Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements
NOTE 1: SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Nature of Operations
Levi Strauss & Co. (the “Company”) is one of the world’s largest brand-name apparel companies. The Company designs, markets and sells – directly or through third parties and licensees – products that include jeans, casual and dress pants, activewear, tops, shorts, skirts, jackets and related accessories for men, women and children around the world under the Levi’s®, Levi Strauss Signature™, Denizen®, Dockers® and Beyond Yoga® brands.
In the fourth quarter of 2024 we announced we were undertaking an evaluation of strategic alternatives to the global Dockers® business, including a sale or other strategic transactions. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Dockers® business. The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions and closed on July 31, 2025 for the Dockers® intellectual property and operations in the U.S. and Canada, and is expected to close on or around January 31, 2026 for the remaining Dockers® operations. Dockers® net assets were classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. Additionally, the Company classified the Dockers® business as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of income for all periods presented. See Note 2 “Discontinued Operations”. The Dockers® business is a separate operating segment historically presented in our financial statements under the caption of Other Brands.
The Company operates its business according tothree reportable segments: Americas, Europe, and Asia, collectively comprising the Company's Levi's Brands business, which includes the Levi's®, Levi Strauss Signature™ and Denizen® brands. In the first quarter of 2024 the Company announced the strategic decision to discontinue the Denizen® brand with the wind down of operations substantially complete as of March 2, 2025. The Beyond Yoga® business, which is managed separately, does not meet the quantitative thresholds for reportable segments but is presented separately to increase transparency of performance.
Basis of Presentation and Principles of Consolidation
The interim consolidated financial statements of the Company and its wholly-owned and majority-owned foreign and domestic subsidiaries, including the notes, have been prepared in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”) applicable to interim period financial statements and do not include all of the information and disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments necessary for a fair statement of the financial position and the results of operations for the periods presented have been included. The unaudited consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements of the Company for the year ended December 1, 2024, included in the Company’s 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K.
The unaudited consolidated financial statements include the accounts of the Company and its subsidiaries. All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated. The results of operations for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the year ending November 30, 2025.
The Company’s fiscal year ends on the Sunday that is closest to November 30 of that year, although the fiscal years of certain foreign subsidiaries end on November 30. Each quarter of both fiscal years 2025 and 2024 consists of 13 weeks, with the exception of the fourth quarter of 2024, which consisted of 14 weeks. All references to years and quarters relate to fiscal years and quarters rather than calendar years and quarters.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and the related notes to the consolidated financial statements. Estimates are based upon historical factors, current circumstances and the experience and judgment of the Company’s management. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis and may employ outside experts to assist in its evaluations. Changes in such estimates, based on more accurate future information, or different assumptions or conditions, may affect amounts reported in future periods.
Distribution Center Conversion
On June 6, 2024, the Company entered into an agreement to replace certain of the Company’s legacy U.S. distribution centers with a new third party logistics center. The Company maintains certain rights over the warehouse, and warehouse equipment and technologies which resulted in an Operating lease right-of-use asset and lease liability of $30.6 million in “Operating lease right-of-use assets, net” and “Short-term Operating lease liabilities” and “Long-term Operating lease liabilities” balances and a Financing lease right-of-use asset and lease liability of $14.0 million in “Other non-current assets” and “Long-term employee related benefits and other liabilities” balances on the consolidated balance sheets during 2024. In the first quarter of 2025, the Company recorded an additional Financing lease right-of-use asset and lease liability of $61.6 million in “Other non-current assets” and “Long-term employee related benefits and other liabilities” balances on the consolidated balance sheets.
Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews its long-lived assets for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate the carrying amount of an asset may be impaired. Impairment losses are measured and recorded for the excess of carrying value over its fair value, estimated based on expected future cash flows and other quantitative and qualitative factors. Property, plant and equipment, net includes accumulated depreciation of $1.3 billion as of both August 31, 2025 and December 1, 2024.
In the third quarter of 2024, the Company recorded $11.1 million of asset impairment charges related to technology projects discontinued in connection with Project Fuel, which were recorded in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of income. The Company also recorded an impairment charge of $9.1 million related to the Beyond Yoga® customer relationship intangible assets, which is included in “Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges” in the Company’s consolidated statements of income. See Note 3 for additional information.
