Accounting Policies [Abstract]
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES	SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Description of Business — PVH Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) constitute a global apparel company with a brand portfolio that includes TOMMY HILFIGER and Calvin Klein, which are owned, Warner’s, Olga and True&Co., which the Company owned until November 27, 2023 and Van Heusen, which the Company owned through the second quarter of 2021. The Company currently licenses Van Heusen, along with Nike and other brands, from third parties for certain product categories. The Company designs and markets branded sportswear (casual apparel), jeanswear, performance apparel, intimate apparel, underwear, swimwear, dress shirts, handbags, accessories, footwear and other related products and licenses its owned brands globally over a broad array of product categories and for use in numerous discrete jurisdictions. The Company completed the sale of its women’s intimates businesses conducted under the Warner’s, Olga and True&Co. trademarks to Basic Resources on November 27, 2023 (the “Heritage Brands intimates transaction”). Please see Note 3, “Divestitures,” for further discussion. The Company refers to its currently or previously owned and licensed trademarks, other than TOMMY HILFIGER and Calvin Klein, as its “heritage brands” and the businesses it currently operates or previously operated under the heritage brands as its “Heritage Brands business.” Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that the Company does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations include its proportionate share of the net income or loss of these entities. Please see Note 5, “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates,” for further discussion. Fiscal Year — The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to February 1. References to a year are to the Company’s fiscal year, unless the context requires otherwise. Results for 2024, 2023 and 2022 represent the 52 weeks ended February 2, 2025, 53 weeks ended February 4, 2024 and 52 weeks ended January 29, 2023, respectively. War in Ukraine — As a result of the war in Ukraine, the Company announced in March 2022 that it was temporarily closing stores and pausing commercial activities in Russia and Belarus. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company made the decision to exit from its Russia business, including the closure of its retail stores in Russia and the cessation of its wholesale operations in Russia and Belarus. Additionally, while the Company has no direct operations in Ukraine, virtually all of its wholesale customers and franchisees in Ukraine have been impacted, which has resulted in a reduction in shipments to these customers. The war in Ukraine also led to broader macroeconomic implications in 2022, including the weakening of the euro against the United States dollar, increases in fuel prices and volatility in the financial markets, as well as a decline in consumer spending. The Company assessed the impacts of the war in Ukraine on the estimates and assumptions used in preparing these consolidated financial statements, including, but not limited to, the allowance for credit losses, inventory reserves, and carrying values of long-lived assets. Based on these assessments, the Company recorded pre-tax noncash impairment charges related to long-lived assets of $43.6 million during 2022. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion of the impairments. The war in Ukraine did not have a material impact on the Company’s business in 2023 or 2024. There is uncertainty regarding the extent to which the war in Ukraine and its broader macroeconomic implications, including the potential impacts on the broader European market and supply chains globally, will further impact the Company’s business, financial condition and results of operations. Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates due to risks and uncertainties, including the impacts of inflationary pressures globally, potential new or increased tariffs, supply chain disruptions, and the war in Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war and their broader macroeconomic implications, on the Company’s business. In addition, there is significant uncertainty surrounding how the Company’s business may be impacted in the future as a result of China’s Ministry of Commerce’s (“MOFCOM”) decision to place the Company on the List of Unreliable Entities (“UEL”). Please see Note 21, “Other Comments,” for further discussion. Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents also includes amounts due from third party credit card processors for the settlement of customer debit and credit card transactions that are collectible in one week or less. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at February 2, 2025 consisted principally of bank deposits and investments in money market funds. Accounts Receivable — Trade receivables, as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, are net of allowances. Costs associated with allowable customer markdowns and operational chargebacks, net of the expected recoveries, are part of the provision for allowances included in accounts receivable. These provisions result from seasonal negotiations, historical experience, and an evaluation of current market conditions. The Company records an allowance for credit losses as a reduction to its trade receivables for amounts that the Company does not expect to recover. An allowance for credit losses is determined through an analysis of the aging of accounts receivable and assessments of collectability based on historical trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers and licensees, including any known or anticipated bankruptcies, and an evaluation of current economic conditions as well as the Company’s expectations of conditions in the future. The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables once collection efforts have been exhausted and third parties confirm the balance is not recoverable. As of February 2, 2025 and February 4, 2024, the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables was $22.4 million and $41.1 million, respectively. The $18.7 million decrease in the allowance was primarily due to the write-off of a trade receivables allowance in connection with the finalization of bankruptcy proceedings for a wholesale customer. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — The Company assesses the recoverability of goodwill annually, at the beginning of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment testing for goodwill is done at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment, called a component. However, two or more components of an operating segment will be aggregated and deemed a single reporting unit if the components have similar economic characteristics. The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a more detailed quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test for any reporting unit. When performing the quantitative test, an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value (the fair value of a reporting unit is estimated using a discounted cash flow model, which includes assumptions such as the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, gross margin, operating expenses and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization margin). The impairment loss recognized is equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, but is limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit. The Company recorded pre-tax noncash goodwill impairment charges of $417.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 as a result of its annual goodwill impairment test. The impairment charge was included in goodwill impairment in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The impairment was non-operational and driven primarily by a significant increase in discount rates, as a result of the then-current economic conditions. The Company did not record any goodwill impairments in 2024 or 2023. Please see Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for further discussion. Indefinite-lived intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually, at the beginning of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may be impaired. Indefinite-lived intangible assets and intangible assets with finite lives are tested for impairment prior to assessing the recoverability of goodwill. The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a more detailed quantitative impairment test for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test. When performing the quantitative test, an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, which is generally determined using the estimated discounted cash flows associated with the asset’s use and includes assumptions such as the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate and a profitability metric that depends on the type of intangible asset. