Columbia Sportswear Company reported flat Q1 2026 net sales of $779.0 million, but profitability weakened. Net income declined to $34.3 million from $42.2 million and diluted EPS slipped to $0.65 from $0.75, as margins and interest income both softened.
Gross margin edged down to 50.7%, pressured by incremental U.S. tariffs, only partly offset by targeted price increases. U.S. segment sales fell 10%, while EMEA surged 35% with stronger direct-to-consumer and distributor performance. LAAP and Canada delivered modest growth but faced promotional and mix headwinds.
Operating cash flow was a use of $77.5 million, driven largely by working capital and lower payables, while the company spent $150 million on share repurchases and paid $15.6 million in dividends. Cash and short-term investments declined, but Columbia entered a new $500 million unsecured revolving credit facility maturing in 2031 and remained covenant-compliant.
Columbia highlighted its Columbia brand ACCELERATE Growth Strategy, tariff and trade uncertainty, and geopolitical risks, including Middle East conflict, as key external pressures. The company has paid about $80 million of now-unconstitutional IEEPA tariffs and begun refund claims but has not yet recognized any recovery.
