Rhea-AI Filing Summary

Abercrombie & Fitch Co. reported higher sales but lower profits for the thirteen and thirty‑nine weeks ended November 1, 2025 compared with a year ago. Net sales rose to $1.29 billion for the quarter and $3.60 billion year‑to‑date, driven largely by growth in the Hollister brand and the Americas segment, while Abercrombie brand sales declined.

Quarterly net income attributable to A&F fell to $113.0 million from $132.0 million, and year‑to‑date net income declined to $334.8 million from $379.0 million, with diluted EPS at $2.36 for the quarter and $6.83 year‑to‑date. Gross costs increased across cost of sales, selling, and lease‑related expenses, and the company recorded asset impairment charges and higher tax expense, partly offset by a $39 million net benefit from a payment card interchange fee litigation settlement.

The balance sheet shows $605.8 million in cash and equivalents, no borrowings under the $500 million ABL facility, and inventories up to $730.5 million. A&F generated $313.0 million in operating cash flow in the first thirty‑nine weeks and used significant cash for capital expenditures and share repurchases, with treasury stock rising to $2.49 billion at cost.

Insights

Sales grew mid‑single digits, but earnings and cash declined as costs and buybacks increased.

Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (ANF) delivered net sales of $1.29B for the quarter and $3.60B year‑to‑date, up from $1.21B and $3.36B a year earlier. Growth was concentrated in the Americas and the Hollister brand, whose year‑to‑date revenue increased to $1.88B, while Abercrombie brand revenue declined to $1.72B. Segment data show Americas contributing the vast majority of operating income, with $835.4M year‑to‑date segment income versus smaller contributions from EMEA and losses in APAC.

Despite sales growth, profitability softened. Year‑to‑date operating income edged down to $463.2M from $484.8M and net income attributable to A&F decreased to $334.8M from $379.0M. Cost of sales, selling expense, and lease‑related costs all rose, and income tax expense increased to $138.2M. Results also include a one‑time $39M net benefit from a payment card interchange fee settlement recorded mainly in selling expense, which supports but does not fully offset underlying margin pressure and tax impacts.

The company remains balance‑sheet‑conservative with $605.8M in cash and equivalents, $25.3M in marketable securities, and no borrowings under its $500M ABL facility, leaving $449.5M of borrowing capacity as of November 1, 2025. However, cash and equivalents plus restricted cash declined from $780.4M at the start of the year to $612.6M, as A&F invested $185.2M in property and equipment and spent about $353.0M on share repurchases over thirty‑nine weeks. Future quarters may reflect the disclosed expectation of roughly $90M in net tariff expense in Fiscal 2025, which management indicates would reduce operating profit by about 170% of net sales basis points, alongside ongoing macro and FX risks outlined in the trend discussion.

Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

1. NATURE OF BUSINESS

Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (“A&F”), a company incorporated in Delaware in 1996, through its subsidiaries (collectively, A&F and its subsidiaries are referred to as the “Company”), is a global, digitally-led omnichannel retailer. The Company offers a broad assortment of apparel, personal care products and accessories for men, women and kids, which are sold primarily through its Company-owned stores and digital channels, as well as through various third-party arrangements.

The Company manages its business on a geographic basis, consisting of three reportable segments: Americas; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia-Pacific (“APAC”). Corporate functions and other income and expenses are evaluated on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to the Company’s segments, and therefore are included as a reconciling item between segment and total operating income.

The Company’s brand families include Abercrombie brands and Hollister brands. These brands share a commitment to offering unique products of enduring quality and exceptional comfort that allow customers around the world to express their own individuality and style.


2. SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Principles of consolidation

The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include historical financial statements of, and transactions applicable to, the Company and reflect its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.

The Company has interests in Emirati and Kuwaiti business ventures with Majid al Futtaim Lifestyle L.L.C. (“MAF”), each of which meets the definition of a variable interest entity (“VIE”). The purpose of the business ventures with MAF is to operate stores in the United Arab Emirates and Kuwait. The Company is deemed to be the primary beneficiary of these VIEs; therefore, the Company has consolidated the operating results, assets and liabilities of these VIEs, with the noncontrolling interests’ (“NCI”) portions of net income presented as net income attributable to NCI on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income and the NCI portion of stockholders’ equity presented as NCI on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Fiscal year

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. This typically results in a fifty-two week year, but occasionally gives rise to an additional week, resulting in a fifty-three week year. Fiscal years are designated in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and notes, as well as the remainder of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, by the calendar year in which the fiscal year commences. All references herein to the Company’s fiscal years are as follows:
Fiscal yearYear ended/endingNumber of weeks
Fiscal 2024February 1, 202552
Fiscal 2025January 31, 202652
Fiscal 2026January 30, 202752

Interim financial statements

The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements as of November 1, 2025, and for the thirteen and thirty-nine week periods ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024, are unaudited and are presented pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) for interim consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and notes thereto contained in A&F’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for Fiscal 2024 filed with the SEC on March 31, 2025 (the “Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K”). The February 1, 2025 consolidated balance sheet data, included herein, were derived from audited consolidated financial statements, but do not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”).

In the opinion of management, the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all adjustments (which are of a normal recurring nature) necessary to state fairly, in all material respects, the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the interim periods, but are not necessarily indicative of the results of operations to be anticipated for Fiscal 2025.

2025 3Q Form 10-Q

Table of Contents
Use of estimates

The preparation of financial statements, in conformity with GAAP, requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of net sales and expenses during the reporting period. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved with estimates, actual results may differ. Additionally, these estimates and assumptions may change as a result of the impact of global economic conditions such as the uncertainty regarding a slowing economy, volatility in interest rates, continued inflation, fluctuation in foreign exchange rates, the imposition of, and changes to, tariffs by the U.S. government and certain trading partners, and geopolitical concerns, all of which could result in material impacts to the Company’s consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.

