Mimi E. Vaughn, Genesco’s Board Chair, President and Chief Executive Officer, said, “We are very pleased to close out Fiscal 2026 with another quarter of strong performance, highlighted by our sixth consecutive quarter of positive comparable sales growth, demonstrating the sustainability of our momentum, combined with a meaningful increase in profitability. Journeys once again led the way with double-digit comp growth on top of double digits last year, fueled by an exceptional holiday performance. Our strategic initiatives around product elevation and customer experience continue to resonate with teens, driving market share gains and positioning Journeys as the clear destination for style-led footwear. At the same time, Johnston & Murphy’s comparable sales improved in each successive month, while Schuh navigated a promotional U.K. environment and exited the year with clean inventories.”
Vaughn continued, “We are optimistic about Fiscal 2027. We expect another year of comparable sales growth driven by our strategic growth plan and ongoing strength at Journeys, and improved acceleration at Johnston & Murphy as our product and marketing strategies gain more traction. These results will be partially offset by Schuh as we reset the promotional posture and apply the learnings from Journeys’ successful transformation. Our Footwear First strategy, combined with our disciplined approach to cost management and inventory control, positions us well to deliver improved profitability and create meaningful shareholder value.”

___________________________ 1Non-GAAP earnings per share (“EPS”) is a non-GAAP measure. Non-GAAP EPS excludes (i) a gross margin charge for an inventory write-down related to license exits in Genesco Brands Group, net of tax effect, in the fourth quarter and year of Fiscal 2026, (ii) a gross margin charge related to a distribution model transition in Genesco Brands Group, net of tax effect, in Fiscal 2025, and (iii) costs associated with information technology transformation, store restructuring, asset impairments and severance, net of tax effect, in the fourth quarter and year of Fiscal 2026 and asset impairments and severance, net of tax effect, in the fourth quarter and year of Fiscal 2025 (“the Excluded Items”). Non-GAAP EPS also excludes the tax impact of the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) in Fiscal 2026 and income tax expense of $26.2 million related to a U.S. valuation allowance in Fiscal 2025. A reconciliation of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles (“GAAP”) to the adjusted earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share numbers is set forth on Schedule B to this press release. The Company believes that disclosure of earnings (loss) and earnings (loss) per share from continuing operations adjusted for the items not reflected in the previously announced expectations will be meaningful to investors, especially in light of the impact of such items on the results. Non-GAAP EPS is not intended to be a substitute for GAAP measures and may differ from similarly titled metrics supported by other companies. Investors should consider Non-GAAP EPS in addition to, and not as a replacement for, GAAP results reported in our financial statements. |
Fourth Quarter Review
Net sales for the fourth quarter increased 7% to $800 million in Fiscal 2026 compared to $746 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2025. The net sales increase reflects a 9% increase in comparable sales, including a 9% increase in same store sales and an 8% increase in e-commerce comparable sales and a favorable foreign exchange impact, partially offset by decreased wholesale sales and the impact of net store closings.

The overall sales increase of 7% for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2025 was driven by an increase of 10% at Journeys, 9% at Schuh and 2% at Johnston & Murphy, partially offset by a decrease of 27% or $10 million at Genesco Brands. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were up 3% for the fourth quarter.
Fiscal 2026 fourth quarter gross margin was 45.9% compared to 46.9% last year. Adjusted gross margin for the fourth quarter was 46.0%, down 90 basis points compared with 46.9% last year. The decrease in adjusted gross margin as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2025 is due primarily to increased promotional activity at Schuh and lower margins at Genesco Brands related to ongoing tariff pressure and changes in channel mix.
Selling and administrative expenses for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 decreased 140 basis points as a percentage of sales to 39.1% compared with 40.5% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2025 primarily reflects decreased occupancy costs and selling salaries, along with other expenses as part of our cost savings initiatives.
Genesco’s GAAP operating income for the fourth quarter was $51.3 million, or 6.4% of sales in Fiscal 2026, compared with $46.1 million, or 6.2% of sales in the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in the fourth quarters of both Fiscal 2026 and 2025, operating income for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $55.9 million compared to $47.9 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was 7.0% of sales in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 and 6.4% in the fourth quarter last year.
The effective tax rate for the quarter was 6.4% in Fiscal 2026 compared to 25.8% in the fourth quarter last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting Excluded Items, was 27.4% in Fiscal 2026 compared to 23.8% in the fourth quarter last year. The higher adjusted tax rate for the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to the fourth quarter last year primarily reflects a higher expected tax rate for Fiscal 2026 versus Fiscal 2025 due to the impact of the valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions and additional global minimum tax under the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Pillar Two framework. The divergence between the effective tax rate and the adjusted tax rate is due to income tax law changes under the OBBBA in Fiscal 2026, which we have excluded from the adjusted tax rate in Fiscal 2026.
GAAP earnings from continuing operations were $47.5 million in the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 compared to $33.6 million in the fourth quarter last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items, fourth quarter earnings from continuing operations were $40.2 million, or $3.74 per share, in Fiscal 2026, compared to $35.8 million, or $3.26 per share, in the fourth quarter last year.
