The fourth quarter of the 2025 financial year was “a mixture of growth and challenges for Guess Inc.,” said the American fashion group on Thursday evening. With the announcement of the current results, Guess also announced the appointment of Alberto Toni as the new Chief Financial Officer.
The net turnover in the fourth quarter, which ended on February 1, was $ 932.25 million, which corresponds to an increase of five percent. Meanwhile, the currency -adjusted net turnover increased by nine percent. The growth of sales was largely influenced by the takeover of RAG & Bone, the positive development in the European and American wholesale business as well as the increased license revenue. However, the crisis on the Red Sea and the pressure to inflate had an impact on the results. The net profit of $ 81.4 million means a decline of 29 percent compared to the previous year. The company’s consolidated currency surplus was $ 77.70 million, a decrease of 30 percent.
In the entire financial year 2025, Guess achieved a increase in sales from eight percent to $ 3 billion. Current -adjusted net sales increased by 10 percent. The profit was $ 60.4 million, which corresponds to a decline of 70 percent compared to the previous year. This attributes Guess to a “unrealized loss” of $ 60.7 million “due to the change in the usable time value in connection with the company’s mandatory bonds with due due date 2028 and the associated security transactions for mandals”, according to Los Angeles. The adjusted profit was $ 104.5 million, a decrease of 40 percent compared to $ 174.0 million in the 2024 financial year.
Guess optimistic for future growth
For the first quarter of the 2026 financial year, the company predicts consolidated net sales growth in US dollars between $ 5.8 percent and $ 7.5 percent. For the 2026 financial year, Guess expects between 3.9 percent and 6.2 percent in US dollars with an increase in sales.
“With a view to the 2026 financial year, we look forward to the growth opportunities for our core business Guess, our recently introduced Guess Jeans brand and our newly acquired company RAG & Bone,” said CEO Carlos Alberini. “We focus on our strategic initiatives to increase the productivity of direct sales worldwide and to improve profitability through business and portfolio optimization.”