Recent accounting pronouncements

The Company reviews recent accounting pronouncements on a quarterly basis and has excluded discussion of those not applicable to the Company and those that did not have, or are not expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements. The following table provides a brief description of certain accounting pronouncements the Company has not yet adopted and that could affect the Company’s financial statements.

Accounting Standards Update (ASU)DescriptionEffect on the financial statements or other significant matters
ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures

The update requires disaggregated information about a reporting entity’s effective tax rate reconciliation as well as information on income taxes paid. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The guidance will be applied on a prospective basis with the option to apply the standard retrospectively.
Other than the new disclosure requirements, the adoption of this guidance will not have an impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2024-03 - Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Disaggregation of Income Statement Expenses

ASU 2025-01 - Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures (Subtopic 220-40): Clarifying the Effective Date
The updates require a disaggregated disclosure of income statement expenses. The amendments in this update require disclosure, in the notes to financial statements, of specified information about certain costs and expenses. The updates are effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026 and interim periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027. Early adoption is permitted.
Other than the new disclosure requirements, the adoption of this guidance will not have a impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
ASU 2025-06 - Intangibles—Goodwill and Other—Internal-Use Software (Subtopic 350-40): Targeted Improvements to the Accounting for Internal-Use Software
The update removes all references to project stages and clarifies that costs may begin to be capitalized once management has authorized the project and it is probable that the project will be completed and the software will be used to perform the function intended. The update specifies disclosure of capitalized internal-use software balance and accumulated amortization at the balance sheet date, the amortization for the period and a general description of the method used in computing amortization. The update is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2027 and interim periods within those years. Early adoption is permitted.
The Company is currently evaluating the impact that this guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes

Supply Chain Finance Program

Under the supply chain finance (“SCF”) program, which is administered by a third party, the Company’s vendors, at their sole discretion, are given the opportunity to sell receivables from the Company to a participating financial institution at a discount that leverages the Company’s credit profile. The commercial terms negotiated by the Company with its vendors are consistent, irrespective of whether a vendor participates in the SCF program. A participating vendor has the option to be paid by the financial institution earlier than the original invoice due date. The Company’s responsibility is limited to making payment on the terms originally negotiated by the Company with each vendor, regardless of whether the vendor sells its receivable to a financial institution. If a vendor chooses to participate in the SCF program, the Company pays the financial institution the stated amount of confirmed merchandise invoices on the stated maturity date, which is typically 60 days from the invoice date. The agreement with the financial institution does not require the Company to provide assets pledged as security or other forms of guarantees for the SCF program.

As of November 1, 2025 and February 1, 2025, $61.7 million and $88.4 million of SCF program liabilities were recorded in accounts payable in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, respectively. Amounts are reflected as cash used for operating activities in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows when settled.


3. INTERCHANGE FEE SETTLEMENT

Litigation settlement

During the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, the Company entered into a settlement related to the resolution of a payment card interchange fee litigation in which it was a plaintiff. The settlement resulted in a $39 million net benefit recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025. The net benefit is comprised of a $43 million settlement benefit recorded within selling expense and a $4 million settlement-related expense recorded within general and administrative expense.

4. REVENUE RECOGNITION

6. FAIR VALUE

Fair value is the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The inputs used to measure fair value are prioritized based on a three-level hierarchy. The three levels of inputs to measure fair value are as follows:
Level 1—inputs are unadjusted quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities that are available in active markets that the Company can access at the measurement date.
Level 2—inputs are other than quoted market prices included within Level 1 that are observable for assets or liabilities, directly or indirectly.
Level 3—inputs to the valuation methodology are unobservable.

The lowest level of significant input determines the placement of the entire fair value measurement in the hierarchy. The following table provides the three levels of the hierarchy and the distribution of the Company’s assets measured at fair value on a recurring basis, as of November 1, 2025 and February 1, 2025:

Table of Contents
The Company’s Level 2 assets and liabilities consisted of:
Trust-owned life insurance policies, which were valued using the cash surrender value of the life insurance policies;
Time deposits with original maturities of three months or less, which were recorded at cost, approximating fair value, due to the short-term nature of these investments; and
Derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency exchange forward contracts, which were valued using quoted market prices of the same or similar instruments, adjusted for counterparty risk.

The Company also holds certain investments that are not measured at fair value on a recurring basis on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, including held-to-maturity securities. Held-to-maturity securities consist primarily of time deposits with maturities less than one year, which are valued at amortized cost, approximating fair value.

10. INCOME TAXES

The quarterly provision for income taxes is based on the current estimate of the annual effective income tax rate and the tax effect of discrete items occurring during the quarter. The Company’s quarterly provision and the estimate of the annual effective tax rate are subject to significant variation due to several factors. These factors include variability in the pre-tax jurisdictional mix of earnings, changes in how the Company does business including entering into new businesses or geographies, changes in foreign currency exchange rates, changes in laws, regulations, interpretations and administrative practices, relative changes in expenses or losses for which tax benefits are not recognized and the impact of discrete items. In addition, jurisdictions where the Company anticipates an ordinary loss for the fiscal year for which the Company does not anticipate future tax benefits are excluded from the overall computation of estimated annual effective tax rate and no tax benefits are recognized in the period related to losses in such jurisdictions. The impact of these items on the effective tax rate will be greater at lower levels of pre-tax earnings.

One Big Beautiful Bill Act

On July 4, 2025, House Resolution 1, also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), was signed into law. The OBBBA includes, among other provisions, changes to U.S. corporate income tax law impacting the taxation of domestic and international business operations, including permanently extending certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, restoration of accelerated depreciation on capital expenditures, deductible research and experimental expenditures, and modifications to the international tax framework. The enactment of the OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Impact of valuation allowances

During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025, the Company did not recognize income tax benefits on $21.0 million and $52.8 million, respectively, of pretax losses, primarily in Switzerland, resulting in adverse tax impacts of $3.2 million and $8.1 million, respectively. During the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025, the Company recorded income tax expense of $5.6 million for the establishment of an additional valuation allowance against the remaining net deferred tax assets in Japan.

