This release refers to “adjusted” amounts and “constant currency” amounts, which are further described in the Non-GAAP Financial Measures section below. All per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis.
Fourth Quarter 2020 Income Statement Review
Revenue increased to $661 million, a 1 percent increase over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis and flat in constant currency.
Revenue increases were primarily driven by strength in Digital, including own.com and digital wholesale, as well as improved performance across the Wrangler U.S. wholesale business and accelerating trends in International markets. These gains were somewhat offset by COVID-19 impacts on select wholesale distribution. Additionally, the Company made the strategic decision to exit 38 VF Outlet™ stores and discontinue the sale of third-party branded merchandise in all stores, and to transition to a new licensed business model in India. These decisions are consistent with the Company’s ongoing commitment to optimize its distribution strategy, yielding more profitable TSR-accretive growth over time. The impact of these actions was offset by the benefit of sales during the 53rd week in the period.
U.S. revenue was $520 million, increasing 1 percent over the same period in the prior year. The increase was driven by growth in Wrangler wholesale, new business development wins and strength in Digital, with own.com increasing 50 percent and digital wholesale increasing 75 percent. These increases were somewhat offset by impacts of the ongoing headwinds from COVID-19.
International revenue was $141 million, increasing 4 percent over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis, with Wrangler International up 5 percent and Lee International up 3 percent. On a constant currency basis, International revenue was flat compared to the same period in the prior year. The Europe and China businesses experienced continued sequential revenue improvements, with China increasing 11 percent and Europe increasing 7 percent on a reported basis. These increases were somewhat offset by impacts of the ongoing headwinds from COVID-19.
Wrangler brand global revenue increased to $448 million, a 7 percent increase over the same period in the prior year on a reported and constant currency basis. Wrangler U.S. revenue increased 8 percent, driven by increases in Digital and strength in the core U.S. wholesale and Western businesses.
Lee brand global revenue increased to $204 million, a 1 percent increase over the same period in the prior year on a reported basis and flat in constant currency. Lee U.S. revenue was flat in the quarter with strength from improving sell through of new programs and increases in Digital, largely offset by the ongoing impacts of COVID-19 on select distribution and quality-of-sales actions during the quarter.
Other global revenue declined 75 percent compared to the same period in the prior year to $9 million driven by impacts from the strategic actions related to VF Outlet stores, as well as planned reductions in the sale of goods manufactured for third parties and the Rock & Republic® brand.
Gross margin increased 180 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year to 42.5 percent of revenue on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, gross margin increased 230 basis points to 43.2 percent of revenue. Benefits of channel mix, as well as lower distressed sales and favorability in product costs, were the primary drivers of the increase in adjusted gross margin, more than offsetting headwinds from higher input costs.
Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $218 million on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, SG&A was $187 million, or 28.3 percent of revenue, up 40 basis points compared to the same period in the prior year. Adjustments were due to costs associated with the global ERP implementation and information technology infrastructure build-out, VF Outlet door closures, and the business model change in India. Tight expense control and restructuring benefits helped offset increases in demand creation spending in support of fourth quarter and 2021 revenue.
Operating income on a reported basis was $63 million, increasing 7 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $99 million, increasing 16 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. Adjusted operating margin increased 180 basis points to 14.9 percent of revenue, reflecting the benefits of gross margin improvements and tight expense control.
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) on a reported basis was $72 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $106 million, increasing 14 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. Adjusted EBITDA margin increased 190 basis points to 16.1 percent of revenue.
Earnings per share was $0.74 on a reported basis compared to $0.50 in the prior year. Adjusted earnings per share was $1.23, increasing 27 percent compared to the same period in the prior year.
2020 Income Statement Review
Revenue decreased to $2.10 billion, an 18 percent decline year-over-year on a reported and constant currency basis. Revenue declines were primarily the result of temporary wholesale and owned door closures and stay-at-home orders due to COVID-19. The 53rd week contributed approximately 1 point to full-year revenue.
U.S. revenue was $1.64 billion, a 14 percent decline year-over-year on a reported basis primarily driven by COVID-19 impacts. Full year declines were partially offset by new business development wins and growth in Digital, with U.S. own.com increasing 38 percent and U.S. digital wholesale increasing 59 percent year-over-year.
International revenue was $456 million, down 29 percent year-over-year on a reported and constant currency basis. Declines were driven primarily by COVID-19, partially offset by growth in owned digital, which grew 12 percent on a reported basis.
