Greetings. Welcome to Kontoor Brands’ third quarter 2019 earnings conference call. At this time, all participants will be in listen-only mode. A brief question and answer session will follow the formal presentation. If anyone today should require operator assistance during the conference, please press star, zero from your telephone keypad.

Please note this conference is being recorded. At this time, I’ll turn the conference over to Eric Tracy, Senior Director of Investor Relations. Mr. Tracy, you may begin..

Good morning everyone and welcome to Kontoor Brands third quarter 2019 earnings conference call. Participants on today’s call will make forward-looking statements. These statements are based on current expectations and are subject to uncertainties that could cause actual results to materially differ.

These uncertainties are detailed in documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission. We urge you to read our defined risk factors, cautionary language and other disclosures contained in those reports.

Unless otherwise stated, amounts referred to on today’s call will be on an adjusted dollar basis, which we clearly define in the news release that was issued this morning.

Adjusted amounts exclude the impact of restructuring and separation costs, changes in our business model, non-cash impairment charge related to our Rock & Republic trademark, and other adjustments.

A reconciliation to the GAAP measures to adjusted amounts can be found in the supplemental financial tables included in today’s news release, which is available on our website at kontoorbrands.com. These tables identify and quantify excluded items and provide management’s view of why this information is useful to investors.

Unless otherwise noted, amounts referred to on this call will be on a constant currency basis, which excludes the translation impact to changes in foreign currency exchange rates.

Constant currency amounts are intended to help investors better understand the underlying operational performance of our business, excluding the impacts of shifts in currency exchange rates over the period. Joining me on today’s call are Kontoor Brands President and Chief Executive Officer, Scott Baxter, and Chief Financial Officer Rustin Welton.

Following our prepared remarks, we will open the call for your questions. We anticipate the call will last about one hour. With that, I turn it over to CEO Scott Baxter..

category, channel and geographic expansion. It reflects on the changing faces of the Wrangler and Lee brands around the globe. It’s a differentiator for us.

The global retail landscape is dynamic and we have much work to do, but we’re confident that we will not only deliver on our near term commitments but also develop a long-term operational model that rewards our shareholders, customers, and our employees. With that, I turn it over to Rustin..

first, planned exits and business model changes represented about four points of the decline; second, our proactive actions in India drove about three points of the decline; and third, shifts in timing of shipments in Europe, which we discussed last quarter, favorably impacted third quarter revenue by two points.

Excluding these factors, our international business would have been down 2% or up 1% excluding the impact of foreign currency. Our international operations remain an area of great focus.

We’re investing behind people, infrastructure, and global demand creation platforms, and we’re very encouraged by how our new leadership teams across Europe and Asia were able to effect change so quickly, as evidenced by our improving third quarter results across the international business.

That said, work remains to establish the foundation on which to grow, including choosing the healthiest markets in which to operate, scaling innovation that was previously confined to limited geographic regions, and investing behind global demand creation platforms that support our growth efforts.

We are clearly under-indexed in our international businesses, representing only about a quarter of total revenues. We can now get after this in a meaningful way, and we are doing just that. As Scott mentioned, China remains a key area of focus in our international expansion strategy.

Lee continues to maintain a strong leading position in China with substantial expansion opportunities in both incremental retail distribution as well as further development of the digital platform. We are very encouraged by Lee’s third quarter results in China, growing 8% constant currency including a 10% brick and mortar comp.

We remain very confident in the long term accretive opportunities this region affords our international expansion story. We will continue to assess economic conditions in all other markets using our focused TSR lens to help determine where we choose to invest. Turning to our channels, revenue in our U.S.

wholesale channel, which represented 60% of our revenues in the quarter, was down 6%. A U.S. customer bankruptcy, the exit of less profitable points of distribution, and quality of sales initiatives contributed to this decline. U.S.

digital wholesale increased 27% in the third quarter, a reflection of longstanding partnerships with leading digital wholesale platforms and the investments we’ve made into this important area. Due primarily to proactive strategic actions mentioned before, our non-U.S.

wholesale channel, which represented 25% of our revenues in the quarter, was down 8% or down 5% in constant currency. Our branded direct to consumer channel, which represented 10% of our revenues in the quarter, was flat or up 1% in constant currency. Broad-based strength in Asia as well as U.S.

and European digital was offset by weakness in European brick and mortar operations due in part to select store closures. Our U.S.-owned digital business was up 16% in the quarter. We are seeing positive results from our investments in the U.S. platform, an area that has been prioritized.

