The retailer earned $1.47 per diluted share, clearing the $1.27 consensus estimate by 15.71%, though that figure still trailed the $1.59 recorded in the year-ago period. Net sales of $1.11 billion rose 1.5% year over year, coming in just 0.73% below what analysts had expected, with EMEA emerging as the primary drag; the region tumbled 10% to $167.37 million as escalating Middle East conflict weighed heavily on Hollister brands and pushed comparable sales down 11%. Americas held steadier, growing 3% to $899.94 million, while APAC surged 24% to $46.50 million. With tariff headwinds now revised down to roughly 20 basis points for the full year, from a prior 70-basis-point estimate, management maintained its full-year outlook for 3% to 5% net sales growth and earnings per share of $10.20 to $11.00, signaling confidence despite ongoing macro pressure on discretionary spending.
Key Takeaways
- • Continued growth in the Americas segment, led by Abercrombie Brands
- • Strong APAC growth of 24% with 15% comparable sales growth
- • 14th consecutive quarter of net sales growth
- • Discipline in operating margin and earnings per diluted share exceeding outlook

“We delivered record first quarter net sales and our 14th consecutive quarter of growth, reflecting our teams' consistent execution for our customers amid a dynamic global environment. Results were driven by continued growth in the Americas, led by Abercrombie Brands, along with strong growth in APAC. In EMEA, demand softened as the Middle East conflict ramped up, particularly impacting Hollister Brands, and we are proactively managing inventory and marketing to support the region. Our bottom-line results reflect discipline and consistency, with both operating margin and earnings per diluted share exceeding our outlook.”