As of November 1, 2025, the Company had foreign net deferred tax assets of approximately $40.3 million, including $15.5 million and $11.4 million in the United Kingdom and China, respectively. While the Company believes that these net deferred tax assets are more-likely-than-not to be realized, it is not a certainty, as the Company continues to evaluate and respond to situations as they emerge. Should circumstances change, the net deferred tax assets may become subject to additional valuation allowances in the future. Additional valuation allowances would result in additional tax expense.

During the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 2, 2024, the Company did not recognize income tax benefits on $7.7 million and $22.3 million, respectively, of pretax losses, primarily in Switzerland, resulting in adverse tax impacts of $1.2 million and $3.4 million, respectively.

As of February 1, 2025, there were approximately $8.2 million, $5.4 million, and $13.4 million of net deferred tax assets in China, Japan, and the United Kingdom, respectively.

11. BORROWINGS

ABL Facility

The Amended and Restated Credit Agreement, as amended, of Abercrombie & Fitch Management Co. (“A&F Management”), a wholly-owned indirect subsidiary of A&F, provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $500 million (the “ABL Facility”), which matures on August 2, 2029. The terms of the Company’s ABL Facility have remained unchanged from those disclosed in Note 12, “BORROWINGS,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” of the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K.

The Company did not have any borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility as of November 1, 2025 or as of February 1, 2025.

As of November 1, 2025, availability under the ABL Facility was $499.5 million, net of $0.5 million in outstanding stand-by letters of credit. As the Company must maintain excess availability equal to the greater of 10% of the loan cap or $36 million under the ABL Facility, borrowing capacity available to the Company under the ABL Facility was $449.5 million as of November 1, 2025.

Representations, warranties and covenants

The agreements related to the ABL Facility contain various representations, warranties and restrictive covenants that, among other things and subject to specified exceptions, restrict the ability of A&F and its subsidiaries to: grant or incur liens; incur, assume or guarantee additional indebtedness; sell or otherwise dispose of assets, including capital stock of subsidiaries; make investments in certain subsidiaries; pay dividends, make distributions or redeem or repurchase capital stock; change the nature of their business; and consolidate or merge with or into, or sell substantially all of the assets of the Company or A&F Management to another entity.

Certain of the agreements related to the ABL Facility also contain certain affirmative covenants, including reporting requirements such as delivery of financial statements, certificates and notices of certain events, maintaining insurance and providing additional guarantees and collateral in certain circumstances.

The Company was in compliance with all debt covenants under these agreements as of November 1, 2025.

13. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS

The Company is exposed to risks associated with changes in foreign currency exchange rates and uses derivative instruments, primarily forward contracts, to manage the financial impacts of these exposures. The Company does not use forward contracts to engage in currency speculation and does not enter into derivative financial instruments for trading purposes.

The Company uses derivative instruments, primarily foreign currency exchange forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges, to hedge the foreign currency exchange rate exposure associated with forecasted foreign-currency-denominated intercompany inventory sales to foreign subsidiaries and the related settlement of the foreign-currency-denominated intercompany receivables. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates will either increase or decrease the Company’s intercompany equivalent cash flows and affect the Company’s U.S. dollar earnings. Gains or losses on the foreign currency exchange forward contracts that are used to hedge these exposures are expected to partially offset this variability. Foreign currency exchange forward contracts represent agreements to exchange the currency of one country for the currency of another country at an agreed upon settlement date. These foreign currency exchange forward contracts typically have a maximum term of twelve months. The sale of the inventory to the Company’s customers will result in the reclassification of related derivative gains and losses that are reported in AOCL into earnings.

The Company also uses foreign currency exchange forward contracts to hedge certain foreign-currency-denominated net monetary assets/liabilities. Examples of monetary assets/liabilities include cash balances, receivables and payables. Fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates result in transaction gains or losses being recorded in earnings, as GAAP requires that monetary assets/liabilities be remeasured at the spot exchange rate at quarter-end and upon settlement. The Company has chosen not to apply hedge accounting to these instruments because there are no anticipated differences in the timing of gain or loss recognition on the hedging instruments and the hedged items.

As of November 1, 2025, the Company had outstanding the following foreign currency exchange forward contracts that were entered into to hedge either a portion, or all, of forecasted foreign-currency-denominated intercompany transactions:

15. SEGMENT REPORTING

The Company’s reportable segments are based on the financial information the chief operating decision maker (“CODM”) uses to allocate resources and assess performance of its business.

The Company manages its business on a geographic basis, consisting of three reportable segments: Americas; EMEA; and APAC. Corporate functions and other income and expenses are evaluated on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to the Company’s segments, and therefore are included as a reconciling item between segment and total operating income. The Americas reportable segment includes the results of operations in North America and South America. The EMEA reportable segment includes the results of operations in Europe, the Middle East and Africa. The APAC reportable segment includes the results of operations in the Asia-Pacific region, including Asia and Oceania. Intersegment sales and transfers are recorded at cost and are treated as a transfer of inventory. All intercompany revenues are eliminated in consolidation and are not reviewed when evaluating segment performance.

The group comprised of the Company’s (i) Chief Executive Officer, (ii) Chief Operating Officer, and (iii) Chief Financial Officer functions as the Company’s CODM. The Company’s CODM manages business operations and evaluates the performance of each segment based on the net sales and operating income (loss) of the segment. The CODM considers actual performance relative to expectations and growth potential to determine the appropriate allocation of resources to each segment.

Net sales by segment are presented by attributing revenues to a physical store location or geographical region that fulfills the order. Operating income (loss) for each segment includes net sales to third parties, related cost of sales and operating expenses directly attributed to the segment. Corporate/other expenses include expenses incurred that are not directly attributed to a reportable segment and primarily relate to corporate or global functions such as design, sourcing, brand management, corporate strategy, information technology, finance, treasury, legal, human resources, and other corporate support services, as well as certain globally managed components of the planning, merchandising, and marketing functions.

