Earnings Call Q2 2027
November 5, 2026 - AI Summary
Q2 delivered above expectations; raised FY outlook again (good/surprising)
- Revenue +10% (constant currency) and profitability ahead of plan.
- Adjusted gross margin +220 bps to 70.2%; AUR +9% and operating margin expanded +140 bps to 15.5%.
- Asia led: revenues +28%; North America +6%, Europe +3%.
- Management raised full-year FY2027 constant-currency revenue growth outlook to mid–high single digits (~6–7%), from 5–6% previously.
Demand/brand momentum is the core driver (opportunity)
- Strategy: “Next Great Chapter: Drive” with pillars: (1) elevate lifestyle brand, (2) drive core & expand, (3) win in key cities via consumer ecosystem.
- Notable brand traction: +1.7M new customers in Q2 to DTC (led by Ralph Lauren stores); social followers +mid-single digits to >72M.
- Customer/resale value is emphasized: shift toward higher-quality, lower-price-sensitivity, younger cohorts; management says core consumer remains resilient globally.
Regional picture: Asia strong; Europe pressured but targeted actions ongoing (good + bad)
- Asia: retail comps +24%; China +35%+; Japan/Korea double-digit—supported by localized activations.
- North America: retail comps +6%; digital comps +5%; wholesale +8% with timing benefits (~4 pts)—but management expects moderation in H2 as it laps timing and continues off-price reduction / exit lower-tier doors.
- Europe: wholesale +4% but retail comps -1% after lapping an exceptionally strong prior year (~10% compare); traffic headwinds remain the main issue. Outlook still assumes positive growth, including slightly stronger Q3, without requiring an improvement in traffic/macro.
