Building on the momentum of yesterday’s Q2 earnings call, in which Kontoor Brands raised its full year outlook, President, CEO and Chair of the Board Scott Baxter went on Bloomberg’s ‘The Close’ to explain how Kontoor is bucking the trend at a time of slumping retail stocks and consumer caution. “Our products are working in the marketplace,” Baxter said. “We have a really great product line that has really great value.” In addition to great value, Wrangler and Lee has an increasingly wide distribution across multiple channels in the U.S. and internationally, Baxter said. He added that the brands’ marketing, collaborations, and innovation are also strengthening Kontoor’s overall position with consumers. “For all those reasons, we’re really clicking with the consumer right now,” Baxter stressed. The Close’s co-host Romaine Bostick concluded the interview by recognizing Kontoor’s market performance as “one of the few bright spots” in a day when many stocks were down significantly.

Today, Kontoor Brands announced its 2024 Q2 results and raised its full year outlook. Scott Baxter, President, Chief Executive Officer and Chair of Kontoor Brands, said: “We delivered second quarter results that exceeded our expectations driven by higher revenue, stronger gross margin expansion and cash flow generation. Our fundamentals continue to improve, providing us with significant optionality to drive long-term value while returning more than $100 million to shareholders year-to-date. We are carrying great momentum into the second half of the year and are raising our outlook, including the impact of additional demand creation investments that will support profitable growth for the balance of the year and beyond.” Read full release here: https://lnkd.in/egJW_G2k
