FY2026 guidance was maintained — unchanged from the initial outlook issued with Q4 FY2025 results. Management reaffirmed brand revenue comp growth of 2%–6% (midpoint 4%) and an operating margin range of 17.5%–18.1% (midpoint 17.8%). Capex remains approximately $275 million with an increasing trajectory, directed at e-commerce, retail, and supply-chain investments. No guidance was revised despite acknowledged tariff and fuel cost headwinds, reflecting management's confidence in offsetting cost pressures through supply-chain efficiency, AI-driven productivity, and brand pricing power.
