G-III Apparel Group (NASDAQ:GIII) reported second quarter fiscal 2026 results on September 4, 2025, with net sales of $613 million, GAAP diluted EPS of $0.25, and healthy growth from core owned brands despite headwinds from expiring licenses and elevated tariff costs. Management issued updated full-year guidance of $3.02 billion in net sales and non-GAAP diluted EPS of $2.55 to $2.75, reflecting a 5% year-over-year sales decline driven by license exits and $75 million in unmitigated tariff impacts.Gross margin declined 230 basis points year-over-year (YoY) to 40.8%, attributed to an accelerated flow of tariff-impacted inventory and unfavorable product mix, with wholesale margins at 38.9% and retail at 52.4%.
