Toronto, Ontario--(Newsfile Corp. - March 25, 2026) - Magna Terra Minerals Inc. (TSXV: MTT) (the "Company" or "Magna Terra") is pleased to announce geochemical results of a soil sampling and trenching program at the Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend on its Rocky Brook Project ("Rocky Brook" or the "Project"), located in the prolific Bathurst Mining Camp ("BMC") of northern New Brunswick (Figure 1).
The soil sampling results show anomalous copper, zinc, gold, and silver values that are coincident with EM anomalies along the 15-kilometre-long Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend, one of five high priority targets identified by analysis of regional airborne geophysical and geochemical data sets (see news release dated October 27, 2025) that is located 5.5 kilometres to the north-northwest of Canadian Copper Inc.'s Caribou Mill Complex (Figure 2). Grab* and channel sample results from a trenching program at the Fossil Hill Zone confirmed the presence of native copper and copper sulphides (see news release dated December 11, 2025) and returned copper values up to 9,590 ppm, 9,210 ppm, and 9,080 ppm Cu.
"The results of our initial trenching program on the Rocky Brook Project are very encouraging. The impressive samples of visible copper mineralization in the trenches confirms the results of historic rock grab sampling on the Project. This abbreviated trenching program testing the Fossil Hill Zone only exposes a small section of the larger Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend where previous work has outlined a 15-kilometre-long zone of coincident copper mineralized rock samples and anomalous soil samples consistent with zones of conductivity and elevated gravity. The proximity of this zone to Canadian Copper's Caribou Mill Complex adds a compelling narrative for the potential to identify and delineate additional copper-rich massive sulphide deposits well within economic trucking distance to the Caribou Mill Complex. In parallel with the trenching work at Fossil Hill, we continue to explore along the larger 15-kilometre Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend, and we are very encouraged by the results of soil sampling indicating polymetallic (Cu-Zn-Au-Ag) signatures that coincide with airborne conductors and elevated gravity signatures. In 2026, we will look to further advance this trend and other identified high priority targets throughout the Rocky Brook Project, including targets on our Restigouche Property located between 5 and 10 kilometres to the southwest of Canadian Copper's Murray Brook Deposit."
~ Lew Lawrick, President and CEO, Magna Terra Minerals Inc.
Rocky Brook Project Highlights
VMS Highlights
The Project covers a 40-kilometre extent of favourable California Lake felsic volcanic and sedimentary rocks that are host to the nearby Restigouche, Murray Brook, and Caribou Deposits; Identification of the Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend - a 15-kilometre trend of coincident geochemical and geophysical anomalies and historical prospects;Previous work at the Fossil Hill Zone has discovered high-grade copper-cobalt mineralization with grab samples* assaying up to 16.65% Cu and 0.64% Co;Previous work at the Boudreau Brook prospect has discovered copper mineralization assaying up to 3% Cu; The property covers the Restigouche C-4 and C-5 footwall Cu-rich "feeder" zones where previous historical drilling at the C-4 zone and in hole C-4 that intersected 4.36 m grading 0.2% Cu, 1.6% Pb, and 6.74% Zn (from 17.3 to 21.6 m). The best intersection in the C-5 zone was reported in hole C-5 that intersected 2.06% Cu and 0.57% Zn over 4.5 m (from 51.9 to 56.4 m);Located in the prolific Bathurst Mining Camp within the premier mining jurisdiction of New Brunswick; andYear-round accessibility with road access to the majority of the property.Gold Highlights
The Project also covers a 30-kilometre extent of the Rocky Brook-Millstream Fault system;Strategically positioned along strike from Kinross-Puma's Lynx Zone gold discovery and adjacent to the past-producing Caribou Mine and Murray Brook base metal deposits; andRecent discovery in 2023 of high-grade gold assays from grab samples* assaying up to 5.23 g/t Au over a 350 metre strike length at Fournier Lake.Soil Sampling Program
A total of 2,515 soil samples, including 86 duplicates, were collected over three grids designed to cover key areas of the Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend including the Boudreau Brook and Fossil Hill mineral occurrences. The grids covered 7.2 kilometres of the 15-kilometre trend with each grid at 200 metre line-spacing and 25 metre sample-spacing (Figure 3). The results highlight key areas with multi-element anomalies (Cu, Zn, Ag, and Au) that are spatially coincident with EM conductors and prospective stratigraphy (ie. mafic volcanic and sedimentary units of the Sormany Group). The Company plans to complete gaps in the survey as part of its comprehensive exploration plans commencing in the spring.
Of the 2,515 samples collected over the Boudreau Brook-Fossil Hill Trend,
Copper values range between <1 and 371 ppm Cu with the 95th percentile (n=126) assaying over 61.3 ppm; Zinc values range between 3 and 3,940 ppm Zn with the 95th percentile (n=121) assaying over 135 ppm; Gold values range between <0.005 and 1.02 ppm Au with the 95th percentile (n=126) assaying over 0.012 ppm; and Silver values range between <0.2 and 2.7 ppm Ag with the 95th percentile (n=108) assaying over 0.3 ppm (Figure 3). Trenching Program
A total of three trenches (T4, T7, and T8) were excavated, totaling 245 metres in length and exposing 192 metres of bedrock, at the Fossil Hill Zone targeting areas of historical grab samples* including 16.65% and 13.84% copper and 0.64% cobalt (Figure 4). The trenches exposed massive mafic volcanic and mafic volcanic breccia rocks, locally siliceous, of the Armstrong Formation, Sormany Group. A total of 93 samples were taken including 68 grab samples* of bedrock taken at 1 to 3 metre intervals, 11 grab samples of float, and 14 channel samples ranging from 0.1 to 1.0 metres in length (Figure 4). Copper assay results range between 5 to 9,590 ppm, with three outcrop samples above 9,000 ppm Cu. Table 1 summarizes select significant sample results above 100 ppm Cu. Stripped sections of these trenches remain exposed for further mapping and sampling in the spring.
Trench T4 was 73.5 metres long and between 2 and 4.5 metres wide. A total of 26 grab samples of bedrock were collected of massive mafic volcanics and mafic volcanic breccias. Five of the grab samples contained malachite infilling fractures hosted in both the massive mafic volcanics and volcanic breccias (Figure 8A). Copper assay results range between 5 to 9,590 ppm with mineralization >100 ppm Cu over a length of 3.7 metres (true thickness unknown) (Figure 5).
Trench T7 was 81 metres long and between 2 and 3.5 metres wide. A total of 23 rock samples (1 outcrop, 14 channel, 8 float) were collected of massive mafic volcanics and mafic volcanic breccias. Two channel and one float sample(s) of massive mafic volcanics hosted malachite along fractures. Copper assay results range between 2 to 1,600 ppm (Figure 6).
Trench T8 was 90.5 metres long and between 4.5 and 7 metres wide. A total of 44 rock samples (41 outcrop, 3 float) were collected of massive mafic volcanics and mafic volcanic breccia. The eastern half of the trench consisted of 49 metres of intense silicification of the mafic units. Copper mineralization consisting of calcite+/-quartz vein-hosted chalcopyrite+malachite+/-azurite in five grab samples of bedrock (Figure 8B), one locality of vein-hosted native copper (1 outcrop, 1 float) (Figure 8C), and fractures coated by malachite was observed in 11 samples (9 outcrop, 2 float). Copper assay results range from 3 to 9,210 ppm with mineralization >100 ppm Cu over 25 metres (true thickness unknown) (Figure 7).

