Sharp drop in performance! Growth was impacted by tariffs, and BIRK's new fiscal year revenue and profit guidance are both below expectations.

Chinatimes Finance APP learned that according to a report from BIRK.US, sales and profits have increased due to strong demand for its expensive sandals and clogs, but it is predicted that the growth rate in the coming year will slow down. The company stated that in the three months ending in September, revenue increased by 20% to 5.26 billion euros (6.16 billion U.S. dollars) when calculated at a fixed exchange rate, slightly higher than analysts' average expectations. However, BIRK.US predicts that sales will grow by a maximum of 15% in the 2026 fiscal year, meaning annual revenue could reach as high as 2.35 billion euros, slightly lower than expected.
