H1 fall for Designer Brands, but some second-quarter signs of hope

16/09/2025
Footwear group Designer Brands has reported revenues of just over $1.4 billion for the first half of its current business year, the six months ending August 2, 2025. This represents a fall of 6% year on year.

Chief executive, Doug Howe, said results in the second quarter were better than in the first three months and that back-to-school sales had been strong.

He said consumer sentiment had “ticked up slightly” but that there was still “a notable amount of uncertainty” and caution in discretionary spending.
