Toronto – May 14, 2026 – Canada Goose Holdings Inc. (NYSE, TSX: GOOS) announced today financial results for the fourth quarter and fiscal year ended March 29, 2026. All amounts are in Canadian dollars unless otherwise indicated.
“Our fourth quarter capped a year of meaningful progress and execution against our goals,” said Dani Reiss, Chairman & CEO of Canada Goose. “Revenue growth was broad-based across regions and channels, supported by stronger conversion in DTC, improved wholesale performance, and continued momentum across our expanded product offering. Our brand and product continue to resonate with customers, and that strength showed up in healthier demand, improving retail productivity, and a more returns-focused approach to operating the business.”
“As we enter fiscal 2027, our focus is to convert brand momentum and a stronger operating foundation into sustainable EBIT margin expansion, starting this year. Our priorities are clear: deepen brand desire, scale a more repeatable product engine across seasons, and improve channel productivity by making our stores and digital platforms work harder together.”
Fourth Quarter and Fiscal 2026 Business Highlights
In fiscal 2026, Canada Goose advanced a set of foundational investments and initiatives designed to strengthen the business for long‑term, sustainable growth. In our fourth quarter and throughout the year, we executed with discipline against these priorities, making deliberate choices across product, brand, and channels, as well as our key markets, to improve the quality and durability of our performance. Key achievements include the following:
•Increased product newness meaningfully, including the launch of our first‑ever Lunar New Year capsule and the introduction of our largest Spring collection to date in the fourth quarter.
•Drove brand momentum through a series of campaigns executed alongside high‑impact brand moments in the fourth quarter, including our Icons, Lunar New Year, and the Spring 2026 Return of the Sun campaigns. New customer recruitment and repeat customers increased in fiscal 2026 compared to the prior fiscal year.
1 Constant currency revenue is a non-IFRS financial measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for more information.
2 DTC comparable sales growth (decline) is a supplementary financial measure. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for a description of this measure.
3 Adjusted EBIT, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company, and net debt are non-IFRS financial measures, and adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted net income per diluted share attributable to the shareholders of the Company are non-IFRS financial ratios. See “Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures” for more information.
4 This outlook constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. See “Fiscal 2027 Outlook” and “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” for more information.
1
•Delivered continued DTC channel performance, with DTC comparable sales growth2 of 10% in the fourth quarter, marking five consecutive quarters of positive comparable growth, and 8% for the full year, driven by stronger conversion, improved store productivity, and deeper digital engagement.
•Took targeted actions to actively manage our retail store portfolio in the fourth quarter, including recording an $8.4m store impairment following a review of underperforming locations, in order to strengthen the overall performance of our retail network. During fiscal 2026, we opened nine net new permanent stores and ended the year with 88 stores globally, including conversions.
•Strengthened operating efficiency, deploying a more dynamic store labour planning model and delivering marketing spend efficiency in our fourth quarter, as well as maintaining tighter corporate overhead control throughout fiscal 2026.
Fourth Quarter Financial Highlights5
All Year-Over-Year Comparisons Unless Otherwise Noted
▪Total revenue increased 17.9% to $453.3m, up 18.2% on a constant currency basis1.
•DTC revenue increased 15.2% to $361.7m, or up 15.8% on a constant currency basis1 reflecting positive growth across all regions, driven by strength across retail and e-commerce channels. DTC comparable sales growth2 was 10.0%.
•Wholesale revenue increased 54.4% to $49.1m, or 51.6% on a constant currency basis1 driven by earlier shipments related to our Spring/Summer 2026 order book compared to the prior year period, and higher in-season orders from our wholesale partners.
•Other revenue increased 9.8% to $42.5m, or 10.6% on a constant currency basis1 attributable to higher revenue generated from friends and family events.
▪Gross profit increased 14.9% to $315.4m due to higher revenue. Gross margin was 69.6% compared to 71.3% in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, reflecting product mix associated with the early delivery of our Spring/Summer 2026 collection, a higher proportion of Wholesale revenue, and higher freight and duty costs attributable to regional sales mix.
