Opinion on the Financial Statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheet of Genesco Inc. and subsidiaries (the "Company") as of January 31, 2026, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss), cash flows, and equity for the year ended January 31, 2026, and the related notes and the financial statement schedule 2 - Valuation and Qualifying Accounts (collectively referred to as the "financial statements"). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of January 31, 2026, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for the year ended January 31, 2026, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We have also audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (PCAOB), the Company's internal control over financial reporting as of January 31, 2026, based on criteria established in Internal Control-Integrated Framework (2013) issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission and our report dated March 25, 2026, expressed an unqualified opinion on the Company's internal control over financial reporting.
