Current report
Fiscal year 2025 maintained the positive growth trajectory established in early 2024, with the fourth quarter representing the seventh consecutive quarter of comparable sales increases. Strategic focus on developing trends within private label brands delivered favorable outcomes, as sales from these brands exceeded 30% of total revenue, setting a new fiscal-year record. All categories experienced positive comparable sales in 2025 with the exception of footwear. The Hardgoods category, which had experienced negative growth for several years, returned to positive growth in the second quarter and sustained that momentum through year-end. North America was the primary driver of sales growth, achieving eight consecutive quarters of positive comparable sales with product margin growth in each quarter. In Europe, efforts were redirected toward full-price selling, supported by reduced promotions and improved product assortments. Although these changes presented challenges for overall sales, product margins in Europe improved over 250 basis points year-over-year and strengthened as we moved through the year. Despite negative sales trends during the fourth quarter, we saw strong bottom line growth with product margin improvements and expense discipline.
Current report
Consolidated product margin improved 90 basis points year-over-year despite the global supply chain instability driven by tariffs. Product margin growth was possible during the year through shifting the geography of supply, working with our vendors on pricing and where necessary, adjusting retail prices. Gross margin improved by 170 basis points from 2024 with the product margin noted above being the main driver. Beyond product margin, we continue to try to leverage occupancy costs through comparable sales growth and closed 17 underperforming stores. We had outsized growth in our general and administrative expenses in 2025 primarily driven by $3.6 million in wage and hour litigation settlements in California and increased incentive compensation of $4.4 million due to North America achievement of target results. These items resulted in a 10 basis point increase in Selling General and Administrative expenses to 34.0% of sales. Overall earnings per share increased to $0.78 from a loss of $0.09 per share in 2024. The overall growth in earnings was driven primarily by better operating results but was also aided by our continued return of value to our shareholders through a share repurchase program, purchasing 2.7 million shares at an average price of $14.18 for $38.3 million during the year. The purchase of shares was worth $0.10 to earnings per share.

Previous report
After stimulus driven, record breaking results in fiscal 2021, the absence of stimulus, trend shifts and the compounding multi-year inflationary impact on consumers were significant detriments throughout fiscal year 2022.While negative sales trends continued into fiscal 2023, they lessened in intensity each quarter with fourth quarter comparable sales down 3.9% from the prior year. The improving sales trends throughout fiscal 2023 reflected positive momentum in emerging brands on the men’s side of the business as the men’s category turned positive in the fourth quarter. In 2024, sales trends turned positive after the first quarter and we posted positive comparable sales growth in each of the final eight months of the year with comparable sales up 4.0% for the full year (and total sales up 1.6% despite the negative impacts on growth of both the 53 rd week in the prior year worth $12.0 million and closed stores worth $9.0 million). The turn of our business continues to be driven by the apparel categories across both men's and women's with the men’s business being our largest growth category followed by women’s and footwear.
Previous report
In fiscal year 2024, product margin increased 54 basis points from the prior year driven by strong private label performance and less discounting with better sales performance. Fiscal 2024 was the highest product margin in our history excluding fiscal 2021 which was positively impacted by significant stimulus spending. Gross Margin improved 200 basis points to 34.1% in 2024 driven by leverage on increased sales, strong management of our lease portfolio, negotiated reductions in shipping costs and well-managed distribution operations. Our Selling General and Administrative expenses were down $44.6 million from the prior year driven by a $41.1 million goodwill impairment charge in fiscal 2023. Excluding that charge, Selling General and Administrative expenses were reduced by $3.5 million from fiscal 2023 with continued management of expenses that was slightly offset by higher levels of incentive compensation for current year performance. Our sales growth, combined with increases in product margins and reductions of expense across multiple areas drove a positive $1.9 million in operating profit for the year, an improvement of $66.7 million from 2023, or an improvement of $25.6 million excluding the goodwill impairment charges in 2023. Due to an effective tax rate of 142.0% related to the distribution of our income across the jurisdictions in which we operate, we had a $0.09 loss per share in fiscal 2024. This was an improvement from a loss of $3.25 per share in fiscal 2023, or a $1.12 loss per share excluding goodwill impairment charges.

As a leading global lifestyle retailer, we continue to differentiate ourselves through our distinctive brand offering and diverse product selection, as well as the unique customer experience across all of our platforms. We remained committed to serving our customer launching well over 120 new brands in 2024. We made investments over several years to integrate the digital and physical channels creating a seamless shopping experience for our customer. We are continuing to deliver our online orders in North America from our stores, which has provided substantial improvements in the speed of delivery to our customers, eliminated the need to manage two pools of inventory separately for digital and physical demand, and created one cost structure for execution of both physical and digital sales. Internationally we continue to see deeper penetration of localized fulfillment and are in various stages of roll-out in different countries. In-store fulfillment is a key part of strategy that we believe will drive long term market share by leveraging the strengths of our store sales team, providing better and faster service to customers, improving product margins, maximizing the productivity of inventory, providing additional selling opportunities, and utilizing one cost structure to serve the customer.

