Vince Holding raises fiscal 2026 outlook as Q2 net sales rise 11.7% to $81.8 million
Vince Holding reported second quarter 2026 net sales of $81.8 million, up 11.7% from a year earlier, and raised its full-year fiscal 2026 outlook for the Vince business. GAAP net income fell to $10.6 million, or $0.80 per diluted share, from $12.1 million, or $0.93, a year earlier, because the prior-year quarter included a $5.6 million employee retention credit benefit. The company also completed its OVO acquisition, which it says is outside the outlook.
