Columbia posted Q2 net sales of $605 million, up 6% year-over-year, with gross margin expanding to 49.1% and a loss per share of $0.19. International markets (EMEA and LAAP) delivered double-digit growth led by China, Japan and Europe, while U.S. wholesale and DTC softened. Management estimates a $35–$40 million tariff-related hit in 2025 and says it will absorb much of the cost this year while pursuing price, vendor and cost-efficiency mitigations. Full-year net sales are guided to $3.3–$3.4 billion (down ~1% to flat) with Q3 sales expected to decline 1–3% and EPS of $1.00–$1.20, and the company has implemented sustained cost-savings actions exceeding $70 million year-to-date. Inventory composition is described as healthy after earlier-than-planned fall receipts to mitigate tariff risk. » Mais em finance.yahoo.com

Columbia Sportswear reported Q1 2026 EPS of $0.65 (expectation $0.34) and revenue of $779.0 million (expectation $756.2 million). International markets offset a 10% decline in US sales, while additional US tariffs weighed on results (approximately $80 million paid). The company holds cash of $535.4 million, repurchased 2.5 million shares for $150 million, and raised its full‑year EPS guidance. For Q2 Columbia expects a slight revenue decline of up to -1% and continued operational pressure from tariffs and SG&A effects. » Mais em de.investing.com
