The earnings call highlighted several strategic achievements, including market share gains, successful brand integrations, and e-commerce growth. However, these positives were tempered by sales declines, tariff-related challenges, and margin pressures. Overall, the sentiment of the call is balanced, with both positive and negative aspects noted.

Company Guidance

During the second quarter of fiscal year 2025, Caleres, Inc. reported a sales decline of 3.6% year-over-year, with total sales of $658.5 million. The adjusted earnings per share were $0.35, while the gross margin stood at 43.4%, reflecting a decrease of 210 basis points compared to the previous year. The company experienced a 3.5% decline in brand portfolio sales and a 4.9% decrease in Famous Footwear sales, with comparable sales down 3.4%. The lead brands within the brand portfolio showed resilience, growing 1% in North America and 3.6% globally. The company faced challenges due to tariffs, which negatively impacted second-quarter sales by approximately $10 million and put pressure on gross margins. Despite these hurdles, Caleres reported double-digit international sales growth, a 1% increase in August back-to-school comps for Famous Footwear, and continued focus on mitigating tariff impacts and integrating the recently acquired Stuart Weitzman brand.
