Birkenstock Holding plc has called its 2026 annual general meeting for 12:00 p.m. BST on April 29, 2026 in Jersey and outlined the items shareholders will vote on.
Ordinary resolutions cover receiving the annual report for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2025, re-appointing three Class III directors (Alexandre Arnault, Ruth Kennedy and CEO Oliver Reichert), and re-appointing EY as auditor. A special resolution proposes amending the articles so that a quorum requires at least two shareholders present representing at least one-third of voting rights.

Birkenstock Holding plc reaffirmed its financial guidance for fiscal year 2026, ending September 30, 2026. The company continues to expect constant-currency revenue growth of 13–15%, translating into reported revenue of EUR 2.30–2.35 billion, or 10–12% growth after currency headwinds.
Guidance includes an adjusted gross profit margin of 57.0–57.5% and adjusted EBITDA of at least EUR 700 million, implying a 30.0–30.5% adjusted EBITDA margin. Adjusted EPS is projected at EUR 1.90–2.05, with an effective tax rate of 26–28% and capital expenditures of EUR 110–130 million.
The company plans to repurchase shares for total consideration of USD 200 million during fiscal 2026, subject to market conditions, and is targeting a net leverage ratio of 1.3–1.4x at September 30, 2026, excluding potential share repurchases. Birkenstock also expects to open about 40 new own-retail stores globally in fiscal 2026.
Birkenstock Holding plc delivered strong fiscal first quarter 2026 results, with revenue of EUR 402 million, up 11.1% on a reported basis and 17.8% in constant currency, ahead of its full-year constant-currency growth target of 13-15%.
Net profit rose to EUR 50.6 million, up 151% year-over-year, and EPS increased to EUR 0.27 from EUR 0.11. Adjusted net profit reached EUR 49.0 million, up 47%, while adjusted EBITDA was EUR 106.4 million, up 4%, with a margin of 26.5% versus 28.2% a year earlier.
Growth was broad-based, with constant-currency revenue up 14% in the Americas, 17% in EMEA and 37% in APAC, and B2B revenue up 24% in constant currency. Gross margin declined to 55.7% from 60.3%, mainly due to adverse currency effects, higher U.S. tariffs and acquisition-related mark-ups.
The company continued investing for growth, with around EUR 38 million of capital expenditures, including about EUR 18 million for a new site in Wittichenau. It ended the quarter with EUR 229 million in cash and net leverage of 1.7x, slightly higher than 1.5x at September 30, 2025.
Birkenstock Holding plc delivered solid growth for the three months ended December 31, 2025. Revenue reached €401.9 million, up 11% reported and 18% in constant currency, with broad-based gains across Americas, EMEA and APAC and particularly strong B2B growth.
Gross margin declined to 55.7% from 60.3%, mainly from unfavorable currency translation, incremental U.S. tariffs and the impact of consolidating Birkenstock Australia, partly offset by price increases and better factory utilization. Net profit jumped to €50.6 million versus €20.1 million, with EPS rising to €0.27.
Adjusted EBITDA was €106.4 million, up modestly year over year, but margin slipped to 26.5% as tariffs and FX reduced profitability by several hundred basis points. The company completed the acquisition of Birkenstock Australia, recorded a €12.3 million bargain purchase gain, increased inventories, generated negative operating cash flow and ended with net debt of about €1.11 billion, or 1.7x last-twelve-month adjusted EBITDA.
