Independent Auditor’s Report
Administrative Committee of the Plan
PVH Associates Investment Plan
Report on the Financial Statements
We were engaged to audit the accompanying financial statements of PVH Associates Investment Plan (the “Plan”), which comprise the statements of net assets available for benefits as
of December 31, 2020 and 2019, and the related statements of changes in net assets available for benefits for the year ended December 31, 2020, and the related notes to the financial statements (collectively, the financial statements).
Management’s Responsibility for the Financial Statements
Management is responsible for the preparation and fair presentation of these financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of
America; this includes the design, implementation, and maintenance of internal control relevant to the preparation and fair presentation of financial statements that are free from material misstatement, whether due to fraud or error.
Auditor’s Responsibility
Our responsibility is to express an opinion on these financial statements based on conducting the audits in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States
of America. Because of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, however, we were not able to obtain sufficient appropriate audit evidence to provide a basis for an audit opinion.
Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion
As permitted by 29 CFR 2520.103-8 of the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, the plan
administrator instructed us not to perform, and we did not perform, any auditing procedures with respect to the information summarized in Note 4, which was certified by Great-West Trust Company, the trustee of the Plan, except for comparing the
information with the related information included in the financial statements. We have been informed by the plan administrator that the trustee holds the Plan’s investment assets and executes investment transactions. The plan administrator has
obtained a certification from the trustee as of and for the years ended December 31, 2020 and 2019, that the information provided to the plan administrator by the trustee is complete and accurate.

Other Matter
The supplemental information of Schedule H, line 4i - schedule of assets (held at end of year) for the year ended December 31, 2020, is required
by the Department of Labor’s Rules and Regulations for Reporting and Disclosure under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 and is presented for the purpose of additional analysis and is not a required part of the financial statements.
Because of the significance of the matter described in the Basis for Disclaimer of Opinion paragraph, we do not express an opinion on the supplemental schedule referred to above.
Report on Form and Content in Compliance With DOL Rules and Regulations
The form and content of the information included in the financial statements and supplemental schedules, other than that derived from the
information certified by the trustee, have been audited by us in accordance with auditing standards generally accepted in the United States of America and, in our opinion, are presented in compliance with the Department of Labor’s Rules and

PVH ASSOCIATES INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
For the Years Ended December 31, 2020 and 2019
1. Description of the Plan
The following description of the PVH Associates Investment Plan (the “Plan”) provides only general information. Participants should refer to the Plan Document for a more complete description of the
Plan’s provisions.
General
The Plan is a defined contribution plan covering salaried or hourly clerical, warehouse, distribution, and United States retail field employees of PVH Corp. (the “Company”) who are
at least age 21 or older, have completed the earlier of; at least three consecutive months of service and are regularly scheduled to work at least 20 hours per week; or have completed at least 1,000 hours of service during the first 12 months of
employment or in any subsequent calendar year. The Plan is subject to the reporting and disclosure requirements of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974 (“ERISA”).
Plan Amendments
During 2020, the Plan was amended to adopt several provisions of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (CARES) Act. The relief provisions allow eligible individuals to
receive coronavirus-related distributions, increase available loan amounts, defer loan repayments, suspend required minimum distributions and delay the commencement date for required minimum distributions. Distributions related to the CARES Act
during the year ended December 31, 2020 were $14,727,437.
The Company sold its Speedo North America (“Speedo”) business to the Pentland Group PLC (“Pentland”) on April 6, 2020. Upon the closing of the transaction, U.S.-based employees who
were engaged primarily in the Speedo North America business terminated their employment with the Company, became 100% vested in the Plan and any of their investments in the PVH stock fund were transferred to other investment options. Effective with
the Speedo sale, the Plan was amended to include participating entities. The Company approved Pentland as a participating entity and effective April 6, 2020, the Plan includes the former Company employees affected by the sale who are now Pentland
employees as well as any new U.S.-based Pentland employees. Pentland employees in the Plan are subject to all of its terms, except that they cannot invest in the PVH stock investment option, which is reserved for Company employees.
Trustee and Recordkeeper
The Plan’s recordkeeper and trustee services are Empower Retirement and Great-West Trust Company, respectively.

