G-III Apparel Group
G-III Apparel Group's revenue fell 7.0% to $3.0 billion in fiscal 2025. Its operating margin was 3.6%, down from 9.2% a year earlier. Free cash flow was $264 million, down 4.0%. It paid out $54 million in dividends and buybacks, 20% of free cash flow. The diluted share count fell 3.5%.
Operating margin is operating income as a share of revenue. Free cash flow is cash from operations minus capital spending. Return on capital is after-tax operating income as a share of the money invested in the business: debt plus equity, minus cash. Market cap is the last closing share price times the latest diluted share count, so it is approximate. P/E is the last close divided by diluted earnings per share over the last four quarters, or the latest fiscal year where the quarters aren't available; there is none when the company made a loss.

Valuation
Two ways to value G-III Apparel Group yourself, both starting from its filings: a discounted cash flow model and the price-to-earnings method.
What G-III Apparel Group says to expect
- Third quarter fiscal 2027: net sales
Net sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2027 are expected to be approximately $870.0 million. This compares to net sales of $988.6 million in last year’s third quarter.
- Third quarter fiscal 2027: net income
Net income for the third quarter of fiscal 2027 is expected to be between $59.0 million and $64.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $1.35 and $1.45.
- Fiscal 2027: net sales
Net sales for fiscal 2027 are expected to be approximately $2.71 billion, which incorporates the loss of approximately $460 million of sales from Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger products.
- Fiscal 2027: adjusted EBITDA
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $174.0 million and $178.0 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $192.4 million in fiscal 2026.
Discounted cash flow (DCF)
A discounted cash flow (DCF) model values a business as the cash it may generate in future, discounted back to today. The starting figures come from G-III Apparel Group's 10-K (or, for net cash and shares, its latest 10-Q) and the assumptions are yours: start from one of three example scenarios, then change any figure to see what it implies for a share, and how that compares with the last share price.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from G-III Apparel Group's fiscal 2025 free cash flow of $264M, net cash of $402M at January 31, 2026 and 44 million diluted shares, from its filings. The scenarios are fitted to G-III Apparel Group: the base scenario's growth in years 1 to 5 is its revenue growth over the last 3 years, -2.9% a year, kept between 0% and 20%; the cautious and optimistic ones are lower and higher, and growth in years 6 to 10 is halfway to the long-run rate. The base scenario's discount rate is 13%: 11% for a cyclical or higher-risk business (Apparel, Accessories & Luxury Goods), plus 1 point as a smaller company, worth $1.3B, plus 1 point for unsteady results (a loss in fiscal 2022); the cautious and optimistic ones use a point more and a point less. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target.

How the value changes with two assumptions
Price-to-earnings (P/E) method
Another common way to value a company is to multiply its earnings per share by a price-to-earnings (P/E) multiple: the number of years of today's earnings an investor pays for a share. A higher multiple usually means investors expect earnings to grow. Choose a multiple, for example from similar companies, to see the value it gives.
Value per share on three example scenarios, from G-III Apparel Group's earnings per share of $3.08 (over the last four quarters). Each grows earnings for a year at the cash flow scenarios' rates and applies a multiple to next year's earnings: 13.9×, the middle of G-III Apparel Group's own P/E today, its peers' median and its sector's median (its peers' median) for the base scenario, 20% less and more for the cautious and optimistic ones. The price is brought back a year at 14%, 13% and 12%. Select one to load it into the calculator. These are the model's arithmetic on those assumptions, not a forecast or a price target.