The Company reports inventories by segment as that information is used by the CODM in determining allocation of resources to the segments. The Company does not report its other assets by segment as that information is not used by the CODM in assessing segment performance or allocating resources.

The following tables provide the Company’s segment information as of November 1, 2025, February 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024, and for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024:

OVERVIEW

Business summary

The Company is a global, digitally-led omnichannel retailer. The Company offers a broad assortment of apparel, personal care products and accessories for men, women and kids, which are sold primarily through its Company-owned stores and digital channels, as well as through various third-party arrangements.

The Company manages its business on a geographic basis, consisting of three reportable segments: Americas; Europe, the Middle East and Africa (“EMEA”); and Asia-Pacific (“APAC”). Corporate functions and other income and expenses are evaluated on a consolidated basis and are not allocated to the Company’s segments, and therefore are included as a reconciling item between segment and total operating income.

The Company’s brand families include Abercrombie brands and Hollister brands. These brands share a commitment to offering unique products of enduring quality and exceptional comfort that allow customers around the world to express their own individuality and style.

The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Saturday closest to January 31. All references herein to the Company’s fiscal years are as follows:
Fiscal yearYear ended/endingNumber of weeks

Fiscal 2025January 31, 202652
Fiscal 2026January 30, 202752

Seasonality

Historically, the Company’s operations have been seasonal in nature and consist of two principal selling seasons: the spring season, which includes the first and second fiscal quarters (“Spring”), and the fall season, which includes the third and fourth fiscal quarters (“Fall”). Due to the seasonal nature of the retail apparel industry, the results of operations for any current period are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full fiscal year, and the Company could have significant fluctuations in certain asset and liability accounts. The Company historically experiences its greatest sales activity during the Fall season due to back-to-school and holiday sales periods, respectively.

CURRENT TRENDS AND OUTLOOK

Focus areas for Fiscal 2025

The Company introduced the Always Forward Plan in June 2022. The Always Forward Plan is anchored on our strategic growth principles, which are to:
Execute focused growth plans;
Accelerate an enterprise-wide digital revolution; and
Operate with financial discipline.

While the Company has significantly outperformed certain financial targets set forth in the Always Forward Plan, the growth principles continue to serve as a framework for the Company achieving sustainable and profitable growth.

The Company’s strategic priorities continue to evolve based on changing consumer demands and new strategic opportunities, and management reviews and prioritizes investments and strategic focus areas to address such demands and opportunities.

The Company’s focus areas for Fiscal 2025 are to:

Execute focused growth plans by:
driving sales growth across regions and brand families primarily through marketing and store investments in our owned and operating channels, while pursuing new geographies and markets via franchise, wholesale and licensing partnerships;
using our regionally relevant brand playbooks globally to align the brands’ products, voices, and experiences with customers, both digitally and in-store; and
using testing and chase strategies to deliver compelling assortments and product collections across genders.

Accelerate an enterprise-wide digital revolution to improve the customer and associate experience by:
continuing to progress on our multi-year ERP system transformation, including through the implementation of our new merchandising and human capital management systems anticipated in the first half of Fiscal 2026, as well as our cloud migration journey; and
investing in digital and technology to improve experiences across key parts of the customer journey while delivering a consistent omnichannel experience.

Table of Contents
Operate with financial discipline by:
using our agile inventory model and pricing strategies to position the Company to support customer demand throughout the year; and
maintaining our durable balance sheet and consistent free cash flow profile, underpinned by our disciplined investment philosophy while balancing against macro environment impacts and efficiency efforts.

Current macroeconomic conditions and tariffs

Macroeconomic conditions such as a volatile interest rate environment, ongoing inflation, the geopolitical landscape, and foreign exchange rate fluctuations continue to impact the global economy. In addition, changes in legislative and regulatory developments during the year, including enacted and proposed tariffs and other trade policies, have introduced further uncertainty in the global economy and have impacted our business and operations. For example, during Fiscal 2025, the U.S. announced a new universal baseline tariff on all U.S. imports, plus additional country-specific tariffs for select countries, including the countries from which we source a predominant portion of our merchandise. In response to U.S.-imposed tariffs, certain countries have imposed retaliatory tariffs on U.S. exports. The U.S. has reached trade agreements with certain countries. However, U.S. tariff rates on imports from other countries and other reciprocal tariffs have remained in effect and are subject to ongoing trade negotiations as of the date of this filing. It is also possible that further tariffs may be introduced, increased, or that existing tariffs may further change, including as a result of pending court rulings. These continued uncertainties regarding the future impact of tariffs and global trade relations could lead to weakened business conditions for our industry and could adversely impact our ability to procure, and/or result in increases to the cost of merchandise sourced from impacted countries.

We continue to evaluate the impact of tariffs and other trade policies on our business and we are continuing to build and execute against our playbook of mitigation strategies. Current mitigation strategies include evaluating supply chain footprint changes, negotiating with our supply chain vendors, pursuing operating expense reductions and determining ways to increase average unit retail (“AUR”) including through lower promotions, lower clearance selling and targeted ticket increases starting post-holiday. Assuming the estimated impact from the tariffs on goods imported into the U.S. based on trade policies in effect as of November 21, 2025, and factoring in certain planned mitigation strategies, we expect to incur approximately $90 million of net tariff expense, or 170 basis points as a percent of net sales, which will correspondingly negatively impact our operating profit in Fiscal 2025.

Further, in periods of perceived or actual unfavorable economic conditions, consumers may reallocate available discretionary spending or determine that they have fewer funds available for discretionary spending, which may also adversely impact demand for our products. Continued inflationary pressures could further impact expenses and have a long-term impact on the Company as increasing costs may impact our ability to maintain satisfactory margins.

