Carter’s, Inc. (NYSE:CRI), the largest branded marketer of young children’s apparel in North America, today reported its fourth quarter and fiscal 2023 results.

“We saw an improving trend in the demand for our brands in the final weeks of 2023,” said Michael D. Casey, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer. “Sales improved sequentially each month in the fourth quarter and drove higher than expected earnings. Our focus on product innovation, inventory management, pricing discipline, and cash flow enabled over 20% growth in earnings per share in the fourth quarter and over $500 million of operating cash flow for the year.

“In the fourth quarter, we saw higher than planned demand in our U.S. Wholesale business driven by improved replenishment trends, on-time deliveries, and earlier demand for our new Spring 2024 product offerings. We saw lower than planned sales in our U.S. Retail and International segments largely due to sluggish traffic to our stores and websites earlier in the quarter due, we believe, to warmer weather and the related impact on demand for our fall and winter product offerings.

“For the year, our sales and earnings continued to reflect the lingering effects of inflation weighing on families with young children. We saw a noteworthy correlation between the improved consumer sentiment late in the year and the trend in our sales. That favorable trend in sales continued into the early weeks of 2024. With the continued moderation in inflation, growth in real wages, and low unemployment, we believe market conditions may improve in the year ahead.

“Carter’s continues to be the market leader in young children’s apparel with unparalleled relationships with the largest retailers in North America. Our brands are sold through over 20,000 points of sale worldwide. No other company in young children’s apparel has broader distribution capabilities serving the needs of families with young children.

“Carter’s has built a resilient multichannel business model which has historically enabled a double digit operating margin, strong operating cash flow, low leverage, and the return of excess capital to our shareholders.

“During the market disruptions in recent years caused by the global pandemic and historic inflation, we focused on higher margin sales driven by strengthening our product offerings, the closure of lower margin stores, leaner inventories, and improved price realization. We expect that these improvements to our operating disciplines will enable Carter’s to grow sales and earnings in 2024.

“We enter the new year with a better mix and level of inventories. Inventories last year were reduced by nearly 30% driven by the reduction of excess inventories that grew when inflation surged in 2022 and consumer demand slowed.

“Our growth this year is expected to be driven by our U.S. Retail and U.S. Wholesale segments. International demand for our brands is expected to be comparable to last year, with sales impacted by market disruptions in the Middle East and Europe, and inflationary pressures weighing on consumers in Canada.

“We believe Carter’s is best in class in young children’s apparel. As demonstrated in recent years, Carter’s has multiple levers that have enabled us to manage through historic periods of market volatility, and we believe we are well positioned to benefit from the market recovery in the years ahead.”

Consolidated Results

The discussion of results below is presented on an adjusted (non-GAAP) basis where noted.

Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2023 compared to Fourth Quarter of Fiscal 2022

Net sales decreased $54.3 million, or 5.9%, to $857.9 million, compared to $912.1 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Macroeconomic factors, including inflation, higher interest rates, higher consumer debt levels, and uncertain probability of recession negatively affected demand from consumers in the quarter. Unseasonably warm weather also adversely affected demand for our fall and holiday product offerings earlier in the quarter. Demand in our North American retail businesses improved during the Thanksgiving holiday shopping period and continued through the end of the year. Our fiscal fourth quarter of 2023 performance reflected declines in U.S. Retail and U.S. Wholesale segment net sales, partially offset by growth in International segment net sales. U.S. Retail and U.S. Wholesale net sales declined 8.9% and 5.1%, respectively, while International net sales grew 4.6%. U.S. Retail comparable net sales declined 10.8%. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates used for translation in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, as compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, had a favorable effect on consolidated net sales of approximately $2.2 million, or 0.2%.

