WEYCO REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2025 SALES AND EARNINGS;

DECLARES SPECIAL CASH DIVIDEND OF $2.00 PER SHARE

Milwaukee, Wisconsin---November 4, 2025---Weyco Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: WEYS) (“we,” “our,” “us” and the “Company”) today announced financial results for the quarter ended September 30, 2025.

​

Third Quarter 2025 Overview

​

North American Wholesale Segment

Wholesale net sales were $60.2 million for the quarter, down 2% from $61.1 million in the third quarter of 2024. Sales volumes were down 7% for the quarter, but selling price increases instituted on July 1, 2025, helped mitigate the impact of the volume decline. The volume decline was primarily due to reduced business with a large customer who failed to timely adopt our new pricing structure, resulting in order cancellations during the period. These cancellations adversely affected all our major brands’ sales performance for the quarter.

​

At the brand level, Florsheim posted an 8% sales increase for the quarter, driven by favorable pricing. Florsheim’s sales volumes were flat for the quarter, as its growth in the dress shoe category helped sustain volume levels. BOGS sales were down 17% for the quarter due to a reduction in pairs shipped, a reflection of continued softness in the seasonal footwear category. Stacy Adams’ sales were down 5% for the quarter, driven by lower sales volumes. Nunn Bush sales were up 1% for the period, as selling price increases more than offset the brand’s decline in volume.

​

Wholesale gross earnings as a percentage of net sales were 35.7% and 40.1% in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Gross margins for the quarter were negatively impacted by incremental tariffs, discussed below. Although selling price increases helped mitigate the effect of these tariffs, they did not fully offset the resulting costs, leading to margin erosion for the period. Wholesale selling and administrative expenses totaled $14.0 million for the quarter and $15.1 million last year. The decrease was primarily due to lower employee costs. As a percentage of net sales, wholesale selling and administrative expenses were 23% and 25% in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Wholesale operating earnings totaled $7.5 million for the quarter, down 20% from $9.4 million in 2024, due to lower sales volumes and margin erosion.

​

Incremental Tariffs

In early 2025, the U.S. government enacted reciprocal and retaliatory tariffs (“incremental tariffs”) on goods imported into the United States. The incremental tariff on goods sourced from China, where the majority of our products originate, remained at 30% throughout the third quarter of 2025. This tariff rate has been set to be re-evaluated on or before November 10, 2025. The U.S. and China recently engaged in high-level trade talks, and in late October reached a tentative framework agreement which, among other things, contemplates a reduction in U.S. tariffs on certain Chinese goods. As a result of this agreement, the previously scheduled tariff re-evaluation remains subject to change and the ultimate tariff rate remains uncertain. The incremental tariffs on goods we source from other countries, excluding China, ranged from 10% to 50% throughout the third quarter of 2025.  U.S. trade and tariff policies currently remain fluid and unpredictable, and the specific tariff rates applicable to goods imported by our company continue to evolve. As such, there is significant ongoing uncertainty regarding the potential near-term impact of incremental tariffs on our gross margins. We have implemented various mitigation strategies, and remain committed to adopting further strategies, as needed, in response to future policy developments.

​

Forsake

During the third quarter of 2025, we made the strategic decision to wind down operations of the Forsake brand, due to its sustained lack of growth and profitability. The closure of this brand is not expected to have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

​

North American Retail Segment

Net sales in our retail segment, which were generated mainly through our e-commerce websites, totaled $7.0 million for the quarter, down 4% from $7.2 million in 2024. The decline was primarily due to softer demand on our Florsheim and Stacy Adams websites, amid the tepid retail environment. Although we implemented selling price increases, heightened price sensitivity among consumers

contributed to a shift in purchasing behavior toward lower-price alternatives, both on our websites and on other, more promotional websites. 

Retail gross earnings as a percentage of net sales were 66.4% and 66.9% in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively. Retail operating earnings totaled $0.6 million for the quarter and $0.8 million in last year’s third quarter. The decrease was primarily due to lower sales volumes.

​

Other Operations

Other operations consist of our retail and wholesale businesses primarily based in Australia, with a limited presence in South Africa (collectively, “Florsheim Australia”). Net sales of Florsheim Australia remained flat at $6.0 million in both the third quarters of 2025 and 2024. In local currency, Florsheim Australia’s net sales were up 2% for the quarter, driven by growth in its retail businesses. Florsheim Australia’s gross earnings as a percentage of net sales were 61.0% and 59.2% in the third quarters of 2025 and 2024, respectively.  Florsheim Australia generated operating losses totaling $0.1 million for the quarter and breakeven results for the third quarter of last year.

​

“Sales for the quarter declined modestly, primarily due to a pricing issue with a large wholesale customer partially offset by the impact of planned price increases,” stated Thomas W. Florsheim, Jr., Chairman and CEO. “Despite price increases, our margins compressed due to the costly imposition of incremental tariffs. The volatile tariff environment has also introduced short-term disruptions within our supply chain, and we are actively pursuing long-term mitigation strategies to overcome these challenges. These strategies include shifting our sourcing in alignment with evolving tariff policies, optimizing our pricing structure, and enhancing operational efficiencies. We remain confident that these efforts will strengthen our resilience and position the company for sustained profitability.”

​

Dividend Declarations

On November 4, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.27 per share to all shareholders of record on November 17, 2025, payable January 9, 2026. Additionally, as announced in a separate news release, on November 4, 2025, our Board of Directors declared a special cash dividend of $2.00 per share to all shareholders of record on November 17, 2025, payable January 9, 2026.

​

“We are pleased to announce this return of capital to shareholders,” stated Thomas W. Florsheim, Jr., Chairman and CEO. “Over the past few years, we have built up cash in excess of what we need to fund operations and capital expenditures.  Looking to the future, we anticipate that our strong balance sheet and liquidity will allow us to fund organic growth and pursue future strategic opportunities as they arise.  Therefore, we are returning capital to our shareholders in the form of a special cash dividend alongside our regular quarterly dividend.”