Global events and supply chain disruptions

As a global multi-brand omnichannel specialty retailer, with operations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, and Asia, among other regions, management is mindful of macroeconomic risks, global challenges and the changing global geopolitical environment. The global supply chain also continues to be negatively impacted by various factors, including disruptions in major maritime routes, higher operational costs, and increased competition for supply chain availability due to uncertainty regarding tariffs and trade policy.

Management continues to monitor global events and assess the potential impacts that these and similar events may have on the business in future periods. Although management also develops and updates contingency plans to assist in mitigating potential impacts, it is possible that the Company’s preparations for such events are not adequate to mitigate their impact, and that these events could further adversely affect its business and results of operations.

Global store network modernization and growth

The Company has a goal of finding the right size, right location and right economics for omni-enabled stores that cater to local customers. The Company continues to use data to inform its focus on aligning store square footage with digital penetration, and has delivered new store experiences across brands during Fiscal 2025.

Through the end of the third fiscal quarter, the Company opened 48 new stores, remodeled 24 stores and right-sized eight stores, while closing 10 stores. As part of this focus, the Company’s store investment plan includes delivering approximately 40 net store openings during Fiscal 2025 consisting of opening approximately 60 new stores, while closing approximately 20 stores, pending negotiations with our landlord partners. Additionally, the Company expects approximately 40 remodels and right-sizes, during Fiscal 2025, pending negotiations with our landlord partners.

Future closures could be completed through natural lease expirations, while certain other leases include early termination options that can be exercised under specific conditions. The Company may also elect to exit or modify other leases, and could incur charges related to these actions.

Recent Tax Law Changes

On July 4, 2025, House Resolution 1, also known as the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”), was signed into law. The OBBBA includes, among other provisions, changes to U.S. corporate income tax law impacting the taxation of domestic and international business operations, including permanently extending certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, restoration of accelerated depreciation on capital expenditures, deductible research and experimental expenditures, and modifications to the international tax framework. The enactment of the OBBBA did not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and disclosures.

Pillar Two Model Rules

In 2021, the Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development (“OECD”) released Pillar Two Global Anti-Base Erosion model rules (“Pillar Two Rules”), designed to ensure large corporations are taxed at a minimum rate of 15% in all countries of operation. Although the U.S. withdrew from the OECD’s global tax agreement in January 2025, other countries where the Company does business, including the U.K. and Germany, have enacted legislation implementing Pillar Two Rules, which are effective from January 1, 2024. The implementation of Pillar Two Rules in each jurisdiction in which the Company operates did not have a material impact on the Company’s effective tax rate for Fiscal 2024, and the Company does not project a material impact on the effective tax rate for Fiscal 2025. The Company will continue to evaluate the impact as additional jurisdictions enact legislation and provide further guidance.

For a discussion of material risks that have the potential to cause our actual results to differ materially from our expectations, refer to Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” on the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K.

For the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, net sales increased 7%, as compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to mid-single-digit unit volume growth, with an increase in comparable company owned and operated stores, digital channels, net new owned and operated stores and low-single-digit AUR growth. The year-over-year increase in net sales reflects positive comparable sales of 3%, as compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. On a geographic basis for the third quarter of Fiscal 2025:
Net sales growth in the Americas region of 7% and 4% on a comparable basis. The increase was attributable to mid-single-digit unit volume growth, with increases in comparable company owned and operated stores, digital channels and net new owned and operated stores.
Net sales growth in the EMEA region of 7% and 2% on a comparable basis. The increase was attributable to low-double-digit AUR growth and favorable foreign currency, partially offset by mid-single-digit unit volume decline, with decreases in comparable company owned and operated stores and digital channels.
Net sales decline in the APAC region of (6)% and (12)% on a comparable basis. The decline was led by low-double-digit unit volume decline, with decreases in comparable owned and operated store and digital channels, partially offset by mid-single-digit AUR growth.
For the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, net sales increased 7%, as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. The increase was primarily attributable to high-single-digit unit volume growth, with increases in comparable company owned and operated stores, digital channels and net new owned and operated stores. The year-over-year increase in net sales reflects positive comparable sales of 4%, as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. On a geographic basis for the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025:
Net sales growth in the Americas region of 7% and 5% on a comparable basis. The increase was led by high-single-digit unit volume growth, with increases in comparable company owned and operated stores, digital channels and net new owned and operated stores.
Net sales growth in the EMEA region of 6% and flat on a comparable basis. The increase was attributable to mid-single digit AUR growth, favorable foreign currency and an increase in sales volume in net new stores, offset by relatively flat unit growth.
Net sales growth in the APAC region of 3% and 2% on a comparable sales basis. The increase was attributable to mid-single digit AUR growth, a high-single digit increase in digital channels, partially offset by a decrease in comparable owned and operated stores. Sales growth was negatively impacted by low-single digit unit volume decline with declines in comparable owned and operated stores, partially offset by growth in digital channels.

For the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately 260 basis points, as compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. The percentage increase was primarily attributable to higher average unit cost (“AUC”) partially due to an approximate 210 basis point adverse tariff impact, with the remaining impact from product mix compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024.

For the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, cost of sales, exclusive of depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately 300 basis points, as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. The percentage increase was primarily attributable to cost of sales deleverage with AUR approximately flat driven by volume mix and targeted promotions, higher AUC primarily related to an approximate 90 basis point adverse tariff impact, and 40 basis points in higher freight costs compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024.

Selling expense as a percentage of net sales increased 80 basis points, as compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. The increase in rate was primarily driven by expense deleverage, with an approximate 100 basis point increase in marketing and an approximate 40 basis point increase in store occupancy and payrolls costs, partially offset by approximately 80 basis points in fulfillment expense.