Wrangler brand global revenue decreased to $1.35 billion, an 11 percent decline year-over-year on a reported and constant currency basis due to COVID-19 impacts. U.S. revenue declined 7 percent, with 2020 second half Wrangler U.S. revenues increasing 5 percent compared to the same period in the prior year. Impacts from COVID-19 were partially offset by strength in the Western business and digital.
Lee brand global revenue decreased to $688 million, a 22 percent decline year-over-year on a reported and constant currency basis. Impacts from COVID-19 primarily drove the full-year decline. U.S. revenue declined 18 percent compared to the prior year. 2020 second half Lee U.S. revenues increased 5 percent compared to the same period in the prior year, reflecting new business development wins and strength in digital.
Other global revenue decreased 59 percent year-over-year to $61 million driven by COVID-19 impacts, the strategic actions related to VF Outlet stores, as well as planned reductions in sales of product manufactured for third parties and Rock & Republic.
Gross margin increased 180 basis points year-over-year to 41.2 percent on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, gross margin increased 40 basis points to 41.2 percent. Benefits from restructuring, quality-of-sales initiatives, pricing, product costs as well as favorable channel mix were the primary drivers of the increase in adjusted gross margin. These benefits more than offset the impacts associated with downtime in owned manufacturing and provisions for inventory losses due to COVID-19. In 2020, second half adjusted gross margin increased 230 basis points over the same period in 2019, compared with first half declines of 240 basis points over the same period in 2019 due to the aforementioned factors.
Selling, General & Administrative (SG&A) expenses were $740 million on a reported basis. On an adjusted basis, SG&A was $635 million, down $84 million compared with 2019 driven by benefits of restructuring and cost savings initiatives and tight expense control. Adjusted SG&A, as a percentage of revenue, was up 180 basis points year-over-year to 30.3 percent, driven primarily by fixed cost de-leverage due to revenue declines driven by COVID-19. Adjustments were largely due to costs associated with the global ERP implementation and information technology infrastructure build-out, as well as VF Outlet door closures and the business model change in India.
Operating income on a reported basis was $124 million. On an adjusted basis, operating income was $229 million. Operating margin on a reported basis declined to 5.9 percent of revenue. Adjusted operating margin decreased 140 basis points year-over-year to 10.9 percent of revenue.
Earnings Before Interest, Tax, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA) on a reported basis was $156 million. Adjusted EBITDA was $258 million, down 24 percent compared to the prior year. EBITDA margin on a reported basis declined to 7.4 percent of revenue. Adjusted EBITDA margin decreased 120 basis points to 12.3 percent.
Earnings per share was $1.17 on a reported basis. Adjusted earnings per share was $2.61.
January 2, 2021, Balance Sheet and Liquidity Review
The Company ended 2020 with $248 million in cash and equivalents, and approximately $0.9 billion in long-term debt. At the end of the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company achieved its lowest net debt level and strongest liquidity position since becoming a standalone public company in May 2019.
Due to the Company's strong cash generation, during the fourth quarter of 2020, the Company made additional discretionary repayments on its revolver totaling $125 million. As of December 2020, the Company had no outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility and $493 million available for borrowing against this facility. The Company was in compliance with the terms of its amended credit facility at the end of the fourth quarter. Based on improving fundamentals, the Company is announcing the early termination of the covenant relief period in its amended credit facility.
As previously announced, the Company’s Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.40 per share payable on March 19, 2021, to shareholders of record at the close of business on March 9, 2021.
Inventory at the end of the fourth quarter of 2020 was $341 million, down $117 million or 26 percent compared to the prior-year period.
2021 Fiscal Outlook
While the impacts from the COVID-19 pandemic and macroeconomic factors remain uncertain, the Company is providing its fiscal 2021 guidance, including the following:
•The Company continues to take the necessary, proactive steps to accommodate a prolonged COVID-19 operating environment.
•Revenue is expected to increase in the low-double digit range over 2020 levels, including a mid-single digit impact from the VF Outlet actions and India business model changes.
•Adjusted Gross Margin is expected to increase 150 to 200 basis points above the 41.2 percent achieved in 2020, reflecting continued benefits from ongoing restructuring and quality-of-sales initiatives, as well as higher anticipated growth in more accretive channels such as Digital and International.
•SG&A investments will continue to be made in our brands and capabilities. In addition to incremental volume-related items, SG&A investments are expected to be amplified in demand creation, Digital, and International expansion. These increases will be partially mitigated by ongoing tight expense controls and sustained, structural post-pandemic cost containment initiatives.
•Adjusted EPS is expected to be in the range of $3.50 to $3.60, including the accretive impacts of actions taken with the VF Outlet and India businesses.
•Capital Expenditures are expected to be in the range of $40 million to $50 million, including $25 million to $30 million associated with the implementation of the Company’s new global ERP system.
•An effective tax rate of approximately 22 percent is expected for 2021. Interest expense is expected to be approximately $40 million to $45 million in 2021.
•The Company will host a virtual Investor Day on May 24, 2021.

