constant currency financial
"This presentation also refers to both “constant dollar” and “constant currency” amounts"
Constant currency is a way of measuring financial results that removes the effects of changes in currency exchange rates. It allows for a clearer comparison of a company's performance over time by showing what the numbers would look like if exchange rates had stayed the same. This helps investors understand whether growth comes from actual business improvements or just currency fluctuations.
free cash flow financial
"VF defines “free cash flow” as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures"
Free cash flow is the amount of money a company has left over after paying all its expenses and investing in its business, like buying equipment or updating facilities. It shows how much cash is available to reward shareholders, pay down debt, or save for future growth. This helps investors understand if a company is financially healthy and able to grow.
net debt financial
"VF defines “net debt” as long-term debt, the current portion of long-term debt, short-term borrowings"
Net debt is the total amount a company owes after subtracting the cash and assets it has that can be used to pay off that debt. It shows how much debt is truly a burden, helping investors understand if a company is financially healthy or heavily borrowed. Think of it like calculating how much money you owe after using your savings to pay part of it.
operating margin financial
"Operating income (loss) of ($83M) and operating margin (OM) of (5.0%)"
Operating margin shows how much profit a company makes from its core business activities after paying for costs like wages and materials. It’s useful because it tells you how efficiently a company is running—higher margins mean it keeps more money from each dollar of sales, which can indicate better management or stronger products.
Reinvent financial
"The adjusted amounts in this presentation exclude costs (benefits) related to Reinvent, VF's transformation program"

Q1’27 Earnings July 29, 2026
2 Financial Presentation Disclosure Q1’27 Earnings All per share amounts are presented on a diluted basis. This presentation refers to “reported” (R$) and “constant dollar” (C$) or “constant currency” amounts, terms that are described under the heading below “Constant Currency - Excluding the Impact of Foreign Currency.” Unless otherwise noted, “reported” and “constant dollar” or “constant currency” amounts are the same, and amounts will be as “reported” unless otherwise specified. This presentation also refers to results “excluding Dickies®” and “Adjusted excluding Dickies”, which are described under the heading “Dickies Divestiture”. This presentation also refers to “adjusted” amounts, a term that is described under the heading “Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Reinvent”. Unless otherwise noted, “reported” and “adjusted” amounts are the same. VF operates and reports using a 52/53 week fiscal year ending on the Saturday closest to March 31 of each year. Fiscal 2027 contains 53 weeks, with an additional week occurring in the fourth quarter. This presentation refers to VF's first quarter of Fiscal 2027 as Q1'27, and similarly Q1'26 denotes VF's first quarter of Fiscal 2026, etc. VF defines “free cash flow” as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and software purchases, defines “net debt” as long-term debt, the current portion of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and operating lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents per VF's consolidated balance sheet and defines “leverage” as net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), which excludes operating lease cost. Dickies Divestiture On September 15, 2025, VF entered into a definitive agreement with Bluestar Alliance LLC to sell the Dickies® brand business (“Dickies”) and on November 12, 2025, VF completed the sale of Dickies. The Dickies sale did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and "reported" amounts include Dickies results in continuing operations through the date of sale. References to results “excluding Dickies®” and “Adjusted excluding Dickies” exclude the results of Dickies in the prior year period. VF believes this non-GAAP presentation provides investors with useful information regarding VF’s current business trends and performance of VF’s operations, post the closing of the sale of Dickies. Constant Currency - Excluding the Impact of Foreign Currency This presentation refers to “reported” amounts in accordance with GAAP, which include translation and transactional impacts from foreign currency exchange rates. This presentation also refers to both “constant dollar” and “constant currency” amounts, which exclude the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. Reconciliations of GAAP measures to constant currency amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this presentation, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors. Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Reinvent The adjusted amounts in this presentation exclude costs (benefits) related to Reinvent, VF's transformation program. Costs (benefits), including restructuring charges and project-related costs, were approximately ($11) million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027. The above items positively impacted GAAP earnings per share by $0.02 during the first quarter of Fiscal 2027. All adjusted amounts referenced herein exclude the effects of these amounts. Reconciliations of measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to adjusted amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this presentation, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking measures where the company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors and is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred and are out of the company's control or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.

Executive Summary 4Q1’27 Earnings
Sensitivity: Internal Use Bracken Darrell President & CEO "We had a solid start to the year, beating our revenue and operating income guidance. The North Face®, Timberland® and Altra® delivered another quarter of growth; and Vans® Americas DTC continued to grow but was more than offset by declines in global Wholesale. We expect Vans® Wholesale to improve significantly in the second half of the year. Given our overall Q1 performance and better visibility into the balance of the year, we are raising our FY'27 revenue guidance." Darrell continued, “Regarding our CFO transition announced today, I would like to thank Paul for his partnership, leadership and contributions to VF. Looking ahead, I’m excited for Abhishek to step into his newly expanded role of Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. He is a proven leader with deep knowledge of our business and our industry, and I am confident he is well positioned to drive strong execution against our key financial and operational priorities.” 5Q1’27 Earnings

Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amounts reported by VF from translating its foreign revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results. As a supplement to our reported operating results, we present constant currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We use constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how our business performed excluding the effects of changes in the rates used to calculate foreign currency translation. Management believes this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparison of operating results and better identify trends in our businesses. To calculate foreign currency translation on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current year period for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year (rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current year period). These constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.

