“I am very pleased to report that we had a strong fourth quarter performance, exceeding our guidance for earnings per share and delivering operating profit at the high end of our expectations. We closed the year with strong liquidity and a solid balance sheet, which positions us well to navigate through the current coronavirus crisis,” Carlos Alberini, chief executive officer of Guess, said in a press release.

“In the near term, we are actively managing the global situation, prioritising the health and well-being of our associates around the world. While we hope that the crisis will be temporary, we do expect it will have a significant negative impact on our financial results for the first quarter and may impact future results, including potential disruptions in our supply chain, Alberini said.
 
That said, we currently are unable to determine with any degree of accuracy the impact the crisis may have in the future on our financial results or how long it may last. As a result, we are not in a position to issue guidance for the first quarter or fiscal year 2021.”
