Canada Goose posts lower-than-expected earnings in Q1
The U.S.-listed shares of the Canadian company fell approximately 3% in premarket trading. Despite the drop, the stock has gained about 27% so far this year.
The company attributed the higher expenses to the expansion of its global retail network and increased marketing spend, particularly in connection with its Spring/Summer 2025 and Snow Goose campaigns.
On an adjusted basis, Canada Goose posted a loss of 91 Canadian cents per share in the first quarter, compared with analysts' average estimate of 88 Canadian cents, according to data compiled by LSEG.
Quarterly revenue rose to C$107.8 million ($77.86 million), up from C$88.1 million a year earlier. Analysts had expected a 5.36% rise to C$92.8 million.
In May, the company withheld its fiscal 2026 forecast due to uncertainty related to tariffs.

Despite tough talk, most Canadian, Mexican goods dodge Trump tariffs
US President Donald Trump raised the tariffs on Canadian products to 35% last week but a key exemption for Canada and Mexico shields the vast majority of goods from the punishing duties. Goods that comply with the 2020 United States-Mexico-Canada Agreement (USMCA) that Trump negotiated during his first term are excluded from the tariffs. The USMCA, which replaced NAFTA in 2020 as the key North American trade agreement, is a comprehensive trade deal designed to dictate the flow of goods and services, strengthen labour and environmental standards, enhance intellectual property and digital trade protections, and set up dispute resolution mechanisms between the three countries. Trump's executive orders setting up tariffs for Canada and Mexico recognise the USMCA, which means that most goods traded between the US, Mexico and Canada continue to be tariff-free, provided they meet rules of origin. According to these rules, certain goods must be either entirely made in Canada or Mexico — not imported from third countries such as the EU and then resold to the US — or have the majority of their composite parts made in one of the two countries. Most Canadian exports reach the US duty-free Canada's central bank says 100% of energy exports and 95% of other exports are compliant with the trade pact. The Royal Bank estimated that almost 90% of Canadian exports appear to have accessed the US market duty-free in April. Canadian Prime Minister Mark Carney said the commitment of the US to the core of the USMCA, reaffirmed again last week, means the average US tariff rate on Canadian goods remains one of its lowest, and over 85% of Canada-US trade continues to be tariff-free. 'Canada is better off than any of the trading partners right now because the Americans appear to be relying as a default on USMCA,' said Flavio Volpe, president of the Automotive Parts Manufacturers' Association. 'That gives them the tough tariff headline but also allows them the access to the stuff they need from us. Because of that we're in a relative better position.' Canadian and Mexican companies can claim preferential treatment under the USMCA based on where the products are made. 'The headline news is 35% tariffs but it's somewhat targeted,' said John Manley, Canada's former industry minister, finance minister, foreign affairs minister and deputy prime minister. Meaning that while a 35% tariff rate on the US' main trading partners is a major deterioration in their economic relationship and weakens what was largely a free trade space between the three countries, only specific industries will be affected. Manley said Canada is doing okay despite the economic uncertainty. 'There is a lot of resilience I'd say. The Canadian economy has done relatively well, better than most of us expected, and remember that there is no tariffs on any of our energy exports," he said. 25% tariffs on Mexican goods target a small slice of trade Trump said last week he would enter into a 90-day negotiating period with Mexico, also one of America's largest trading partners. The current 25% tariff rates are staying in place, down from the 30% he had threatened earlier. But that 25% only applies to the fraction of Mexico's trade with the US that isn't covered by the USMCA. Shortly after speaking with Trump on Thursday, President Claudia Sheinbaum said that within the 'new commercial world order', Mexico was still the best-positioned nation because of the free trade agreement. 'What's within [the USMCA] has no tariff, with the exception of what we already know: autos, steel and aluminium; and what is outside the treaty has 25%,' Sheinbaum said. But Economy Secretary Marcelo Ebrard pointed out that under the USMCA, no tariffs were paid on more than 84% of Mexico's trade with the United States. Most imports from Canada and Mexico are still protected by the USMCA, but the deal is up for review next year. US Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick said last month that he believes 'the president is absolutely going to renegotiate USMCA". Preserving the free trade pact will be critical for Canada and Mexico. 'It would be an incredible disruption to lose it especially if you lost it to the levels of tariffs Trump is imposing, 30%, 25% or even 20%. You can absorb a single digit tariff level across the board but you can't adjust that kind of increase,' Manley said. More than 75% of Canada's exports go to the US while more than 80% of Mexico's exports go there. Manley said that depending on how the trade war plays out, the risk to the USMCA is very high. 'Uncertainty in business is the enemy of decision making," he said. Charging for access Carney said in a series of recent agreements with other countries that America is, in effect, charging for access to its economy. Manley said the investment thesis for Canada is pretty straightforward as Canada is rich in natural resources, has a skilled labour force, is open to immigration and has unfettered access to the US market, the largest economy in the world. 'If that latter point is no longer the case, we've still got all the others, but we've got to really redevelop the investment thesis for attracting investment to Canada,' Manley said. Trump has some sector-specific tariffs, known as 232 tariffs, that are having an impact. There is a 50% tariff on steel and aluminium imports and a 25% tariff on auto imports, though there is a carve-out for Canadian and Mexican made cars. 'Despite our advantages, certain major Canadian industries are being severely impacted by US trade actions. These strategic sectors include autos, steel, aluminium, copper, pharmaceuticals, semiconductors, and of course, softwood lumber,' Carney said on Tuesday as he announced an aid package for the lumber industry as the US ratches up duties. 'It is clear we cannot count or fully rely on what has been our most valued trading relationship for our prosperity,' he concluded.

Zalando's Q2 GMV and revenue rise, e-tailer ups guidance after About You buy
That was helped by continued investment in customer experience and it expects this week's launch of its AI-driven discovery feed that it says will 'deliver even more personalised inspiration and boost organic customer engagement' to help it further in Q3. B2C growth in the second quarter was also supported by strong progress in its two other growth pillars, which are 'differentiation through quality and lifestyle expansion'. Its upgraded loyalty programme reached more than 10 million customers at the end of the quarter as it rolled out to more markets. It also delivered 'over proportional growth' in its Lounge, Designer, and Beauty propositions, 'making progress on building out more areas that address more lifestyle needs of customers, thus enabling Zalando to capture a higher share of customers' wallets'. Meanwhile Business-to-Business (B2B) maintained 'strong momentum, driven by double-digit growth in ZEOS Fulfilment'. The launch of a new Shopify application that connects Shopify merchants directly to the ZEOS platform was also key. B2B revenues increased 12.2% to €262 million. Adjusted EBIT was €11 million, with the margin increasing by 1.3 percentage points to 4.3%. And there's plenty of potential for this to rise. UK retailer Next is now leveraging Zalando's fulfilment infrastructure for its largest mainland Europe market, Germany, after already using ZFS for the majority of its Zalando-based business. In the second half, it will expand the collaboration to include its own webshop and additional European marketplace business. Finally, following the About You acquisition in July, the company has issued its first full-year 2025 guidance for the combined group. It expects annual GMV of €17.2 billion-€17.6 billion, revenue of €12.1 billion-€12.4 billion, and adjusted EBIT of €550 million-€600 million. Forecast GMV volumes up by 12%-15% will be a big step forward from the previously expected range of 4%-9%.