We will apply these learnings to further enhance our digital platforms globally. The implementation of our global ERP system will be a significant enabler in developing our digital ecosystem. Given the accretive under-indexed nature of this channel, we will continue to distort investments to grow in this area. Now let’s turn to our brands.

Global revenue of our Wrangler brand declined 6% or 5% in constant currency. Wrangler U.S. revenue declined 4% driven by the previously mentioned customer bankruptcy, reduced sales of lower margin lines of business, and quality of sales initiatives. The U.S. business is flat year to date.

Wrangler international revenue was down 11% and 8% constant currency, driven by the actions taken in India, a market exit and business model changes in Europe, and training shifts in Europe. We expect Wrangler global sales to improve in the fourth quarter of the year driven primarily by improvement in our U.S. business.

Lee brand global revenue declined 7% or 6% in constant currency. Lee U.S. revenue decreased 9%, negatively impacted from the previously mentioned customer bankruptcy and reduced sales of lower margin lines of business. Excluding the bankruptcy, the U.S. business would have been down 3% in the second quarter and up 2% year-to-date.

Due to continued reduction of sales of lower margin lines of business, we anticipate Lee’s U.S. results will moderate in the fourth quarter of 2019. Lee international revenue was down 6% or 2% constant currency, primarily driven by a market exit and business model changes in Europe and actions taken in India.

As we mentioned on our second quarter call, we have recently made changes in our China digital commerce platform, it’s staffing and our strategies. We are encouraged by how these adjustments have been able to positively impact near term results, including digital growth in China of more than 40% in the quarter.

We are well positioned with the Lee brand in China with significant growth opportunities, both in further penetrating existing regions while also expanding further into lower tier cities. Now onto gross margin.

Total adjusted gross margin increased approximately 20 basis points to 40.9%, due primarily to the impacts of quality of sales initiatives, restructuring, and favorable channel mix, which more than offset the negative impact of strategic actions taken in India as well as pressure from foreign currency.

As we’ve previously mentioned, the customer bankruptcy and related capacity adjustments have caused near term manufacturing inefficiencies as we move through elevated inventory levels.

As the capacity adjustments are fully achieved and we’ve cleared additional distressed goods, gross margins have improved, and we expect great progress in inventory which is expected to be at our below prior year levels by year end, or an approximate $75 million reduction from the third to fourth quarter.

As anticipated, we’ve seen year-over-year comparison improvements in gross margin in each of the past three quarters. While favorable mix from restructuring and strategic quality of sales actions will benefit gross margin, unfavorable mix in India will temper underlying strength during the fourth quarter.

Longer term, structurally accretive mix shifts to higher margin channels, such as digital and international, will fuel further gross margin expansion. Adjusted SG&A as a percent of sales increased 80 basis points to 27.9%.

The year-over-year increase was driven primarily by higher demand creation, higher bad debt expense in India, and fixed cost deleverage due to revenue declines. These increases were partially offset by tight expense control and restructuring benefits.

We also recorded a non-cash $33 million impairment charge related to our intangible asset trademark of the Rock & Republic brand during the quarter, based primarily on anticipated revenue reductions given changes to the composition of our distribution going forward.

Adjusted operating profit was $83 million or 13% of sales, down 11% from the year prior. Adjusted EBITDA was $90 million or 14.1% of sales compared with $100 million in the third quarter of 2018. As mentioned previously, the actions we took in India drove an approximate $8 million adjusted EBITDA impact in the quarter.

Net interest expense was approximately $15 million and our adjusted effective tax rate was 19.9% due in part to the Rock & Republic impairment. We delivered adjusted earnings per share of $0.95 in the third quarter. The actions we took in India drove an approximate $0.09 unfavorable impact in the quarter.

Now turning to our balance sheet, inventories as expected were slightly elevated as we ended the quarter, up 1% compared with the same period last year, primarily due to inventory built in anticipation of the plant’s close. The second quarter year-on-year comp was an increase of 9%, so we’re making progress here.

Again, we are on track to achieving our expectation that at year-end, inventory levels should be relatively flat to below prior year. Next, cash flow. Significant free cash flow generation supports our robust capital allocation strategy, which is focused for the next 12 to 18 months on paying our superior dividend and deleveraging our balance sheet.

