In his new role, Miller will advise G-III on a range of corporate strategy questions and will also support the transition of his day-to-day responsibilities. He will continue to report to the group’s chairman and CEO, Morris Goldfarb.
 
Miller has spent over two decades at G-III and has served as COO since December 2003. His other roles at the company have included chief financial officer, a position he occupied from April 1998 to September 2005, treasurer and secretary. His successor as COO has yet to be announced.

“On behalf of our board and global team, I want to sincerely thank Wayne for his 23 years of dedication, leadership and significant contributions in helping build G-III into the exceptional company that it is today,” said Goldfarb in a release. “Wayne has been instrumental in the acquisition and development of many of the businesses we currently have. I am pleased that Wayne will stay on as a key strategic advisor and continue to assist us in charting our path towards success and prosperity.”
 
Following a 35% decline in annual revenues totaling $2.06 billion in 2020, G-III posted a 28.3% rise in its first-quarter sales, which came to $519.9 million, earlier this month. The company’s Q1 earnings were $26.3 million, or $0.53 per diluted share.
 
Looking forward, the group expects to report annual revenues of approximately $2.57 billion in 2021, while net income is expected to be in the range of $125 million to $135 million, or $2.60 to $2.70 per diluted share.
