On a constant currency basis, revenue is expected to decrease slightly. Management attributed the downturn to the “prolonged effects of the Middle East conflict,” which has hammered wholesale demand and consumer traffic across the Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) region, notably dragging down critical regional markets like Turkey. **Read Also: D-Wave CEO Says Quantum Computing Is Moving Into Daily Business Operations After $10 Million Deal With Fortune 100 Firm** ## **CEO On Strategic ‘Opposing Forces’** The guidance cut overshadowed a solid first quarter where PVH delivered $2.025 billion in revenue and a non-GAAP EPS of $2.01, which exceeded corporate expectations. CEO **Stefan Larsson** explained that the company is navigating a heavily bifurcated global consumer environment. “As we look forward, we are balancing two opposing forces: on one side, the increasing brand and business momentum we are driving in both Calvin and TOMMY, and on the other, the prolonged effects of the Middle East conflict,” Larsson stated. CEO emphasized that while adjusting to the present economic slowdown in Europe, PVH will continue fueling its underlying “momentum” by capturing market share across the Americas and Asia-Pacific regions through targeted digital expansions. ## **Tariff Refunds Cushion Margins** Despite the top-line downgrade, the retail conglomerate managed to protect its profitability targets. PVH reaffirmed its full-year non-GAAP operating margin outlook of approximately 8.8%, successfully mitigating the geopolitical headwinds via a massive $100 million benefit from U.S. tariff refunds. Interim CFO **Melissa Stone** noted that the financial influx enables PVH to absorb regional pressures while moving forward with high-value, “brand-accretive investments to support the long-term growth of Calvin Klein and TOMMY HILFIGER.” ## **How Has PVH Performed In 2026?** Shares of PVH have advanced by 16.08% year-to-date. It closed 0.46% lower at $77.80 apiece on Friday, and it was unchanged in premarket on Monday. Over the last month, PVH stock was down 11.91%, and it fell 0.88% over the last six months and rose 17.35% over the year. **Benzinga’s Edge Stock Rankings** indicate that PVH maintains a weak price trend in the short term but a strong trend in the long and medium terms, with a poor growth score. **Read Also: Michael Burry's Lululemon Bet Takes A Hit As LULU Crashes To Lowest Level Since 2018: Gary Black Warns Of 'Intense Competition'** **_Disclaimer:_** _This content was partially produced with the help of AI tools and was reviewed and published by Benzinga editors._ _Image Via Shutterstock_ ### Related Stocks - [PVH.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/PVH.US.md) - [QBTS.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QBTS.US.md) - [LULU.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/LULU.US.md) - [QBTS+.US](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/QBTS+.US.md) ## Related News & Research - [Nomura Asset Management Co.
