| General [Abstract] | |
| GENERAL | GENERAL PVH Corp. and its consolidated subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”) constitute a global apparel company with a brand portfolio that includes TOMMY HILFIGER and Calvin Klein, which are owned, and Van Heusen, Nike and other brands, which the Company licenses for certain product categories. The Company designs and markets branded sportswear (casual apparel), jeanswear, performance apparel, intimate apparel, underwear, swimwear, dress shirts, handbags, accessories, footwear and other related products and licenses its owned brands globally over a broad array of product categories and for use in certain territories. The business conducted under the Van Heusen, Nike and other licensed brand names is referred to as the “Heritage Brands business.” The consolidated financial statements include all of the accounts of the Company. Intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation. Investments in entities that the Company does not control but has the ability to exercise significant influence over are accounted for using the equity method of accounting. The Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations include its proportionate share of the net income or loss of these entities. The Company’s fiscal years are based on the 52-53 week periods ending on the Sunday closest to February 1 and are designated by the calendar year in which the fiscal year commences. References to a year are to the Company’s fiscal year, unless the context requires otherwise. The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for interim financial information. Accordingly, they do not contain all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements. Reference is made to the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements, including the notes thereto, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 1, 2026. The preparation of the interim financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from these estimates. The results of operations for the thirteen and twenty-six weeks ended August 2, 2026 and August 3, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of those for a full fiscal year due, in part, to seasonal factors. Furthermore, the data contained in these consolidated financial statements are unaudited and are subject to year-end adjustments. However, in the opinion of management, all known adjustments have been made to present fairly the consolidated operating results for the unaudited periods. Macroeconomic Environment Inflation and other macroeconomic pressures, such as tariffs and the Middle East conflict (both discussed further below), elevated interest rates and the risk of recession, continue to create a complex and challenging retail environment globally. Macroeconomic factors are having, and are expected to continue to have, a negative impact on consumer demand for apparel and related products globally. The conflict in the Middle East, which began in March 2026, has resulted in disruption and instability in global supply chains, increased fuel and oil costs, foreign currency volatility (particularly in the euro), and continued volatility and uncertainty in global markets. These and other factors have had, and are expected to continue to have, broader macroeconomic implications that could have a significant impact on the Company’s business, including a decline in consumer spending and inventory availability. The Company has been experiencing an impact to wholesale demand in the direct Middle East region (which excludes Turkey). The Company has also been seeing a broader impact from the conflict on consumer purchasing behavior in Turkey and the greater European region, which are significant markets for the Company, including the effect of increased fuel prices, which has been causing, and may continue to cause, a decline in consumer traffic to stores and a more promotional environment. The length, scope and intensity of the conflict remain uncertain. Beginning in the first quarter of 2025, the United States government announced additional tariffs on goods imported into the United States primarily under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”), with incremental tariffs on products imported from most countries and economic unions. In February 2026, the U.S. Supreme Court ruled that the IEEPA tariffs imposed were unconstitutional. In response to that decision, an executive order was issued imposing tariffs pursuant to Section 122 of the Trade Act of 1974 for 150 days, effective on February 24, 2026, which subsequently expired on July 24, 2026. These tariffs are being challenged in court. On July 23, 2026, the Office of the U.S. Trade Representative took action under Section 301 of the Trade Act of 1974 and imposed new tariff rates ranging from 10% to 12.5% on most imports from certain countries. Additional investigations are being conducted under Section 301 and are expected to result in additional tariffs on goods imported into the United States by the Company. In March 2026, the U.S. Court of International Trade directed U.S. Customs and Border Protection (“CBP”) to refund IEEPA tariffs that were previously collected, including applicable interest. CBP launched a tariff refund program in April 2026 to facilitate the refunds, and the Company submitted claims for IEEPA tariffs that it had previously paid. The Company elected to apply a gain contingency model in accordance with ASC 450-30, “Gain Contingencies” to account for potential recoveries of previously paid tariffs under which a gain would not be recognized until realized or realizable. During the second quarter of 2026, the Company received the cash refunds related to previously paid tariffs for all claims that it had submitted under the tariff refund program and recognized a benefit of $106.7 million in cost of goods sold. Further trade policy actions are unclear, including whether additional tariffs or other actions may be imposed, modified, or suspended. These factors have led to significant volatility and uncertainty in global markets. The Company continues to analyze the impact of incremental tariffs on its business and is taking steps to mitigate its tariff exposure to the extent possible. Mitigation strategies have included, and may continue to more significantly include, further sourcing optimization, negotiations with the Company’s vendors, internal efficiencies to drive cost savings, optimizing discount strategies and pricing actions. There also is significant uncertainty with respect to the conflict in the Middle East and its impacts on the broader global macroeconomic environment, as well as the impacts of inflation and other macroeconomic factors, and foreign currency volatility. If economic conditions were to worsen due to any of these factors, the Company’s results of operations, financial condition and cash flows from operations may be materially and adversely impacted.
