REPORTS THIRD QUARTER 2025 FINANCIAL RESULTS Third quarter 2025 worldwide net sales totaled $270 million Third quarter operating loss of $22 million and operating margin of (8)%; constant currency adjusted operating loss of $15 million and constant currency adjusted operating margin of (6)% Completes balance sheet transformation, significantly strengthens financial position subsequent to quarter end Reiterates full year 2025 financial guidance Richardson, TX, November 13, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) - Fossil Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FOSL) today announced financial results for the fiscal third quarter ended October 4, 2025. “We are pleased to report another quarter of progress and momentum under our turnaround as our teams continue to deliver superior execution against the three key pillars of our plan. Importantly, this week we completed the successful transformation of our balance sheet,” said Franco Fogliato, Chief Executive Officer. “The balance sheet refinancing represents a pivotal milestone in our turnaround and allows us to turn the page to Fossil Group’s next chapter. Over the past year, we’ve built a consumer-focused, brand-led operating model, strengthened our gross margin profile, rightsized our cost structure and fortified our balance sheet. Looking ahead, this foundational platform gives us tremendous confidence that the business is positioned to deliver long-term profitable growth.” Third Quarter 2025 Operating Results Amounts referred to as “adjusted” as well as “constant currency” are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their closest reported GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release. • Net sales totaled $270.2 million, a decrease of 6.1% on a reported basis and 7.1% in constant currency compared to $287.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024. The sales decrease was largely driven by the direct to consumer channels, with our store rationalization initiatives comprising approximately 3 points of the sales decline in the third quarter. Net sales in constant currency declined 9% in the Americas, 10% in Europe and increased 2% in Asia. Wholesale sales in constant currency increased 3%, while our direct to consumer sales decreased 27%. Within our direct to consumer channels, comparable retail sales declined 22%. In our major product categories, traditional watch sales decreased 1% in constant currency in the third quarter compared to the prior year period. The leathers category decreased 37% and jewelry sales declined 23% in constant currency during the third quarter. From a brand lens, DIESEL and ARMANI EXCHANGE increased while FOSSIL decreased in the third quarter. • Gross profit totaled $132.4 million, a decline of 6.9% compared to $142.2 million in the third quarter of 2024. Gross margin decreased 40 basis points to 49.0% versus 49.4% in the third quarter of 2024. The

year-over-year decrease primarily reflects the impact of increased tariffs and licensed brand minimum royalties, largely offset by improved product margins in our core categories driven by benefits from our sourcing initiatives. • Operating expenses totaled $154.1 million, down 7.5% compared to $166.7 million a year ago. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses were 57.0% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to 57.9% in the prior year third quarter. Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2025 included $6.8 million of restructuring costs, primarily related to professional services and employee costs. Operating expenses in the third quarter of 2024 included $4.8 million of restructuring costs. SG&A expenses were $146.8 million, down 8.8% compared to the third quarter of 2024, primarily driven by cost reductions and efficiencies gained through our restructuring programs. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 54.3% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to 55.9% in the prior year third quarter. • Operating income (loss) was $(21.7) million compared to $(24.5) million in the third quarter of 2024. Operating margin was (8.0)% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to (8.5)% in the prior year third quarter. Constant currency adjusted operating loss totaled $14.9 million compared to adjusted operating loss of $22.0 million in the third quarter of 2024. Constant currency adjusted operating margin was (5.5)% in the third quarter of 2025 compared to adjusted operating margin of (7.6)% in the prior year third quarter. • Interest expense decreased to $4.2 million compared to $4.9 million in the third quarter of 2024. • Other income (expense) was expense of $6.2 million compared to income of $3.6 million in the third quarter of 2024, reflecting net currency losses in the third quarter of 2025 as compared to net currency gains in the prior year third quarter. The current year third quarter also included a $1.7 million loss on extinguishment of debt. • Income (loss) before income taxes was $(32.1) million compared to $(25.8) million in the third quarter of 2024. • Adjusted EBITDA was $(15.0) million, or (5.6)% of net sales in the third quarter of 2025 and $(15.6) million, or (5.4)% of net sales in the prior year quarter. • Provision (benefit) for income taxes was an expense of $8.0 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of (24.8)% compared to an expense of $6.2 million and an effective tax rate of (23.9)% in the prior year. The effective tax rate in the third quarter of 2025 differed from the prior year third quarter primarily due to a change in the Company’s global mix of earnings. • Net loss totaled $39.9 million with net loss per diluted share of $0.76, which compares to net loss of $32.0 million and net loss per diluted share of $0.60 in the prior year third quarter. Adjusted net loss for the third quarter was $32.8 million with adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.63 compared to adjusted net loss of $30.0 million with adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.56 in the prior year third quarter. Balance Sheet Summary & Transformation As of October 4, 2025, the Company had total liquidity of $101.9 million, including $79.2 million of cash and cash equivalents and $22.7 million of availability under its asset-based revolving credit facility ("ABL"). Inventories at the end of the third quarter of 2025 totaled $166.8 million, a decrease of 26% versus a year ago. Total debt was $176.0 million.

Today, the Company announced the consummation of its previously announced exchange offer with respect to its 7.00% Senior Notes due 2026 and its concurrent rights offering pursuant to a restructuring plan under Part 26A of the UK Companies Act 2006. The completion of the offer extends the maturity of the Company's debt by three years and includes $32.5 million in incremental, new money financing, as more fully described in our Form 8-K filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") announcing completion and our prior SEC filings relating to the exchange which describe the terms of the transactions. Additionally, the consummation of the exchange offer removed certain restrictions under its new $150 million ABL, which was secured during the third quarter of 2025, providing the Company with additional availability under the ABL, subject to the terms and conditions thereof. The above actions fortify the Company's balance sheet and provide the Company with increased liquidity and additional financial flexibility to support its turnaround and growth plans. Outlook The Company is reiterating its financial guidance for full year 2025. • Worldwide net sales are expected to decline in the mid-teens • Adjusted operating margin is expected to be break even to slightly positive Worldwide net sales guidance includes an expected impact of approximately $45 million related to retail store closures. Worldwide net sales and adjusted operating margin guidance exclude impacts from foreign currency. (1) A reconciliation of adjusted operating margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, to a corresponding GAAP measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and low visibility of certain income and expense items that are excluded in calculating adjusted operating income.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share are non-GAAP financial measures. We define Adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss) before the impact of income tax expense (benefit), plus interest expense, amortization and depreciation, impairment expense, other non-cash charges, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring expense and unamortized debt issuance costs included in loss on extinguishment of debt minus interest income and gains on asset divestitures. We define Adjusted operating income (loss) as operating income (loss) before impairment expense, restructuring expense and gains on asset divestitures. We define Constant currency adjusted operating income (loss) as operating income (loss) before impairment expense, restructuring expense and gains on asset divestitures and excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We define Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share as net income (loss) attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. and diluted earnings (loss) per share, respectively, before impairment expense, restructuring expense, gains on asset divestitures and unamortized debt issuance costs included in loss on extinguishment of debt. We have included Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share herein because they are widely used by investors for valuation and for comparing our financial performance with the performance of our competitors. We also use both non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and compare the financial performance of our operations. Our presentation of Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures other companies report. Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share are not intended to be used as alternatives to any measure of our performance in accordance with GAAP. The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, which is income (loss) before income taxes.
