**GREENSBORO, N.C. - August 7, 2025 -** Kontoor Brands, Inc. (NYSE: KTB) today reported financial results for its second quarter ended June 28, 2025.

"Our strong second quarter results were driven by better-than-expected organic revenue growth, gross margin expansion, operating efficiency and cash generation, as well as a stronger-than-expected contribution from Helly Hansen," said Scott Baxter, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. "We welcomed Helly Hansen to the Kontoor family in June and the integration is off to a great start. We are raising our full year outlook including

------

increased investments and the absorption of higher tariffs, reflecting the resilience of our operating model, strong execution, and the momentum across the portfolio as we move into the second half of the year."

***<u>Second Quarter 2025 Income Statement Review</u>***

**Revenue** was $658 million and increased 8 percent compared to prior year. Second quarter results include the contribution from Helly Hansen, which closed on May 31, 2025.

Wrangler brand global revenue was $461 million and increased 7 percent compared to prior year. Wrangler U.S. revenue increased 9 percent, driven by an 8 percent increase in wholesale and a 16 percent increase in direct-to-consumer, including an 18 percent increase in digital. Wrangler international revenue decreased 4 percent compared to prior year, driven by a 5 percent decrease in wholesale partially offset by a 4 percent increase (flat in constant currency) in direct-to-consumer.

Lee brand global revenue was $166 million and decreased 6 percent compared to prior year, consistent with expectations, and sequentially improving from first quarter results. Lee U.S. revenue decreased 5 percent driven by a 7 percent decrease in wholesale partially offset by a 3 percent increase in direct-to-consumer, driven by a 9 percent increase in digital. Lee international revenue decreased 6 percent driven by an 11 percent decrease in wholesale partially offset by a 3 percent increase (1 percent increase in constant currency) in direct-to-consumer.

Helly Hansen global revenue was $29 million for the month of June. Sport and Workwear revenue was $17 million and $9 million, respectively. Musto brand revenue was $3 million. U.S. revenue was $5 million and international revenue was $24 million.

**Gross margin** increased 160 basis points to 46.3 percent on a reported basis and increased 120 basis points to 46.4 percent on an adjusted basis compared to prior year, including a 20 basis point benefit from the acquisition of Helly Hansen. On an organic basis, adjusted gross margin expansion was driven by the benefits from Project Jeanius, lower product costs, and direct-to-consumer and product mix, partially offset by the carryover of targeted pricing actions taken in the prior year.

**Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A)** expenses were $226 million, or 34.4 percent of revenue on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, SG&A expenses were $206 million, or 31.3 percent of revenue. On an organic basis, adjusted SG&A expenses were $185 million representing a decrease of 5 percent compared to prior year driven by a decrease in discretionary and freight expenses, partially offset by investments in demand creation.

**Operating income** was $79 million on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $100 million and increased 25 percent compared to prior year. Adjusted operating margin of 15.2 percent increased 210 basis points compared to prior year.

***<u>Balance Sheet and Liquidity Review</u>***

The Company ended the second quarter with $107 million in cash and cash equivalents, and $1.37 billion in long-term debt. During the quarter, the Company made a $25 million voluntary debt repayment.

At the end of the second quarter, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $494 million available for borrowing against this facility.

Inventory at the end of the second quarter was $686 million, including inventory from the acquisition of Helly Hansen. Excluding Helly Hansen, inventory of $482 million decreased 1 percent compared to prior year.

As previously announced, the Company's Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.52 per share, payable on September 19, 2025, to shareholders of record at the close of business on September 9, 2025.

The Company returned $29 million to shareholders through dividends during the second quarter. The Company has $215 million remaining under its authorized share repurchase program.

***<u>Updated Full Year 2025 Outlook</u>***

"We are raising our full year outlook to reflect stronger first half results, greater visibility into our tariff mitigation initiatives, and the confidence we have in the outlook for our business for the balance of the year," said Scott Baxter, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chairman of the Board of Directors. "Our ability to largely offset the impact from higher tariffs reflects the strength of our brands, the agility of our supply chain, and the benefits from Project Jeanius. To support our momentum, we are making incremental demand creation investments to fuel accelerating revenue growth and continued market share gains. While we will continue to manage the business prudently in light of the environment, the third quarter is off to an encouraging start and we enter the second half of the year from a position of strength."

The Company's outlook includes the impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs, net of mitigating actions. The Company's outlook assumes a 30 percent reciprocal tariff on China and a 20 percent reciprocal tariff on all other countries from which we source product, with the exception of Mexico. Based on currently available information, the Company's imports from Mexico to the U.S. remain exempt under USMCA.

The Company continues to expect to substantially offset the impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs over a 12 to 18 month period through a combination of targeted price increases, sourcing and production optimization within our global supply chain, inventory management, supplier partnerships and other initiatives.

The Company's updated full year 2025 outlook includes the following assumptions:

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Revenue** is now expected to be in the range of $3.09 to $3.12 billion, representing growth of approximately 19 to 20 percent compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of 17 to 19 percent growth.

------

The Company now expects Helly Hansen to contribute approximately $455 million to 2025 revenue, compared to the prior outlook of $425 million. Excluding the impact of Helly Hansen, the Company expects full year 2025 revenue growth of approximately 1 to 2 percent.

The Company expects third quarter revenue of approximately $855 million, representing an increase of approximately 28 percent compared to the prior year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adjusted gross margin** is now expected to be approximately 46.1 percent, representing an increase of 100 basis points compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of 80 to 100 basis points of gross margin expansion. Full year 2025 adjusted gross margin now includes an approximate 50 basis point impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs.