PVH ASSOCIATES INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Participant Contributions
Participants may make pre-tax contributions and/or after-tax Roth contributions to the Plan through payroll deductions. Total contributions may not exceed the lesser of 75% percent
of the participant's pre-tax annual compensation or the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) allowed maximum of $19,500 and $19,000 for 2020 and 2019, respectively, plus an additional $6,500 and $6,000 for 2020 and 2019, respectively, for participants age
50 and over by the end of the plan year.
Employer Contributions
The Company matches 100% of the first 1% of eligible compensation that a participant contributes to the Plan, plus 50% of the next 5% of eligible compensation contributed by the participant. To ensure
that participants receive the maximum Company match under the plan’s contribution provisions, effective for the 2019 plan year and forward, the Company makes an additional “true-up” contribution to all participant accounts who did not receive the
full match amount to which they are entitled. True-up contributions are included in employer contributions receivable and are made in the following plan year prior to the tax filing date. The true-up contribution due to the Plan at December 31, 2020
and December 31, 2019 was $619,687 and $851,680, respectively.
Participant Accounts
Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s contributions and allocations of (a) the Company’s contributions and (b) Plan earnings. Forfeited balances of
terminated participants’ non-vested accounts are used to reduce future Company contributions.
Vesting
Amounts attributable to participant contributions and the allocated earnings thereon are immediately vested. All participants become 100% vested in Company contributions and the
allocated earnings thereon after two years of service. Upon death, permanent disability, or reaching age 65, participants or their beneficiaries become 100% vested in Company contributions.
Investment Options
Upon enrollment in the Plan, a participant may direct employee or Company contributions into any of the various investment options. Participants, with the exception of Pentland
employees, may contribute a maximum of 25% of contributions in PVH Corp. common stock.
6
PVH ASSOCIATES INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Notes Receivable from Participants
Participants may borrow from the Plan, with certain restrictions, using their vested account balance as collateral. The minimum loan amount is $1,000 and the maximum loan amount is
the lesser of (i) $50,000 reduced by the participant’s highest outstanding loan balance during the previous 12 months, or (ii) 50% of the vested value of the participant’s account. Interest is fixed for the term of the loan at the prime rate plus 1%.
Loan repayments are made through payroll deductions, which may be specified for a term of 1 to 5 years or up to 15 years for the purchase of a primary residence. Upon termination of employment, a participant is given 90 days to repay the loan in
full or to establish loan repayments through an ACH debit origination before it is considered to be in default. Delinquent loans are considered to be distributions based on the terms of the Plan document. Notes receivable from participants are
measured as the unpaid principal balance plus any accrued but unpaid interest.
At December 31, 2020, outstanding notes receivable from participants totaled $10,753,742, with maturity dates through 2035 at interest rates ranging from 4.25% to 8.75%.
Forfeitures
Company contributions made on behalf of non-vested or partially vested employees who have terminated are retained by the Plan and are used to reduce the Company’s future matching
contributions. In 2020 and 2019, forfeitures of $359,300 and $327,813, respectively, were used by the Plan to reduce the Company’s matching contributions. At December 31, 2020 and 2019, cumulative forfeited non-vested accounts totaled $612,923 and
$492,913, respectively.
Payment of Benefits
Participants electing final distributions will receive payment in the form of a lump sum amount or installment payments equal to the value of their vested account unless the
participant notifies the Company of their intent to receive all or a portion of their investment balance in PVH Corp. common stock in the form of shares.
Plan Termination
Although it has not expressed any intent to do so, the Company has the right under the Plan to discontinue its contributions at any time and to terminate the Plan subject to the
provisions of ERISA. In the event of Plan termination, participants will become 100% vested in their accounts.

2. Significant Accounting
Policies
Basis of Accounting
The accompanying financial statements of the Plan were prepared using the accrual basis of accounting.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Plan administrator
to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities therein, and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities. Accordingly, actual results may differ from those estimates.
Administrative Expenses
In general, costs and expenses of administering the Plan are paid and absorbed by the Plan or the Plan Sponsor. The Plan's administrative expenses may be paid for through offsets
and/or payments associated with one or more of the Plan's investment options. Investment management or related fees associated with certain investment fund options are paid by participants.
Investments
Investments are recorded in the accompanying financial statements at fair value. Purchases and sales of securities are reflected on a settlement date basis. All assets of the Plan
are held by the Trustee and are segregated from the assets of the Company.
Recent Accounting Guidance
In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Disclosure Framework—Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement. The
objective of this guidance is to improve the effectiveness of disclosure for fair value measurements by adding, eliminating and modifying certain disclosure requirements. The ASU should be applied retrospectively and is effective for fiscal years
beginning after December 15, 2019, and interim periods within those fiscal years. Early adoption is permitted. The Plan early adopted this standard in 2018 and adoption had no impact on the Plan financial statements.
Reclassifications
Certain amounts from 2019 financial statements have been reclassified in order to conform to the 2020 presentation.

PVH ASSOCIATES INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
3. Party-In-Interest
Transactions
During the year ended December 31, 2020, the Plan purchased 24,536 and sold 52,284 shares of the Company’s common stock and received $15,722 during 2020 from the Company as payment
of dividends on its common stock. During the year ended December 31, 2019, the Plan purchased 18,443 and sold 25,557 shares of the Company’s common stock and received $62,320 from the Company as payment of dividends on its common stock. Certain
legal and accounting fees, and administrative expenses relating to the maintenance of participant eligibility records are paid by the company participating in the plan, and accordingly, are not included in the financial statements of the Plan.
4. Fair Value Measurements
The FASB defines fair value as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in the principal or most advantageous market in an orderly
transaction between market participants at the measurement date. The guidance establishes a three level fair value hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used to measure fair value. The three levels of the hierarchy are defined as follows:
Level 1 – Inputs are unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities that the Plan has the ability to access at the measurement date.
Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, including quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets, quoted prices for similar
assets or liabilities in active markets, inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability, and inputs derived principally from or corroborated by observable market data.
Level 3 – Unobservable inputs reflecting the Plan’s own assumptions about the inputs that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability based on the best
information available.
If the inputs used to measure the financial instruments fall within different levels of the hierarchy, the categorization is based on the lowest level input that is significant to
the fair value measurement of the instrument.

PVH ASSOCIATES INVESTMENT PLAN
NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
5. Risks and Uncertainties
The Plan invests in various investment securities. Investment securities are exposed to various risks such as interest rate, market and credit risks. Due to the level of risk
associated with certain investment securities, it is at least reasonably possible that changes in the values of investment securities will occur in the near term and that such changes could materially affect participants’ account balances and the
amount reported in the Statements of Net Assets Available for Benefits.
6. Income Tax Status
The IRS has determined and informed the Company by a letter dated April 25, 2017, that the Plan and related trust are designed in accordance with the applicable sections of the Internal Revenue Code
(“IRC”) and, therefore, the related trust is exempt from taxation. Once qualified, the Plan is required to operate in conformity with the IRC to maintain its qualification. The Plan Administrator believes that the Plan is currently designed and is
currently being operated in compliance with the applicable requirements of the IRC and therefore believes that the Plan is qualified and the related trust is tax-exempt.
