LEVI STRAUSS & CO

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, dresses, jackets, and related accessories, for men, women and children around the world under the Levi’s®, Levi Strauss Signature™ 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. On July 31, 2025 the Company sold the Dockers® intellectual property and operations in the U.S. and Canada. The Company sold the remaining Dockers® operations in multiple closings during the first quarter of 2026, with the final closing on February 27, 2026. 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® and Levi Strauss Signature™ brands. 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 November 30, 2025, included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended November 30, 2025 (“2025 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 months ended March 1, 2026 may not be indicative of the results to be expected for any other interim period or the year ending November 29, 2026.

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 2026 and 2025 consists of 13 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.

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 $1.4 billion as of both March 1, 2026 and November 30, 2025.

Prepaid Expenses

Prepaid expenses were $156.1 million and $138.0 million as of March 1, 2026 and November 30, 2025, respectively.

Share Repurchases

On January 30, 2026, the Company entered into an accelerated share repurchase transaction with a third-party financial institution (“the ASR Agreement”) to repurchase an aggregate of $200.0 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 $200.0 million and received and immediately retired 7.8 million shares of its Class A common stock, representing 80% of the dollar amount of the transaction based on the January 29, 2026 closing share price. The initial shares received, which had an aggregate cost of $160.0 million, were retired and recorded as a reduction of Retained Earnings, with the remainder of $40.0 million recorded as a reduction of additional paid-in capital. 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 third quarter of 2026.

During the three months ended March 2, 2025, the Company repurchased 1.6 million for $30.0 million, plus broker's commissions, in the open market. This equates to an average repurchase price of approximately $18.45 per share for the three months ended March 2, 2025.

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 “Net 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. Net 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.

Revenue Recognition

Effective in the first quarter of 2026, the Company revised its operating policies and procedures for e-commerce transactions. This change results in revenue being recognized upon shipment rather than upon delivery to the customer, in line with the timing of the transfer of control. The impact of the change was not material to the current period consolidated financial statements.

Reclassification

Certain amounts on the consolidated balance sheets, consolidated statements of income and statements of cash flows have been conformed to the March 1, 2026 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 2025 Annual Report on Form 10-K. The Company will adopt ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ending November 29, 2026. This new guidance is designed to enhance the transparency and decision usefulness of income tax disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures related to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid. The Company is currently assessing the impact that adopting this new accounting standard will have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

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 Company sold the remaining Dockers® operations in multiple closings during the first quarter of 2026, with the final closing on February 27, 2026, for gross proceeds of $96.3 million, resulting in a gain on sale of $20.5 million, net of direct costs to sell.

Under the terms of a transition services agreement, the Company provided certain post-closing accounting, tax, digital technology and supply chain services for Dockers® operations in the U.S. and Canada for a transitional period ending in the first quarter of 2026. Fees earned under the transition services agreement were included in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” in the consolidated statements of income.

The following table reconciles the gross proceeds with the gain on sale of the remaining Dockers® operations included in “Net income (loss) from discontinued operations, net of taxes”.

Prior to the sale of Dockers operations in the first quarter of 2026, Dockers® net assets were classified as held for sale in the consolidated balance sheets for all periods presented. The Dockers® net assets were classified as current and non-current. Additionally, the Company classified the Dockers® business as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of income for all periods presented.

The following table presents the assets and liabilities held for sale:

The following table presents the results of discontinued operations:

Cash flows related to discontinued operations are included in the consolidated statements of cash flows. The gain on sale of Dockers® remaining operations of $35.1 million, prior to costs to sell, was an adjustment to reconcile net income to net cash provided by operating activities and the proceeds from sale of $96.3 million were included in cash flows from investing activities. There were no other significant operating noncash items or investing activities cash flows from discontinued operations during the three months ended March 1, 2026 and March 2, 2025.

NOTE 3: FAIR VALUE OF FINANCIAL INSTRUMENTS

The following table presents the Company’s financial instruments that are carried at fair value:

(1)Fair values estimated using Level 1 inputs are inputs which consist of quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Company has the ability to access at the measurement date. Rabbi trust assets consist of marketable securities.

