PARAMUS, N.J.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Movado Group, Inc. (NYSE: MOV) today announced third quarter and nine-month results for the periods ended October 31, 2024.
Efraim Grinberg, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, stated, “We continued to advance our strategy in the third quarter, unveiling a captivating Movado brand-building marketing campaign in September, launching iconic product families across our brand portfolio, and delivering solid growth in our digital channel, all while maintaining a strong balance sheet. Our financial results were held back due to tighter inventory management by our retail partners in the U.S. and Europe and our planned increase in investment spend to support future growth. While we now expect net sales and operating income at the lower end of our previous guidance range, we have taken steps to align our expense base with expected sales, making the difficult decision to reduce headcount as part of a cost-savings initiative. This is expected to generate approximately $6.5 million in annualized savings.”
“As we look ahead, our highest priority is to meaningfully improve profitability. We are finalizing plans for fiscal 2026 that focus on efficient brand-building initiatives, key growth opportunities such as jewelry and emerging markets, and a more streamlined expense base,” Mr. Grinberg continued. “We continue to enjoy a strong financial position, concluding the quarter with $181.5 million in cash and no debt, positioning us well to execute our strategic plans moving forward. We are confident in our ability to deliver sustained profitable growth and increased value for our shareholders.”

In this press release, references to “adjusted” results exclude the impact of the above charges. Please refer to the attached GAAP and Non-GAAP measures table for a detailed reconciliation of the Company’s reported results to its adjusted, non-GAAP results.
Third Quarter Fiscal 2025 Results (See attached table for GAAP and Non-GAAP measures)
- Net sales decreased 2.6% (a 3.5% decline on a constant-dollar basis) to $182.7 million compared to $187.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in net sales reflected unfavorable sales mix and decreased volumes from the Company’s wholesale customers, mainly in the United States, partially offset by an increase in online retail in the United States and the positive impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. U.S. net sales decreased 7.1% as compared to the third quarter of last year. International sales increased 0.4% as compared to the third quarter of last year.
- Gross profit was $98.4 million, or 53.8% of net sales, compared to $102.3 million, or 54.5% of net sales, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of the unfavorable impact of sales mix, the decreased leveraging of higher fixed costs as a result of lower sales, and a negative impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
- Operating expenses were $91.8 million compared to $81.6 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Adjusted operating expenses for the third quarter of fiscal 2025, which excludes costs of $2.7 million related to the cost-savings initiative, were $89.1 million. The increase in operating expenses relative to the third quarter of fiscal 2024 was primarily due to higher marketing expenses and an increase in payroll-related expenses.
- Operating income was $6.6 million compared to $20.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Adjusted operating income, which excludes costs of $2.7 million related to the cost-savings initiative, was $9.3 million for the third quarter of fiscal 2025.
- The Company recorded a tax provision of $2.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 31.5%, as compared to a tax provision of $4.5 million, or an effective tax rate of 20.4%, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The adjusted tax provision was $2.0 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, which excludes the impact of the cost-savings initiative as well as the tax impact of the repatriation of foreign earnings, primarily related to foreign currency gains. The adjusted tax rate in the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was 18.4%.
- Net income was $5.1 million, or $0.22 per diluted share, compared to net income of $17.4 million, or $0.77 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Adjusted net income for the fiscal 2025 period was $8.3 million, or $0.37 per diluted share, which excludes the third quarter items listed above in the Non-GAAP Items section after the associated tax effects.
Nine Months Fiscal 2025 Results (See attached table for GAAP and Non-GAAP measures)
- Net sales for the first nine months of fiscal 2025 decreased 2.9% to $478.7 million (a 3.2% decrease on a constant dollar basis) compared to $493.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. The decrease in net sales reflected unfavorable sales mix and decreased volumes from the Company’s wholesale customers, mainly in the United States, partially offset by an increase in online retail in the United States and the positive impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates. U.S. net sales decreased 4.5% as compared to the first nine months of last year. International net sales decreased 1.7% as compared to the first nine months of last year.
- Gross profit was $260.3 million, or 54.4% of net sales, compared to $273.6 million, or 55.5% of net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. The decrease in gross margin percentage was primarily the result of the unfavorable impact of sales mix, the decreased leveraging of higher fixed costs as a result of lower sales, and a negative impact of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates.
