Columbia Sportswear reports Q3 EPS $1.56, consensus $1.36

Reports Q3 revenue $931.8M, consensus $936.3M. Chairman, President and Chief Executive Officer Tim Boyle commented, “Third quarter results reflect ongoing strength in most international markets, offset by continued softness in North America. While warm weather has curbed early season demand for Fall 2024 cold weather product, I’m excited about the differentiated innovations we are offering consumers, including Omni-Heat Infinity and Omni-Heat Arctic, as well as the lightweight comfort provided by our Omni-Max footwear platform. In recent months, the Columbia brand embarked on ACCELERATE, a growth strategy intended to elevate the brand and attract younger and more active consumers. This multi-year strategy will be centered around several consumer-centric shifts across our brand, product and marketplace strategies. I’m confident the ACCELERATE Growth Strategy will enable brand-right profitable growth and I’m eager to see it come to life in the seasons ahead.”
