Canada Goose chairman and CEO Dani Reiss said: “Our fourth quarter results came in ahead of guidance, reflecting the power of our iconic brand and the disciplined execution of our strategy by our team.
“During the period, we increased revenue and gross profit, underpinned by positive comparable sales growth, and expanded our adjusted EBIT margin, while navigating a difficult environment.
“This capped off a solid year, with noteworthy progress across our strategic priorities – we expanded our retail presence in key markets, grew revenue across product categories, and streamlined our organization to accelerate decision-making and improve cost efficiencies.”
Looking ahead to fiscal 2025, Canada Goose expects total revenue to grow in the low-single-digits year-over-year.
