Company to host enhanced first quarter fiscal 2026 results conference call in June providing multi-year financial framework post closing of the joint venture transaction with WHP Global

Fourth Quarter Net revenue increased 4.7% compared to the prior year

Fourth Quarter GMV increased mid-single digits compared to the prior year

DODGEVILLE, Wis., March 19, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Lands' End, Inc. (NASDAQ:LE) ("Lands' End" or the "Company") today announced financial results for the fourth quarter and full year of fiscal 2025 ended January 30, 2026.

Andrew McLean, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "The fourth quarter was a turning point for Lands' End as we returned to topline growth, driven by our most significant businesses, and capped off a year in which we strengthened the foundation for sustainable, profitable, long-term growth."

McLean continued, "From this position of strength, we recently announced a transaction to form a new joint venture with WHP Global to monetize and build on Lands' End's intellectual property and unlock near and long-term value creation opportunities. This transformative partnership enables us to eliminate our term loan debt and provides the opportunity for additional upside from the potential conversion of Lands' End's stake in the JV in certain WHP Global monetization events. This joint venture will accelerate brand licensing growth through new categories and channels, and internationally, leveraging WHP Global's expertise and track record growing diverse and well-recognized brands like Lands' End. Additionally, it expands our strategic flexibility as an operating company to consider and pursue opportunities to enhance growth. We're confident that this transaction creates incremental, long-term, higher-return growth opportunities for Lands' End shareholders."

Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights

Gross Merchandise Value ("GMV") increased mid-single digits when compared to the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. GMV is the total order value of all Lands' End branded merchandise sold to customers through business-to-consumer and business-to-business channels, as well as the estimated retail value of the merchandise sold through third party distribution channels.
- Net revenue was $462.4 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $20.7 million or 4.7% from $441.7 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.
- U.S. Digital Segment Net revenue was $402.3 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $20.4 million or 5.3% from $381.9 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.
  - U.S. eCommerce Net revenue was $312.0 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $14.2 million or 4.8% from $297.8 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase was driven primarily by higher average unit retails, supported by continued strength in solution-based products that contributed to gross margin expansion.
  - Outfitters Net revenue was $53.7 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $4.7 million or 9.6% from $49.0 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase was driven by double-digit growth in our school uniform business, building on its strong back-to-school season, and strength in enterprise accounts.
  - Third Party net revenue was $36.6 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $1.5 million or 4.3% from $35.1 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily driven by Amazon, increasing double-digits year-over-year.
- Europe eCommerce Net revenue was $32.9 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, an increase of $2.8 million or 9.3% from $30.1 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The increase reversed a multi-quarter trend decline as key product franchises resonated with the customer across markets.
- Licensing and Retail Net revenue was $27.2 million for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, a decrease of $2.5 million or 8.4% from $29.7 million during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The decrease reflects the planned transition of certain wholesale accounts to a licensing arrangement in 2024, which resulted in lower reported revenue but higher GMV.

Gross profit was $209.6 million, an increase of $8.3 million or 4.1% from $201.3 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. Gross margin decreased approximately 30 basis points to 45.3% compared to 45.6% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The gross margin decrease was driven by tariffs partially offset by continued strength across key solution-based products and expansion of the licensing business. When excluding the impact of the unmitigated IEEPA tariffs of $7.6 million, gross margin would have increased by approximately 140 basis points to 47.0% compared to the prior year.
Selling and administrative expenses increased $11.7 million to $169.7 million or 36.7% of Net revenue, compared to $158.0 million or 35.8% of Net revenue in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. The approximately 90 basis points increase was driven primarily by higher digital marketing spend focused on new customer acquisition and incentive accruals.
Net income was $12.3 million, or $0.40 earnings per diluted share compared to Net income of $18.5 million or $0.59 earnings per diluted share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.
Adjusted net income was $23.6 million, or $0.76 earnings per diluted share, compared to an Adjusted net income of $17.7 million or $0.57 earnings per diluted share in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024, representing a $5.9 million increase, or $0.19 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA was $47.4 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025 compared to $43.7 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024.

"For the full year, we expanded gross margin, grew Adjusted EBITDA 10% to $102 million and more than doubled adjusted net income to $27 million," said Bernie McCracken, Chief Financial Officer. "The transaction with WHP Global will significantly improve our capital structure by enabling the full repayment of our term loan debt and materially reducing our interest expense. With this balance sheet strength we will have greater flexibility to evaluate and execute on opportunities to drive value creation, including from investment in the growth of our existing businesses, as well as capital allocation alternatives that can generate long-term shareholder value."

