Tariff gain lifts G-III (NASDAQ: GIII) Q1 profit as 2027 EPS guidance raised
Rhea-AI Filing Summary
G-III Apparel Group reported first-quarter fiscal 2027 results showing lower sales but sharply higher reported profit driven by a one-time tariff benefit. Net sales were $535.9 million, down 8% from $583.6 million, while GAAP net income jumped to $66.5 million, or $1.50 per diluted share, from $7.8 million, or $0.17 per share.
Results included a $102.7 million pre-tax benefit ($77.9 million after tax, or $1.75 per share) from the expected recovery of previously incurred IEEPA tariffs. Excluding this and other items, non-GAAP diluted earnings were a loss of $0.21 per share versus income of $0.19 a year ago. Cash rose to $394.2 million and inventories fell 8% to $417.9 million.
The company raised its fiscal 2027 GAAP earnings outlook, now expecting net sales of about $2.71 billion, net income of $171.0–$175.0 million, and diluted EPS of $3.85–$3.95, compared with $2.96 billion of sales and $1.51 of EPS in fiscal 2026. Guidance incorporates an expected $470 million sales reduction from expiring Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger licenses and excludes any impact from the pending Marc Jacobs acquisition. Non-GAAP EPS is expected to decline to $2.15–$2.25 from $2.61, and adjusted EBITDA to $178.0–$182.0 million from $192.4 million.
Positive
- Raised GAAP earnings outlook despite sales headwinds: Fiscal 2027 net income is now guided to $171.0–$175.0 million and diluted EPS to $3.85–$3.95, more than double fiscal 2026 GAAP EPS of $1.51, even as revenue is expected to decline from $2.96 billion to about $2.71 billion.
Negative
- Underlying profitability expected to soften: Fiscal 2027 non-GAAP diluted EPS is guided to $2.15–$2.25 versus $2.61 in fiscal 2026, and adjusted EBITDA to $178.0–$182.0 million versus $192.4 million, indicating lower core earnings power after portfolio changes and license expirations.
Insights
GAAP earnings surge on tariff refund while underlying profitability and sales trend remain pressured.
G-III delivered much stronger reported Q1 profit, with GAAP EPS of $1.50 versus $0.17 a year earlier, largely due to a one-time IEEPA tariff refund of $102.7M pre-tax. Net sales fell 8% to $535.9M, reflecting portfolio changes and softer demand.
On an underlying basis, performance weakened: non-GAAP diluted EPS swung to a loss of $0.21 from income of $0.19, and adjusted Q1 EBITDA turned negative $7.7M. For fiscal 2027, management raised GAAP EPS guidance to $3.85–$3.95, but expects non-GAAP EPS of $2.15–$2.25 and adjusted EBITDA of $178–$182M, both below fiscal 2026.
The outlook factors in about $470M of lost net sales from Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger licenses, taking expected revenue to $2.71B versus $2.96B in fiscal 2026. It also explicitly excludes any contribution from the pending Marc Jacobs acquisition, so subsequent filings around that transaction and its integration will be important for understanding longer-term growth and margin potential.

Morris Goldfarb, G-III’s Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, said, “I am very pleased with our first quarter results, which demonstrate the G-III team’s ability to execute in a dynamic environment. The quarter was better than expected with both our net sales and earnings coming in ahead of guidance. Our go-forward portfolio saw continued momentum and healthy full-price selling, which contributed to meaningful gross margin expansion versus the prior year. Based on our strong first quarter results, we are raising our earnings guidance for fiscal 2027.”
Mr. Goldfarb continued, “Our recently announced acquisition of the iconic Marc Jacobs brand in partnership with WHP Global marks an exciting new chapter for G-III and will significantly accelerate our transformation into a brand-led global powerhouse. Marc Jacobs is one of the most influential brands in fashion, and we see tremendous opportunity to build on its strong foundation and drive long-term growth across categories, channels, and geographies. With an increasingly powerful portfolio of owned and licensed brands, disciplined execution, and a talented global team, we believe G-III is exceptionally well-positioned to drive sustainable long-term growth and significant shareholder value.”

Inventories decreased 8% to $417.9 million this year compared to $456.5 million last year.

Outlook
The Company today increased its outlook for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2027 and provided its outlook for the second quarter ending July 31, 2026.
The Company’s updated outlook assumes that tariffs for the remainder of the year will approximate those rates that existed under the IEEPA tariff regime. Additionally, the Company’s outlook does not include any impact related to its pending transaction to acquire Marc Jacobs.
Fiscal 2027
Net sales for fiscal 2027 are expected to be approximately $2.71 billion, which incorporates the loss of approximately $470 million of sales from Calvin Klein and Tommy Hilfiger products. This compares to net sales of $2.96 billion for fiscal 2026.
Net income is expected to be between $171.0 million and $175.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $3.85 and $3.95. This compares to net income of $67.4 million, or $1.51 per diluted share for fiscal 2026.
Non-GAAP net income is expected to be between $95.0 million and $99.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $2.15 and $2.25. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $116.2 million, or diluted earnings per share of $2.61 for fiscal 2026.
Adjusted EBITDA is expected to be between $178.0 million and $182.0 million compared to adjusted EBITDA of $192.4 million in fiscal 2026.
Net interest income is expected to be approximately $2.0 million.
Tax rate is estimated to be approximately 30.0% for GAAP purposes and 33.5% for non-GAAP purposes. The tax rate for non-GAAP purposes is higher than our previous estimate as a result of higher non-deductible expenses.
Second Quarter Fiscal 2027
Net sales for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 are expected to be approximately $570.0 million. This compares to net sales of $613.3 million in last year’s second quarter.

Net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 is expected to be between $7.0 million and $11.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $0.15 and $0.25. This compares to net income of $10.9 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, in last year’s second quarter.
Non-GAAP net income for the second quarter of fiscal 2027 is expected to be between $7.0 million and $11.0 million, or diluted earnings per share between $0.15 and $0.25. This compares to non-GAAP net income of $11.2 million, or $0.25 per diluted share, in last year’s second quarter.

Adjusted EBITDA, as defined | | $ | (7,660) | | $ | 19,489 | | $ | 178,000 - 182,000 | | $ | 192,367 |
Adjusted EBITDA is a “non-GAAP financial measure” which represents earnings before depreciation and amortization, interest and financing charges, net and income tax expense and excludes (i) in fiscal 2027, the benefit recognized in connection with the expected recovery of previously incurred tariffs imposed under the IEEPA on inventory sold in the prior year included in cost of goods sold, (ii) in fiscal 2027, expenses related to the Marc Jacobs transaction primarily related to professional fees, (iii) in fiscal 2026, asset impairments, (iv) in fiscal 2026, professional fees related to a potential strategic opportunity that did not come to fruition and (v) in fiscal 2026, one-time severance expenses related to a closed warehouse. Adjusted EBITDA is being presented as a supplemental disclosure because management believes that it is a common measure of operating performance in the apparel industry. Adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an alternative to net income, as an indicator of the Company’s operating performance, or as an alternative to cash flows from operating activities as a measure of the Company’s liquidity, as determined in accordance with GAAP.