Supplier Finance Program
The Company offers a supplier financing program which enables the Company’s suppliers, at their sole discretion, to sell their receivables (i.e., the Company’s payment obligations to suppliers) to a financial institution on a non-recourse basis in order to be paid earlier than current payment terms provide.
The Company’s obligations to its suppliers, including amounts due and scheduled payment dates, are not impacted by the supplier’s participation in these arrangements. The Company’s payment terms to the financial institutions, including the timing and amount of payments, are based on the original supplier invoices. Our current payment terms with a majority of our suppliers are typically 90 days. The Company has not pledged any assets and does not provide guarantees under the supplier finance program. As such, the outstanding payment obligations under the Company’s supplier finance program are included within Accounts Payable in the Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The Company’s outstanding payment obligations under this program were $150.6 million as of August 31, 2025 and $152.2 million as of December 1, 2024.
Share Repurchases
During the first quarter of 2025, the Company repurchased 1.6 million shares for $30.0 million, plus broker’s commissions, in the open market. On August 1, 2025, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase transaction with a third-party financial institution to repurchase an aggregate of $120.0 million of the Company’s Class A common stock as part of its share repurchase program. At inception, the Company made an initial payment of $120.0 million and took delivery of approximately 5.0 million shares of Class A common stock, representing 80% of the dollar amount of the transaction, based on the August 1, 2025 closing share price, over the transaction's term (the "ASR Agreement"). The initial shares received, which had an aggregate cost of $96.0 million based on the August 1, 2025 closing share price, were retired and recorded as a reduction of Retained Earnings, with the remainder of $24.0 million recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. These purchases equate to an average repurchase price of approximately $19.05 per share for the nine months ended August 31, 2025. The total number of shares the Company will ultimately repurchase will be based on the volume-weighted average price per share of the Company's Class A common stock over the term of the ASR Agreement, less an agreed upon discount, and subject to customary adjustments pursuant to the terms and conditions of the ASR Agreement. Final settlement of the transactions under the ASR Agreement is expected to occur no later than the first quarter of 2026.
During the three and nine months ended August 25, 2024, the Company repurchased 1.0 million and 3.3 million shares for $17.8 million and $59.7 million, plus broker's commissions, respectively, in the open market. This equates to an average repurchase price of approximately $18.35 per share for the nine months ended August 25, 2024.
The Company accounts for share repurchases by charging the excess of the repurchase price over the repurchased Class A common stock’s par value entirely to retained earnings. All repurchased shares are retired and become authorized but unissued shares. The Company accrues for the shares purchased under the share repurchase plan based on the trade date. The Company may terminate or limit the share repurchase program at any time.
Assets Held for Sale and Discontinued Operations
Assets and liabilities of a business that meet the accounting requirements to be classified as held for sale are separated in a disposal group. Disposal group net assets are recorded at the lower of their carrying amount or estimated fair value less expected costs to sell. After being classified as held for sale, assets are not depreciated or amortized.
Assets and liabilities of a disposal group that meet the accounting requirements to be classified as discontinued operations are presented separately for all current and prior periods in the consolidated balance sheets. The results of discontinued operations are reported in income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes in the consolidated statements of income for the current and prior periods beginning in the period in which the business meets the held for sale criteria. Income (loss) from discontinued operations includes direct costs attributable to the business held for sale, and an estimate of costs from corporate functions dedicated to the business, but excludes corporate expenses composed of selling, general and administrative expenses not attributable to any of the operating segments. See Note 2 “Discontinued Operations”.
Unless otherwise indicated, the information in the notes to the consolidated financial statements refers only to the Company’s continuing operations.
Reclassification
Certain amounts on the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and statements of cash flows have been conformed to the August 31, 2025 presentation.
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
There have been no developments to recently issued accounting standards, including the expected dates of adoption and estimated effects on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and footnote disclosures, from those disclosed in the 2024 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-07, Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, on a retrospective basis in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending November 30, 2025. This new guidance is designed to improve reportable segment disclosure requirements, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses.
