Birkenstock Holding plc reported moderate growth but weaker margins for the quarter ended March 31, 2026. Revenue rose to €618.3 million, up 8% year over year, or 14% in constant currency, with double‑digit constant‑currency growth across all regions and both B2B and DTC channels.
Gross profit was €333.6 million, with gross margin falling to 53.9% from 57.7%, pressured by unfavorable currency translation, higher U.S. tariffs and the Birkenstock Australia acquisition mark‑up. Adjusted EBITDA slipped 1% to €198.3 million, and the margin declined to 32.1% from 34.8%.
Net profit decreased to €81.9 million and basic EPS to €0.45, both down over 20%, while adjusted net profit fell 10% to €92.6 million. Management highlights ongoing FX and tariff headwinds, geopolitical impacts in EMEA, and continued investment, including the acquisition of Birkenstock Australia and expansion of production and retail capacity.
Birkenstock Holding plc reported mixed fiscal Q2 2026 results. Revenue rose to EUR 618 million, up 8% on a reported basis and 14% in constant currency, with double‑digit constant currency growth across all regions and both B2B and direct-to-consumer channels.