For the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, selling expense increased by $71 million as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. Selling expense as a percentage of net sales decreased 30 basis points as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. The decrease in rate was primarily driven by expense leverage, including an approximate 120 basis point benefit resulting from the Litigation Settlement and approximately 70 basis points in fulfillment expense, partially offset by an approximate 70 basis point increase in store occupancy and payroll costs and an approximate 60 basis point increase in marketing. Excluding 120 basis points of benefits related to the Litigation Settlement, adjusted non-GAAP selling expense as a percentage of net sales increased by approximately 90 basis points during the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024.

For the third quarter of Fiscal 2025, interest income, net decreased $2.8 million, as compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024. The net decrease was a result of a reduction in interest income due to the decrease in balance on time deposits and money market accounts compared to the third quarter of Fiscal 2024.

For the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, interest income, net decreased $3.8 million, as compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. The net decrease was a result of a reduction in interest income due to the decrease in balance on time deposits and money market accounts compared to the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024. This was partially offset by lower interest expense in Fiscal 2025 compared to Fiscal 2024 as a result of the redemption of the remaining outstanding balance of the 8.75% Senior Secured Notes on July 15, 2024.

The change in the effective tax rate for the third quarter and year-to-date period of Fiscal 2025, as compared with the third quarter and the year-to-date period of Fiscal 2024, is due to jurisdictional mix, a lower tax benefit on share-based compensation compared with the prior year, and the establishment of an additional valuation allowance in Japan.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

Overview

The Company’s capital allocation strategy and priorities are reviewed by the Board of Directors quarterly, considering both liquidity and valuation factors. The Company believes that it will have adequate liquidity to fund operating activities for the next twelve months. The Company monitors market conditions and may in the future determine whether and when to repurchase shares of its Common Stock. For a discussion of the Company’s share repurchase activity, please see below under “Share repurchases.”

Primary sources and uses of cash

The Company’s business has two principal selling seasons: Spring and Fall. The Company generally experiences its greatest sales activity during the Fall season due to the back-to-school and holiday sales periods. The Company relies on excess operating cash flows, which are largely generated in Fall, to fund operations throughout the year and to reinvest in the business to support future growth. The Company also has the ABL Facility available as a source of additional funding, which is described further below under “Credit facility.

Over the next twelve months, the Company expects its primary cash requirements to be directed towards prioritizing investments in the business and continuing to fund operating activities, including the acquisition of inventory, obligations related to compensation, marketing, data and technology, leases and any lease buyouts or modifications it may exercise, taxes and other operating activities. In addition, management continuously evaluates potential opportunities to strategically deploy excess cash and/or deleverage the balance sheet, in consideration of various factors, such as market and business conditions, and the Company’s ability to accelerate investments in the business. Such opportunities may include, but are not limited to, share repurchases.

When evaluating opportunities for investments in the business, management considers alignment with initiatives that position the business for sustainable long-term growth and with the Company’s strategic pillars as described within Part I, “Item 1. Business - STRATEGY AND KEY BUSINESS PRIORITIES” included in the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K, including being opportunistic regarding growth opportunities. Examples of potential investment opportunities include, but are not limited to, new store experiences, and investments in the Company’s digital and omnichannel initiatives. Historically, the Company has utilized free cash flow generated from operations to fund any discretionary capital expenditures, which have been prioritized towards new store experiences, as well as digital and omnichannel investments, and information technology. For the year-to-date period ended November 1, 2025, the Company invested $185.2 million towards capital expenditures. Total capital expenditures for Fiscal 2025 are expected to be approximately $225 million.

The Company measures liquidity using total cash and cash equivalents and incremental borrowing available under the ABL Facility. As of November 1, 2025, the Company had cash and cash equivalents of $605.8 million and total liquidity of approximately $1.1 billion, compared with cash and cash equivalents of $772.7 million and total liquidity of approximately $1.2 billion at the beginning of Fiscal 2025.

Share repurchases

In March 2025, the Company announced that the Board of Directors approved a $1.3 billion share repurchase program (the “2025 Authorization”), which replaced the prior share repurchase program of $500 million authorized by the Board of Directors in 2021. The 2025 Authorization does not have an expiration date.

During the year-to-date period ended November 1, 2025, the Company repurchased approximately 4.5 million shares of its Common Stock pursuant to the 2025 Authorization for approximately $350 million. As of November 1, 2025, the Company had $950 million in share repurchases remaining under the 2025 Authorization.

Historically, the Company has repurchased shares of its Common Stock from time to time, which repurchases are dependent on excess liquidity, market conditions and business conditions, with the objectives of returning excess cash to shareholders and offsetting dilution from issuances of Common Stock associated with the vesting of restricted stock units. Shares may be repurchased from time to time in open market or private transactions in such manner as may be deemed advisable from time to time (including, without limitation, pursuant to accelerated share repurchase programs, one or more 10b5-1 trading plans, or any other method deemed advisable) and may be discontinued at any time. The timing and amount of any such repurchases will be determined based on an evaluation of market conditions, the Company’s share price, legal requirements, and other factors. The Company is not obligated to repurchase any specific amount of shares of its Common Stock.

Credit facility

On August 2, 2024, A&F, as parent and a guarantor, A&F Management Co., as lead borrower, and certain of A&F’s direct and indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries, as additional borrowers and guarantors, entered into the Second Amendment to the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “ABL Credit Agreement”). The ABL Credit Agreement provides for the ABL Facility, which is a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of up to $500 million. As of November 1, 2025, the Company did not have any borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility.

Details regarding the remaining borrowing capacity under the ABL Facility as of November 1, 2025 are as follows:
(in thousands)November 1, 2025
Loan cap$500,000

Borrowing capacity available$449,546 
(1)    Under the ABL Facility, the Company must maintain excess availability equal to the greater of 10% of the loan cap or $36 million.

Refer to Note 11, “BORROWINGS.”

