American shoppers are buying the fashion appeal of British heritage and offering faint hopes of plagued hope BurberryTurnaround despite us heading to the loom.
The company said on Friday in the three months ended June 28th, the company said on Friday in its first quarter results.
Burberry stocks had risen 8.13% by 11:26am.
The luxury brand known for its trench coats rose towards both new and existing consumers following a 4% decline in the region in the fourth quarter and a 9% decline in Burberry’s fiscal year 2025.
CEO Joshua Schulman said growth shows “the diversity of luxury consumers present in that market.” The US accounts for 19% of Burberry’s business.
Nevertheless, Shulman said that efforts to establish Burberry as a “high-end brand with a wide range of universal appeal” are also showing green photography in other regions.
Burberry’s overall group revenue fell by 1%, a comparable 1% in the June quarter to £433 million ($582 million) compared to analysts that fell 3% in the June quarter.
In the June quarter, sales rose 1% in Europe, the Middle East, India and Africa (EMEIA), fell 5% in the larger China region and 4% in the Asia-Pacific region.
Nevertheless, all regions demonstrated significant improvements due to a significant decline in previous quarters.
“We saw what we saw in America and in other regions. Local customers are strong worldwide and we saw continuous improvements in all regions,” Shulman told Media Call on Friday.

The result opposes the awkward backdrop of the luxury sector as US tariffs loom large and the Chinese market continues to lag behind, threatening to undermine the expected revival of US consumer spending.
Burberry’s Chief Financial Officer Kate Ferry recognized tariffs as “headwinds,” but said the company had adjusted its supply chain adaptation and pricing as needed the previous year.
“We actually took a very surgical approach to US pricing and understood where the price resilience lies,” she said in a revenue call Friday.
It is within a drastic overhaul of a luxury fashion house with a 169-year-old heritage. On Friday, he said that a previously announced cost-cutting programme, which includes a 1,700 job cut in May, will bring annual savings to £80 million by the end of fiscal year 2026.
July marks its first anniversary at Shulman’s helm. Schulman joined from Michael Kors and announced an emergency plan in November to “adjust courses” after a period of undervaluing the company’s stock price, selling, and many management changes.
In a memo on Friday, UBS analyst said the results provided confidence that Burberry’s brand’s momentum was “accelerating.”
“Josh entered the 11th hour and tried to pilot spring/summer products in the right direction, focusing on Britishness and iconic Burberry products, check patterns and more realistic pricing,” Bernstein’s global luxury sector head told CNBC’s Squawk Box Europe.
“The fact that organic growth is improving is still negative, but I think it’s a sign that a new marketing vision will work. I’m hoping for even better news in the second half when full winter products fully represent a new marketing approach and that means a lot for investors.”
