In a remarkable financial update, Guess Inc. has unveiled impressive Q3 results, reporting a 3% surge in net revenue, reaching $651.2 million. This stellar performance is credited to a significant boost in Europe, effectively counterbalancing a dip in the Americas division and steady sales in Asia.
Headquartered in Los Angeles, Guess witnessed a substantial 5% increase in Europe’s revenues in constant currency, with retail comparable sales, including e-commerce, soaring by 7%. Despite challenges in Asia, where revenues remained flat in constant currency due to a 9% decline, Guess showcased resilience. The Americas, while facing an 8% decline in retail revenues and a 5% drop in retail comparable sales, demonstrated the company’s ability to navigate fluctuations.
Guess’s financial strength shines through as net earnings skyrocketed to $55.7 million, marking a remarkable 155% increase from the same quarter last year.
Carlos Alberini, Chief Executive Officer, expressed satisfaction, stating, «We are pleased with our third-quarter financial results, in line with our guidance for revenue growth and exceeding expectations for operating profit performance.» Alberini emphasized effective cost management and strong gross margin, resulting in GAAP and adjusted operating margins of 8.4% and 8.9%, respectively, surpassing expectations for the quarter.
This financial triumph positions Guess Inc. as a formidable player in the fashion industry, navigating challenges with strategic agility. As the company continues to evolve, the Q3 performance underscores its commitment to financial excellence and resilience in a dynamic market landscape.