(2)Fair values estimated using Level 2 inputs are inputs, other than quoted prices, that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly, and include among other things, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in markets that are active or inactive as well as inputs other than quoted prices that are observable. Short-term investments in marketable securities consist of fixed income securities. For forward foreign exchange contracts, inputs include foreign currency exchange and interest rates and, where applicable, credit default swap prices.

(3)The Company’s cash flow hedges are subject to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements. These agreements permit the net settlement of these contracts on a per-institution basis. Refer to Note 4 for more information.

The following table presents the carrying value, including related accrued interest, and estimated fair value of the Company’s financial instruments that are carried at adjusted historical cost:

(1)Fair values are estimated using Level 2 inputs and incorporate mid-market price quotes. Level 2 inputs are inputs other than quoted prices, that are observable for the liability, either directly or indirectly and include among other things, quoted prices for similar liabilities in markets that are active or inactive as well as inputs other than quoted prices that are observable.

NOTE 4: DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGING ACTIVITIES

As of March 1, 2026, the Company had forward foreign exchange contracts derivatives to buy $497.1 million and to sell $426.6 million in various foreign currencies. These contracts are at various exchange rates and expire at various dates through February 2027.

The table below provides data about the carrying values of derivative instruments and non-derivative instruments:

(1)Included in “Other current assets” or “Other non-current assets” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

(2)Included in “Other accrued liabilities” or “Other long-term liabilities” on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets.

The Company’s over-the-counter forward foreign exchange contracts are subject to International Swaps and Derivatives Association, Inc. master agreements. These agreements permit the net settlement of these contracts on a per-institution basis; however, the Company records the fair value on a gross basis on its consolidated balance sheets based on maturity dates, including those subject to master netting arrangements.

The table below presents the gross and net amounts of these contracts recognized on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets by type of financial instrument:

The table below provides data about the amount of gains and losses related to derivative instruments and non-derivative instruments designated as cash flow and net investment hedges included in “Accumulated other comprehensive loss” (“AOCL”) on the Company’s consolidated balance sheets, and in “Other income (expense), net” in the Company’s consolidated statements of income:

(1)Amounts reclassified from AOCL were classified as net revenues or costs of goods sold on the consolidated statements of income.

(2)Prior to 2006, the Company used foreign exchange currency swaps to hedge the net investment in its foreign operations. For hedges that qualified for hedge accounting, the net gains were included in AOCL and are not reclassified to earnings until the related net investment position has been liquidated.

There was no hedge ineffectiveness for the three months ended March 1, 2026. Within the next 12 months, a $26.7 million loss from cash flow hedges is expected to be reclassified from AOCL into net income.

The table below presents the effects of the Company’s cash flow hedges of foreign exchange risk contracts on the consolidated statements of income:

NOTE 5: OTHER ACCRUED LIABILITIES

The following table presents the Company’s other accrued liabilities:

NOTE 6: 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. The Company’s current payment terms with a majority of its 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 $123.8 million as of March 1, 2026 and $136.5 million as of November 30, 2025.

Interest Rates on Borrowings

The Company’s weighted-average interest rate on average borrowings outstanding during the three months ended March 1, 2026 was 4.67% as compared to 4.23% during the same period of 2025.

NOTE 8: RESTRUCTURING ACTIVITIES

For the three months ended March 1, 2026, the Company recognized restructuring charges of $7.9 million in connection with our continuing global productivity initiative, consisting primarily of severance and other post-employment benefits, based on separation benefits provided by Company policy or statutory benefit plans. These charges were recorded in “Restructuring charges, net” in the consolidated statements of income. As of March 1, 2026, the restructuring liability was $66.5 million, with $53.6 million and $12.9 million classified as “Other accrued liabilities” and “Other long-term 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. The Company has various pending audit assessments in connection with these activities. As of March 1, 2026, the Company has recorded certain estimated liabilities for these matters which are not material. The Company does not believe any of the claims for customs duty and related charges will have a material impact on its financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Other Matters. On February 20, 2026, a U.S. Supreme Court ruling invalidated tariffs imposed under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act (“IEEPA”). The Company estimates it has paid approximately $80 million under the IEEPA tariffs. The ruling did not address potential refunds, creating uncertainty regarding the potential recovery of tariffs previously assessed under that statute. As of March 1, 2026, the Company has not recognized an asset related to the potential refund. The Company will continue to evaluate new information and will recognize the refund when the requirements under ASC 450, Contingencies, have been met.