During the third quarter, we paid our first quarterly cash dividend of $0.56 per share. Now onto our outlook.

As discussed earlier, the actions we took in India drove an estimated $8 million negative impact to adjusted EBITDA in the third quarter, and we are expecting a similar impact in the fourth quarter for a total second half impact of $16 million.

Based upon the magnitude of these actions, we have sharpened our full year adjusted EBITDA outlook to be in the lower half of our previously announced range of $340 million to $360 million. Revenue expectations are unchanged and should exceed $2.5 billion, reflecting a mid-single digit decline compared with full year 2018 adjusted revenue.

The benefits of actions taken to improve revenues in the second half of the year and beyond are beginning to be realized. The fourth quarter will also be less impacted by the fourth quarter 2018 customer bankruptcy comparison.

Capital expenditures are unchanged and expected to range between $55 million and $65 million, including approximately $30 million to $40 million to support the design and implementation of the ERP system.

Other full year assumptions are unchanged and include an effective tax rate of approximately 24%, and interest expense should be approximately $40 million in 2019, or $60 million on an annualized basis. Before we move onto Q&A, I offer this summary of our message today.

First, our restructuring and cost savings initiatives are on track and the benefits are beginning to be realized, as evidenced by steady gross margin improvements during the past three quarters.

Second, as we’ve stated since our spin, our first 12 to 18 months will be focused on setting the foundation for healthy, sustainable, long-term growth, including the implementation of quality of sales initiatives.

Finally, while our operating model is evolving, strong cash flow generation is visible, supporting our robust capital allocation strategy that is focused on paying a best-in-class superior dividend and aggressively de-levering the balance sheet. With that, it’s time to turn the call back to the Operator for the question and answer discussion.

Operator?.

[Operator instructions] The first question today is coming from the line of Bob Drbul with Guggenheim Securities. Please proceed with your questions. .

Hey guys, good morning.

The first question that I have is Wrangler U.S., can you just talk a little bit about what you’re seeing in terms of your anticipation for the brand to improve in the fourth quarter, maybe just a little more color on the performance there?.

Yes, hey Bob, it’s Scott. How are you? Thanks for joining us today. .

Hi Scott..

I’ll go ahead and kick that off. You know, Bob, we’re really encouraged we’re going to work through this large customer bankruptcy, which will really mitigate itself in the fourth quarter, which will be very helpful. In addition to that, we’ve got some really good, exciting new product in the pipeline.

We have this--I mentioned it in my script, the all terrain gear, the ATG, which has gained broader distribution and is checking really well. We’re thrilled with our new campaign.

Our campaigns from the past have been kind of focused on specific channels, but we’ve opened up the lens on this campaign and we’re talking to a broader range of consumers, which has been really important, so we’ve gotten what I would call very positive feedback from our partners and consumers around the globe, so real happy about that.

But then I think about how proud I am of the team with some of the partners and the co-labs that we’re doing. We have some really exceptional people that want to partner with us. I talked about Fred Segal, I talked about Nordstrom. I think it just really shows how the brand is gaining significant heat.

Those are some really good things, but I will tell you, Bob, the single most important thing which we have not dimensionalized or talked a lot about but I think it’s really important that I bring this up here today, is the Wrangler brand is under-distributed. It has been under-distributed for a long time.

It played a very specific role in our past ownership and that was important, and it did exactly what it needed to do; but now as we look at this business and I look at what we need to do with that brand in the U.S.

and globally, and for instance we both know that it’s not even in China, we’ve got an opportunity to go ahead and pick and choose really high quality wholesale partners going forward, and I want you and everyone to know that our team is doing that work right now.

I think we’re very advantaged because even though we have been under-distributed, we now have a chance and the choice to make really good decisions for our brand going forward, and we have walked and talked the line about high quality.

This is a great global brand that belongs in the discussion with the world’s greatest brands, and we are going to do that going forward, and that work is being done by our Wrangler team right now, so more to come on that, Bob, in the future. .

Got it, thanks Scott. On India, can you just give us a little bit more color on the distribution exits you made in India, Q3 to Q4? Maybe elaborate a little bit more exactly what the factors were and partners were, etc., the doors. Thanks..

Yes, you know what, Bob? I’ll start and then Rustin will pick it up from there.

