adidas full-year results exceed latest expectations;
company decides not to write off most of its Yeezy inventory


adidas today published preliminary results for 2023. Based on preliminary unaudited numbers, adidas currency-neutral revenues were flat versus the prior year-level in 2023 (latest guidance: to decline at a low-single-digit rate) despite the drag from the devaluation of the Argentine Peso in the fourth quarter. In reported terms, sales were down 5% to € 21,427 million in 2023 (2022: € 22,511 million). Reported revenues include the negative translation impact of more than € 1,000 million from unfavorable currency movements, which are expected to remain a drag on the company’s top-line development in 2024.

The sales development in 2023 was impacted by significantly reduced sell-in to the wholesale channel as part of the company’s successful initiatives to reduce high inventory levels. In addition, the discontinuation of the Yeezy business had a negative effect on the top-line development during the year. This represented a drag of around € 500 million on the year-over-year comparison. The two Yeezy drops positively impacted net sales in an amount of around € 750 million in 2023. This compares to a total of more than € 1,200 million of Yeezy revenues in 2022. Excluding the Yeezy revenues in both years, currency-neutral revenues were up 2% in 2023.

Negative currency effects have also been significantly weighing on the company’s gross margin development throughout the year. Nevertheless, the adidas gross margin improved 0.2 percentage points to a level of 47.5% in 2023 (2022: 47.3%).

Despite the severe impact from the devaluation of the Argentine Peso at the end of the year, adidas generated an operating profit of € 268 million in 2023 (2022: € 669 million). According to its latest guidance the company was expecting an operating loss of € 100 million. The outperformance was driven by a better-than-expected operational business in Q4 and the company’s decision not to write off the vast majority of its existing Yeezy inventory. The latest outlook still included a potential write-off of its remaining Yeezy inventory in an amount of around € 300 million. Following the latest decision, the 2023 operating profit now only includes a low double-digit million amount of Yeezy-related inventory write-offs. Instead, the company plans to sell the remaining Yeezy product at least at cost in 2024.

The company’s underlying operating profit reached around € 200 million in 2023. This compares to the latest guidance of around € 100 million and reflects the operational outperformance in the fourth quarter. In its underlying operating profit adidas excludes the Yeezy profits generated in 2023 (around € 300 million) and adjusts its bottom-line for the one-off costs related to the strategic review the company conducted in 2023 (around € 200 million) as well as the Yeezy-related write-offs (low-double-digit million euro amount).

adidas also issued its financial guidance for the current year.

In 2024, the company expects currency-neutral sales to grow at a mid-single-digit rate. This top-line guidance assumes that adidas will sell the remaining Yeezy inventory at cost, which would result in sales of around € 250 million in 2024. Excluding the Yeezy revenues in both years, the top-line guidance reflects currency-neutral growth at a high-single-digit rate in the underlying adidas business.

As the sale of the remaining Yeezy inventory is currently assumed to occur at cost, the planned sale of the product is currently expected to have no effect on the company’s operating profit this year. Unfavorable currency effects are projected to weigh significantly on the company’s profitability in 2024 as they are expected to continue to impact both reported revenues and the gross margin development in 2024.

Taking all of this into account – the expected translational and transactional FX headwind as well as the current Yeezy assumptions – adidas expects to generate an operating profit of around € 500 million in 2024.