In fiscal 2025, our focus will continue to be serving the customer by bringing differentiated product in a unique sales experience along with strategic investments focused on enhancing the customer experience while increasing market share and creating operational efficiencies to drive long-term operating margin expansion. After two difficult years the business returned to growth and positive free cash flow. The balance sheet remains strong with $147.6 million in cash and marketable securities at the end of fiscal 2024 with no debt. We are in a solid financial position providing the security to manage through potential difficulties, while also investing strategically in important long-term initiatives and returning value to our shareholders.
Current wording
In fiscal 2026, our focus will continue to be serving the customer by bringing differentiated products in a unique sales experience along with strategic investments focused on enhancing the customer experience while increasing market share and creating operational efficiencies to drive long-term operating margin expansion. After a difficult period through COVID and the related aftermath marked by stimulus, tariffs, inflation and strained discretionary income, the business began recovering in 2024 and returned profitability in 2025. The balance sheet remains strong with $160.6 million in cash and marketable securities at the end of fiscal 2025 with no debt. We are in a solid financial position providing the security to manage through potential difficulties, while also investing strategically in important long-term initiatives and returning value to our shareholders.
Previous wording
While our growth and return to positive operating profit in fiscal 2024 have us optimistic, the macro-economic environment in 2025 remains unclear. Inflation has moderated, but it is not yet at desired levels. The impact of multiple years of compounding growth in the cost of consumer goods continues to put pressure on the discretionary income of our customer base as consumer savings balances decrease and consumer debt grows. The impact of global events and regulation change could also continue to make things less clear on the consumer and potentially result in a pullback of spending. However, with sales momentum as we exit fiscal 2024, our focus will be to further capitalize on the positive trends in the business and provide the newness that our customers expect from Zumiez. Trend cycles continue to move quickly, and we will invest in our ability to better understand our customers, communicate with them and serve their needs to drive market share gains.

Gross profit was $303.0 million for fiscal 2024 compared to $280.9 million for fiscal 2023, an increase of $22.1 million, or 7.9%. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased 200 basis points in fiscal 2024 to 34.1%. The increase was primarily driven by 80 basis point benefit in web shipping costs, 70 basis point increase in product margin (defined as net sales minus cost of goods sold excluding shrinkage, buying, occupancy, distribution and warehousing costs and freight costs for store merchandise transfers) due to reduced discounting and continued strength of our private label that carries higher product margin, 50 basis point leverage in store occupancy costs, and
Current wording
Gross profit was $332.5 million for fiscal 2025 compared to $303.0 million for fiscal 2024, an increase of $29.5 million, or 9.7%. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased 170 basis points in fiscal 2025 to 35.8%. The increase was primarily driven by a 90 basis point improvement in product margin (defined as net sales minus cost of goods sold excluding shrinkage, buying, occupancy, distribution and warehousing costs and freight costs for store merchandise transfers), 70 basis points of leverage in store occupancy costs related to both higher sales and closure of underperforming stores.
Previous wording
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $301.1 million for fiscal 2024 compared to $345.7 million for fiscal 2023, a decrease of $44.6 million, or 12.9%. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales decreased 560 basis points in fiscal 2024 to 33.9%. The benefit was primarily driven by 480 basis point benefit due to impairment of prior year goodwill worth $41.1 million, 30 basis point benefit due to lower corporate costs, 30 basis point benefit in store wages driven by efficiencies in hours and leverage in higher sales and 30 basis points from store costs not tied to wages primarily impacted by leverage on higher sales. These decreases were partially offset by a 20 basis point increase in annual incentive compensation.
Current wording
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses were $315.5 million for fiscal 2025 compared to $301.1 million for fiscal 2024, an increase of $14.4 million, or 4.8%. SG&A expenses as a percent of net sales increased 10 basis points in fiscal 2025 to 34.0%.

Previous wording
Net loss for fiscal 2024 was $1.7 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, compared with net loss of $62.6 million, or $3.25 per diluted share, for fiscal 2023. Our effective income tax rate for fiscal 2024 was 142.0% compared to -1.2% for fiscal 2023. The change in effective income tax rate for fiscal 2024 compared to fiscal 2023 was primarily related to foreign losses in Austria, which are subject to a valuation allowance. Due to cumulative and ongoing foreign losses in such jurisdictions, the realization of such deferred tax assets is uncertain and thus subject to a valuation allowance. The increase in the valuation allowance in fiscal 2024 resulted in $5.1 million of income tax expense when compared to fiscal 2023 of $12.3 million.
Current wording
Net income for fiscal 2025 was $13.4 million, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared with net loss of $1.7 million, or $0.09 per diluted share, for fiscal 2024. Our effective income tax rate for fiscal 2025 was 44.4% compared to 142.0% for fiscal 2024. The change in effective income tax rate for fiscal 2025 compared to fiscal 2024 was primarily driven by improved operating results and the allocation of foreign losses in certain jurisdictions, which are subject to a valuation allowance. The introduction of new valuation allowances in certain jurisdictions contributed $4.2 million of income tax expense, while continued losses in jurisdictions with established valuation allowances added $5.0 million, resulting in a $9.2 million total income tax expense for fiscal 2025 compared to $5.1 million in fiscal 2024.

The increase in cash, cash equivalents and current marketable securities in fiscal 2024 was due primarily to cash provided by operating activities of $20.7 million, sale of marketable securities net of purchases amounting to $47.6 million, partially offset by the $25.2 million repurchase of common stock, and capital expenditures of $15.0 million primarily related to the opening of 7 new stores and 6 remodels and relocations.

Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $5.9 million in fiscal 2024 to $20.7 million cash provided by operating activities from $14.8 million cash provided by operating activities in fiscal 2023. Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $15.1 million in fiscal 2023 to $14.8 million cash provided by operating activities from $0.4 million cash used in operating activities in fiscal 2022. Our operating cash flows result primarily from cash received from our customers, offset by cash payments we make for inventory, employee compensation, store occupancy expenses and other operational expenditures. Cash received from our customers generally corresponds to our net sales. Because our customers primarily use credit and debit cards or cash to buy from us, our receivables from customers settle quickly. Changes to our operating cash flows have historically been driven primarily by changes in operating income, which is impacted by changes to non-cash items such as depreciation, impairment, amortization and accretion, deferred taxes, and changes to the components of working capital.