Before we jump into India, I just want to remind everyone that as we’ve talked about horizon one and we’ve spent a lot of time outlining our horizon one and horizon two initiatives, and one of the things that I want all of our investors and shareholders to know, that we’re very serious about our playbook and that we are really doing a good job as a team as far as making sure that we are playing and doing what we said we would do with our outside community, and making sure that we’re hitting those milestones.

One of the important things is we said we would make sure we were high quality company with high quality sales, so we have a new team there, really thrilled with our new Asian leadership team, and in conjunction with our leadership team here at headquarters made the decision that that’s a channel that’s just not representative of where we want the Wrangler brand to be long term, and I’m proud of the courage that the team made to go ahead and walk the talk there.

So we made the decision to exit and it is going to impact our Q3 results, as Rustin outlined in his script, and it’s also going to impact our Q4 results, but once we get past that the Wrangler brand has a chance to thrive and grow in the India marketplace in the right channels.

I’m going to let Rustin go ahead and dimensionalize a few points for you, but thanks again, Bob, nice to hear from you..

Yes, good morning Bob. Just to add onto Scott’s comments, as you’ll recall, we’ve seen some demonetization impact affecting the broader market, and we’ve cited that for the past several quarters. As we were projecting our outlook for the year, we certainly were taking into consideration the softness that we had seen in that market.

To Scott’s point, we’re seeing it in a couple of select channels. It is not in all channels within India - we actually have some very robust channels in India as well, but we started to take a fresh look at the points of distribution and there were two channels, again, that were particularly challenged.

They tend to be smaller retail operations, Bob, and so we took action to amplify our quality of sales there. That’s the right decision for the long term profitability in that market, which we see great potential for.

Despite taking those actions, it certainly creates a short term headwind for us, but we’re still delivering within the range of EBITDA that we had previously discussed in spite of these actions, so optimizing the foundation, as Scott talked about, is critically important for our long term success, and you’ll see that bear through in the profitability in the future.

.

Thank you. Our next question comes from the line of Erin Murphy with Piper Jaffray. Please proceed with your question. .

Thanks, good morning. I guess I had a follow-up on Bob’s question, just to clarify on India--on the pressure, I should say.

Why would this not continue into the beginning of 2020? Are you syncing with another distributor as you reposition in the market? I’m trying to understand just the magnitude that’s hitting in the third and fourth quarter, and is it something that disappears in the beginning of next year as you reposition in the market? I’m just trying to understand the math for the next four quarters..

Yes Eric, it’s Rustin - good morning. I’ll go ahead and start and if Scott wants to add anything, he’s certainly welcome to here. We looked at these particular retailers again in some of these channels, and some of them are more challenged than others, so in the third quarter we made some decisions to exit some of those.

We’re continuing to look at some of those retailers and anticipate some decisions in the fourth quarter as well, which is why we cited that we would see some pressure in the fourth quarter.

But we’re very interested in moving quickly through this and getting this behind us, so as we think about 2020, obviously I’m not going to provide specific guidance as it relates to India, but we’re confident that we will see improved profitability in 2020 by putting these decisions behind us quickly..

I think Rustin captured that well..

Okay. Are you signing up with a new distributor to reposition in maybe a more elevated way in the country? Just trying to understand because you cited, I think Scott, that you were very confident in the region longer term..

Yes, so Erin, I think about a couple of things there as it relates to the market. I mean, a lot of these points of distribution that we’re exiting are very small retailers.

It’s a very fragmented market, we have lots of points of distribution within India, so we’re taking a look at those and making sure that we’re only remaining in those healthy ones that we see long term potential with. In terms of the market, we’re also looking at the digital side because we see great opportunity.

We’ve seen nice growth on the digital piece and, similar to what we’re doing globally, we’re going to invest behind the digital opportunities that are within India. .

Got it, okay. That dovetails well with my second question, just broadly on direct to consumer digital, I think was up 21% in the third quarter.

Can you just share a little bit more about the platforms that are driving this, and then I guess the second part as it relates to direct to consumer, I know it’s not necessarily a strategic piece of your business, but can you share what you saw in the quarter in outlets just in terms of traffic and conversion here in North America? Thank you..

Maybe I’ll start with the digital and then I’ll let Scott speak a little bit to the brick and mortar and the outlet side of the business and what we’re seeing, Erin.

