Growth was broad-based across regions and brands with Abercrombie brands registering 31% growth and Hollister brands delivering growth of 12%.

The following outlook replaces all previous full year guidance. For fiscal 2024, the company now expects:
- Net sales up around 10% from $4.3 billion in fiscal 2023. This is an increase to the previous outlook of growth in the range of 4% to 6%. We expect Abercrombie brands will continue to outperform Hollister brands and the Americas will continue to lead the regional performance.
The following table illustrates the expected quarterly and full year net sales and related basis point impact of the calendar shift and loss of one selling week in fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023.

Basis point impact | +120 bps | +320 bps | -90 bps | -550 bps | -120 bps |
- Operating margin to be around 14%. This range improves from the previous outlook of around 12%. We expect the year-over-year improvement to be driven by a higher gross profit rate and some operating expense leverage.
- Effective tax rate to be in the mid-to-high 20s, with the rate being sensitive to the jurisdictional mix and level of income.
- Capital expenditures of approximately $170 million.

Reporting and Use of GAAP and Non-GAAP Measures
The company believes that each of the non-GAAP financial measures presented are useful to investors as they provide a measure of the company’s operating performance excluding the effect of certain items which the company believes do not reflect its future operating outlook, such as asset impairment charges, therefore 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. Non-GAAP financial measures should be used supplemental 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.
The company provides comparable sales, defined as the percentage year-over-year change in the aggregate of: (1) sales for stores that have been open as the same brand at least one year and whose square footage has not been expanded or reduced by more than 20% within the past year, with prior year’s net sales converted at the current year’s foreign currency exchange rate to remove the impact of foreign currency rate fluctuation, and (2) digital net sales with prior year’s net sales converted at the current year’s foreign currency exchange rate to remove the impact of foreign currency rate fluctuation.
The company also 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. The effect from foreign currency, calculated on a constant currency basis, is determined by applying current year average exchange rates to prior year results and is net of the year-over-year impact from hedging. The per diluted share effect from foreign currency is calculated using a 26% tax rate.
In addition, 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.