NOTE 10: DIVIDENDS

Dividends are declared at the discretion of the Board. In January 2026 and 2025, the Company declared cash dividends of $0.14 and $0.13 per share, respectively, to holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock. During the three months ended March 1, 2026, dividends were paid in the amount of $53.8 million, compared to $51.4 million for the same prior-year period.

The Company does not have an established dividend policy. The Board reviews the Company’s ability to pay dividends on an ongoing basis and establishes the dividend amount based on the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, capital requirements, current and projected cash flows and other factors, and any restrictions related to the terms of the Company’s debt agreements.

Subsequent to the Company’s quarter end, the Board declared a cash dividend of $0.14 per share to holders of record of its Class A and Class B common stock at the close of business on April 22, 2026, for a total quarterly dividend of approximately $54 million.

The Company did not have any material contract assets or contract liabilities recorded in the consolidated balance sheets as of March 1, 2026 and November 30, 2025.

NOTE 13: OTHER INCOME (EXPENSE), NET

The following table summarizes significant components of “Other income (expense), net”:

(1)Gains and losses on forward foreign exchange contracts primarily result from currency fluctuations relative to negotiated contract rates. For the three months ended March 1, 2026, gains were primarily due to currency fluctuations relative to negotiated contract rates on positions to buy the Australian dollar. For the three months ended March 2, 2025, losses 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 months ended March 1, 2026, losses were primarily due to the impact of U.S. dollar weakening against the Euro, Australian dollar, and Mexican peso. For the three months ended March 2, 2025, gains were primarily due to the impact of U.S. dollar strengthening against the Euro.

(3)During the three months ended March 1, 2026 the Company recognized a gain related to a trademark infringement legal settlement.

NOTE 14: INCOME TAXES

The Company’s effective income tax rate was 22.4% for the three months ended March 1, 2026, compared to 20.6% for the same prior-year period. The increase in the effective tax rate in the current quarter was primarily due to a higher effective tax rate on foreign earnings compared with the prior-year period.

NOTE 15: EARNINGS PER SHARE

The following table sets forth the computation of the Company’s basic and diluted earnings per share:

NOTE 16: RELATED PARTIES

Michelle Gass (President and Chief Executive Officer) and David Jedrzejek (Senior Vice President and General Counsel) are members of the Board of Directors of the Levi Strauss Foundation, which is an independent non-profit entity that is not one of our consolidated entities.

NOTE 17: BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

The Company manages its business according tothree reportable segments: Americas, Europe, and Asia, collectively comprising the Company’s Levi’s Brands business, which includes Levi’s®and Levi Strauss Signature™ brands. The Beyond Yoga® business is managed separately and does not meet the quantitative threshold for reportable segments. Corporate expenses are comprised of selling, general and administrative expenses that management does not attribute to any of our operating segments and these expenses primarily relate to corporate administration, information resources, finance and human resources functional and organizational costs. At the end of the first quarter of 2025, 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 and on July 31, 2025 the Company sold the Dockers® intellectual property and operations in the U.S. and Canada. The Company sold the remaining Dockers® operations in multiple closings during the first quarter of 2026, with the final closing on February 27, 2026. Accordingly, the Company classified the Dockers® business as discontinued operations in its consolidated statements of income for all periods presented and excluded the business from segment results for all periods presented. See Note 2 “Discontinued Operations”.

The Company considers its chief executive officer to be its chief operating decision maker. The Company’s chief operating decision maker manages business operations, evaluates performance and allocates resources based on the segments’ net revenues and operating income. The Company reports inventories by segment as that information is used by the chief operating decision maker in assessing segment performance. The Company does not report its other assets by segment as that information is not regularly provided to the chief operating decision maker in assessing segment performance.

Business segment information for the Company is as follows:

(1) For the three months ended March 1, 2026 restructuring charges, net consisted primarily of severance and post-employment benefit charges.