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are tested for impairment along with other long-lived assets when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company did not record any intangible asset impairments in 2024, 2023 or 2022. Please see Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for further discussion. Asset Impairments — The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets (excluding goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets) when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. To test long-lived assets for impairment, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows and the related fair value of each asset. Undiscounted future cash flows are estimated using current sales trends and other factors and, in the case of operating lease right-of-use assets, using estimated sublease income or market rents. If the sum of such undiscounted future cash flows is less than the asset’s carrying amount, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion. Inventories — Inventories are comprised principally of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, except for certain retail inventories in North America that are stated at the lower of cost or market using the retail inventory method. Cost for all wholesale inventories in North America and certain wholesale and retail inventories in Asia is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost for all other inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company reviews current business trends and forecasts, inventory aging and discontinued merchandise categories to determine adjustments that it estimates will be needed to liquidate existing clearance inventories and record inventories at either the lower of cost or net realizable value or the lower of cost or market using the retail inventory method, as applicable. Property, Plant and Equipment — Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is generally provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets on a straight-line basis. The range of useful lives is principally as follows: Buildings and building improvements – 15 to 40 years; machinery, software and equipment – two to 10 years; furniture and fixtures – two to 10 years; and fixtures located in shop-in-shop/concession locations and their related costs – three to four years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. Major additions and improvements that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized, and repairs and maintenance are charged to operations in the period incurred. Depreciation expense totaled $243.9 million, $259.9 million and $255.4 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cloud Computing Arrangements — The Company incurs costs to implement cloud computing arrangements that are hosted by a third party vendor. Implementation costs incurred during the application development stage of a project are capitalized and amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement on a straight-line basis. The Company capitalized $14.6 million and $16.3 million of costs incurred in 2024 and 2023, respectively, to implement cloud computing arrangements, primarily related to digital and consumer data platforms, and platforms that support its global supply chain. Amortization expense relating to cloud computing arrangements totaled $20.1 million, $16.9 million and $10.6 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cloud computing costs of $43.4 million and $49.2 million were included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 2, 2025 and February 4, 2024, respectively. Leases — The Company leases approximately 1,400 Company-operated free-standing retail store locations across more than 35 countries, generally with initial lease terms of three to 10 years. The Company also leases warehouses, distribution centers, showrooms and office space, generally with initial lease terms of 10 to 20 years, as well as certain equipment and other assets, generally with initial lease terms of one to five years. The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on the information available at the lease commencement date, as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases. The Company’s incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the lease, the economic environment of the lease, and the effect of collateralization. Certain leases include one or more renewal options, generally for the same period as the initial term of the lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion and the Company typically determines that exercise of these renewal options is not reasonably certain until executed. As a result, the Company does not include the renewal option period in the expected lease term and the associated lease payments are not included in the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Certain leases also contain termination options with an associated penalty. Generally, the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise these options and as such, they are not included in the determination of the initial expected lease term. Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and long-term portion of operating lease liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the operating lease right-of-use assets have been previously impaired. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term. Leases generally provide for payments of nonlease components, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other costs associated with the leased property. For lease agreements entered into or modified after February 3, 2019, the Company accounts for lease components and nonlease components together as a single lease component and, as such, includes fixed payments of nonlease components in the measurement of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Variable lease payments, such as percentage rentals based on location sales, periodic adjustments for inflation, reimbursement of real estate taxes, any variable common area maintenance and any other variable costs associated with the leased property are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs and are not recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants. Please see Note 15, “Leases,” for further discussion. Revenue Recognition — Revenue is recognized upon the transfer of control of products or services to the Company’s customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which it expects to be entitled in exchange for those products or services. Please see Note 2, “Revenue,” for further discussion. Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses — Costs associated with the production and procurement of product are included in cost of goods sold, including inbound freight costs, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs and other product procurement related charges, as well as the amounts recognized from foreign currency forward contracts as the underlying inventory hedged by such forward contracts is sold. Generally, all other expenses, excluding non-service related pension and post retirement (income) costs, interest expense (income) and income taxes, are included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, including warehousing and distribution expenses, as the predominant expenses associated therewith are general and administrative in nature, including rent, utilities, payroll and depreciation and amortization. Warehousing and distribution expenses, which are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, totaled $335.2 million, $357.2 million and $357.9 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Shipping and Handling Fees — Shipping and handling fees that are billed to customers are included in net sales. Shipping and handling costs incurred by the Company are accounted for as fulfillment activities and are recorded in SG&A expenses. Marketing — Marketing costs are expensed as incurred and are included in SG&A expenses. Marketing expenses, which are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, totaled $480.0 million, $533.9 million and $492.1 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Costs associated with cooperative advertising programs, under which the Company shares the cost of a customer’s advertising expenditures, are treated as a reduction of revenue. Income Taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized. Significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amount of deductible and taxable items, evaluating tax positions and determining the income tax provision. The Company recognizes income tax benefits only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be fully sustained upon review by taxing authorities, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. If the recognition threshold is met, the Company measures the tax benefit at the largest amount with a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. For tax positions that are 50 percent or less likely of being sustained upon audit, the Company does not recognize any portion of that benefit in the financial statements. When the outcome of these tax matters changes, the change in estimate impacts the provision for income taxes in the period that such a determination is made. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the Company’s income tax provision. The Company elected to recognize the tax on Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) as a period expense in the year the tax is incurred. Financial Instruments — The Company currently uses foreign currency forward contracts, non-derivative instruments (the par value of certain of its foreign-denominated debt) and derivative instruments (cross-currency swap contracts) to hedge against a portion of its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company records the foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swap contracts at fair value in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and does not net the related assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of foreign currency forward contracts designated as effective hedging instruments and changes in the carrying value of the foreign currency borrowings are recorded in equity as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”). Cash flows from the Company’s hedges are presented in the same category in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the items being hedged. The Company evaluates the effectiveness of its derivative and non-derivative instruments at inception and each quarter thereafter. The Company records immediately in earnings changes in the fair value of hedges that are not designated as effective hedging instruments. Please see Note 9, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” and Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion. Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions — The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in United States dollars. If the functional currency of a foreign subsidiary is not the United States dollar, assets and liabilities are translated to United States dollars at the closing exchange rate in effect at the applicable balance sheet date and revenue and expenses are translated to United States dollars at the average exchange rate for the applicable period. The resulting translation adjustments are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income and in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within AOCL. Gains and losses on the revaluation of intercompany loans made between foreign subsidiaries that are of a long-term investment nature are included in AOCL. Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of a particular entity, not including inventory purchases, are principally included in SG&A expenses and totaled a loss of $13.8 million, $30.2 million and $13.1 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Pension and Benefit Plans — Employee pension benefits earned during the year, as well as interest on the projected benefit obligations or accumulated benefit obligations, are accrued quarterly. The expected return on plan assets is recognized quarterly and determined at the beginning of the year by applying the expected long-term rate of return on assets to the actual fair value of plan assets adjusted for expected benefit payments, contributions and plan expenses. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in the Company’s operating results in the year in which they occur. These gains and losses include the difference between the actual return on plan assets and the expected return that was recognized quarterly, as well as the change in the projected benefit obligation caused by actual experience and updated actuarial assumptions differing from those assumptions used to record service and interest cost throughout the year. Actuarial gains and losses are measured at least annually at the end of the Company’s fiscal year and, as such, are generally recorded during the fourth quarter of each year. The service cost component of net benefit cost is recorded in SG&A expenses and the other components of net benefit cost, which typically include interest cost, actuarial (gain) loss and expected return on plan assets, are recorded in non-service related pension and postretirement (cost) income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Please see Note 11, “Retirement and Benefit Plans,” for further discussion of the Company’s pension and benefit plans. Stock-Based Compensation — The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and non-employee directors, net of actual forfeitures, as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values. Please see Note 12, “Stock-Based Compensation,” for further discussion. Recently Adopted Accounting Guidance — The Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued in September 2022 Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2022-04, Liabilities — Supplier Finance Programs (Subtopic 405-50): Disclosure of Supplier Finance Program Obligations. The guidance requires disclosures that increase the transparency surrounding the use of supplier finance programs, including the key terms of the programs, and information about the obligations under these programs, including a rollforward of those obligations. The update does not affect the recognition, measurement, or financial statement presentation of obligations covered by supplier finance programs. The Company adopted the update in the first quarter of 2023 on a retrospective basis, except for the rollforward disclosure, which the Company adopted on a prospective basis beginning with its 2024 annual consolidated financial statements. The adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the guidance only pertains to financial statement footnote disclosures. Please see Note 21, “Other Comments,” for the Company’s disclosures pertaining to this update. The FASB issued in November 2023 ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures. The guidance requires disclosure on an annual and interim basis of incremental segment information, primarily to enhance disclosures about significant segment expenses. The Company adopted the update on a retrospective basis beginning with its 2024 annual consolidated financial statements. The adoption did not have any impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements as the guidance only pertains to financial statement footnote disclosures. Please see Note 19, “Segment Data,” for the Company’s disclosures pertaining to this update. Accounting Guidance Issued But Not Adopted as of February 2, 2025 — The FASB issued in December 2023 ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures. The guidance is intended to improve the transparency of income tax disclosures by requiring (i) consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and (ii) income taxes paid disaggregated by jurisdiction. It also includes certain other amendments to improve the effectiveness of income tax disclosures. The update will be effective for the Company beginning with its 2025 annual consolidated financial statements, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the guidance on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the update to determine the impact the adoption will have on its footnote disclosure to its consolidated financial statements. The FASB issued in November 2024 ASU 2024-03, Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses. The guidance requires disclosure, on an annual and interim basis, about the types of costs and expenses included in certain income statement expense captions. The update will be effective for the Company beginning with its 2027 annual consolidated financial statements and interim statements thereafter, with early adoption permitted. Entities are required to apply the guidance on a prospective basis, with retrospective application permitted. The Company is currently evaluating the update to determine the impact the adoption will have on its footnote disclosure to its consolidated financial statements.