Full Year Review
Net sales for Fiscal 2026 increased 5% to $2.4 billion compared to $2.3 billion in Fiscal 2025. The net sales increase for Fiscal 2026 reflected a 6% increase in comparable sales, including a 6% increase in same store sales and a 4% increase in e-commerce comparable sales, and a favorable foreign exchange impact, partially offset by 42 net store closings and decreased wholesale sales.
Overall sales for Fiscal 2026 compared to Fiscal 2025 increased 7% at Journeys and 4% at Schuh, partially offset by a decrease of 4% at Genesco Brands, while sales at Johnston & Murphy were flat. On a constant currency basis, Schuh sales were flat for Fiscal 2026.
Gross margin for Fiscal 2026 was 46.3% compared with 47.2% last year. Adjusted gross margin for Fiscal 2026 decreased 90 basis points as a percentage of sales compared to last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2025 is due primarily to increased promotional activity at Schuh and lower margins at Genesco Brands related to the exit of licenses and ongoing tariff pressure. Gross margins were flat for both Journeys and Johnston & Murphy for Fiscal 2026.
Selling and administrative expenses for Fiscal 2026 decreased 120 basis points as a percentage of sales to 45.2% compared to 46.4% last year. The decrease as a percentage of sales compared to Fiscal 2025 reflects decreased occupancy costs and selling salaries along with other expenses as part of our cost savings initiatives.
Genesco’s GAAP operating income for Fiscal 2026 was $17.3 million, or 0.7% of sales, compared to $13.9 million, or 0.6% of sales last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in Fiscal 2026 and 2025, operating income was $26.6 million in Fiscal 2026 compared to $18.9 million last year. Adjusted operating margin was 1.1% of sales in Fiscal 2026 and 0.8% of sales last year.
The effective tax rate was -5.4% in Fiscal 2026 compared to 309.6% last year. The adjusted tax rate, reflecting the Excluded Items, was 29.9% in Fiscal 2026 compared to 27.7% last year. The higher adjusted tax rate for Fiscal 2026 compared to Fiscal 2025 reflects a higher expected tax rate for Fiscal 2026 versus Fiscal 2025 due to the impact of the valuation allowance in certain jurisdictions and additional global minimum tax under the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development’s Pillar Two framework. The divergence between the effective tax rate and the adjusted tax rate is due to income tax law changes under the OBBBA in Fiscal 2026 and recording a $26.3 million U.S. valuation allowance in Fiscal 2025, both of which we have excluded from the adjusted tax rate in Fiscal 2026 and 2025.
GAAP earnings from continuing operations were $13.3 million in Fiscal 2026 compared to a loss from continuing operations of $19.5 million last year. Adjusted for the Excluded Items in Fiscal 2026 and 2025, tax law changes under OBBBA in Fiscal 2026 and the U.S. valuation allowance in Fiscal 2025, earnings from continuing operations were $15.4 million, or $1.45 per share, in Fiscal 2026, compared to $10.3 million, or $0.94 per share, last year.
Cash, Borrowings and Inventory
Cash as of January 31, 2026 was $105.4 million, compared with $34.0 million as of February 1, 2025. Total debt at the end of the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026 was $3.4 million compared with zero at the end of last year’s fourth quarter. Inventories increased 2% on a year-over-year basis reflecting increased inventory for Journeys and Johnston & Murphy, partially offset by decreased inventory at Genesco Brands, while inventory at Schuh was down on a constant currency basis.
Capital Expenditures and Store Activity
For the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026, capital expenditures were $10 million, related primarily to retail stores and other initiatives. Depreciation and amortization was $13 million. During the quarter, the Company opened six stores and closed 15 stores. The Company ended the quarter with 1,236 stores compared with 1,278 stores at the end of the fourth quarter last year, or a decrease of 3%. Square footage was down 2% on a year-over-year basis.
Share Repurchases
The Company did not repurchase any shares during the fourth quarter of Fiscal 2026. The Company repurchased 604,531 shares for $12.6 million, or $20.79 per share, during Fiscal 2026. The Company currently has $29.8 million remaining on its expanded share repurchase authorization announced in June 2023.
Fiscal 2027 Outlook
Vaughn concluded, “We have clear plans in place to drive continued improvement in Fiscal 2027. Our top-line guidance reflects another year of overall positive comparable sales growth, offset by store closures and license transitions in our branded footwear group. The projected increase in our bottom line is being driven by another year of increased profitability at Journeys, improvement at Johnston & Murphy and higher gross margins, primarily at Schuh, as we reduce the business’ dependency on promotions and focus on returning to a full price, full margin sales model.”
