Driven by strong momentum in Asia, Ralph Lauren closed its fiscal year 2025-2026 with results that exceeded analysts’ forecasts, even posting record revenue.
The American group Ralph Lauren closed its fiscal year with results exceeding analysts’ forecasts : the strength of Ralph Lauren’s strategy of moving upmarket and expanding internationally has paid off. For the group’s full fiscal year, sales jumped 15% to reach $8.11 billion, compared to $7.08 billion a year earlier.
This growth allows the American brand to cross the symbolic threshold of $8 billion in annual revenue for the first time. CEO Patrice Louvet hailed “a solid first year” of the “Next Great Chapter: Drive” strategic plan, noting that growth was balanced across product categories, regions, and distribution channels.
Similarly, the fourth quarter ended March 2026 saw revenue increase by 17% on a reported basis to $1.98 billion, and by 12% on a constant-currency basis.
Significantly improved profitability
Ralph Lauren also improved its profitability in the fourth quarter, with net income reaching $151.6 million, or $2.45 per share, compared to $129 million and $2.03 per share a year earlier. On an adjusted basis, earnings per share came in at $2.80, exceeding market expectations.