NOTE 2: DISCONTINUED OPERATIONS
In the fourth quarter of 2024 the Company announced it had initiated a formal review of strategic alternatives to the global Dockers® brand, which could include a sale or other strategic transactions. During the first quarter of 2025, the Company commenced a sale process of its Dockers® business and the Company determined that the Dockers® business met held for sale and discontinued operations accounting criteria. During the second quarter of 2025, the Company entered into a definitive agreement to sell its Dockers® business for an initial transaction value of $311 million, subject to customary adjustments and closing conditions, with the potential to reach up to $391 million through an $80 million earnout opportunity in future years based on the performance of the Dockers® business. On July 31, 2025 the Company sold the Dockers® intellectual property and operations in the U.S. and Canada for gross proceeds of $194.7 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $139.0 million, net of direct costs to sell. The sale of the remaining Dockers® operations is expected to close on or around January 31, 2026.
Under the terms of a transition services agreement, the Company will provide certain post-closing accounting, tax, digital technology and supply chain services for Dockers® operations in the U.S. and Canada for a transitional period generally ending on January 31, 2026. Fees earned under the transition services agreement are included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of income.

(1)Comprised of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit goodwill only.
(2)For the nine months ended August 25, 2024 the Company recorded a Beyond Yoga® goodwill noncash impairment charge of $36.3 million.
(3)For the nine months ended August 25, 2024 the Company recorded goodwill of $15.9 million in connection with the acquisition of all operating assets related to Levi’s® brands from Expofaro S.A.S, the Company’s former distributor in Colombia.
During the third quarter of 2025, as part of the Company’s annual review of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Company elected to perform a single step quantitative impairment test on the goodwill and indefinite lived trademark intangible assigned to the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit. The Company engaged third-party valuation specialists and used industry accepted valuation models and criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management. The Company assessed the fair value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit using the discounted cash flow method under the income approach, utilizing estimated cash flows and a terminal value, discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. The trademark fair value was determined using the relief-from-royalty method to utilize the discounted projected future cash flows. Although the fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and the indefinite lived trademark intangible exceeded their carrying values, the fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and the indefinite lived trademark intangible were less than 10% over their carrying values.
The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the reporting unit included revenue growth rates, profit margins, operating expenses, capital expenditures, terminal value and a discount rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the trademark intangible asset included revenue growth rates, a discount rate and a royalty rate. As our long-term strategies change, planned business performance expectations are not met over time, or specific valuation factors outside of our control, such as discount rates, change significantly, then the estimated fair values of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Beyond Yoga® indefinite-lived trademark intangible asset, or both might decline and lead to impairment charges in the future. Several factors could impact the Beyond Yoga® brand's ability to achieve expected future cash flows, including the success of retail store and international expansion, store and e-commerce productivity, the impact of promotional activity, continued economic volatility and potential operational challenges related to macroeconomic factors and other strategic initiatives to drive increased profitability.
During the third quarter of 2024, as part of the Company’s annual review of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit, the Company elected to perform a single step quantitative impairment test on the goodwill and indefinite lived trademark intangible assigned to the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit and performed impairment tests on the related customer relationship intangible assets. The Company engaged third-party valuation specialists and used industry accepted valuation models and criteria that were reviewed and approved by various levels of management. The Company assessed the fair value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit as of the test date, May 27, 2024, using the discounted cash flow method under the income approach, utilizing estimated cash flows and a terminal value, discounted at a rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the cash flows. As a result of this assessment, we concluded that the carrying value of the Beyond Yoga® reporting unit exceeded the estimated fair value by $36.3 million, which was recorded as a noncash impairment charge to goodwill.
Prior to the assessment of the reporting unit, we concluded that the carrying values of the trademark and customer relationship intangible assets exceeded their estimated fair values. The trademark fair value was determined using the relief-from-royalty method to utilize the discounted projected future cash flows. Based on this assessment, we recorded a $66.0 million noncash impairment charge related to the Beyond Yoga® trademark. The customer relationship intangible assets fair values were determined using the multi-period excess earnings and distributor methods under the income approach. Based on these assessments, we recorded a $9.1 million noncash impairment charge related to the customer relationship intangible assets.