The Company currently licenses Van Heusen, along with Nike and other brands, from third parties for certain product categories. The Company designs and markets branded sportswear (casual apparel), jeanswear, performance apparel, intimate apparel, underwear, swimwear, dress shirts, handbags, accessories, footwear and other related products and licenses its owned brands globally over a broad array of product categories and for use in numerous discrete jurisdictions. The Company completed the sale of its women’s intimates businesses conducted under the Warner’s, Olga and True&Co. trademarks to Basic Resources on November 27, 2023 (the “Heritage Brands intimates transaction”). Please see Note 3, “Divestitures,” for further discussion. The Company refers to its currently or previously owned and licensed trademarks, other than TOMMY HILFIGER and Calvin Klein, as its “heritage brands” and the businesses it currently operates or previously operated under the heritage brands as its “Heritage Brands business.”

Principles of Consolidation — The consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) and include the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that the Company does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations include its proportionate share of the net income or loss of these entities. Please see Note 5, “Investments in Unconsolidated Affiliates,” for further discussion.

Fiscal Year — The Company uses a 52-53 week fiscal year ending on the Sunday closest to February 1. References to a year are to the Company’s fiscal year, unless the context requires otherwise. Results for 2024, 2023 and 2022 represent the 52 weeks ended February 2, 2025, 53 weeks ended February 4, 2024 and 52 weeks ended January 29, 2023, respectively.

