Genesco Brands.
Selling and administrative expense for the fourth quarter this year increased 170 basis points as a percentage of sales compared with last year. Adjusted selling and administrative expense for the fourth quarter this year also increased 170 basis points as a percentage of sales compared with last year. Approximately 60 basis points of the increase were attributable to the 53rd week. Adjusting for the 53rd week, expenses were relatively flat in absolute dollars when compared to last year, despite additional variable expenses associated with our direct sales growth, demonstrating the impact and benefit of our cost savings initiatives.
Genesco’s GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter was $37.3 million, or 5.0% of sales this year, compared with $49.8 million, or 6.9% of sales in the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in both periods, operating income for the fourth quarter was $38.5 million this year compared to $51.0 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was 5.2% of sales in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 and 7.0% in the fourth quarter last year. For the 53rd week, operating income was an estimated loss of $2.6 million, or approximately $0.18 per share.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 43.0% in Fiscal 2024 compared to 19.1% in the fourth quarter last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 22.6% in Fiscal 2024 compared to 25.2% in the fourth quarter last year. The lower adjusted tax rate for the fourth quarter this year compared to the fourth quarter last year primarily reflects a reduction in the effective tax rate for jurisdictions in which the Company is profitable.
GAAP earnings from continuing operations were $20.3 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 compared to $39.2 million in the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in both periods, fourth quarter earnings from continuing operations were $28.5 million, or $2.59 per share, in Fiscal 2024, compared to $37.1 million, or $3.06 per share, in the fourth quarter last year.
Full Year Review
Net sales for Fiscal 2024 (53 weeks) decreased 2.5% to $2.32 billion from $2.38 billion in Fiscal 2023 (52 weeks). Excluding the 53rd week, sales would have decreased 4% for Fiscal 2024. The sales decrease compared to last year was driven by decreased store sales, primarily in Journeys Group, and decreased wholesale sales, partially offset by an 8% increase in e-commerce comparable sales and a favorable foreign exchange impact. Total comparable sales for Fiscal 2024 decreased 4% including a same store sales decrease of 7% and a comparable direct sales increase of 8%.
Overall sales for Fiscal 2024 compared to Fiscal 2023 decreased 8% at Journeys and 9% at Genesco Brands, partially offset by an increase of 11% at Schuh and 8% at Johnston & Murphy. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were up 8% for Fiscal 2024.
Gross margin for Fiscal 2024 was 47.3%, down 30 basis points compared with 47.6% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2023 is due primarily to increased promotional activity and product mix shift in the Journeys business, partially offset by improved margin at Schuh along with improved margins at Johnston & Murphy and Genesco Brands reflecting decreased freight and logistics costs in Fiscal 2024.
Selling and administrative expense for Fiscal 2024 increased 280 basis points as a percentage of sales compared with last year. Adjusted selling and administrative expense as a percentage of sales for Fiscal 2024 was 46.5%, up 290 basis points, compared to 43.6% last year. The increase as a percentage of sales reflects deleverage in expenses, especially compensation expense, selling salaries, occupancy and marketing expenses, largely as a result of lower store comps in Fiscal 2024.
Genesco’s GAAP operating loss for Fiscal 2024 was $13.5 million, or 0.6% of sales, compared to operating income of $93.2 million, or 3.9% of sales last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in both periods and goodwill impairment in Fiscal 2024, operating income was $16.8 million this year compared to $96.8 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was 0.7% of sales in Fiscal 2024 and 4.1% of sales last year.
The effective tax rate was -8.5% in Fiscal 2024 compared to 19.8% last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items and goodwill impairment, was 24.6% in Fiscal 2024 compared to 24.0% last year.
GAAP loss from continuing operations was $23.6 million in Fiscal 2024, compared to earnings from continuing operations of $72.2 million last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in both periods and goodwill impairment in Fiscal 2024, earnings from continuing operations were $6.4 million, or $0.56 per share, in Fiscal 2024, compared to $71.1 million, or $5.59 per share, last year.
Cash, Borrowings and Inventory
Cash as of February 3, 2024 was $35.2 million, compared with $48.0 million as of January 28, 2023. Total debt at the end of the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024 was $34.7 million compared with $44.9 million at the end of last year’s fourth quarter. Inventories decreased 17% on a year over year basis reflecting decreased inventory for Journeys and Johnston & Murphy, partially offset by an increase at Schuh.
Capital Expenditures and Store Activity
For the fourth quarter this year, capital expenditures were $10 million, related primarily to retail stores and digital and omnichannel initiatives. Depreciation and amortization was $14 million. During the quarter, the Company opened five stores and closed 24 stores. The Company ended the quarter with 1,341 stores compared with 1,410 stores at the end of the fourth quarter last year, or a decrease of 5%. Square footage was down 3% on a year-over-year basis.
Share Repurchases
The Company did not repurchase any shares during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2024. The Company repurchased 1,261,295 shares, 10% of its outstanding shares, for $32.0 million, or $25.39 per share during Fiscal 2024. The Company currently has $52.1 million remaining on its expanded share repurchase authorization announced in June 2023.

Safe Harbor Statement
This release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding future sales, earnings, operating income, gross margins, expenses, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, tax rates, store openings and closures, cost reductions, ESG progress 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,” “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 and shopping mall traffic, 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 civil disturbances; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; the imposition of tariffs on product imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; 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 in the Red Sea; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war, and other sources of market weakness in the U.K. and Republic of Ireland; the effectiveness of the Company's omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressure in the U.S. and the U.K.; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company's markets; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; risks related to public health and safety events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; retained liabilities associated with divestitures of businesses including potential liabilities under leases as the prior tenant or as a guarantor; 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; the amount and timing of share repurchases; 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; our ability to meet our sustainability, stewardship, emission and diversity, equity and inclusion related ESG projections, goals and commitments; 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; 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.

Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements.

(1) As a result of store closures in response to the COVID-19 pandemic during the first quarter of Fiscal 2022, and the Company's policy of removing any store closed for seven consecutive days from comparable sales, the Company did not include comparable sales for Fiscal 2023, except for comparable direct sales, as it felt that overall sales was a more meaningful metric last year.

Adjustments to Reported Earnings from Continuing Operations Three Months Ended February 3, 2024 and January 28, 2023 The Company believes that disclosure of earnings and earnings per share from continuing operations and operating income 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.
