The largest driver of our Q4 revenue guidance is, 6 months ago, we made the decision to cut our spring and summer buys to help ensure that we finish this fiscal year in a healthy place from an inventory perspective, that we and our partners finish this year in a healthy place from an inventory perspective. And we're making great progress against that. So we expect to continue to see improvement in Q4 in our inventory and are confident that we're going to finish this year in a position of strength as we look ahead to fiscal year '24.

威富公司 (VFC) 2023Q3 法說會逐字稿(23/02/08):
So maybe first, where we are against the higher manufacturing and shipping lead times, we're seeing improvements. Those have started to come down, and we need to continue to focus on that trajectory. The customer service clearly is unsatisfactory. And we're putting a lot of work in place to be back on track by the end of the first half and fiscal year '24. Matt talked about higher excess seasonal inventory. We're making good progress and assuming that to be more normalized by the end of Q4 of this fiscal year. And our cost to serve clearly are higher, and we'll see improvements throughout fiscal year '24 starting with Q1. So this all is going to stay with us a little bit, but we're expecting improvements from here on out.
Columbia Sportswear Co (COLM) 2022Q4 法說會逐字稿(23/02/02):
We are carrying over a fair amount of inventory as we've previously spoken about. There's a large proportion of our product lineup that is an evergreen product that carries over season-to-season. And much of that has been offered as part of our Fall '23 product mix that we've sold into our wholesale customers. So we're in good shape as it relates to having sold in a lot of that inventory already. And then to the degree there is aged or excess inventory that's remaining, we've adjusted our inventory buys for our outlets and shifted that back more towards moving through excess and liquidation as opposed to made-for product.
正如我們之前所說,我們正在結轉相當數量的庫存。我們的產品系列中有很大一部分是四季皆宜的常青產品。其中大部分已作為我們出售給批發客戶的 Fall '23 產品組合的一部分提供。因此,我們處於良好狀態,因為這與已經售出大量庫存有關。然後,就剩餘的陳舊或過剩庫存而言,我們已經調整了我們為門店購買的庫存,並將其更多地轉向通過過剩和清算而不是為產品製造。