The Company expects third quarter adjusted gross margin of approximately 45.5 percent, representing an increase of 50 basis points compared to the prior year.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adjusted SG&A** is now expected to increase approximately 24 percent compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of approximately 20 percent growth. Full year 2025 adjusted SG&A now includes approximately $15 million of incremental demand creation and other investments compared to the prior outlook.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adjusted operating income** is now expected to be approximately $443 million, representing an increase of 16 percent compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of $437 to $445 million. Full year 2025 adjusted operating income now includes an approximate $30 million impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs and incremental demand creation and other investments compared to the prior outlook.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Adjusted EPS** is now expected to be approximately $5.45, representing an increase of 11 percent compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of $5.40 to $5.50. Excluding the impact of Helly Hansen, adjusted EPS is expected to be approximately $5.25, representing an increase of 7 percent compared to the prior year. This compares to the prior outlook of $5.20 to $5.30. Full year 2025 adjusted EPS now includes an approximate $0.40 impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs and incremental demand creation and other investments compared to the prior outlook.

The Company expects third quarter adjusted EPS of approximately $1.35 compared to adjusted EPS of $1.37 in the prior year. The Company's third quarter adjusted EPS outlook includes the impact from recently enacted increases in tariffs and incremental demand creation and other investments. Helly Hansen is expected to be breakeven in the third quarter, net of acquisition-related interest expense.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• **Capital expenditures** are expected to be approximately $40 million.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;• For the full year, the Company expects an **effective tax rate** of approximately 21 percent. **Interest expense** is expected to approximate $50 million. **Adjusted other expense** is

------

expected to approximate $11 million. **Average shares outstanding** are expected to be approximately 56 million.

***Non-GAAP Financial Measures***

<u>Adjusted Amounts</u> - This release refers to "adjusted" amounts. Adjustments during 2025 represent (i) acquisition and integration-related costs associated with the acquisition of Helly Hansen and (ii) restructuring and transformation costs related to business optimization activities and actions to streamline and transfer select production within our internal manufacturing network. Adjustments during 2024 represent restructuring and transformation costs related to business optimization activities and actions to streamline and transfer select production within our internal manufacturing network. Additional information regarding adjusted amounts is provided in notes to the supplemental financial information included with this release.

<u>Organic Amounts</u> - This release refers to "organic" amounts, which represent operating results excluding contributions from the Helly Hansen and Musto brands.

<u>Constant Currency</u> - This release refers to "reported" amounts in accordance with GAAP, which include translation and transactional impacts from changes in foreign currency exchange rates. This release also refers to "constant currency" amounts, which exclude the translation impact of changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Reconciliations of these non-GAAP measures to the most comparable GAAP measures are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this release that identifies and quantifies all reconciling adjustments and provides management's view of why this non-GAAP information is useful to investors. While management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternate for, reported results under GAAP. The non-GAAP measures used by the Company in this release may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies.

For forward-looking non-GAAP measures included in this filing, the Company does not provide a reconciliation to the most comparable GAAP financial measures because the information needed to reconcile these measures is unavailable due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting

------

the timing and/or amount of various items that have not yet occurred and have been excluded from adjusted measures. Additionally, estimating such GAAP measures and providing a meaningful reconciliation consistent with the Company's accounting policies for future periods requires a level of precision that is unavailable for these future periods and cannot be accomplished without unreasonable effort.

**Constant Currency Financial Information**

The Company is a global company that reports financial information in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amounts reported by the Company from translating its foreign revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results. As a supplement to our reported operating results, we present constant currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We use constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how our business performed excluding the effects of changes in the rates used to calculate foreign currency translation. Management believes this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparison of operating results and better identify trends in our businesses.

To calculate foreign currency translation on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current year period for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year (rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current year period).

These constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, reported results under GAAP. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

**Non-GAAP Financial Information:** Adjusted return on invested capital ("ROIC") is a non-GAAP measure. We believe this metric is useful in assessing the effectiveness of our capital allocation over time. ROIC may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies. Amounts herein may not recalculate due to the use of unrounded numbers.

<sup>(a)</sup> See Note 3 of "Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted and Adjusted Organic Financial Measures" at the end of this document.

<sup>(b)</sup> Operating lease interest is based upon the discount rate for each lease and recorded as a component of rent expense within "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in the Company's statements of operations. The adjustment for operating lease interest represents the add-back to earnings before interest and taxes ("EBIT") based upon the assumption that properties under our operating leases were owned or accounted for as finance leases. Operating lease interest is added back to EBIT in the adjusted ROIC calculation to account for differences in capital structure between us and other companies.

<sup>(c)</sup> Effective income tax rate adjusted for acquisition and integration-related and restructuring and transformation costs and the corresponding tax impact. See Note 3 of "Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted and Adjusted Organic Financial Measures" at the end of this document.

<sup>(d)</sup> Total of "Operating lease liabilities, current" and "Operating lease liabilities, noncurrent" in the Company's balance sheets.

<sup>(e)</sup> The average is based on the "Invested capital" at the end of the current period and at the end of the comparable prior period.

<sup>(f)</sup> Calculated as "Net income" divided by average "Debt" and "Equity." "Debt" includes the current and noncurrent portion of long-term debt as well as other short-term borrowings. The average is based on the subtotal of "Debt" and "Equity" at the end of the current period and at the end of the comparable prior period.

**Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted and Adjusted Organic Financial Measures**

Management uses non-GAAP financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. In addition, adjusted EBITDA is a key financial measure for the Company's shareholders and financial leaders, as the Company's debt financing agreements require the measurement of adjusted EBITDA, along with other measures, in connection with the Company's compliance with debt covenants. While management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be considered supplemental in nature and should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternate for, reported results under GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP measures may be different from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