▪Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $250.5m, compared to $219.3m in the prior year period. The increase is primarily due to higher depreciation and amortization, including an $8.4m store impairment charge, and higher incentive compensation related to full-year fiscal 2026 financial performance.
▪Operating Income was $64.9m, compared to operating income of $55.1m in the prior year period, attributable to higher gross profit, partially offset by higher SG&A expenses.
▪Net income attributable to shareholders was $28.1m, or $0.28 per diluted share, compared with a net income attributable to shareholders of $27.1m, or $0.28 per diluted share in the prior year period.
▪Adjusted EBIT3 was $64.9m, compared to $59.7m in the prior year period. Adjusted EBIT margin3 was 14.3%, compared to 15.5% in the prior year period. This decrease in Adjusted EBIT margin3 was primarily driven by the $8.4m store impairment charge.
▪Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders3 was $36.3m, or $0.37 per diluted share, compared with an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $32.0m, or $0.33 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Full Year Fiscal 2026 Financial Highlights6
All Year-Over-Year Comparisons Unless Otherwise Noted
▪Total revenue increased 13.3% to $1,528.2m, up 12.4% on a constant currency basis1.
•DTC revenue increased 15.9% to $1,157.4m, or up 15.4% on a constant currency basis1 led by strong retail and e-commerce performance across all regions. DTC comparable sales growth2 was 8.4%.
5 Comparisons to fourth quarter ended March 30, 2025.
6 Comparisons to fiscal 2025 year ended March 30, 2025.
2
•Wholesale revenue increased 11.7% to $291.2m, or 8.5% on a constant currency basis1 primarily due to higher demand from our wholesale partners.
•Other revenue decreased 10.3% to $79.6m, or 9.6% on a constant currency basis1 due to fewer friends and family events and product sales to employees.
▪Gross profit increased 13.0% to $1,065.5m due to higher revenue. Gross margin for the year was 69.7% compared to 69.9% in fiscal 2025 primarily due to higher freight and duty costs attributable to regional mix, partially offset by channel mix resulting from a higher proportion of DTC revenue.
▪Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses were $976.7m, compared to $779.0m in the prior year period. The increase in SG&A reflected strategic investments in brand and marketing, product design and development, and our retail network supporting long-term value creation. We also incurred charges for discrete, non-recurring items, including an arbitration payment to a former supplier and a bad-debt provision related to a U.S. wholesale partner.
▪Operating Income was $88.8m, compared to operating income of $164.1m in the prior year period, attributable to higher SG&A expenses.
▪Net income attributable to shareholders was $22.5m, or $0.23 per diluted share, compared with a net income attributable to shareholders of $94.8m, or $0.97 per diluted share in the prior year period.
▪Adjusted EBIT3 was $148.0m, compared to $171.4m in the prior year period. Adjusted EBIT margin3 was 9.7% , compared to 12.7% in the prior year period.
▪Adjusted net income attributable to shareholders3 was $77.1m, or $0.78 per diluted share, compared with an adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of $109.4m, or $1.12 per diluted share in the prior year period.
Balance Sheet Highlights
Inventory of $386.3m for the fourth quarter ended March 29, 2026 was flat year-over-year, reflecting higher demand and our continued proactive approach to managing inventory.
The Company ended the fourth quarter of fiscal 2026 with net debt3 of $383.2m, compared to $408.8m at the end of the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025, with net debt leverage remaining stable at 1.3 times EBITDA over both periods. This reduction was mainly due to higher cash balances resulting from disciplined working capital management, and lower borrowings from our credit facilities compared to the previous year.
Fiscal 2027 Outlook
This outlook constitutes forward-looking information within the meaning of applicable securities laws. The purpose of this outlook is to provide a description of management's expectations regarding the Company's annual financial performance and may not be appropriate for other purposes. Actual results could vary materially as a result of numerous factors, including certain risk factors, many of which are beyond the Company’s control. Please see "Forward-looking Statements" below for more information.
Based on improved visibility into our business and the progress of initiatives already underway, we are introducing an annual financial outlook for fiscal 2027.
Our outlook reflects our current assessment of operating conditions, underlying demand trends, and the level of execution we believe is achievable.
For fiscal 2027, we expect:
•Revenue to increase approximately low-single digits compared to the prior year.