Full Year Financial Highlights:

For fiscal 2025, GMV increased low-single digits compared to fiscal 2024.
- For fiscal 2025, Net revenue was $1.34 billion, a decrease of $27.8 million or 2.0% from $1.36 billion in fiscal 2024.
- U.S. Digital Segment Net revenue was $1.16 billion for fiscal 2025, an increase of $8.3 million or 0.7% from $1.15 billion during fiscal 2024.
  - U.S. eCommerce Net revenue was $829.8 million for fiscal 2025, a decrease of $13.0 million or 1.5% from $842.8 million during fiscal 2024. Fiscal 2025 benefited from strong performance in our key franchises, resulting in gross margin expansion and partially offsetting the overall decrease. The decline primarily reflects the transition of certain products to a licensing model.
  - Outfitters Net revenue was $241.8 million for fiscal 2025, an increase of $13.6 million or 6.0% from $228.2 million during fiscal 2024. The school uniform channel increased primarily due to a strong back-to-school season driven by an influx of new customers. The business uniform channel slightly increased due to strength in select enterprise accounts.
  - Third Party Net revenue was $91.2 million for fiscal 2025, an increase of $7.7 million or 9.2% from $83.5 million during fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily due to curated product assortments across all marketplaces.
- Europe eCommerce Net revenue was $90.2 million fiscal 2025, a decrease of $12.9 million or 12.5% from $103.1 million during fiscal 2024. The decrease was primarily driven by new leadership using the first half to relaunch as a more premium brand and continued macroeconomic pressures.
- Licensing and Retail Net revenue was $82.2 million for fiscal 2025, a decrease of $23.2 million or 22.0% from $105.4 million during fiscal 2024. The decrease reflects the planned transition of certain wholesale accounts to a licensing arrangement in 2024 and the performance of U.S. Company Operated stores partially offset by licensing revenue increasing by over 20%.

Gross profit was $650.2 million, a decrease of $3.1 million or 0.5% from $653.3 million in fiscal 2024. Gross margin increased approximately 80 basis points to 48.7% compared to 47.9% in fiscal 2024. The gross margin improvement was primarily driven by continued strength across key categories and expansion of the licensing business, partially offset by tariffs. When excluding the impact of the unmitigated IEEPA tariffs of $13.0 million, gross margin would have increased by approximately 180 basis points to 49.7% compared to the prior year.
Selling and administrative expenses decreased $0.6 million to $561.2 million or 42.0% of Net revenue, compared to $561.8 million or 41.2% of Net revenue in fiscal 2024. The approximately 80 basis points increase was driven by deleveraging from lower revenues and higher digital marketing spend focused on new customer acquisition partially offset by operational efficiencies and strong cost controls across the entire business.
Net income was $5.5 million, or $0.18 earnings per diluted share compared to Net income of $6.2 million or $0.20 earnings per diluted share in fiscal 2024.
Adjusted net income was $26.8 million, or $0.86 earnings per diluted share, compared to Adjusted net income of $12.6 million or $0.40 earnings per diluted share in fiscal 2024, representing an increase of $14.3 million, or $0.46 per diluted share.
Adjusted EBITDA was $102.3 million in fiscal 2025 compared to $92.6 million in fiscal 2024.

Balance Sheet and Cash Flow Highlights

Cash and cash equivalents were $18.3 million as of January 30, 2026, compared to $18.8 million as of January 31, 2025.

Net inventory was $268.8 million as of January 30, 2026, and $265.1 million as of January 31, 2025. The 1% increase was driven by the impact of IEEPA tariffs, partially offset by actions taken to improve inventory efficiency and support speed-to-market initiatives. When excluding the fiscal 2025 impact of the unmitigated IEEPA tariffs of $9.0 million, inventory would have decreased by 2.0% compared to the prior year.

Net cash provided by operating activities was $49.6 million and $53.1 million for fiscal 2025 and fiscal 2024, respectively. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities was primarily due to tariffs, partially offset by operating income.

As of January 30, 2026, the Company had no borrowings outstanding and $122.6 million of availability under its ABL Facility, compared to no borrowings and $129.3 million of availability as of January 31, 2025. Additionally, as of January 30, 2026, the Company had $234.0 million of term loan debt outstanding compared to $247.0 million outstanding as of January 31, 2025.

As of January 30, 2026, additional purchases of up to $9.0 million could be made under the 2024 share repurchase program.

WHP Global Transaction

In January 2026, the Company announced a transaction with WHP Global to create a joint venture (the "JV") to maximize the value of Lands' End's intellectual property.

Lands' End will contribute to the JV all of its intellectual property and related assets associated with the "Lands' End" brand, including all of the license agreements entered into in connection with Lands' End's licensing business, and WHP Global will pay the Company $300 million in cash for a 50% controlling ownership stake. WHP Global will lead the JV's global licensing strategy and brand expansion, while Lands' End will retain full operational control of its existing direct to consumer and B2B businesses. Upon closing, the JV will be owned 50/50 by Lands' End and WHP Global and will be designed to maximize the value of Lands' End's intellectual property, leveraging the brand expertise and global licensee network of WHP Global's platform. Lands' End intends to use proceeds from the sale to, among other things, fully repay its outstanding term loan, which was approximately $234 million as of January 26, 2026, and for general corporate purposes.

