AEO announces Q3 2025 results via press release, a routine earnings update.

American Eagle Outfitters released its financial results for the third quarter ended November 1, 2025 through an accompanying press release listed as Exhibit 99.1. The update is presented under the Results of Operations and Financial Condition disclosure item, which is the standard channel for quarterly earnings communications.

The company emphasizes that the furnished information, including the exhibit, is not deemed filed under Section 18 and is only incorporated into other documents if explicitly referenced. It also includes the usual forward‑looking statement caution, tying risk factors back to the Form 10‑K for the year ended February 1, 2025 and later Form 10‑Qs available on the SEC’s site.

From an investor perspective, this event represents a normal quarterly reporting step rather than a structural change. Any assessment of performance would depend on the specific figures and guidance contained in Exhibit 99.1, which are not detailed in this summary.
