BUSINESS OVERVIEW

KEY DRIVERS OF FY23 RESULTS

Entered year with historically high cotton costs and slowing demand - Elevated inventory levels and supply chains - Weakening consumer demand

- Post COVID consumer behavior

Made strategic decision to buy less cotton and reduce production to match lower demand

1H more challenging than industry anticipated and originally expected improving results/return to profitability in 2H

Demand destruction initially seen in mass retail supply chain eventually impacted other channels, with overall severity greater than industry expectations

Slower sell-through and more extensive production curtailment significantly impacted profitability throughout year:

  • ~$26m in excess cotton cost above 10-year average impacting COGS
  • ~$8m in production curtailment expenses impacting COGS