Income taxes

The Company’s earnings and profits from its foreign subsidiaries could be repatriated to the U.S. without incurring additional federal income tax. The Company determined that the balance of the Company’s undistributed earnings and profits from its foreign subsidiaries as of February 2, 2019 are considered indefinitely reinvested outside of the U.S., and if these funds were to be repatriated to the U.S., the Company would expect to incur an insignificant amount of state income taxes and foreign withholding taxes. The Company accrues for both state income taxes and foreign withholding taxes with respect to earnings and profits earned after February 2, 2019, in such a manner that these funds could be repatriated without incurring additional tax expense. As of November 1, 2025, $205.8 million of the Company’s $605.8 million of cash and equivalents were held by foreign affiliates.

Refer to Note 10, “INCOME TAXES.”

Analysis of cash flows

The table below provides certain components of the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024:

Operating activities - During the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 1, 2025, net cash provided by operating activities included an increase in cash outflows related to the timing of merchandise and advertising payables and higher inventory product costs, partially offset by increased cash receipts as a result of the 7% year-over-year increase in net sales. During the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 2, 2024, net cash provided by operating activities included increased cash receipts as a result of the 19% year-over-year increase in net sales.

Investing activities - During the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 1, 2025, net cash used for investing activities was primarily used for capital expenditures of $185 million, as well as the purchase of $15.0 million of marketable securities, partially offset by the maturity of $105 million of marketable securities. Net cash used for investing activities for the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 2, 2024 was primarily used for capital expenditures of $132.0 million, as well as the purchase of $55.0 million of marketable securities.

Table of Contents
Financing activities - During the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 1, 2025, net cash used for financing activities included the purchase of approximately 4.5 million shares of Common Stock with a market value of approximately $351 million and $36 million related to shares of Common Stock withheld (repurchased) to cover tax withholdings upon vesting of share-based compensation awards. During the fiscal year-to-date period ended November 2, 2024, net cash used for financing activities included the repurchase of $9.3 million in the open market and redemption of $214.0 million of outstanding Senior Secured Notes, $69.6 million related to shares of Common Stock withheld (repurchased) to cover tax withholdings upon vesting of share-based compensation awards, and the purchase of approximately 0.9 million shares of Common Stock with a market value of approximately $129.8 million.

Contractual obligations

The Company’s contractual obligations consist primarily of operating leases, purchase orders for merchandise inventory, unrecognized tax benefits, certain retirement obligations, lease deposits, and other agreements to purchase goods and services that are legally binding and that require minimum quantities to be purchased. These contractual obligations impact the Company’s short-term and long-term liquidity and capital resource needs.

There have been no material changes in the Company’s contractual obligations since February 1, 2025, with the exception of those obligations which occurred in the normal course of business (primarily changes in the Company’s merchandise inventory-related purchases and lease obligations, which fluctuate throughout the year as a result of the seasonal nature of the Company’s operations).

RECENT ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

The Company describes its significant accounting policies in Note 2, “SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES,” of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements contained in “Item 8. Financial Statements and Supplementary Data” included on the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K. The Company reviews recent accounting pronouncements on a quarterly basis and has excluded discussion of those not applicable to the Company and those that did not have, or are not expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING ESTIMATES

The Company describes its critical accounting estimates in “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included on the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K. There have been no significant changes in critical accounting policies and estimates since the end of Fiscal 2024.

NON-GAAP FINANCIAL MEASURES

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q includes discussion of certain financial measures calculated and presented on both a GAAP and a non-GAAP basis. The Company believes that each of the non-GAAP financial measures presented in this “Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” is useful to investors as it provides a meaningful basis to evaluate the Company’s operating performance excluding the effect of certain items that the Company believes may not reflect its future operating outlook, thereby supplementing investors’ understanding of comparability of operations across periods. Management used these non-GAAP financial measures during the periods presented to assess the Company’s performance and to develop expectations for future operating performance. These non-GAAP financial measures should be used as a supplement to, and not as an alternative to, the Company’s GAAP financial results, and may not be calculated in the same manner as similar measures presented by other companies.

Comparable sales

The Company provides comparable sales, defined as the year-over-year percentage change in the aggregate of (1) net sales for stores that have been open as the same brand at least one year and square footage has not been expanded or reduced by more than 20% within the past year, with the prior year’s net sales converted at the current year’s foreign currency exchange rates to remove the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations, and (2) digital net sales with the prior year’s net sales converted at the current year’s foreign currency exchange rates to remove the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Comparable sales excludes revenue other than store and digital sales. Management uses comparable sales to understand the drivers of year-over-year changes in net sales and believes that comparable sales can be a useful metric as it can assist investors in distinguishing the portion of the Company’s revenue attributable to existing locations from the portion attributable to the opening or closing of stores. The most directly comparable GAAP financial measure is change in net sales.

Financial information on a constant currency basis

The Company provides certain financial information on a constant currency basis to enhance investors’ understanding of underlying business trends and operating performance by removing the impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. Management also uses financial information on a constant currency basis to award employee performance-based compensation. The effect from foreign currency exchange rates, calculated on a constant currency basis, is determined by applying the current period’s foreign currency exchange rates to the prior year’s results and is net of the year-over-year impact from hedging. The per diluted share effect from foreign currency exchange rates is calculated using a 26% effective tax rate.

EBITDA AND ADJUSTED EBITDA

The Company provides EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA as supplemental measures used by the Company’s executive management to assess the Company’s performance. We also believe these supplemental performance measures are meaningful information for investors and other interested parties to use in computing the Company’s core financial performance over multiple periods and with other companies by excluding the impact of differences in tax jurisdictions, debt service levels and capital investment.

A reconciliation of non-GAAP EBITDA to net income, a financial measure calculated and presented in accordance with GAAP, and the adjustments made in calculating adjusted EBITDA for the thirteen and thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024 were as follows:

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

INVESTMENT SECURITIES

The Company maintains its cash equivalents in financial instruments, primarily time deposits and money market funds, with original maturities of three months or less. The Company is also invested in short-term marketable securities with maturities less than twelve months. Due to the short-term nature of these instruments, changes in interest rates are not expected to materially affect the fair value of these financial instruments.