From a digital perspective, we’re particularly happy because it is really broad-based growth that we’ve seen, so it’s in the U.S., it’s in Europe, and clearly we spoke about the China performance was up over 40%, but really solid growth across the board, and again that’s where we’re emphasizing our direct to consumer focus is on digital.

We just think that’s the most capital efficient way to reach that consumer, and that’s where our focus is as we think about D2C. With that, I’ll turn it over to Scott and maybe some comments on outlet..

Yes Erin, as you are aware and you know, it’s a very small part of our business. It has been for a long time, a good part of our business but a small part of our business.

We’re continuing to assess our footprint as we go forward in that business, and I think the key point here, and we talked about it in both our scripts, is we’re distorting our investment to a digital standpoint.

We just believe that there’s bigger and better opportunities, much more accretive, and we’ve got a nice flywheel going there and our investments are paying off. Thank you, Erin..

Our next question is coming from the line of Sam Poser with Susquehanna. Please proceed with your question. .

Good morning, I have a few. Thank you for taking my questions. I guess number one, you talked about the Wrangler business in the U.S. and you talked about a retailer closure plus the bankruptcy.

If you net-net everything, like the bankruptcy plus whoever this closure was, and then add the new customers in, how do we think about the foundation of the Wrangler U.S.

business right now?.

Yes, so maybe I’ll make some opening comments, Sam, and then I’ll let Scott weigh in on the future of the business here. As we think about Wrangler and the actions that took place in the quarter, we were in the U.S. down about 4%, again as we indicated on the prepared remarks. Approximately half of that was due to the bankruptcy.

We also took the opportunity, as we’re doing whether it be India or any market around the world, to really take a look at making sure that we have the right emphasis on quality of sales, so to your point, we did exit a particular retailer and a couple of special made programs that were not strategic for us moving forward.

We’re going to continue to do that, whether that’s the Wrangler U.S. business or Lee, and make sure that we’re setting that solid foundation moving forward. With that, maybe turn it over to Scott about where he sees the opportunity for the Wrangler business domestically. .

Yes Sam, I’m really pleased with where we’re positioning ourselves with Wrangler.

I talked about it before, Wrangler is one of the great apparel/brands in the world, and the way that we’re positioning the business going forward and the opening points of distribution that we can gain and all the folks that we’ve partnered with, we’re becoming a really significant lifestyle brand that is creating incredible heat, and also expanding our distribution.

A great example of that is you win with product, right, so we rolled out our all-terrain gear last year. It did really well, checked really well with the big wholesaler that we rolled it out with, and it’s gained new points of distribution for us outside of what you would classify as traditional Wrangler channels of distribution.

So you couple that with a really smart, intelligent advertising campaign that’s capturing new consumers, and we think those two together and as we think about cleaning up some things that we need to clean up, which happens in a spinoff, it’s just typical of how it works, we’re putting ourselves in a really nice position going forward..

Let me just follow up there. If you think about--well first of all, are you seeing a trend in western coming? Number two, did you get benefit from Lil Nas’ song about Wrangler? Then I have another question about India and the question of when are you going to start guiding EPS instead of EBITDA..

All right, so Sam, why don’t I start with western. Yes, we do really like where the western trend is heading. Obviously everybody knows that’s where our brand history his, but our team has done a really nice job of opening up that lens from using our brand history in a really positive way.

What’s happening right now in western is fairly simple but also really good - the retailers in the western space are very healthy.

Not only that, you’ve got a healthy, resilient western consumer, so you couple those two things together and you’ve got really nice traffic, you’ve got people buying high AURs, and then you’ve got this Americana, both apparel and music, on trend in that category, so that all plays into it.

Then what our team has done, our team--again, I go back to the design team that we have in Wrangler, the sales team that we have in Wrangler, and placing our retro into this western moment. This retro product that we’ve come out with for both men and women has done exceptionally well, but here’s the key from a retro standpoint.

It’s done really well both in metro and traditional western markets, Sam, and that tells us that, one, it’s strong, and it also tells us that, two, the brand is getting noticed more than it has before. .

Sam, I’ll take your second question as it relates to guiding on EPS. Clearly when we did the spin, as you will recall, even our first meeting back in April, there were a lot of things that were unknowns at that point, including frankly even the share count and distribution ratios that would take place at the spin.

