H&M reports drop in quarterly net sales despite growth in local currencies

New Delhi: Swedish fashion giant H&M on Thursday posted weaker results for its quarter ending May 31 (Q2), with net sales falling to SEK (Swedish Krona) 56,714 million from SEK 59,605 million in the same period a year earlier. The decline was primarily due to currency translation effects, as a stronger Swedish krona impacted earnings despite a modest 1 per cent growth in sales in local currencies. According to H&M, the negative currency impact shaved off around 6 percentage points from reported net sales. The company also operated with 4 per cent fewer stores compared to the same period previous year. However, excluding those closures, local currency sales rose by 3 per cent. H&M's gross profit for the quarter stood at SEK 31,425 million, down from SEK 33,569 million previous year. The gross margin slipped to 55.4 per cent from 56.3 per cent. The company attributed this decline to higher purchasing costs, mainly driven by a stronger US dollar and increased freight charges. Investments in improving the customer experience also added to the cost pressure. However, the company expects these external cost factors to turn favourable in the second half of the year. Operating profit fell to SEK 5,914 million from SEK 7,098 million, reducing the operating margin to 10.4 per cent from 11.9 per cent. After-tax profit came in at SEK 3,962 million, compared to SEK 5,064 million in the same quarter previous year. Earnings per share declined to SEK 2.48 from SEK 3.15. Cash flow from operating activities also dropped, coming in at SEK 8,528 million versus SEK 12,600 million in the year-ago quarter. The company's cash and undrawn credit facilities stood at SEK 35,828 million, down from SEK 42,572 million. For the full half-year period (December 1, 2024 -- May 31, 2025), net sales in local currencies rose by 1 per cent, but again fell when converted to SEK -- dropping to SEK 112,047 million from SEK 113,274 million. The company's gross profit for the half-year came in at SEK 58,594 million, down from SEK 61,224 million, with the gross margin falling to 52.3 per cent from 54.0 per cent. The operating profit for the first six months declined to SEK 7,117 million, compared to SEK 9,175 million a year ago. The result after tax fell to SEK 4,541 million from SEK 6,295 million. Cash flow 0from operating profit stood at SEK 12,729 million, down from SEK 16,567 million. Looking ahead, H&M expects its sales in June 2025 to rise by 3 per cent in local currencies, though the company noted that calendar differences will slightly reduce this growth. In a positive development, environmental group rated H&M as the top company in the fashion sector for its efforts to reduce fossil fuel use. The company is also preparing to enter the Brazilian market, with new stores and online operations set to launch in the second half of 2025. Meanwhile, the board has decided to buy back up to 1.1 million of its own class B shares, for a maximum total of SEK 175 million. This buyback aims to support the company's long-term incentive program and adjust its capital structure. CEO Daniel Erver said that H&M's ongoing focus on its product range, shopping experience, and brand continues to show results. He added that improvements in online sales, womenswear, and the H&M Move segment, combined with cost control, will support profitable growth going forward.

Pakistani Goods Worth Rs 9 Crore Seized At Navi Mumbai Port

The Directorate of Revenue Intelligence (DRI) seized 39 containers carrying 1,115 metric tonnes of Pakistani goods valued at approximately Rs 9 crore at the Nhava Sheva Port in Navi Mumbai, officials said. In an operation codenamed "Operation Deep Manifest", the illegal import of Pakistani-origin goods routed through third countries, primarily via Dubai, UAE, has been busted, the Ministry of Finance said in a statement Thursday. The goods being shipped into India were in blatant violation of import policy conditions and prohibitions imposed by the government on direct or indirect import or transit of Pakistani-origin goods. The finance ministry said one of the partners of an importing firm was arrested on Thursday. Following the Pahalgam terror attacks, the government had imposed a comprehensive ban, effective May 2, 2025, on the direct or indirect import or transit of goods originating in or exported from Pakistan. Previously, such goods were subject to a 200 per cent customs duty. Despite these stringent measures, some importers attempt to bypass the government policy by misdeclaring the origin of goods and by manipulating the related shipping documents, the finance ministry said. "In two separate cases, these consignments were seized at Nhava Sheva port. The consignments were falsely declared as UAE-origin, masking their Pakistani origin. However, investigations revealed that these goods actually originated from Pakistan and were merely transshipped via Dubai for import into India," the Ministry of Finance statement read. Investigations revealed that the goods were initially transported from Pakistan to Dubai on one set of containers and vessels, and subsequently transferred to another set of containers and vessels bound for India. Further examination of goods and analysis of documents gathered during investigations conducted so far uncovered cargo movement trails from Karachi port, Pakistan, and transshipments at Jabel Ali port, Dubai - en route to Indian ports. Furthermore, money transfers/financial linkages with Pakistani entities were traced, raising serious concerns about illicit financial flows. "The entire modus operandi was orchestrated through a complex web of transactions involving Pakistani and UAE nationals, aimed at obscuring the true origin of the goods, namely Pakistan," the finance ministry added. In the context of "Operation Sindoor" and the prevailing heightened security environment, the DRI intensified its vigil through augmented intelligence gathering and data analytics to target consignments emanating from Pakistan.

Sule says Shaktipeeth will ruin state finances

Mumbai: A few days after the state cabinet approved the Rs 20,787 crore Nagpur-Goa Shaktipeeth highway, NCP (SP) working president Supriya Sule has stepped into the row over the project, saying the cash-starved state govt will not be able to afford the massive expenditure on the proposal. "State govt must give a serious thought to the huge expenditure on the project, particularly in view of the critical financial situation of the state. It will take several decades to restore the situation. It will have a massive impact on the Marathi people," Sule said. Sule referred to a series of reports in a section of the media, saying there is strong opposition to the project from all sections. "When our financial situation is very bad, still we are in the process of securing a loan of Rs 30,000 crore, with an interest of 8.85%, it is beyond the financial capacity of the state to afford such a high interest," Sule said.

Sule said it was found that elected representatives of almost all the political parties have opposed the land acquisition process. "We need infrastructure projects, but at the same time, govt should not impose such projects on the people. by Taboola by Taboola Sponsored Links Sponsored Links Promoted Links Promoted Links You May Like Doutor: Reverter encolhimento muscular após os 50 depende deste hábito noturno Revista do Homem Saiba Mais Undo If we accept the Shaktipeeth highway, there will be adverse impact on the financial situation of the state. Even the planning and finance departments have raised concern over the impact of the project on the financial situation of the project," Sule said. Sule asked why the govt is insisting on implementation of the project at a juncture when the local farmers have opposed it. "Farmers are not keen on the highway, if the project is implemented, it will have adverse impact on the financial situation of the state. People must examine the remarks of the finance and planning department," she said. MPCC president Harshawardhan Sapkal alleged that the Shaktipeeth highway is being planned and implemented at the behest of Delhi's elite, to benefit favoured industrialists. Sapkal said chief minister Devendra Fadnavis is pushing for the Shaktipeeth highway on orders from Delhi's power brokers. "A corridor is being planned from central India to Goa's port to help favoured industrialists export their raw materials abroad. This is a red-carpet project exclusively for them," Sapkal said. Sapkal said that while an allocation of Rs 20,000 crore has been made, the expenditure could go up to Rs 1.5 lakh crore and is a ploy for corrupt profiteering. "This is the beginning of pushing Maharashtra towards bankruptcy, since the debt burden has cross the mark of Rs 9.82 lakh crore," he said.