The Rabbi Trust includes amounts to meet funding obligations to participants in the Abercrombie & Fitch Co. Nonqualified Savings and Supplemental Retirement Plan I, the Abercrombie & Fitch Co. Nonqualified Savings and Supplemental Retirement Plan II, and the Supplemental Executive Retirement Plan. The Rabbi Trust assets primarily consist of trust-owned life insurance policies, which are recorded at cash surrender value. The change in cash surrender value resulted in realized gains of $0.4 million and $0.3 million for the thirteen weeks ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024, respectively, and $1.1 million and $1.0 million for the thirty-nine weeks ended November 1, 2025 and November 2, 2024, respectively. The realized gains were recorded in interest income, net on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income.

The Rabbi Trust assets were included in other assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of November 1, 2025 and February 1, 2025 and are restricted in their use as noted above.

INTEREST RATE RISK

On July 15, 2024, the Company redeemed all of its outstanding 8.75% Senior Secured Notes, thereby eliminating that interest rate risk. This analysis for Fiscal 2025 may differ from the actual results due to potential changes in gross borrowings outstanding under the ABL Facility and potential changes in interest rate terms and limitations described within the Amended and Restated Credit Agreement.

FOREIGN CURRENCY EXCHANGE RATE RISK

A&F’s international subsidiaries generally operate with functional currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Since the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are presented in U.S. dollars, the Company must translate all components of these financial statements from functional currencies into U.S. dollars at exchange rates in effect during or at the end of the reporting period. The fluctuation in the value of the U.S. dollar against other currencies affects the reported amounts of revenues, expenses, assets, and liabilities. The potential impact of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations increases as international operations relative to domestic operations increase.

A&F and its subsidiaries have exposure to changes in foreign currency exchange rates associated with foreign currency transactions and forecasted foreign currency transactions, including the purchase of inventory between subsidiaries and foreign-currency-denominated assets and liabilities. The Company has established a program that primarily utilizes foreign currency exchange forward contracts to partially offset the risks associated with the effects of certain foreign currency transactions and forecasted transactions. Under this program, increases or decreases in foreign currency exchange rate exposures are partially offset by gains or losses on foreign currency exchange forward contracts, to mitigate the impact of foreign currency exchange gains or losses. The Company does not use forward contracts to engage in currency speculation. Outstanding foreign currency exchange forward contracts are recorded at fair value at the end of each fiscal period.

Foreign currency exchange forward contracts are sensitive to changes in foreign currency exchange rates. As of November 1, 2025, the Company assessed the risk of loss in fair values from the effect of a hypothetical 10% devaluation of the U.S. dollar against the exchange rates for foreign currencies under contract. Such a hypothetical devaluation would decrease derivative contract fair values by approximately $17.5 million. As the Company’s foreign currency exchange forward contracts are primarily designated as cash flow hedges of forecasted transactions, the hypothetical change in fair values would be expected to be largely offset by the net change in fair values of the underlying hedged items. Refer to Note 13, “DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS,” for the fair value of any outstanding foreign currency exchange forward contracts included in other current assets and accrued expenses as of November 1, 2025 and February 1, 2025.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

DISCLOSURE CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

A&F maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act) that are designed to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports that A&F files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to A&F’s management, including A&F’s Principal Executive Officer and Principal Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. Because of inherent limitations, disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of disclosure controls and procedures are met.

A&F’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer of A&F (who serves as Principal Executive Officer of A&F) and the Senior Vice President and Chief Financial Officer of A&F (who serves as Principal Financial Officer of A&F), evaluated the effectiveness of A&F’s design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2025. The Chief Executive Officer of A&F (in such individual’s capacity as the Principal Executive Officer of A&F) and the Senior Vice President, Chief Financial Officer of A&F (in such individual’s capacity as the Principal Financial Officer of A&F) concluded that A&F’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at a reasonable level of assurance as of November 1, 2025.


CHANGES IN INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

There were no changes in A&F’s internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act) during the fiscal quarter ended November 1, 2025 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, A&F’s internal control over financial reporting.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company and its affiliates are defendants in lawsuits and other adversary proceedings that may range from individual actions involving a single plaintiff to class action lawsuits. The Company’s legal costs incurred in connection with the resolution of claims and lawsuits are generally expensed as incurred, and the Company establishes estimated liabilities for the outcome of litigation where losses are deemed probable and the amount of loss, or range of loss, is reasonably estimable. The Company also determines estimates of reasonably possible losses or ranges of reasonably possible losses in excess of related accrued liabilities, if any, when it has determined that a loss is reasonably possible, and it is able to determine such estimates. The Company’s accrued charges for certain legal contingencies are classified within accrued expenses on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets included in “Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited),” of Part I of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on currently available information, the Company cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses in excess of the accrued charges for legal contingencies. In addition, the Company has not established accruals for certain claims and legal proceedings pending against the Company where it is not possible to reasonably estimate the outcome or potential liability, and the Company cannot estimate a range of reasonably possible losses for these legal matters. Actual liabilities may differ from the amounts recorded, due to uncertainties regarding final settlement agreement negotiations and the terms of any approval by the courts, and there can be no assurance that the final resolution of legal matters will not have a material adverse effect on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. The Company’s assessment of the current exposure could change in the event of the discovery of additional facts.

In addition, pursuant to Item 103(c)(3)(iii) of Regulation S-K under the Exchange Act, the Company is required to disclose certain information about environmental proceedings to which a governmental authority is a party if the Company reasonably believes such proceedings may result in monetary sanctions, exclusive of interest and costs, above a stated threshold. The Company has elected to apply a threshold of $1 million for purposes of determining whether disclosure of any such proceedings is required.

Item 1A. Risk Factors

The Company’s risk factors as of November 1, 2025 have not changed materially from those disclosed in Part I, “Item 1A. Risk Factors” of the Fiscal 2024 Form 10-K.