Operating income increased $26.5 million, or 24.2%, to $136.1 million, compared to $109.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Operating margin increased 390 basis points to 15.9%, reflecting favorable ocean freight rates, lower inventory provisions, decreased distribution and freight costs, and lower marketing expense, partially offset by fixed cost deleverage on lower sales and higher performance-based compensation provisions. Fourth quarter fiscal 2022 results included a pre-tax charge of $9.0 million related to the write-down of the Skip Hop tradename asset recorded at the time of the acquisition of the Skip Hop business in February 2017. The growth in fourth quarter operating income of 24.2% reflected an improvement in trend in the business and compares to a 30.5% decline in operating income in the first three quarters of fiscal 2023.

Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure) increased $17.5 million, or 14.8%, to $136.0 million, compared to $118.5 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted operating margin increased 290 basis points to 15.9%, reflecting favorable ocean freight rates, lower inventory provisions, decreased distribution and freight costs, and lower marketing expense, partially offset by fixed cost deleverage on lower sales and higher performance-based compensation provisions. The growth in fourth quarter adjusted operating income of 14.8% reflects an improvement in trend in the business and compares to a 28.9% decline in adjusted operating income in the first three quarters of fiscal 2023.

Net income increased $26.3 million, or 32.8%, to $106.5 million, compared to $80.2 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Diluted earnings per share increased 37.5% to $2.90, compared to $2.11 in the prior year period. Fourth quarter fiscal 2023 results included an after-tax benefit of $5.3 million resulting from a court-approved settlement related to credit card industry anti-trust litigation. Fourth quarter fiscal 2022 results included an after-tax charge of $6.9 million related to the write-down of the Skip Hop tradename.

Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) increased $14.2 million, or 16.3%, to $101.2 million, compared to $87.0 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022. Adjusted diluted earnings per share (a non-GAAP measure) increased 20.6% to $2.76, compared to $2.29 in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022.

Fiscal Year 2023 compared to Fiscal Year 2022

Consolidated net sales decreased $267.1 million, or 8.3%, to $2.95 billion. Macroeconomic factors, as noted in the discussion of fourth quarter results above, negatively affected demand from consumers and wholesale customers. U.S. Retail, U.S. Wholesale, and International segment net sales declined 10.6%, 6.1%, and 5.1%, respectively. U.S. Retail comparable net sales declined 12.2%. Changes in foreign currency exchange rates used for translation in fiscal 2023, as compared to fiscal 2022, had an immaterial effect on consolidated net sales.

Operating income in fiscal 2023 decreased $55.8 million, or 14.7%, to $323.4 million, compared to $379.2 million in fiscal 2022. Operating margin decreased 80 basis points to 11.0%, reflecting fixed cost deleverage on lower sales, higher performance-based compensation provisions, and increased professional fees, partially offset by favorable ocean freight rates and lower inventory provisions. Fiscal 2023 results included a pre-tax charge of $4.4 million related to organizational restructuring. Fiscal 2022 results included a pre-tax charge of $9.0 million related to the write-down of the Skip Hop tradename.

Adjusted operating income (a non-GAAP measure) decreased $60.4 million, or 15.5% to $327.8 million, compared to $388.2 million in fiscal 2022. Adjusted operating margin decreased 100 basis points to 11.1%, reflecting fixed cost deleverage on lower sales, higher performance-based compensation provisions, and increased professional fees, partially offset by favorable ocean freight rates and lower inventory provisions.

Net income in fiscal 2023 decreased $17.5 million, or 7.0%, to $232.5 million, compared to $250.0 million in fiscal 2022. Diluted earnings per share decreased 1.6% to $6.24, compared to $6.34 in fiscal 2022. Fiscal 2023 results included an after-tax benefit of $5.3 million resulting from a court-approved settlement related to credit card industry anti-trust litigation and charge of $3.4 million related to organizational restructuring. Fiscal 2022 results included after-tax charges of $15.2 million related to a loss on extinguishment of debt and $6.9 million related to the write-down of the Skip Hop tradename.

Adjusted net income (a non-GAAP measure) decreased $41.4 million, or 15.2%, to $230.6 million compared to $272.0 million in fiscal 2022. Adjusted earnings per diluted share (a non-GAAP measure) decreased 10.3% to $6.19, compared to $6.90 in fiscal 2022.

