PVH Making Progress Toward Its Goals Despite Some Near-Term Challenges
Business Strategy and Outlook
Once known as a producer of midtier men's shirts, PVH transformed itself by purchasing fashion brand Calvin Klein in 2003, Tommy Hilfiger in 2010, and Calvin Klein licensee Warnaco in 2013. More recently, it disposed of most of its noncore labels to focus on Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger. While the firm lacks diversification, we think it was prudent to focus on its highest-potential properties and returning capital to shareholders through share repurchases. However, although they are popular worldwide, we do not believe that either of PVH’s major brands has the pricing power or competitiveness to provide an economic moat.