•Adjusted EBIT margin7 to be in the range of 11% to 12%.
7 The Company is not able to provide, without unreasonable effort, a reconciliation of the guidance for non-IFRS adjusted EBIT to the most directly comparable IFRS measure because the Company does not currently have sufficient data to accurately estimate the variables and individual adjustments included in the most directly comparable IFRS measure that would be necessary for such reconciliations, including (a) income tax related accruals in respect of certain one-time items (b) the impact of foreign currency exchange and (c) non-recurring expenses that cannot reasonably be estimated in advance. These adjustments are inherently variable and uncertain and depend on various factors that are beyond the Company's control and as a result it is also unable to predict their probable significance. Therefore, because management cannot estimate on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort the impact these variables and individual adjustments will have on its reported results in accordance with IFRS, we are unable to provide a reconciliation of the non-IFRS measures included in our fiscal 2027 guidance.
3
In addition, our outlook assumes:
•Revenue growth is driven by pricing actions already implemented, increased depth in our product assortment, a larger wholesale order book, and new store openings, partially offset by lower consumer demand relative to fiscal 2026, including softer traffic in key markets, reduced consumer confidence, and lower travel.
•Gross margin expands, reflecting the benefit of pricing actions and operational efficiencies embedded in fiscal 2026 production and favourable channel mix, partially offset by product mix, raw material inflation, and supply chain cost pressures from current disruptions, with the tariff environment assumed to be unchanged from fiscal 2026.
•SG&A declines as a percentage of revenue, as we balance disciplined cost management with targeted investments across channels, marketing, and technology, driving operating leverage on a consolidated basis.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Other Specified Financial Measures
This press release includes references to certain non-IFRS financial measures such as adjusted EBIT, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company, net debt, and constant currency revenue and certain non-IFRS ratios such as adjusted EBIT margin and adjusted net income per basic and diluted share attributable to the shareholders of the Company. These financial measures are employed by the Company to measure its operating and economic performance and to assist in business decision-making, as well as providing key performance information to senior management. The Company believes that, in addition to conventional measures prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards, certain investors and analysts use this information to evaluate the Company’s operating and financial performance. These financial measures are not defined under IFRS Accounting Standards nor do they replace or supersede any standardized measure under IFRS Accounting Standards. Other companies in our industry may calculate these measures differently than we do, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Adjusted EBIT, adjusted EBIT margin, adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company, and adjusted net income per basic and diluted share attributable to shareholders of the Company.
These measures exclude the impact of certain non-cash items and certain other adjustments related to events that are non-recurring or unusual in nature, that we believe are not otherwise reflective of our ongoing operations and/or hat make comparisons of underlying financial performance between periods difficult. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to evaluate our core financial and operating performance for business planning purposes, as well as to analyze how our business operates in, or responds to, swings in economic cycles or to other events that impact the apparel industry.
Constant currency revenue
Constant currency revenue is calculated by translating the prior year reported amounts into comparable amounts using a single foreign exchange rate for each currency calculated based on the current period exchange rates. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, this information to assess how our business and geographic segments performed excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations.
Net debt and net debt leverage
We define net debt as cash less total borrowings and lease liabilities, and net debt leverage as the ratio of net debt to adjusted EBITDA, measured on a spot basis. We use, and believe that certain investors and analysts use, these non-IFRS financial measures and ratios to determine the Company’s financial leverage and ability to meet its debt obligations.
Reconciliations of such non-IFRS financial measures to the most directly comparable IFRS measure can be found in this press release under “Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures” below.
This press release also includes references to DTC comparable sales growth (decline) which is a supplementary financial measure defined as a rate of growth (decline) of sales on a constant currency basis from e-Commerce sites and stores which have been operating for one full year (12 successive fiscal months). The measure excludes store sales from both periods for the specific trading days when the stores were closed, whether those closures occurred in the current period or the comparative period.
Reconciliation of Non-IFRS Measures
The tables below reconcile net loss to adjusted EBIT and adjusted net income attributable to shareholders of the Company for the periods indicated, constant currency revenue to revenue across segments and geographies, and net debt for purposes of presenting its calculation.
