Delta Apparel Expects to Report Fiscal 2022 Net Sales of Over $484 Million

Fiscal 2022 Net Sales Exceed Expectations with Growth of Approximately 11%

Delta Apparel, Inc. (NYSE American: DLA), a leading provider of core activewear and lifestyle apparel products, today announced preliminary net sales results for its fiscal year 2022 fourth quarter and full year.

The Company expects net sales for fiscal 2022 to be approximately $484 million, representing an increase of 11% from the prior year. The Company’s fiscal 2022 net sales were broad-based with all five go-to-market channels, Delta Direct, Brand Direct, Retail Direct, DTG2Go, and Salt Life, expected to register year-over-year growth. The Company projects overall net sales for the fiscal 2022 fourth quarter to be approximately $115 million, comparable to last fiscal year’s fourth quarter. The fiscal 2022 fourth quarter’s sales revenue was driven by continued double-digit growth in the Salt Life Group and in the DTG2Go business unit, while the activewear business contributed to a slight decline in the overall Delta Group segment sales.

Robert W. Humphreys, the Company’s Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “In what remained a dynamic and highly fluid macroeconomic environment throughout our fiscal year, we are extremely pleased with our performance across all five of our go-to-market channels. Our teams successfully navigated many obstacles during the year, and we expect net sales for fiscal year 2022 to represent double-digit organic growth over the prior year.”

Humphreys continued, “We are also pleased with our fiscal 2022 fourth quarter revenue driven by continued double-digit increases in net sales in our Salt Life Group and in our DTG2Go on-demand digital print business. In addition to our DTG2Go business unit, we experienced growth in our Global Brands channel, largely offsetting a slower trend in our Delta Direct activewear channel showcasing the strength of the unique diversification of our business model within our Delta Group.

The continued momentum in our Salt Life business further validates the brand’s growing lifestyle appeal. We are encouraged with the outstanding performance of Salt Life branded retail doors. Additionally, our direct-to-consumer e-commerce business returned to growth in our fourth fiscal quarter. The increase of sales in these channels combined with continued growth in our wholesale channel resulted in double-digit year-over-year revenue growth. With the fourth quarter opening of the Salt Life store in Jupiter, Florida, our retail store footprint now encompasses twenty-one locations, exceeding our target set at the beginning of the year to operate twenty stores by the end of fiscal year 2022.”

Humphreys concluded, “The current year’s success is a testament to the hard work of our people across all of our business operations, demonstrating their unwavering focus on servicing our customers during these extraordinary times.”

The Company intends to provide final and complete financial results for the fiscal year 2022 fourth quarter ended October 1, 2022, in a regularly scheduled quarterly press release and earnings call. Details regarding the time and date of that earnings call will be provided in advance of the call.