The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the reporting unit included revenue growth rates, profit margins, operating expenses, capital expenditures, terminal value and a discount rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the fair value of the trademark intangible asset included revenue growth rates, a discount rate and a royalty rate. The significant assumptions used in the assessment of the customer relationship intangible assets included revenues from existing customers and discount rates.
Total impairment charges for the nine months ended August 25, 2024 were $111.4 million and were recorded within “Goodwill and other intangible asset impairment charges” on the accompanying consolidated statements of income. During 2024, the Company appointed new Beyond Yoga® executive management and implemented a new strategic plan for growth and expansion, resulting in an adverse impact on expected cash flows.
During the first quarter of 2024, the Company recognized $5.5 million in goodwill impairment charges related to the footwear business in its Europe segment as a result of the decision to discontinue the category in connection with Project Fuel.

As of August 31, 2025, the Company hadno borrowings under the Credit Facility. The Company’s unused availability under the Credit Facility was $743.1 million at August 31, 2025, as the total availability of $762.1 million was reduced by $19.0 million of letters of credit and other credit usage allocated under the Credit Facility.
Interest Rates on Borrowings
The Company’s weighted-average interest rate on average borrowings outstanding during the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025 was 4.43% and 4.32%, respectively, as compared to 3.97% and 3.98%, respectively, during the same periods of 2024.
Issuance of Senior Notes due 2030 and Redemption of Senior Notes due 2027
In July 2025, the Company issued €475.0 million in aggregate principal amount of 4.000% senior notes due 2030 (the “Senior Notes due 2030”) to qualified institutional buyers and to purchasers outside the U.S. The Company used the net proceeds of the Notes, together with cash on hand, to redeem all €475.0 million in aggregate principal amount of its outstanding 3.375% Senior Notes due 2027.
Principal, interest and maturity. The Senior Notes due 2030 will mature on August 15, 2030. Interest on the Senior Notes due 2030 is payable semi-annually in arrears on February 15 and August 15.
Ranking. The Senior Notes due 2030 are not guaranteed by any of the Company's subsidiaries and are unsecured obligations. Accordingly, they:
rank equal in right of payment with all of the Company's other existing and future unsecured and unsubordinated debt;
rank senior in right of payment to the Company's future debt and other obligations that are, by their terms, expressly subordinated in right of payment to the Senior Notes due 2030;
are effectively subordinated in right of payment to all of the Company's existing and future senior secured debt and other obligations (including the Credit Facility) to the extent of the value of the collateral securing such debt; and
are structurally subordinated to all obligations of each of the Company's subsidiaries.
Optional redemption. The Company may redeem some or all of the Senior Notes due 2030, at once or over time, at redemption prices specified in the indenture governing the Senior Notes due 2030 (the “2030 indenture”), plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of redemption.
Mandatory redemption, offer to purchase and open market purchases. The Company is not required to make any sinking fund payments with respect to the Senior Notes due 2030. However, under certain circumstances as described under “Change of control” below, the Company may be required to offer to purchase the Senior Notes due 2030. The Company may from time to time purchase the Senior Notes due 2030 in the open market or otherwise.
Covenants. The 2030 indenture contains covenants that limit, among other things, the Company’s ability to incur liens, enter into sale and leaseback transactions and merge or consolidate with another person. The 2030 indenture also limits the ability of the Company’s subsidiaries to incur additional debt, incur liens and enter into sale and leaseback transactions. The 2030 indenture provides for customary events of default (subject in certain cases to customary grace and cure periods), which include nonpayment, breach of covenants, payment defaults or acceleration of certain other indebtedness, a failure to pay certain judgments and certain events of bankruptcy and insolvency. Generally, if an event of default occurs, the trustee under the 2030 indenture or the holders of at least 25% in aggregate principal amount of the then outstanding Senior Notes due 2030 may declare all the Senior Notes due 2030 to be due and payable immediately. As of August 31, 2025, the Company was in compliance with these covenants.