A gain of $17.6 million and an impairment charge of $6.4 million related to the sale of a distribution center and an impairment of a leased distribution center, respectively, are included in the Reinvent amounts for the three months ended June 2026, as the actions leading to the gain and the impairment charge were initiated under Reinvent. Expenses related to the engagement of a consulting firm to support VF's transformation journey are also included in the Reinvent charges. VF entered into a contract with a consulting firm during the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, with services under the contract substantially completed in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026. In addition to payment for services, the contract includes contingent fees tied to increases in VF's stock price through June 2027. Expenses related to the contract, which only related to changes in the fair value of the contingent fees, were ($0.3) million in the three months ended June 2026. Reinvent resulted in a net tax expense of $3.1 million in the three months ended June 2026. The Company incurred $193.8 million in total restructuring charges in connection with Reinvent. Substantially all restructuring actions were completed at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2026. Total fees associated with the contract with the consulting firm could be up to $146.0 million, with $75.0 million of the fees contingent on increases to VF’s stock price through June 2027. (b) Amounts shown in the table have been calculated using unrounded numbers. The diluted loss per share impacts were calculated using 392,107,000 weighted average common shares for the three months ended June 2026. Non-GAAP Financial Information The financial information above has been presented on a GAAP basis and on an adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of Reinvent. The adjusted presentation provides non-GAAP measures and is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Management believes these measures provide investors with useful supplemental information regarding VF's underlying business trends and the performance of VF's ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations. Management uses the above financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, VF's operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These measures should be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations only in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Exhibit 99.2
VF CORPORATION DELIVERED FIRST QUARTER FISCAL 2027 AHEAD OF GUIDANCE
Raises full year revenue outlook to +2% or better C$ vs. LY
Appoints Abhishek Dalmia as Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer
DENVER, July 29, 2026 – VF Corporation (NYSE: VFC) today reported financial results for its first quarter (Q1'27) ended June 27, 2026 ahead of guidance and raises full year revenue outlook. The Company's Board of Directors authorized a quarterly per share dividend of $0.09. These financial results are also reflected in a presentation available on the Investor Relations website at ir.vfc.com.
Bracken Darrell, President and CEO, said: "We had a solid start to the year, beating our revenue and operating income guidance. The North Face®, Timberland® and Altra® delivered another quarter of growth; and Vans® Americas DTC continued to grow but was more than offset by declines in global Wholesale. We expect Vans® Wholesale to improve significantly in the second half of the year. Given our overall Q1 performance and better visibility into the balance of the year, we are raising our FY'27 revenue guidance."
Darrell continued, “Regarding our CFO transition announced today, I would like to thank Paul for his partnership, leadership and contributions to VF. Looking ahead, I’m excited for Abhishek to step into his newly expanded role of Chief Financial Officer and Chief Operating Officer. He is a proven leader with deep knowledge of our business and our industry, and I am confident he is well positioned to drive strong execution against our key financial and operational priorities.”