Net cash provided by operations in fiscal 2023 was $529.1 million compared to $88.4 million in fiscal 2022. The improved operating cash flow principally reflected favorable changes in working capital, primarily lower inventories, and lower payments of performance-based compensation.

See the “Business Segment Results” and “Reconciliation of Adjusted Results to GAAP” sections of this release for additional disclosures regarding business segment performance and non-GAAP measures.

Organizational Restructuring and Corporate Office Lease Amendment

Since the global pandemic, the Company has undertaken several organizational restructurings which have collectively reduced corporate offices headcount by approximately 15%. Actions taken in fiscal 2023 resulted in a pre-tax charges of $6.2 million related to severance and other termination benefits and are expected to yield ongoing savings of approximately $18 million on an annualized basis beginning in 2024.

During the first quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company executed an amendment to the lease of its corporate headquarters in Atlanta, Georgia. As a result of the related reduction in leased office space, the Company recorded a net gain of approximately $1.8 million related to the partial termination of the lease in the first quarter of fiscal 2023. This action is expected to result in approximately $1 million in annualized savings beginning in 2024.

The above organizational restructuring and corporate office lease amendment charges have been included as adjustments to our fiscal 2023 reported GAAP results.

Liquidity and Financial Position

The Company’s total liquidity at the end of fiscal 2023 was $1.2 billion, comprised of cash and cash equivalents of $351 million and $846 million in unused borrowing capacity on the Company’s $850 million secured revolving credit facility.

Return of Capital

In the fourth quarter and fiscal 2023, the Company returned to shareholders a total of $60.0 million and $212.0 million, respectively, through share repurchases and cash dividends as described below.

  • Share repurchases: During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company repurchased and retired approximately 0.5 million shares of its common stock for $32.5 million at an average price of $69.10 per share. During fiscal 2023, the Company repurchased and retired approximately 1.4 million shares for $100.0 million at an average price of $69.17 per share. Fiscal 2023 share repurchases represented approximately 3.8% of common shares outstanding as of the beginning of fiscal year 2023. All shares were repurchased in open market transactions pursuant to applicable regulations for such transactions. As of December 30, 2023, the total remaining capacity under the Company’s previously announced repurchase authorizations was approximately $649.5 million.
  • Dividends: During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2023, the Company paid a cash dividend of $0.75 per common share totaling $27.5 million. In fiscal 2023, the Company paid quarterly cash dividends of $0.75 per common share each quarter totaling $112.0 million.

On February 26, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a 7% increase ($0.05 per share) to its quarterly cash dividend, to $0.80 per share, for payment on March 29, 2024, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 11, 2024.

From the inception of our return of capital initiatives in fiscal 2007 through fiscal 2023, the Company has returned a total of $3.2 billion to shareholders through share repurchases and dividends.

The Company’s Board of Directors will evaluate future distributions of capital, including dividends and share repurchases, based on a number of factors, including business conditions, the Company’s financial performance, and other considerations.

Business Outlook

We do not reconcile forward-looking adjusted operating income or adjusted diluted earnings per share to their most directly comparable GAAP measures because we cannot predict with reasonable certainty the ultimate outcome of certain components of such reconciliations that are not within our control due to factors described above, or others that may arise, without unreasonable effort. For these reasons, we are unable to assess the probable significance of the unavailable information, which could materially impact the amount of future operating income or diluted EPS, the most directly comparable GAAP metrics to adjusted operating income and adjusted diluted earnings per share, respectively.

For fiscal year 2024, the Company expects:

  • Low single-digit growth in net sales to approximately $3.0 billion ($2.95 billion in fiscal 2023);
  • Mid single-digit growth in adjusted operating income ($328 million in fiscal 2023);
  • Mid single-digit growth in adjusted diluted earnings per share ($6.19 in fiscal 2023);
  • Operating cash flow in excess of $250 million; and
  • Capital expenditures of $80 million.