WHP Global's licensing platform is expected to accelerate category expansion, improve partner selection, and enhance long-term royalty generation for the brand. Lands' End's existing customers, products, channels and brand presentation will remain unchanged as a result of the transaction.

Additionally, in certain WHP Global monetization events, such as a qualifying public listing or majority sale, Lands' End may have the right (and in some cases, be obligated to) exchange its interest in the JV for equity in WHP Global – at the same valuation multiple as the WHP monetization event – allowing stockholders to participate directly in WHP Global's future value creation. The Company is optimistic that WHP Global's platform will deliver strong returns to its shareholders and looks forward to potentially participating in its future upside.

Completion of the transaction is expected by the end of the Company's first quarter of fiscal 2026.

In addition, WHP Global has commenced a tender offer for up to $100 million of Lands' End shares at a price of $45.00 per share. The tender offer is subject to proration if oversubscribed and is conditioned on the closing of the IP transaction. As a result of the tender offer, WHP Global is expected to own up to approximately 7% of Lands' End's outstanding shares of common stock.

Outlook

Due to the pending transaction with WHP Global, the Company will not be providing financial guidance at this time. Following completion of the transaction, the Company expects to provide financial guidance in conjunction with the release of results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. At that time, the Company expects to provide both full year and second quarter fiscal 2026 outlooks.

Additionally, the Company will host an enhanced earnings call with the release of results for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 in June that will include a comprehensive multi-year financial framework detailing the key operating model drivers for the post-transaction business in steady state

Definitions, Reconciliations and Uses of Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to our Net income determined in accordance with GAAP, for purposes of evaluating operating performance, we report the following non-GAAP measures: Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA. Adjusted net income is also expressed on a diluted per share basis.

We believe presenting non-GAAP financial measures provides useful information to investors, allowing them to assess how the business performed excluding the effects of significant non-recurring or non-operational amounts. We believe the use of the non-GAAP financial measures facilitates comparing the results being reported against past and future results by eliminating amounts that we believe are not comparable between periods and assists investors in evaluating the effectiveness of our operations and underlying business trends in a manner that is consistent with management's own methods for evaluating business performance.

Our management uses Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA to evaluate the operating performance of our business for comparable periods and to discuss our business with our Board of Directors, institutional investors and other market participants. Adjusted EBITDA is also used as the basis for a performance measure used in executive incentive compensation.

The methods we use to calculate our non-GAAP financial measures may differ significantly from methods other companies use to compute similar measures. As a result, any non-GAAP financial measures presented herein may not be comparable to similar measures provided by other companies. Adjusted net income and Adjusted EBITDA should not be used by investors or other third parties as the sole basis for formulating investment decisions as these measures may exclude a number of important cash and non-cash recurring items.

Adjusted net income is defined as net income excluding significant non-recurring or non-operational items as set forth below. Adjusted net income is also presented on a diluted per share basis. While Adjusted net income is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance and useful to investors.

Other significant non-recurring or non-operational items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:
- Corporate restructuring and other – composed of costs related to the strategic alternative exploration as well as severance and benefit costs for the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 30, 2026 and primarily severance and benefit costs for the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025.
- Unmitigated tariff costs – unmitigated incremental product costs, net of the impact of vendor negotiations, incurred pursuant to International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA") tariffs that were subsequently ruled unlawful by the Supreme Court of the United States on February 20, 2026 for the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 30, 2026.
- Long-lived asset impairment – charges associated with the non-cash write down of certain long-lived assets for the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 30, 2026 and the 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025.
- Exit costs – charges associated to exit the kids and footwear lines of business including inventory excess and obsolescence reserves, inventory discounts and operational charges recorded in the 52 weeks ended January 30, 2026 and the 13 and 52 weeks ended January 31, 2025 in conjunction with our licensing arrangements commencing in Fiscal 2024.
- Loss (gain) on disposal of property and equipment - disposal of property and equipment for 13 and 52 weeks ended January 30, 2026 and January 31, 2025, respectively.

The following tables set forth, for the periods indicated, a reconciliation of Net income to Adjusted net income and Adjusted diluted earnings per share:

While Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP measurement, management believes that it is an important indicator of operating performance, and is useful to investors, because EBITDA excludes the effects of financings, investing activities and tax structure by eliminating the effects of interest, depreciation and income tax.

Other significant items, while periodically affecting our results, may vary significantly from period to period and have a disproportionate effect in a given period, which affects comparability of results and are described below:
