Paul Marciano
, Chairman of the Board and Chief Creative Officer, commented, "I
am pleased to report that second quarter results were better than our
expectations. In our Americas Retail business, comp sales ended flat
for the quarter in constant currency, mainly driven by continued
improvement in the performance of the womens' category. Our e-commerce
business continued to experience solid top-line growth of 20%. So far
in the third quarter, comp sales in the
Americas
are roughly flat in constant currency. But I am even more pleased by
the hiring of
Victor Herrero
as our new Chief Executive Officer. Victor brings with him amazing
experience and a deep understanding of retail. I am confident that he
has all the required qualities to help write the next chapter for
Guess."
Victor Herrero
, Chief Executive Officer, stated, "I am very honored to be part
of the Guess family and am convinced that the Guess brand has
tremendous opportunities. Already I have identified five initiatives
that I'm sure will create economic value. In the first phase, we will
focus on elevating the quality of our sales organization by leveraging
our field and store structure. We will also unlock the potential of
the Guess Brand in
Asia
by working to build a major business in this region. Finally we will
create a culture of purpose and accountability throughout the entire
company by implementing a central organizational structure focused on
sales and profitability. In the second phase, we will revitalize our
wholesale business and improve our overall cost structure. My goal is
to drive long-term value for our shareholders and I am confident that
these initiatives are the right steps towards achieving that
goal."
Total net revenue for the second
quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 10.2% to
$546.3 million
, from
$608.6 million
in the prior-year quarter. In constant currency, total net revenue
decreased 0.6%. Refer to the accompanying tables for a summary of the
impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the Company's
net revenue. Beginning this quarter, the Company has changed the names
of its "North American Retail" and "North American
Wholesale" segments to "Americas Retail" and
"Americas Wholesale" to better reflect that these segments
are inclusive of its operations in
North America
as well as Central and
South America
. There have been no changes to the underlying reporting in either
segment.
- The Company's retail stores
and e-commerce sites in the
Americas
generated revenue of
$232.5 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, a 4.7% decrease from
$244.0 million
in the same period a year ago. Comparable store sales including
the results of our e-commerce sites in the U.S. and
Canada
for the second quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 2.8% in U.S.
dollars and was relatively flat in constant currency compared to
the same period a year ago.
- Net revenue from the Company's
Europe
segment decreased 15.3% to
$199.4 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, from
$235.3 million

increased 3.7%.

Asia
segment decreased 11.7% to
$56.7 million
in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, from
$64.3 million
in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue
decreased 6.0%.
- Net revenue from the Company's
Americas Wholesale segment decreased 15.4% to
$32.4 million

in the prior-year period.
Operating earnings for the second
quarter of fiscal 2016 decreased 12.2% to
$26.2 million
(including a
$4.4 million
unfavorable currency translation impact), from
$29.9 million
in the prior-year period. Operating margin in the second quarter was
down 10 basis points at 4.8%, compared to 4.9% in the prior-year
quarter. Operating margin was negatively impacted by currency exchange
rate fluctuations and charges related to legal matters. These
decreases were mostly offset by overall product margin improvements
relating to higher initial mark-ups in
Europe
and Americas Retail and less markdowns in Americas Retail.
- Operating margin for the
Company's Americas Retail segment increased 420 basis points to
2.3% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to negative
1.9% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin
was driven by higher gross margins due primarily to less markdowns
and higher initial mark-ups, partially offset by the unfavorable
impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs,
and a lower SG&A rate driven by lower store impairment
charges.
- Operating margin for the
Company's
Europe
segment decreased 130 basis points to 9.1% in the second quarter
of fiscal 2016, compared to 10.4% in the prior-year period. The
decrease in operating margin was driven primarily by lower gross
margins due to the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate
fluctuations on product costs, partially offset by higher initial
mark-ups.
- Operating margin for the
Company's
Asia
segment decreased 190 basis points to 1.6% in the second quarter
of fiscal 2016, compared to 3.5% in the prior-year period. The
decrease in operating margin was driven by lower gross margins in
South Korea
and a higher SG&A rate due primarily to overall deleveraging.
- Operating margin for the
Company's Americas Wholesale segment increased 160 basis points to
15.1% in the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 13.5% in
the prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was due to
higher product margins, partially offset by an overall
deleveraging of SG&A expenses.

Company's Licensing segment decreased 450 basis points to 88.5% in
the second quarter of fiscal 2016, compared to 93.0% in the
prior-year period.

includes net unrealized and realized mark-to-market gains on foreign

for the six months ended
August 2, 2014

$0.25
, compared to
$0.23
for the prior-year period. The negative impact of currency on earnings
per share for the six months ended

was approximately
11 cents
.