Fiscal 2027 contains 53 weeks, with an additional week occurring in the fourth quarter. This release refers to VF's first quarter of Fiscal 2027 as Q1'27, and similarly Q1'26 denotes VF's first quarter of Fiscal 2026, etc. VF defines “free cash flow” as cash flow from operations less capital expenditures and software purchases, defines “net debt” as long-term debt, the current portion of long-term debt, short-term borrowings, and operating lease liabilities, less cash and cash equivalents per VF's consolidated balance sheet and defines “leverage” as net debt to adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”), which excludes operating lease cost.
Dickies Divestiture
On September 15, 2025, VF entered into a definitive agreement with Bluestar Alliance LLC to sell the Dickies® brand business (“Dickies”) and on November 12, 2025, VF completed the sale of Dickies. The Dickies sale did not qualify for discontinued operations presentation under U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”) and "reported" amounts include Dickies results in continuing operations through the date of sale. References to results “excluding Dickies®” and “Adjusted excluding Dickies” exclude the results of Dickies in the prior year period. VF believes this non-GAAP presentation provides investors with useful information regarding VF’s current business trends and performance of VF’s operations, post the closing of the sale of Dickies.
Constant Currency - Excluding the Impact of Foreign Currency
This release refers to “reported” amounts in accordance with GAAP, which include translation and transactional impacts from foreign currency exchange rates. This release also refers to both “constant dollar” and “constant currency” amounts, which exclude the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. Reconciliations of GAAP measures to constant currency amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this release, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors.
Adjusted Amounts - Excluding Reinvent
The adjusted amounts in this release exclude costs (benefits) related to Reinvent, VF's transformation program. Costs (benefits), including restructuring charges and project-related costs, were approximately ($11) million in the first quarter of Fiscal 2027.
The above items positively impacted GAAP earnings per share by $0.02 during the first quarter of Fiscal 2027. All adjusted amounts referenced herein exclude the effects of these amounts.
Reconciliations of measures calculated in accordance with GAAP to adjusted amounts are presented in the supplemental financial information included with this release, which identifies and quantifies all excluded items, and provides management’s view of why this information is useful to investors. The company does not provide a reconciliation of forward-looking measures where the company believes such a reconciliation would imply a degree of precision and certainty that could be confusing to investors and is unable to reasonably predict certain items contained in the GAAP measures without unreasonable efforts. This is due to the inherent difficulty of forecasting the timing or amount of various items that have not yet occurred and are out of the company's control or cannot be reasonably predicted. For the same reasons, the company is unable to address the probable significance of the unavailable information.
Forward-looking Statements
Certain statements included in this release are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the safe harbor provisions of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements are made based on VF’s expectations and beliefs concerning future events impacting VF and therefore involve several risks and uncertainties. Words such as “will,” “anticipate,” “believe,” “estimate,” “expect,” “should,” and “may” and other words and terms of similar meaning or use of future dates may be used to identify forward-looking statements, however, the absence of these words or similar expressions does not mean that a statement is not forward-looking. All statements regarding VF’s plans, objectives, projections and expectations relating to VF’s operations or financial performance, and assumptions related thereto, are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements are not guarantees, and actual results could differ materially from those expressed or implied in the forward-looking statements. VF undertakes no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law.

Notes:
(a) Costs (benefits) related to Reinvent, VF's transformation program, including restructuring charges and project-related costs, were ($11.5) million in the three months ended June 2026. A gain of $17.6 million and an impairment charge of $6.4 million related to the sale of a distribution center and an impairment of a leased distribution center, respectively, are included in the Reinvent amounts for the three months ended June 2026, as the actions leading to the gain and the impairment charge were initiated under Reinvent. Expenses related to the engagement of a consulting firm to support VF's transformation journey are also included in the Reinvent charges. VF entered into a contract with a consulting firm during the second quarter of Fiscal 2025, with services under the contract substantially completed in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026. In addition to payment for services, the contract includes contingent fees tied to increases in VF's stock price through June 2027. Expenses related to the contract, which only related to changes in the fair value of the contingent fees, were ($0.3) million in the three months ended June 2026. Reinvent resulted in a net tax expense of $3.1 million in the three months ended June 2026.
The Company incurred $193.8 million in total restructuring charges in connection with Reinvent. Substantially all restructuring actions were completed at the end of the first quarter of Fiscal 2026. Total fees associated with the contract with the consulting firm could be up to $146.0 million, with $75.0 million of the fees contingent on increases to VF’s stock price through June 2027.
(b) Amounts shown in the table have been calculated using unrounded numbers. The diluted loss per share impacts were calculated using 392,107,000 weighted average common shares for the three months ended June 2026.
Non-GAAP Financial Information
The financial information above has been presented on a GAAP basis and on an adjusted basis, which excludes the impact of Reinvent. The adjusted presentation provides non-GAAP measures and is not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Management believes these measures provide investors with useful supplemental information regarding VF's underlying business trends and the performance of VF's ongoing operations and are useful for period-over-period comparisons of such operations.
Management uses the above financial measures internally in its budgeting and review process and, in some cases, as a factor in determining compensation. While management believes that these non-GAAP financial measures are useful in evaluating the business, this information should be considered as supplemental in nature and should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, VF's operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. In addition, these non-GAAP financial measures may not be the same as similarly titled measures presented by other companies. These measures should be used to evaluate the Company's results of operations only in conjunction with the corresponding GAAP measures.

Constant Currency Financial Information
VF is a global company that reports financial information in U.S. dollars in accordance with GAAP. Foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations affect the amounts reported by VF from translating its foreign revenues and expenses into U.S. dollars. These rate fluctuations can have a significant effect on reported operating results. As a supplement to our reported operating results, we present constant currency financial information, which is a non-GAAP financial measure that excludes the impact of translating foreign currencies into U.S. dollars. We use constant currency information to provide a framework to assess how our business performed excluding the effects of changes in the rates used to calculate foreign currency translation. Management believes this information is useful to investors to facilitate comparison of operating results and better identify trends in our businesses.
To calculate foreign currency translation on a constant currency basis, operating results for the current year period for entities reporting in currencies other than the U.S. dollar are translated into U.S. dollars at the average exchange rates in effect during the comparable period of the prior year (rather than the actual exchange rates in effect during the current year period).
These constant currency performance measures should be viewed in addition to, and not in lieu of or superior to, our operating performance measures calculated in accordance with GAAP. The constant currency information presented may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
