AI brief of an SEC Form 8-K · G-III Apparel Group (GIII)

G-III Q2 net sales fell 10% to $554.1 million; GAAP EPS rose to $0.46

Mixed Impact 4 of 5 m&a Written later

G-III reported second-quarter fiscal 2027 net sales down 10% to $554.1 million, while GAAP diluted earnings per share rose to $0.46 from $0.25, helped by a 440 basis point gain in gross margin. The company said it raised its fiscal 2027 net income guidance excluding Marc Jacobs, which it completed on September 1, 2026, and expects the acquisition to be slightly dilutive in fiscal 2027. Shareholders face a lower sales and earnings outlook than fiscal 2026 on the company's own figures, offset in part by margin gains and the addition of a brand the company targets for $1 billion in long-term annual revenue.

Key points

  • Second-quarter net sales fell 10% to $554.1 million from $613.3 million; gross margin rose to 45.2% from 40.8%.
  • Second-quarter GAAP diluted EPS was $0.46 vs. $0.25; non-GAAP diluted EPS was $0.26 vs. $0.25.
  • Fiscal 2027 guidance excluding Marc Jacobs: net sales of about $2.71 billion vs. $2.96 billion in fiscal 2026; non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.20 to $2.30 vs. $2.61.
  • Marc Jacobs acquisition closed September 1, 2026; G-III owns 50% of the joint venture that holds the brand's intellectual property with WHP Global.
