On a non-GAAP basis, net income per diluted share improved to $4.04 for FY24, up from $2.85 in the prior fiscal, the company said in a press release.
In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024 (Q4 FY24), G-III Apparel faced a more pronounced decrease in net sales, with a 10.5 per cent reduction to $764.8 million compared to $854.4 million in the same quarter of the previous year. However, the quarter still ended on a positive note with a net income of $28.9 million, or $0.61 per diluted share, rebounding from a substantial net loss of $261.1 million, or $5.54 per share, in the prior year’s quarter.
The non-GAAP net income per diluted share for the fourth quarter also saw a notable improvement, rising to $0.76 from $0.41 in the corresponding period last year.
“This year was important for G-III as we began to execute on our path for the future, while delivering strong profitability. We delivered strong growth with DKNY, Karl Lagerfeld and Vilebrequin, increasing penetration of our higher margin, owned brands to 47 per cent of fiscal 2024 net sales, up from 40 per cent last year. Our diverse business model and disciplined operating approach has allowed us to further strengthen our credit profile as we ended the year in a net cash position, with over $1 billion in liquidity,” said Morris Goldfarb, G-III’s chairman and chief executive officer.
