Financial results for fiscal year 2023
For fiscal year 2023, BIRKENSTOCK reports revenues of EUR 1.492 billion, up 20% compared to fiscal year 2022 on a reported and constant currency basis. The revenue growth was driven by both unit growth of 6% and an increase in the average selling price ("ASP") by 14% since fiscal year 2022. This was supported by a sales channel mix favoring DTC revenues, the distribution takeover in key markets in Europe and the Asia-Pacific, Middle East and Africa region ("APMA"), a shift in demand towards premium products and strong pricing power as reflected in a high number of full-price sales. As a result, BIRKENSTOCK reports an increase in DTC revenues of 29% on a constant currency basis in fiscal year 2023 compared to fiscal year 2022, resulting in an expansion of DTC penetration by 200 basis points to 40%.
BIRKENSTOCK reports a Net profit of EUR 75 million, Adjusted Net profit of EUR 207 million, EPS of EUR 0.41 and pro-forma Adjusted EPS of EUR 1.10 based on a post-IPO share count of 188 million. Adjusted EBITDA increased by 11% to EUR 483 million in fiscal year 2023, which translates into an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 32.4%. BIRKENSTOCK successfully continues its profitable long-term growth trajectory as the fiscal year 2023 results solidify its historical track record, with the Company achieving a CAGR of 20% in revenues for the past decade, an Adjusted Gross profit margin of over 60%, and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of over 30%.
Financial performance in fiscal year 2023 has been underpinned by a strong and healthy balance sheet. For fiscal year 2023, BIRKENSTOCK achieved cash flows from operating activities of EUR 359 million, up 53% compared to the prior fiscal year. The increase is primarily driven by a strong operational performance as well as a lower inventory buildup compared to fiscal year 2022.
Cash flows used in investing activities were EUR 101 million primarily driven by production capacity expansion. BIRKENSTOCK’s strong cash flow generation allowed the Company to cover its capital expenditure completely out of cash flows from operating activities. In addition, BIRKENSTOCK successfully continued its deleveraging process post-IPO and utilized the net proceeds from the IPO, together with existing cash, to repay a significant portion of debt after fiscal year end 2023. In October and November 2023, the Company repaid USD 450 million on the USD Term Loan B and EUR 100 million on the Vendor Loan reducing net leverage to below 2.5 times post-IPO.
Consistent double-digit revenue growth across all segments and channels
All segments and channels (both on a regional and global level) contributed to the Company’s positive revenue development. In the Americas region, BIRKENSTOCK achieved 21% revenue growth in fiscal year 2023 on a reported and 20% on a constant currency basis, making the region the largest contributor to overall revenue growth in absolute terms. Europe delivered 18% revenue growth in fiscal year 2023 on a reported as well as on a constant currency basis. The APMA region delivered the highest growth in relative terms at 24% on a reported and 27% on a constant currency basis in fiscal year 2023 with China and India as key growth drivers evidencing that BIRKENSTOCK’s continued execution in these large and strategic markets is accelerating its overall growth.
Q4 2023 revenues demonstrate resilience of BIRKENSTOCK’s business model
BIRKENSTOCK’s business model proved to be resilient and gained even more momentum in the quarter ended September 30, 2023 (Q4 2023) despite subdued customer sentiment. In Q4 2023 revenues grew by 16% on a reported and 22% on a constant currency basis compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022. The Americas segment reported the highest growth of all regions, as, driven by its engineered distribution in particular, the B2B channel outperformed other markets. For Q4 2023 BIRKENSTOCK reports a growth in B2B revenues in the Americas of 61% on a reported and 73% on a constant currency basis compared to the quarter ended September 30, 2022.
Oliver Reichert, CEO of BIRKENSTOCK Group and Member of the Board of Directors of the Company:
"We are very pleased with our financial results and performance for fiscal year 2023. The past year has been the most successful year in our 250 year long tradition, and we entered our first year as a publicly listed company shortly thereafter. As a footbed company with a unique business model and a proven engineered distribution model, we offer a product with a purpose and that withstands short-term market or fashion trends, because it serves a primal human need – to walk as nature intended.
For fiscal year 2024 we are confident to further grow our business by tapping significant addressable geographic, category extension and distribution white space, remaining strongly committed to delivering uncompromising premium quality to our customers and undeterred by the broader macroeconomic backdrop."
Fiscal year 2024 outlook
BIRKENSTOCK expects financial performance in fiscal year 2024 to be driven by substantial growth in geographic and category extension white spaces, backed by its engineered distribution model and a disciplined investment and capital management approach.
BIRKENSTOCK expects revenues to be in the range of EUR 1.74 billion to EUR 1.76 billion on a constant currency basis, reflecting overall revenue growth of 17% to 18% compared to fiscal year 2023 with all segments and channels contributing to revenue growth. BIRKENSTOCK expects Adjusted EBITDA of EUR 520 million to EUR 530 million on a constant currency basis, resulting in an Adjusted EBITDA margin of approximately 30%. In fiscal year 2024, we expect a modest headwind to Adjusted EBITDA margins due to planned ramp-up costs and an initial under-absorption in Pasewalk. The added capacity will help fulfil future demand, and the Company is on schedule to realize the benefits of this capacity expansion later in fiscal year 2024 and the upcoming years. Long-term, BIRKENSTOCK expects an Adjusted EBITDA margin in the low thirties with slight variations based on our investments.
BIRKENSTOCK’s effective tax rate is projected to be approximately 30% in fiscal year 2024.
The Company remains committed to investing in production capacity and retail store expansion while continuing to deleverage its balance sheet in fiscal year 2024. Thus, BIRKENSTOCK expects to invest approximately EUR 150 million of capital expenditure into growing production capacity and retail store expansion.

A reconciliation is provided in the tables accompanying this press release for each non-IFRS financial measure in this press release to the most directly comparable financial measure stated in accordance with IFRS.

(1)Unaudited.
(2)Represents the effect of applying the acquisition method of accounting for the acquisition of the BIRKENSTOCK Group by Birkenstock Holding Limited on April 30, 2021 (the "Transaction") to inventory valuation and the subsequent impact on cost of sales. In fiscal year 2022, cost of sales included inventory that had been measured at fair value as part of the Transaction. This effect amounted to €24.4 million for fiscal year 2022.
(3)Represents Transaction-related advisory costs of €2.6 million for fiscal year 2022.
(4)Represents the primarily non-cash impact of foreign exchange rates within profit (loss). We do not consider these gains and losses representative of operating performance of the business because they are primarily driven by fluctuations in the USD to Euro foreign exchange rate on intercompany receivables for inventory and intercompany loans.
(5)Represents IPO-related costs, which include consulting as well as legal fees.
(6)Represents share-based compensation expenses relating to the management investment plan.
(7)Represents non-recurring expenses that we do not consider representative of the operating performance of the business, primarily comprised of relocation expenses of € 4.6 million for fiscal year 2023, restructuring expenses of €2.0 million for fiscal year 2023 and €0.8 million for fiscal year 2022, and consulting fees for integration projects of €0.7 million for fiscal year 2022.
(8)Represents income tax effects for the adjustments as outlined above, except for unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) as well as share-based compensation expenses since these have not been treated as tax deductible in the initial tax calculation.