- Operating expenses were $247.4 million, as compared to $232.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. Adjusted operating expenses for the first nine months of fiscal 2025, which excludes the costs of $2.7 million related to the cost-savings initiative, were $244.6 million. This increase in operating expenses was primarily due to higher marketing expenses and an increase in payroll-related expenses.
- Operating income was $12.9 million compared to operating income of $41.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. Adjusted operating income, which excludes costs of $2.7 million related to the cost-savings initiative, was $15.6 million for the first nine months of fiscal 2025.
- The Company recorded a tax provision of $5.7 million, or an effective tax rate of 31.7%, as compared to a provision of $9.9 million, or an effective tax rate of 22.0%, in the first nine months of fiscal 2024. The adjusted tax provision was $5.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2025, which excludes the impact of the cost-savings initiative as well as the tax impact of the repatriation of foreign earnings, primarily related to foreign currency gains. The adjusted tax rate for the first nine months of fiscal 2025 was 25.0%.
- Net income was $11.7 million, or $0.52 per diluted share, compared to net income of $34.6 million, or $1.53 per diluted share, in the first nine months of last year. Adjusted net income for the fiscal 2025 period was $14.9 million, or $0.66 per diluted share, which excludes the items listed above in the Non-GAAP Items section after the associated tax effects.
Fiscal 2025 Outlook
The Company is revising its previously provided outlook to reflect third-quarter results and the expected continuation of a challenging environment, including the impact of retailers continuing to tightly manage inventories in both the U.S. and Europe.
For Fiscal Year 2025, the Company currently expects:
- Net sales of approximately $665.0 million, the low end of its previous expectation of a range of approximately $665.0 million to $675.0 million;
- Gross profit of approximately 54% of net sales;
- Operating income near $23.0 million, representing the low end of its previous expectation of $23.0 million to $26.0 million; this revised outlook contemplates approximately $18 million of incremental investments in brand-building initiatives as compared to last year;
- An effective tax rate of approximately 25%; and
- Earnings of $0.90 per diluted share, the low end of its previous expectation of $0.90 to $1.00 per diluted share.
The Company noted that its fiscal 2025 outlook excludes $2.7 million of costs, $2.2 million after-tax, related to its cost-savings initiative. This outlook does not contemplate further deterioration due to the impact of economic uncertainty and assumes no further significant fluctuations from prevailing foreign currency exchange rates.
As the Company prepares its plan for fiscal 2026, it is focused on delivering a meaningful improvement in profitability versus its expected outlook for fiscal 2025. This expectation includes the $6.5 million in annualized savings from its cost savings initiative as well as additional activities to garner efficiencies across its enterprise. The Company expects to share additional information about its fiscal 2026 guidance when it reports fourth quarter fiscal 2025 results.
Quarterly Dividend and Share Repurchase Program
The Company also announced today that on December 5, 2024, the Board of Directors approved the payment on December 30, 2024, of a cash dividend in the amount of $0.35 for each share of the Company’s outstanding common stock and class A common stock held by shareholders of record as of the close of business on December 16, 2024.
During the first nine months of fiscal 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 120,000 shares under its November 23, 2021, share repurchase program. As of October 31, 2024, the Company had $15.2 million remaining available under the share repurchase program which expired on November 23, 2024.
On December 5, 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors approved a new share buyback program under which the Company may purchase up to $50 million of its outstanding common shares. The authorization expires on December 5, 2027, subject to extension or earlier termination by the Board of Directors.

In this release, the Company presents certain financial measures that are not calculated according to generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“GAAP”). Specifically, the Company is presenting adjusted operating expenses, adjusted operating income, adjusted pre-tax income, adjusted tax provision and adjusted net income, which are operating expenses, operating income, pre-tax income, tax provision and net income, respectively, under GAAP, adjusted to eliminate the establishment of a provision associated with a cost-savings initiative and the impact of the repatriation of foreign earnings. The Company believes these adjusted measures are useful because they give investors information about the Company’s financial performance without the effect of certain items that the Company believes are not characteristic of its usual operations. Additionally, the Company is presenting constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how its business performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations in the current period. Comparisons of financial results on a constant dollar basis are calculated by translating each foreign currency at the same U.S. dollar exchange rate as in effect for the prior-year period for both periods being compared. The Company believes this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparisons of operating results. These non-GAAP financial measures are designed to complement the GAAP financial information presented in this release. The non-GAAP financial measures presented should not be considered in isolation from or as a substitute for the comparable GAAP financial measures, and the methods of their calculation may differ substantially from similarly titled measures used by other companies.