War in Ukraine — As a result of the war in Ukraine, the Company announced in March 2022 that it was temporarily closing stores and pausing commercial activities in Russia and Belarus. In the second quarter of 2022, the Company made the decision to exit from its Russia business, including the closure of its retail stores in Russia and the cessation of its wholesale operations in Russia and Belarus. Additionally, while the Company has no direct operations in Ukraine, virtually all of its wholesale customers and franchisees in Ukraine have been impacted, which has resulted in a reduction in shipments to these customers. The war in Ukraine also led to broader macroeconomic implications in 2022, including the weakening of the euro against the United States dollar, increases in fuel prices and volatility in the financial markets, as well as a decline in consumer spending.

The Company assessed the impacts of the war in Ukraine on the estimates and assumptions used in preparing these consolidated financial statements, including, but not limited to, the allowance for credit losses, inventory reserves, and carrying values of long-lived assets. Based on these assessments, the Company recorded pre-tax noncash impairment charges related to long-lived assets of $43.6 million during 2022. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion of the impairments. The war in Ukraine did not have a material impact on the Company’s business in 2023 or 2024.

Use of Estimates — The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from the estimates due to risks and uncertainties, including the impacts of inflationary pressures globally, potential new or increased tariffs, supply chain disruptions, and the war in Ukraine and the Israel-Hamas war and their broader macroeconomic implications, on the Company’s business. In addition, there is significant uncertainty surrounding how the Company’s business may be impacted in the future as a result of China’s Ministry of Commerce’s (“MOFCOM”) decision to place the Company on the List of Unreliable Entities (“UEL”). Please see Note 21, “Other Comments,” for further discussion.

Cash and Cash Equivalents — The Company considers all highly liquid investments with original maturities of three months or less when purchased to be cash equivalents. Cash equivalents also includes amounts due from third party credit card processors for the settlement of customer debit and credit card transactions that are collectible in one week or less. The Company’s cash and cash equivalents at February 2, 2025 consisted principally of bank deposits and investments in money market funds.

Accounts Receivable — Trade receivables, as presented in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets, are net of allowances. Costs associated with allowable customer markdowns and operational chargebacks, net of the expected recoveries, are part of the provision for allowances included in accounts receivable. These provisions result from seasonal negotiations, historical experience, and an evaluation of current market conditions.

The Company records an allowance for credit losses as a reduction to its trade receivables for amounts that the Company does not expect to recover. An allowance for credit losses is determined through an analysis of the aging of accounts receivable and assessments of collectability based on historical trends, the financial condition of the Company’s customers and licensees, including any known or anticipated bankruptcies, and an evaluation of current economic conditions as well as the Company’s expectations of conditions in the future. The Company writes off uncollectible trade receivables once collection efforts have been exhausted and third parties confirm the balance is not recoverable. As of February 2, 2025 and February 4, 2024, the allowance for credit losses on trade receivables was $22.4 million and $41.1 million, respectively. The $18.7 million decrease in the allowance was primarily due to the write-off of a trade receivables allowance in connection with the finalization of bankruptcy proceedings for a wholesale customer.

Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets — The Company assesses the recoverability of goodwill annually, at the beginning of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may be impaired. Impairment testing for goodwill is done at the reporting unit level. A reporting unit is defined as an operating segment or one level below the operating segment, called a component. However, two or more components of an operating segment will be aggregated and deemed a single reporting unit if the components have similar economic characteristics.

The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a more detailed quantitative goodwill impairment test. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative test for any reporting unit. When performing the quantitative test, an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the reporting unit, including goodwill, exceeds its fair value (the fair value of a reporting unit is estimated using a discounted cash flow model, which includes assumptions such as the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate, gross margin, operating expenses and earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization margin). The impairment loss recognized is equal to the amount by which the carrying amount exceeds the fair value, but is limited to the total amount of goodwill allocated to that reporting unit.

The Company recorded pre-tax noncash goodwill impairment charges of $417.1 million in the third quarter of 2022 as a result of its annual goodwill impairment test. The impairment charge was included in goodwill impairment in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations. The impairment was non-operational and driven primarily by a significant increase in discount rates, as a result of the then-current economic conditions. The Company did not record any goodwill impairments in 2024 or 2023. Please see Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for further discussion.

Indefinite-lived intangible assets not subject to amortization are tested for impairment annually, at the beginning of the third quarter of each fiscal year, and between annual tests if an event occurs or circumstances change that would indicate that it is more likely than not that the carrying amount may be impaired. Indefinite-lived intangible assets and intangible assets with finite lives are tested for impairment prior to assessing the recoverability of goodwill. The Company assesses qualitative factors to determine whether it is necessary to perform a more detailed quantitative impairment test for its indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company may elect to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to the quantitative impairment test. When performing the quantitative test, an impairment loss is recognized if the carrying amount of the asset exceeds the fair value of the asset, which is generally determined using the estimated discounted cash flows associated with the asset’s use and includes assumptions such as the weighted average cost of capital, revenue growth rate and a profitability metric that depends on the type of intangible asset. Intangible assets with finite lives are amortized over their estimated useful lives and are tested for impairment along with other long-lived assets when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. The Company did not record any intangible asset impairments in 2024, 2023 or 2022. Please see Note 6, “Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets,” for further discussion.

Asset Impairments — The Company reviews for impairment of long-lived assets (excluding goodwill and other indefinite-lived intangible assets) when events and circumstances indicate that the assets might be impaired. To test long-lived assets for impairment, the Company estimates the undiscounted future cash flows and the related fair value of each asset. Undiscounted future cash flows are estimated using current sales trends and other factors and, in the case of operating lease right-of-use assets, using estimated sublease income or market rents. If the sum of such undiscounted future cash flows is less than the asset’s carrying amount, the Company recognizes an impairment charge equal to the difference between the carrying amount of the asset and its estimated fair value. Please see Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion.

Inventories — Inventories are comprised principally of finished goods and are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, except for certain retail inventories in North America that are stated at the lower of cost or market using the retail inventory method. Cost for all wholesale inventories in North America and certain wholesale and retail inventories in Asia is determined using the first-in, first-out method. Cost for all other inventories is determined using the weighted average cost method. The Company reviews current business trends and forecasts, inventory aging and discontinued merchandise categories to determine adjustments that it estimates will be needed to liquidate existing clearance inventories and record inventories at either the lower of cost or net realizable value or the lower of cost or market using the retail inventory method, as applicable.

Property, Plant and Equipment — Property, plant and equipment is stated at cost less accumulated depreciation. Depreciation is generally provided over the estimated useful lives of the related assets on a straight-line basis. The range of useful lives is principally as follows: Buildings and building improvements – 15 to 40 years; machinery, software and equipment – two to 10 years; furniture and fixtures – two to 10 years; and fixtures located in shop-in-shop/concession locations and their related costs – three to four years. Leasehold improvements are depreciated using the straight-line method over the lesser of the term of the related lease or the estimated useful life of the asset. Major additions and improvements that extend the useful life of the asset are capitalized, and repairs and maintenance are charged to operations in the period incurred. Depreciation expense totaled $243.9 million, $259.9 million and $255.4 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Cloud Computing Arrangements — The Company incurs costs to implement cloud computing arrangements that are hosted by a third party vendor. Implementation costs incurred during the application development stage of a project are capitalized and amortized over the term of the hosting arrangement on a straight-line basis. The Company capitalized $14.6 million and $16.3 million of costs incurred in 2024 and 2023, respectively, to implement cloud computing arrangements, primarily related to digital and consumer data platforms, and platforms that support its global supply chain. Amortization expense relating to cloud computing arrangements totaled $20.1 million, $16.9 million and $10.6 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Cloud computing costs of $43.4 million and $49.2 million were included in prepaid expenses and other assets in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets as of February 2, 2025 and February 4, 2024, respectively.

