The brand’s direct-to-consumer revenue, however, showed resilience with a 4% increase to $741m.  

This growth was attributed to a 5% rise in owned and operated store revenue, while e-commerce revenue saw a smaller 2% increase.  

North America faced a 12% revenue decrease to $915m, but international revenue painted a brighter picture with a 7% increase to $566m, even when adjusted for currency fluctuations. 

Under Armour’s gross margin for the quarter ending 31 December 2023 improved by 100 basis points to 45.2%, primarily due to supply chain efficiencies that reduced freight expenses.
