US footwear and apparel retail earnings trends

Overview

Recent quarterly reports from major footwear and apparel retailers indicate a trend of missing revenue expectations despite varying impacts on earnings guidance.

Deckers Brands reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 revenue of $1.481 billion, which fell short of the $1.51 billion anticipated by analysts. While the company reduced its annual sales forecast, it raised its full-year earnings guidance to a range of $7.80 to $7.95 per diluted share, aided by approximately 52 cents per share from tariff refunds. Performance was mixed across brands, with HOKA and UGG seeing sales growth, while direct-to-consumer sales declined.

Similarly, Boot Barn missed analysts' revenue expectations for its second quarter, despite a 15.1 percent increase in net sales to $581.8 million. Unlike Deckers, Boot Barn lowered its full-year fiscal 2027 sales guidance following the miss. However, the retailer exceeded earnings expectations, reporting a net income of $52.5 million compared to $42.2 million in the previous year.
