North American fashion brand Levi Strauss recorded a net profit of 175.8 million dollars (152 million euros) in the first fiscal quarter, an increase of 30.2% compared to the previous year.
Levi Strauss’ accounts between December 2025 and February 2026, which kick off the US reporting season, reflect a 14% increase in revenues, reaching 1,742 million dollars (1,506 million euros).
More specifically, sales in America totaled 856 million dollars (740 million euros), an increase of 9%, while in Europe they increased by 24% to 496 million dollars (429 million euros). In Asia, they rose 13% to 347 million dollars (300 million euros).
“We achieved very solid financial performance in the first quarter, driven by broad-based growth across all channels, regions and categories,” said Levi Strauss CEO Michelle Gass.
For the year as a whole, which will end on November 29th, the company has revised its forecasts upward and now expects net revenue growth of 5.5% to 6.5%, compared to the previous range of 5% to 6%.
Levi Strauss’ forecast assumes that American tariffs on imports from China will remain at 30% and those from the rest of the world at 20%, as well as that there will be no significant worsening of macroeconomic and inflationary pressures, nor interruptions in the supply chain.
In this regard, during the conference with analysts after the publication of the company’s results, the company’s financial administrator, Harmit Singh, stated that, despite having largely exceeded expectations in the quarter, the company maintains its prudent stance in its forecasts, highlighting that it did not incorporate in them the reduction in tariffs that could occur at some point.