Our forecast for fiscal year 2024 assumes:

  • Improved macroeconomic environment and consumer demand as the year progresses;
  • Sales and earnings growth weighted to the second half;
  • Continued conservative inventory commitments by wholesale customers;
  • Gross margin expansion, driven by lower ocean freight rates, lower product costs, and growth in higher margin retail sales;
  • Increased SG&A, reflecting higher growth-related investments and inflation, partially offset by productivity initiatives;
  • Higher interest expense and effective tax rate; and
  • Lower average number of shares outstanding.

For the first quarter of fiscal 2024, the Company expects approximately:

  • $620 million to $645 million in net sales ($696 million in Q1 fiscal 2023);
  • $35 million to $40 million in adjusted operating income ($58 million in Q1 fiscal 2023); and
  • $0.60 to $0.70 in adjusted diluted earnings per share ($0.98 Q1 fiscal 2023).

Our forecast for the first quarter of fiscal 2024 assumes:

  • A mid single-digit to high single-digit decline in U.S. Retail sales, a mid-teens decline in U.S. Wholesale sales (reflecting earlier demand for our spring product offerings and lower off-price channel sales), and a low single-digit to mid single-digit decline in International sales;
  • Gross margin expansion, reflecting lower inbound freight rates, lower product costs, and favorable channel mix;
  • Increased SG&A, driven by new store openings and higher performance-based compensation provisions;
  • Lower interest expense and effective tax rate; and
  • Lower average number of shares outstanding.

In addition to the results provided in this earnings release in accordance with GAAP, the Company has provided adjusted, non-GAAP financial measurements that present gross profit, SG&A, operating income, income taxes, net income, and net income on a diluted share basis excluding the adjustments discussed above. The Company believes these adjustments provide a meaningful comparison of the Company’s results and afford investors a view of what management considers to be the Company's core performance. These measures are used by the Company's executive management to assess the Company's performance. The adjusted, non-GAAP financial measurements included in this earnings release should not be considered as an alternative to net income or as any other measurement of performance derived in accordance with GAAP. The adjusted, non-GAAP financial measurements are presented for informational purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s future condition or results of operations.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA are supplemental financial measures that are not defined or prepared in accordance with GAAP. We define EBITDA as net income before interest, income taxes and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA is EBITDA adjusted for the items described in the footnotes (a) - (d) to the table above.

We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and believe they are frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other interested parties in the evaluation of companies in our industry. These measures are used by the Company's executive management to assess the Company's performance.

The use of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA instead of net income or cash flows from operations has limitations as an analytical tool, and you should not consider them in isolation, or as a substitute for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not represent net income or cash flow from operations as those terms are defined by GAAP and do not necessarily indicate whether cash flows will be sufficient to fund cash needs. While EBITDA, Adjusted EBITDA and similar measures are frequently used as measures of operations and the ability to meet debt service requirements, these terms are not necessarily comparable to other similarly titled captions of other companies due to the potential inconsistencies in the method of calculation. EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA do not reflect the impact of earnings or charges resulting from matters that we consider not to be indicative of our ongoing operations. Because of these limitations, EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA should not be considered as discretionary cash available to us for working capital, debt service and other purposes.

The Company evaluates its net sales on both an “as reported” and a “constant currency” basis. The constant currency presentation, which is a non-GAAP measure, excludes the impact of fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates that occurred between the comparative periods. Constant currency net sales results are calculated by translating current period net sales in local currency to the U.S. dollar amount by using the currency conversion rate for the prior comparative period. The Company consistently applies this approach to net sales for all countries where the functional currency is not the U.S. dollar. The Company believes that the presentation of net sales on a constant currency basis provides useful supplemental information regarding changes in our net sales that were not due to fluctuations in currency exchange rates and such information is consistent with how the Company assesses changes in its net sales between comparative periods.
