PVH Corp. [NYSE: PVH] is today holding its 2022 Investor Day to introduce the PVH+ Plan, its multi-year, strategic growth plan, provide an overview of the opportunities to fully leverage the strength of its two iconic global brands in all regions, and share how this plan will achieve the Company’s financial objectives.

Stefan Larsson, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Having successfully driven an accelerated recovery and generated record earnings per share in 2021, our priority now is to connect with the consumer in ways that reflect the formula to win in the ‘new normal’ and create long-term value. The execution of the PVH+ Plan will accelerate the growth of Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER, two of the most iconic brands in the world, by unlocking their full potential across each of our regions.”

PVH+ Plan

The PVH+ Plan is the Company’s strategy to accelerate growth by building on the core strengths of PVH and connect Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER – each with high global brand awareness and deep loyalty – closer to the consumer than ever before through five key drivers:

  • Win with product – PVH will develop the best hero products in the market across key growth categories, with a focus on expanding in large and growing global demand spaces where the Company’s iconic brands resonate most with consumers.
  • Win with consumer engagement – By driving digital-first, 360-degree consumer engagement built around brand, hero products and key consumer moments, partnering with the best creators in the industry, and building out each brand’s ambassador program, Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger will meet consumers on their terms in new and engaging ways.
  • Win in the digitally-led marketplace – The consumer of today shops digitally first and expects seamless integration of their physical and digital experiences. PVH is accelerating digital growth by building a holistic distribution strategy for Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER, led by digital and direct-to-consumer channels, and supported by key wholesale partnerships.
  • Develop a demand- and data-driven operating model – PVH is developing a demand- and data-driven operating model, starting with a systematic and repeatable product creation model that puts the consumer first and leverages data to bring new and fresh products to market with speed and agility.
  • Drive efficiencies and invest in growth A key driver of the PVH+ Plan will be the relentless focus on driving efficiencies to become more cost-competitive and reinvest in key strategic growth drivers. PVH is simplifying how its teams work and identifying efficiencies to fuel initiatives with the greatest positive impact and strongest return.

These five foundational drivers apply to each of PVH’s businesses and are activated in the regions to reflect consumer differences and their unique expectations. Leveraging the full power of Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER, PVH is building on its market-leading strength in Europe, accelerating from strength in Asia Pacific, and unlocking the full potential of the strength of its brands in the Americas.

Zac Coughlin, Chief Financial Officer said: “Our new, multi-year strategic growth plan leverages the global strength of our brands and reflects the compelling opportunities we see across our channels and geographies. While investing to fully capitalize on the global, digital and DTC-focused potential of our plan, we will also drive efficiencies that together will accelerate earnings growth and deliver strong and sustainable shareholder returns.”