Change of control. Upon the occurrence of a change of control triggering event (as defined in the 2030 indenture), each holder of the Senior Notes due 2030 may require the Company to repurchase all or a portion of the Senior Notes due 2030 in cash at a price equal to 101% of the principal amount of the Senior Notes due 2030 to be repurchased, plus accrued and unpaid interest, if any, to the date of purchase.

In the first quarter of 2024, the Company’s Board of Directors (the "Board") approved a multi-year global productivity initiative, “Project Fuel”, designed to accelerate the execution of our Brand Led and DTC First strategies while fueling long-term profitable growth. The first phase of the global productivity initiative was completed primarily in the first half of 2024. Thetwo-year initiative is expected to continue through the end of 2025.

For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025, the Company recognized restructuring charges of $8.6 million and $22.1 million, respectively, in connection with Project Fuel, consisting primarily of severance and other post-employment benefits, based on separation benefits provided by Company policy or statutory benefit plans as well as contract termination costs and asset impairments partially offset by a gain on the sale of a previously closed distribution center. These charges were recorded in “Restructuring charges, net” in the consolidated statements of income. As of August 31, 2025, the restructuring liability was $81.7 million, with $64.7 million and $17.0 million classified as “Other accrued liabilities” and “Long-term employee related benefits and other liabilities”, respectively, within the Company’s consolidated balance sheet.

NOTE 9: COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Forward Foreign Exchange Contracts
The Company uses over-the-counter derivative instruments to manage its exposure to foreign currencies. The Company is exposed to credit loss in the event of nonperformance by the counterparties to the forward foreign exchange contracts. However, the Company believes that its exposures are appropriately diversified across counterparties and that these counterparties are creditworthy financial institutions. See Note 5 for additional information.
Other Contingencies
Litigation. In the ordinary course of business, the Company has various claims, complaints and pending cases, including contractual matters, facility and employee-related matters, distribution matters, product liability matters, intellectual property matters, bankruptcy preference matters, and tax and administrative matters. The Company establishes loss provisions for these ordinary course claims as well as other matters in which losses are probable and can be reasonably estimated. The Company does not believe any of these pending claims, complaints and legal proceedings will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.
Customs Duty Audits. The Company imports both raw materials and finished garments into all of its geographic regions and, as such, is subject to numerous countries’ complex customs laws and regulations with respect to its import and export activity.

(1)Gains on forward foreign exchange contracts primarily result from currency fluctuations relative to negotiated contract rates. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025, gains were primarily due to currency fluctuations relative to negotiated contract rates on positions to buy the Euro.
(2)Foreign currency transaction gains and losses reflect the impact of currency fluctuations on the Company's foreign currency denominated balances. For the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025, losses were primarily due to the impact of U.S. dollar weakening against the Euro.
NOTE 14: INCOME TAXES
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 21.9% for the three months ended August 31, 2025, compared to (1.9)% for the same prior-year period. The increase in the effective tax rate in the current quarter is primarily due to lower earnings before tax in the prior year.
The Company’s effective income tax rate was 21.5% for the nine months ended August 31, 2025, compared to (39.3)% for the same prior-year period. The increase in the effective tax rate is primarily due to lower earnings before tax in the prior year, and a $10.1 million tax benefit related to favorable resolutions of state audits.
The Organization for Economic Cooperation and Development reached agreement among over 140 countries to implement a minimum 15% tax rate on certain multinational enterprises, commonly referred to as Pillar Two. Many countries continue to announce changes in their tax laws and regulations based on the Pillar Two framework. The Company determined that Pillar Two did not have a material impact to our tax provision for the three and nine months ended August 31, 2025. We will continue to evaluate the impact of legislative changes as additional guidance becomes available.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (“OBBBA”) was enacted in the U.S. The OBBBA includes significant provisions, such as the permanent extension of certain expiring provisions of the Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, modifications to the international tax framework and the restoration of favorable tax treatment for certain business provisions. The legislation has multiple effective dates, with certain provisions effective in 2025 and others implemented through 2027. The Company has evaluated the OBBBA enacted during the quarter and estimated its impact on the consolidated financial statements to be immaterial. We will continue to evaluate the full impact of these legislative changes as additional guidance becomes available.
