Outlook
The Company today updated its outlook for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027 and provided its outlook for the third quarter ending October 31, 2026. The Company’s updated guidance assumes that tariffs for the remainder of the year will approximate current rates.
The Company’s outlook does not include any impact related to the Marc Jacobs acquisition, and it expects to provide more specific guidance when it reports third quarter earnings. The Company believes the acquisition will be slightly dilutive in fiscal 2027.
As previously disclosed, the transaction is expected to be dilutive during the first 12 months after closing, with accretion expected thereafter.
Fiscal 2027
Net sales for fiscal 2027 are expected to be approximately $2.71 billion, which incorporates the loss of approximately $460 million of sales from Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger products. This compares to net sales of $2.96 billion for fiscal 2026.
Net income is expected to be between $181.0 million and $185.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $4.10 and $4.20. This compares to net income of $67.4 million, or $1.51 per diluted share for fiscal 2026.
Non-GAAP net income is expected to be between $97.0 million and $101.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $2.20 and $2.30. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $116.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.61 for fiscal 2026.
