Aritzia Inc., a design house with an innovative global platform offering Everyday Luxury™ online and in its boutiques, announced on Thursday its financial results for the third quarter ended November 30, 2025.

“We delivered record net revenue of $1.04 billion in the third quarter of Fiscal 2026, a 43% increase compared to last year. Comparable sales grew 34%, with exceptional growth in all channels and all geographies. Our performance was fueled by unparalleled demand for our Everyday LuxuryTM offering. This was driven by our digital initiatives, which included the launch of our App, our new boutique openings and our strategic marketing investments. Our impressive growth in the United States continued as net revenue increased 54%, highlighting our expanding awareness and the tremendous momentum of the Aritzia brand,” said Jennifer Wong, Chief Executive Officer. “In addition, we continued to expand our margins and delivered a 55% increase in adjusted net income per diluted share.”

Excellent operational execution across our three strategic growth levers – geographic expansion, digital growth and increased brand awareness – is driving sustained brand momentum and keeping Aritzia top of mind. This momentum, along with our proven operating model and healthy balance sheet, gives us confidence in our long-term goals for the business and our ability to deliver profitable growth for our shareholders.”

Aritzia said it expects the following for Fiscal 2026:

  • Net revenue in the range of $3.615 billion to $3.640 billion, representing growth of approximately 33% from Fiscal 2025. This includes the contribution from retail expansion with 13 new boutiques and four boutique repositions.

  • Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net revenue to be approximately 16.5% to 17.0% compared to 14.8% in Fiscal 2025, driven by leverage on store occupancy costs, IMU improvements, lower warehousing costs and savings from the Company’s smart spending initiative and expense leverage, offset by approximately 280 bps of pressure from additional tariffs and the elimination of the de minimis exemption.