Leases — The Company leases approximately 1,400 Company-operated free-standing retail store locations across more than 35 countries, generally with initial lease terms of three to 10 years. The Company also leases warehouses, distribution centers, showrooms and office space, generally with initial lease terms of 10 to 20 years, as well as certain equipment and other assets, generally with initial lease terms of one to five years.

The Company recognizes right-of-use assets and lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based on the present value of fixed lease payments over the expected lease term. The Company uses its incremental borrowing rates to determine the present value of fixed lease payments based on the information available at the lease commencement date, as the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable for the Company’s leases. The Company’s incremental borrowing rates are based on the term of the lease, the economic environment of the lease, and the effect of collateralization. Certain leases include one or more renewal options, generally for the same period as the initial term of the lease. The exercise of lease renewal options is generally at the Company’s sole discretion and the Company typically determines that exercise of these renewal options is not reasonably certain until executed. As a result, the Company does not include the renewal option period in the expected lease term and the associated lease payments are not included in the initial measurement of the right-of-use asset and lease liability. Certain leases also contain termination options with an associated penalty. Generally, the Company is reasonably certain not to exercise these options and as such, they are not included in the determination of the initial expected lease term.

Operating leases are included in operating lease right-of-use assets, current portion of operating lease liabilities and long-term portion of operating lease liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company recognizes operating lease expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term unless the operating lease right-of-use assets have been previously impaired. Finance leases are included in property, plant and equipment, net, accrued expenses and other liabilities in the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. Leases with an initial lease term of 12 months or less are not recorded on the balance sheet. The Company recognizes lease expense for these leases on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Leases generally provide for payments of nonlease components, such as common area maintenance, real estate taxes and other costs associated with the leased property. For lease agreements entered into or modified after February 3, 2019, the Company accounts for lease components and nonlease components together as a single lease component and, as such, includes fixed payments of nonlease components in the measurement of the right-of-use assets and lease liabilities. Variable lease payments, such as percentage rentals based on location sales, periodic adjustments for inflation, reimbursement of real estate taxes, any variable common area maintenance and any other variable costs associated with the leased property are expensed as incurred as variable lease costs and are not recorded on the Company’s Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company’s lease agreements do not contain any material residual value guarantees or material restrictions or covenants. Please see Note 15, “Leases,” for further discussion.

Cost of Goods Sold and Selling, General and Administrative Expenses — Costs associated with the production and procurement of product are included in cost of goods sold, including inbound freight costs, purchasing and receiving costs, inspection costs and other product procurement related charges, as well as the amounts recognized from foreign currency forward contracts as the underlying inventory hedged by such forward contracts is sold. Generally, all other expenses, excluding non-service related pension and post retirement (income) costs, interest expense (income) and income taxes, are included in selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses, including warehousing and distribution expenses, as the predominant expenses associated therewith are general and administrative in nature, including rent, utilities, payroll and depreciation and amortization. Warehousing and distribution expenses, which are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, totaled $335.2 million, $357.2 million and $357.9 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Marketing — Marketing costs are expensed as incurred and are included in SG&A expenses. Marketing expenses, which are subject to exchange rate fluctuations, totaled $480.0 million, $533.9 million and $492.1 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Costs associated with cooperative advertising programs, under which the Company shares the cost of a customer’s advertising expenditures, are treated as a reduction of revenue.