(a) Refer to constant currency definition on the following pages.
(b) We report an "Other" category in order to reconcile segment revenues and segment profit to the Company's operating results, but the Other category is not considered a reportable segment based on evaluation of aggregation criteria. Other includes sales of third-party branded merchandise at VF Outlet™ stores, sales and licensing of Rock & Republic® branded apparel, and sales of products manufactured for third-parties. In 2020, we made the strategic decision to exit certain VF Outlet™ stores and discontinue selling third-party branded merchandise in all stores. Sales of Wrangler® and Lee® branded products at VF Outlet™ stores are not included in Other and are reported in their respective segments. Prior to 2020, the Other category also included transactions with VF for pre-Separation activities, none of which continued in 2020. These transactions included sales of VF-branded products at VF Outlet™ stores, as well as sales to VF for products manufactured in our plants, use of our transportation fleet and fulfillment of a transition services agreement related to VF’s sale of its Nautica® brand business in mid-2018.
(c) Represents an impairment charge recorded during the third quarter of 2019 related to the Rock & Republic® trademark.

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.

Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures
Management uses the above 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.
(a) During 2020, restructuring and separation costs primarily related to the Company's global ERP system and information technology infrastructure build-out as well as strategic actions taken by the Company, including charges resulting from the Company's decision to exit certain VF OutletTM stores, transition the India business to a licensed model and respond to COVID-19. These costs were partially offset by the benefit of a $6.6 million gain on the sale of manufacturing assets during the third quarter of 2020. During 2019, restructuring and separation costs primarily related to the spin-off from VF Corporation and establishment of Kontoor as a standalone public company, including the implementation of the Company's global ERP system and information technology infrastructure build-out. These restructuring and separation costs resulted in a corresponding tax impact of $6.8 million and $(3.4) million for the three months ended December 2020 and December 2019, respectively, and $22.2 million and $13.8 million for the twelve months ended December 2020 and December 2019, respectively.
(b) Business model changes primarily related to the transition of our former Central and South America region to a licensed model and the discontinuation of manufacturing for VF Corporation. These business model changes resulted in an insignificant corresponding tax impact for the twelve months ended December 2019.
(c) Other adjustments have been made for the three and twelve months ended December 2020 and December 2019 to remove the funding fees related to the accounts receivable sale arrangement, as they are treated as interest expense in the calculation of adjusted EBITDA for debt compliance purposes.
During 2019, other adjustments were made to revise historical corporate allocations, primarily attributable to the carve-out basis of accounting, so that adjusted EBITDA reflects the anticipated cost structure of a separate public company. Other adjustments also included the impact of actions taken to exit certain points of distribution in India during 2019. These other adjustments resulted in a corresponding tax impact of $(2.1) million for the three months ended December 2019 and $(0.3) million for the twelve months ended December 2019.
Additionally, the three and twelve months ended December 2019 included $(1.9) million of tax impact related to adjustments to tax balances transferred from former parent at the Separation.
(d) Non-cash impairment of intangible asset related to a write-down of the Rock & Republic® trademark intangible asset to reflect fair value during the third quarter of 2019. The $32.6 million impairment charge resulted in a tax impact of $(7.4) million for 2019.

Non-GAAP Financial Information: The financial information above has been presented on a GAAP basis and on an adjusted basis. These adjusted presentations are non-GAAP measures. See “Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures" within the previous pages.
Management uses the above 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.

Notes to Supplemental Financial Information - Reconciliation of Adjusted Financial Measures
Management uses the above non-GAAP financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. 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.
(a) Business model changes for the twelve months ended December 2019 primarily related to the transition of our former Central and South America region to a licensed model and the discontinuation of manufacturing for VF Corporation.

Non-GAAP Financial Information: The Company's primary sources of liquidity are cash generated from global operations and cash available under our Revolving Credit Facility. Management reviews net debt and available liquidity at quarter-end, as defined below, in its budgeting and review process. 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.
(1) On May 17, 2019, the Company entered into a $1.55 billion senior secured credit facility (the "Credit Agreement") under which it incurred $1.05 billion of indebtedness. At inception, this facility consisted of a five-year $750.0 million term loan A facility (“Term Loan A”), a seven-year $300.0 million term loan B facility (“Term Loan B”) and a five-year $500.0 million revolving credit facility (the “Revolving Credit Facility”) (collectively, the “Credit Facilities”) with the lenders and agents party thereto. The Company entered into an amendment to the Credit Agreement on May 5, 2020 (the "Amendment") that established a temporary relief period for certain provisions regarding certain financial covenants, including the addition of a minimum liquidity floor as defined in the Amendment, which differs from the liquidity calculation presented in the table above.
(2) As of December 2020, Term Loan A and Term Loan B had remaining outstanding principal balances of $700.0 million and $223.0 million, respectively, and are recorded net of unamortized original issue discount and deferred financing costs.
(3) Net debt at quarter-end is calculated as total long-term debt, including current portion, outstanding under the Credit Facilities less the Company's cash and equivalents balance.
(4) Available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility is calculated as the total borrowing limit under the Revolving Credit Facility less outstanding borrowings and standby letters of credit issued on behalf of the Company under the facility.
(5) Available liquidity at quarter-end is defined as the sum of the Company's available borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility plus the Company's cash and equivalents balance.
