Revenue: $1.662 billion (+10.4% year-over-year, estimate $1.649 billion) ✅ Beat

EPS: Adjusted $1.72 (estimate $1.72) In line — GAAP $2.78 includes one-time items

Positives

Growth across all brands: Retail comparable sales +6.2%, FP Group +10.0%

Nuuly's strong growth: Subscription revenue +28.6%, average active subscribers +30.4%

Eighth consecutive record: Highest-ever quarterly adjusted profit in company history

Customer response to the fashion assortment combined with double-digit growth in wholesale and subscriptions drove results. Core operating momentum across the brand portfolio continued.

Negatives

Adjusted profit in line: Adjusted EPS matched the estimate exactly

Optical boost from one-time items: Tariff refunds and similar items inflated GAAP earnings

Inventory and markdown pressure: Inventory +11.8, with increased markdowns concentrated at Anthropologie

The market appears to have stripped out one-time items and focused solely on the core numbers. Signals of margin pressure also came through.

What Management Said

Management pointed to comparable sales growth across all brands and double-digit growth in wholesale and subscriptions to express confidence in continued expansion. With no next-quarter or full-year numerical guidance provided, the market was left to size up that confidence on its own.

Market Reaction and What to Watch Next

Adjusted EPS coming in line with estimates, combined with the fact that a significant portion of the strong GAAP results was one-time in nature, was read as a selling catalyst.

Monitor whether next quarter's adjusted gross margin absorbs markdown and tariff pressure.

Watch whether Nuuly's average active subscriber growth pace is sustained.

Check whether the markdown intensity at Anthropologie eases.