That’s why we guided on EBITDA here in 2019. We will be providing more specific guidance for the 2020 period on our Q4 earnings call..

Thank you, Sam..

Our next question is coming from the line of Jim Duffy with Stifel. Please proceed with your question..

Thank you, good morning. First question is on the gross margin - encouraging to see the progress there, I presume a reflection of improved quality of sales.

Can you guys just comment on your confidence and opportunities for further gross margin improvement as we look into 2020?.

Yes, thanks Jim, it’s Rustin. I’ll start there and take that one. We’re proud to see three consecutive quarters of sequential improvement here from a gross margin perspective in terms of year-on-year comparisons. Our gross margin in the first quarter was 260 basis points below the adjusted 2018 number.

Second quarter, we were 110 basis points below but we improved 150 basis points from the first quarter, and then obviously this quarter you saw us inflect positive versus prior year at 20 basis points, and that’s really a 90 basis point improvement from the second quarter, so we’re pleased with the ongoing progress here.

We believe that this is a significant opportunity for us to recapture gross margin, and that’s why we’re really focused on some of the restructuring and cost savings initiatives, and then longer term, as we’ve talked a little bit about, we really like being able to get those structural benefits as we start to grow and distort growth in those accretive categories, like digital and like international, that will provide that structural framework for us to expand gross margins over time..

Great. Then next question, can you give more details on the discontinuation of the Rock & Republic license? I’m hoping you can talk about the run rate impact of that..

Yes, it’s Rustin again. I’ll go ahead and take that. With Rock & Republic, as you know we’ve had an exclusive domestic wholesale distribution and licensing agreement. During the quarter, we determined that that would not continue in 2020, which created a triggering event and a non-cash impairment charge in the quarter that you saw.

As we think about the Rock & Republic brand, it’s a fantastic brand that has considerable equity with both genders, and this really creates an opportunity for us to really broaden the distribution and reach on the brand, both domestically and internationally, so we’re excited about that opportunity.

Just for perspective in terms of dimensionalizing the impact, Rock & Republic is less than 1% of our global revenue and EBITDA today, so it’s a very small piece of our business..

Thank you, Jim..

Thank you. We have time for one additional question today, which will be coming from the line of Alexandra Walvis for Goldman Sachs. Please proceed with your question..

Hi there, thanks so much for taking the question. This is Brooke Roach on for Alex. My question is on cost saving initiatives and in particular your own manufacturing footprint. Could you help us frame the right-sizing of your manufacturing footprint in the context of the additional quality of sales initiatives that you have, both in the U.S.

and globally? Is your manufacturing base now optimized for the business you expect to have post-these initiatives? Thank you..

Yes Brooke, it’s Rustin, good morning. Thanks for joining us. I’ll go ahead and take that one.

As we think about the restructuring activities that took place, we did announce three plant closures in Mexico in June that took place, and as you may recall, at the time over 50% of the production that was taking place in those facilities was going away as part of the spin, so that really is what drove that action in those particular facilities and allowed us to right-size capacity in light of the customer bankruptcy as well that took place in the U.S.

As we think about moving forward and the right footprint associated with manufacturing, I would tell you that we’re constantly looking at that.

We perform make-versus-buy analysis on each product that we produce and determine the optimal location, whether that be sourced or manufactured in our own manufacturing facilities, so we’re constantly looking at that impact.

In terms of your question about dimensionalizing that impact on margin, I would say that the combination of the restructuring, quality of sales, and some of the favorable mix that we saw probably drove close to a 50 basis point improvement in margins in the third quarter, and then you had some headwinds there as it related to India and FX, that I talked about a little bit on the call..

In closing, thanks for joining us this morning. As a wrap-up, today we reaffirmed a few key points that you’ve heard from us since day one.

We’re making great progress and we will deliver on our Year 1 financial commitments, we’re sharply focused on a TSR approach to business, we will drive improving margins and sustainable long term growth, we will maintain a strong dividend policy supported by a healthy balance sheet, strong cash flow generation, and thoughtful deployment of cash, and we have meaningful category, channel and geographic growth opportunities prioritizing our investments through the lens of our TSR model.

With that, we look forward to our fourth quarter call and reporting on the progress we’ve made at Kontoor Brands. Thanks..

Thank you. This concludes today’s conference. You may disconnect your lines at this time. We thank you for your participation..