For Fiscal 2027, the Company:
- Expects positive comparable sales of 1% to 2%
- Expects total sales to be down 1% to flat compared to Fiscal 2026 including a reduction in sales of approximately $30 million net due to the exit of licenses and approximately $30 million related to net store closures
- Expects adjusted diluted earnings per share from continuing operations in the range of $1.90 to $2.30 2
- Guidance assumes no further share repurchases and a tax rate of 30% for Fiscal 2027 but due to the valuation allowance, the tax rate for the first three quarters of the year will be in the range of approximately 7% to 8%

Safe Harbor Statement
This release contains forward-looking statements, including those regarding future sales, earnings, operating income, gross margins, expenses, capital expenditures, depreciation and amortization, tax rates, store openings and closures, cost reductions, and all other statements not addressing solely historical facts or present conditions. Forward-looking statements are usually identified by or are associated with such words as “intend,” “expect,” “feel,” “should,” “believe,” “anticipate,” “optimistic,” “confident” and similar terminology. Actual results could vary materially from the expectations reflected in these statements. A number of factors could cause differences. These include adjustments to projections reflected in forward-looking statements, including those resulting from weakness in store, e-commerce and shopping mall traffic, the imposition of tariffs (including the timing and amount thereof) on products imported by the Company or its vendors as well as the ability and costs to move production of products in response to tariffs; our ability to pass on price increases to our customers; restrictions on operations imposed by government entities and/or landlords, changes in public safety and health requirements, and limitations on the Company’s ability to adequately staff and operate stores. Differences from expectations could also result from store closures and effects on the business as a result of the level of consumer spending on our merchandise and interest in our brands and in general; the level and timing of promotional activity necessary to maintain inventories at appropriate levels; the Company’s ability to obtain from suppliers products that are in-demand on a timely basis and effectively manage disruptions in product supply or distribution, including disruptions as a result of pandemics or geopolitical events, including shipping disruptions near crucial trade routes; unfavorable trends in fuel costs, foreign exchange rates, foreign labor and material costs, and other factors affecting the cost of products; a disruption in shipping or increase in cost of our imported products, and other factors affecting the cost of products; our dependence on third-party vendors and licensors for the products we sell; store closures and effects on the business as a result of civil disturbances; our ability to renew our license agreements; impacts of the Russia-Ukraine war, the conflict in Israel and the surrounding areas; and other sources of market weakness in the locations in which we operate; the effectiveness of the Company’s omnichannel initiatives; costs associated with changes in minimum wage and overtime requirements; wage pressures; labor shortages; the effects of inflation; the evolving regulatory landscape related to our use of social media; weakness in the consumer economy and retail industry; competition and fashion trends in the Company’s markets, including trends with respect to the popularity of casual and dress footwear; any failure to increase sales at our existing stores, given our high fixed expense cost structure, and in our e -commerce businesses; risks related to the potential for terrorist events; risks related to public health and safety events; changes in buying patterns by significant wholesale customers; changes in consumer preferences; our ability to continue to complete and integrate acquisitions; our ability to expand our business and diversify our product base; impairment of goodwill in connection with acquisitions; payment related risks that could increase our operating cost, expose us to fraud or theft, subject us to potential liability and disrupt our business; retained liabilities associated with divestitures of businesses including potential liabilities under leases as the prior tenant or as a guarantor of certain leases; and changes in the timing of holidays or in the onset of seasonal weather affecting period-to-period sales comparisons. Additional factors that could cause differences from expectations include the ability to secure allocations to refine product assortments to address consumer demand; the ability to renew leases in existing stores and control or lower occupancy costs, to open or close stores in the number and on the planned schedule, and to conduct required remodeling or refurbishment on schedule and at expected expense levels; the Company’s ability to realize anticipated cost savings, including rent savings and savings in connection with the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; the amount and timing of share repurchases; our ability to make our occupancy costs more variable; the Company’s ability to achieve expected digital gains and gain market share; deterioration in the performance of individual businesses or of the Company’s market value relative to its book value, resulting in impairments of fixed assets, operating lease right of use assets or intangible assets or other adverse financial consequences and the timing and amount of such impairments or other consequences; unexpected changes to the market for the Company’s shares or for the retail sector in general; costs and reputational harm as a result of disruptions in the Company’s business or information technology systems, including as a result of security breaches and incidents or by potential problems associated with the implementation of new or upgraded systems or as the result of the restructuring of the Company’s information technology functions; changes in tax laws and tax rates and the Company’s ability to realize any anticipated tax benefits in both the amount and timeframe anticipated; and the cost and outcome of litigation, investigations, environmental matters and other disputes involving the Company. Additional factors are cited in the “Risk Factors,” “Legal Proceedings” and “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” sections of, and elsewhere in, the Company’s SEC filings, copies of which may be obtained from the SEC website, www.sec.gov, or by contacting the investor relations department of Genesco via the Company’s website, www.genesco.com. Many of the factors that will determine the outcome of the subject matter of this release are beyond Genesco’s ability to control or predict. Genesco undertakes no obligation to release publicly the results of any revisions to these forward-looking statements that may be made to reflect events or circumstances after the date hereof or to reflect the occurrence of unanticipated events. Forward-looking statements reflect the expectations of the Company at the time they are made. The Company disclaims any obligation to update such statements.
