V.F. Corporation (NYSE:VFC) shares are trading lower in the premarket session on Wednesday after the company reported fourth-quarter results.

The company reported quarterly adjusted earnings per share of 13 cents loss, beating the street view of 14 cents loss. Quarterly sales of $2.14 billion (down 5% year over year) missed the analyst consensus estimate of $2.18 billion.

Sales from the Vans unit dropped 22% year over year. The decline was in line with the previous quarter, partly due to strategic changes. Vans’ customer traffic in global direct-to-consumer (DTC) stores remained weak. While new product sales grew, they were outweighed by declines in core iconic items.