Income Taxes — Deferred tax assets and liabilities are recognized for temporary differences between the tax bases of assets and liabilities and their reported amounts in the consolidated financial statements. Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using enacted tax rates expected to apply in the periods in which those temporary differences are expected to be recovered or settled. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of a change in tax rates is recognized in the period that includes the enactment date. Valuation allowances are established when necessary to reduce deferred tax assets to the amounts more likely than not to be realized.

Significant judgment is required in assessing the timing and amount of deductible and taxable items, evaluating tax positions and determining the income tax provision. The Company recognizes income tax benefits only when it is more likely than not that the tax position will be fully sustained upon review by taxing authorities, including resolution of related appeals or litigation processes, if any. If the recognition threshold is met, the Company measures the tax benefit at the largest amount with a greater than 50 percent likelihood of being realized upon ultimate settlement. For tax positions that are 50 percent or less likely of being sustained upon audit, the Company does not recognize any portion of that benefit in the financial statements. When the outcome of these tax matters changes, the change in estimate impacts the provision for income taxes in the period that such a determination is made. The Company recognizes interest and penalties related to unrecognized tax benefits in the Company’s income tax provision.

Financial Instruments — The Company currently uses foreign currency forward contracts, non-derivative instruments (the par value of certain of its foreign-denominated debt) and derivative instruments (cross-currency swap contracts) to hedge against a portion of its exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. The Company records the foreign currency forward contracts and cross-currency swap contracts at fair value in its Consolidated Balance Sheets and does not net the related assets and liabilities. Changes in the fair value of foreign currency forward contracts designated as effective hedging instruments and changes in the carrying value of the foreign currency borrowings are recorded in equity as a component of

accumulated other comprehensive loss (“AOCL”). Cash flows from the Company’s hedges are presented in the same category in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows as the items being hedged. The Company evaluates the effectiveness of its derivative and non-derivative instruments at inception and each quarter thereafter. The Company records immediately in earnings changes in the fair value of hedges that are not designated as effective hedging instruments. Please see Note 9, “Derivative Financial Instruments,” and Note 10, “Fair Value Measurements,” for further discussion.

Foreign Currency Translation and Transactions — The consolidated financial statements of the Company are prepared in United States dollars. If the functional currency of a foreign subsidiary is not the United States dollar, assets and liabilities are translated to United States dollars at the closing exchange rate in effect at the applicable balance sheet date and revenue and expenses are translated to United States dollars at the average exchange rate for the applicable period. The resulting translation adjustments are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income as a component of other comprehensive (loss) income and in the Consolidated Balance Sheets within AOCL. Gains and losses on the revaluation of intercompany loans made between foreign subsidiaries that are of a long-term investment nature are included in AOCL. Gains and losses arising from transactions denominated in a currency other than the functional currency of a particular entity, not including inventory purchases, are principally included in SG&A expenses and totaled a loss of $13.8 million, $30.2 million and $13.1 million in 2024, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Pension and Benefit Plans — Employee pension benefits earned during the year, as well as interest on the projected benefit obligations or accumulated benefit obligations, are accrued quarterly. The expected return on plan assets is recognized quarterly and determined at the beginning of the year by applying the expected long-term rate of return on assets to the actual fair value of plan assets adjusted for expected benefit payments, contributions and plan expenses. Actuarial gains and losses are recognized in the Company’s operating results in the year in which they occur. These gains and losses include the difference between the actual return on plan assets and the expected return that was recognized quarterly, as well as the change in the projected benefit obligation caused by actual experience and updated actuarial assumptions differing from those assumptions used to record service and interest cost throughout the year. Actuarial gains and losses are measured at least annually at the end of the Company’s fiscal year and, as such, are generally recorded during the fourth quarter of each year. The service cost component of net benefit cost is recorded in SG&A expenses and the other components of net benefit cost, which typically include interest cost, actuarial (gain) loss and expected return on plan assets, are recorded in non-service related pension and postretirement (cost) income in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Please see Note 11, “Retirement and Benefit Plans,” for further discussion of the Company’s pension and benefit plans.

Stock-Based Compensation — The Company recognizes all share-based payments to employees and non-employee directors, net of actual forfeitures, as compensation expense in the consolidated financial statements based on their grant date fair values. Please see Note 12, “Stock-Based Compensation,” for further discussion.