months of fiscal 2016 decreased 9.4% to
$1.03 billion
, from
$1.13 billion
in the prior-year period. In constant currency, total net revenue
decreased 0.3%. Refer to the accompanying tables for a summary of the
impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations on the Company's
net revenue.
- The Company's retail stores
and e-commerce sites in the
Americas
generated revenue of
$446.7 million
in the first six months of fiscal 2016, a 5.4% decrease from
$472.3 million
in the same period a year ago. Comparable store sales including
the results of our e-commerce sites in the U.S. and
Canada
for the six months ended
August 1, 2015
decreased 4.3% in U.S. dollars and 1.8% in constant currency
compared to the same period a year ago.
- Net revenue from the Company's
Europe
segment decreased 14.6% to
$336.8 million

$134.4 million
in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue
decreased 6.0%.
- Net revenue from the Company's
Americas Wholesale segment decreased 10.2% to

in the prior-year period. In constant currency, net revenue

- Licensing segment net revenue
decreased 2.3% to

Operating earnings for the first six
months of fiscal 2016 increased 9.6% to
$30.6 million
(including a
$3.2 million
unfavorable currency translation impact), from
$27.9 million
in the prior-year period. Operating margin in the first six months of
fiscal 2016 increased 50 basis points to 3.0%, compared to 2.5% in the
prior-year period. The increase in operating margin was driven by
overall product margin improvements relating to higher initial
mark-ups in
Europe
and Americas Retail and less markdowns in Americas Retail. These
increases were partially offset by the unfavorable impact from
currency exchange rate fluctuations, the negative impact on the
Company's fixed cost structure from negative same store sales in
Americas Retail and charges related to legal matters.
- Operating margin for the
Company's Americas Retail segment increased 240 basis points to
negative 0.4% in the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to
negative 2.8% in the prior-year period. The increase in operating
margin was driven primarily by higher gross margins due primarily
to less markdowns and higher initial mark-ups, partially offset by
the negative impact on the fixed cost structure resulting from
negative comparable store sales and the unfavorable impact from
currency exchange rate fluctuations on product costs.
- Operating margin for the
Company's
Europe
segment decreased 20 basis points to 4.3% in the first six months
of fiscal 2016, compared to 4.5% in the prior-year period. The
decrease in operating margin was driven by lower gross margins due
to the unfavorable impact from currency exchange rate fluctuations
on product costs, partially offset by higher initial mark-ups.
- Operating margin for the
Company's
Asia
segment increased 40 basis points to 4.6% in the first six months
of fiscal 2016, compared to 4.2% in the prior-year period. The
increase in operating margin was driven by a lower SG&A rate
due primarily to an overall leveraging of expenses as we phase out
of our G by GUESS concept in
South Korea
, partially offset by lower gross margins in
South Korea
.
- Operating margin for the
Company's Americas Wholesale segment was flat at 16.7% in the
first six months of fiscal 2016 compared to the prior-year period.
- Operating margin for the
Company's Licensing segment decreased 210 basis points to 88.8% in
the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to 90.9% in the
prior-year period.
Other net income, which primarily
includes net unrealized and realized mark-to-market gains on foreign
currency contracts and net unrealized and realized gains on
non-operating assets, was
$6.3 million
for the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared to
$3.6 million
in the prior-year period.
The Company's effective tax rate
increased to 38.0% for the first six months of fiscal 2016, compared
to 35.1% in the prior-year period.

Presentation of Non-GAAP
Information
The financial information presented in
this release includes non-GAAP financial measures such as constant
currency financial information and free cash flow measures. The non-GAAP
measures are provided in addition to, and not as alternatives for, the
Company's reported GAAP results.
This release includes certain constant
currency financial information. Foreign currency exchange rate
fluctuations affect the amount reported from translating the Company's
foreign revenue, expenses and balance sheet amounts into U.S. dollars.
These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported
operating results under GAAP. The Company provides constant currency
information to enhance the visibility of underlying business trends,
excluding the effects of changes in foreign currency translation
rates. To calculate net revenue, comparable store sales and earnings
(loss) from operations on a constant currency basis, operating or
forecasted results for the current-year period are translated into
U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the
comparable period of the prior year. The constant currency
calculations do not adjust for the impact of revaluing specific
transactions denominated in a currency that is different to the
functional currency of that entity when exchange rates fluctuate.
However, in calculating the estimated impact of currency on our
earnings per share guidance for the third quarter and full year of
fiscal 2016, the Company estimates gross margin (including the impact
of merchandise-related hedges) and expenses using the appropriate
prior-year rates, translates the estimated foreign earnings at the
comparable prior-year rates, and excludes the year-over-year earnings
impact of gains or losses arising from balance sheet remeasurement and
foreign currency contracts not designated as merchandise hedges. The
constant currency information presented may not be comparable to
similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
The Company also includes information
regarding its free cash flows in this release. The Company calculates
free cash flows as cash flows from operating activities less purchases
of property and equipment. Free cash flows is not intended to be an
alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of
liquidity, but rather provides additional visibility to investors
regarding how much cash is generated for discretionary and
non-discretionary items after deducting purchases of property and
equipment. Free cash flow information presented may not be comparable
to similarly titled measures reported by other companies. A
reconciliation of reported GAAP cash flows from operating activities
to the comparable non-GAAP free cash flow measure is provided in the
accompanying tables.

call at

release. A live webcast of the conference call will be accessible at www.guess.com via
