We achieved the highest quarterly revenue in our history, driven by unbreakable and growing demand across all segments, channels and categories. As a Superbrand we are gaining the attention of our key retail partners and their consumers, who are becoming increasingly selective and more intentional in their spending. They are also looking for more physical touch-points with the products. Our Q3 results demonstrate our ability to meet consumer demand and align with shopping patterns while maintaining our disciplined engineered distribution approach, which remains our guiding principle. We remain confident in our ability to deliver on our medium to long-term objectives for mid-to-high teens revenue growth, gross profit margin of 60% and Adjusted EBITDA margin of over 30%."
Fiscal third quarter 2024 results demonstrate continued strong and growing consumer demand
BIRKENSTOCK reports record third quarter revenue of EUR 565 million, up 19% compared to fiscal third quarter 2023 on a constant currency basis, continuing its track record of strong double-digit revenue growth. Top-line growth was the result of strong consumer demand supported by new production capacity and category expansion. Revenue growth benefited from increased sales of closed-toe silhouettes, which grew at over twice the brand average and closed-toe penetration increased 400 basis points year-over-year.
During the fiscal third quarter, BIRKENSTOCK saw strong growth across all segments and channels and continued to benefit from significant geographic expansion, increased usage occasions and distribution white space. The Company opened 7 new owned stores, bringing the total number of owned retail stores to 64.
B2B revenue grew 23% year-over-year as wholesale demand, supported by strong sell-through, remains very high. Over 90% of B2B growth came from within existing doors as key retail partners continue to expand the breadth and depth of their BIRKENSTOCK offerings to meet growing consumer demand. DTC revenue grew 14% on a constant currency basis in the fiscal third quarter 2024 against a very strong fiscal third quarter 2023 (which grew 26% from the fiscal third quarter 2022), resulting in a DTC penetration rate of 40%.
Broad-based double-digit revenue growth across all segments and channels
In the Americas, strong consumer momentum and demand for the brand continued to drive record sales in the fiscal third quarter of 2024. BIRKENSTOCK delivered constant currency revenue growth of 15% in the third quarter, supported by continued growth in both the B2B and DTC channels. B2B growth was driven by over 25% growth in key department store partners, many of whom drove meaningful brand exposure with 250-year anniversary in-store highlight executions and allocated increased space in support of the initiatives.
In Europe, BIRKENSTOCK continues to see market-leading growth and share gains across the region. Revenue in Europe grew 19% on a constant currency basis, driven by strong demand in both the B2B and DTC channels. Better alignment with key retail partners led to increased orders and better sell-through performance throughout the region, with particular strength in France and Benelux, where distributor partners were recently phased out and replaced by healthy direct distribution.
In the APMA region, BIRKENSTOCK achieved revenue growth of 41% on a constant currency basis for the fiscal third quarter 2024, due to strong, emergent consumer demand throughout the region. The Company opened 4 new owned stores, including 3 in India and 1 in Japan, bringing the total in the APMA region to 23. Additionally, the Company added 10 new mono-brand partner stores.
Investing in production capacity to meet consumer demand and expand footprint
BIRKENSTOCK invested EUR 15 million in capital expenditures in the quarter, bringing the total year-to-date to EUR 50 million. As previously communicated, the ongoing capacity expansion, including the new Pasewalk production facility, provides the Company with the bandwidth and flexibility to expand its footprint into underpenetrated segments and categories. The Company estimates the temporary impact of this investment reduced gross profit margin and Adjusted EBITDA margin by 120 basis points in the third quarter.
BIRKENSTOCK continues to have a strong balance sheet with cash and cash equivalents of EUR 404 million and net leverage of 2.1x as of June 30, 2024. On May 28, 2024, the Company announced its subsidiaries' refinancing of the existing term loans and the replacement of the undrawn ABL facility with a new revolving credit facility, including the repayment of approximately USD 50 million, which was completed on August 2, 2024. The Company notified its lenders earlier this week of its intention to repay an additional USD 100 million on September 3, 2024. The Company remains committed to further deleveraging its balance sheet with free cash flow and has a stated target of 2x net leverage by the end of the calendar year.
Financial outlook
The Company confirms its fiscal 2024 guidance for revenue growth of approximately 19% on a reported basis and 20% on a constant currency basis and an Adjusted EBITDA margin of 30-30.5%. The Company reiterates its medium to long-term profitability objectives for Gross profit margin of approximately 60% and Adjusted EBITDA margin over 30%.

(1) Represents share-based compensation expenses relating to the management investment plan.
(2) Represents relocation expenses which are considered non-recurring expenses and not representative of the operating performance of the business.
(3) Represents restructuring expenses which are considered non-recurring expenses and not representative of the operating performance of the business.
(4) Represents IPO-related costs, which include consulting as well as legal fees.
(5) Represents costs associated with the secondary offering on behalf of the selling shareholder. The secondary offering was completed on June 28, 2024.
(6) 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.
(7) Three months ended June 30, 2024: Represents capitalized transaction costs of the existing term loans and ABL facility. Due to a new financing agreement (effective August 2, 2024) and replacement of the existing term loans and ABL facility, transaction costs were fully amortized through Finance cost, net, during the third quarter of fiscal 2024. Nine months ended June 30, 2024: Further impact of €11 million from the early repayment of USD 450 million to the USD Term Loan B in the first quarter of fiscal 2024.
(8) Represents income tax effects for the adjustments as outlined above, except for unrealized foreign exchange gain (loss) and share-based compensation expenses since these have not been treated as tax deductible in the initial tax calculation.
