“We delivered net revenue of $812 million in the second quarter of Fiscal 2026, a 32% increase compared to last year. Comparable sales grew 22%, with double-digit growth in all channels and all geographies, led by our United States eCommerce business. Our performance was fueled by robust demand for our high-quality beautiful products, including an outstanding response to our Fall launch, as well as our strong inventory position, strategic marketing investments and new boutique openings. Exceptional strength in the United States continued to drive our results, as net revenue increased 41%, underscoring the growing awareness of the Aritzia brand and affinity for Everyday Luxury,” said Jennifer Wong, Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we generated meaningful gross profit margin expansion and SG&A leverage, resulting in growth in adjusted net income per diluted share of over 180%.”

“Our broad-based momentum has continued into the third quarter of Fiscal 2026, driven by the ongoing positive response to our product and strong execution across our three strategic growth levers – geographic expansion, digital growth and increased brand awareness. We remain agile as we navigate tariff-related developments from a position of strength. The momentum in our business, our proven operating model and our healthy balance sheet give us confidence in our path forward as we capitalize on our vast opportunity for growth in the United States and beyond.”