The Rocky Brook Project
The Rocky Brook Project comprises 31,489 hectares in 75 mineral claims making the Company one of the single largest strategic landholders in this historic mining camp (Figure 1). The Rocky Brook Project is located adjacent to and along strike from the Williams Brook Project, owned by Kinross Gold Corporation ("Kinross") and Puma, where a zone of high-grade gold mineralization was discovered over broad widths including drill intervals up to 5.55 g/t Au over 50.15 m (refer to Puma's news release dated September 15, 2021). The Project is located adjacent to a 30-kilometre-long section of the Rocky Brook-Millstream Fault and associated McIntyre and Ramsay Brook faults; an important structural zone controlling gold mineralization within the region. The Project also covers volcanic and sedimentary rocks that show strong potential to host polymetallic Cu-Co-Pb-Zn-Au-Ag mineralization, adjacent to the past-producing Caribou Mine and the Murray Brook Deposit, which is the largest undeveloped VMS project in New Brunswick owned by Canadian Copper Inc. (Figure 1).
The Bathurst Camp
The BMC is one of the world's oldest base metal (lead, zinc, copper, gold and silver) mining districts hosting one of Canada's largest VMS deposits, with the past-producing Brunswick No. 12 Mine having operated for 49 years. The BMC is host to over 46 mineral deposits, several of which have been mined, including the Brunswick No. 6, Heath Steele, Wedge, Stratmat, Half Mile Lake, Caribou and Murray Brook. A total of 136,643,367 tonnes of ore grading 3.44% Pb, 8.74% Zn, 0.37% Cu, and 102.2 g/t Ag were mined from the BMC (McCutcheon and Walker, 2020**).

Rising coal, crude oil, and natural gas prices could drive sustained demand for solar farm construction, regardless of federal tax incentives. AI data center growth and any renewed surge in EV sales could accelerate electricity demand, supporting long-term solar adoption. Solar farms offer a stable 20 to 30-year cost structure, increasingly attractive to utilities and large power users.

Fossil Group (FOSL - Free Report) shares soared 8.3% in the last trading session to close at $5.2. The move was backed by solid volume with far more shares changing hands than in a normal session. This compares to the stock's 19.1% gain over the past four weeks.
Fossil is sharpening execution with a brand-led, consumer-centric turnaround: more full-price selling, tighter costs, stronger innovation, and momentum in the U.S. and India—supporting margin gains and durable growth.
This watch and accessories maker is expected to post quarterly loss of $0.22 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -120%. Revenues are expected to be $205.3 million, down 12% from the year-ago quarter.
Earnings and revenue growth expectations certainly give a good sense of the potential strength in a stock, but empirical research shows that trends in earnings estimate revisions are strongly correlated with near-term stock price movements.
For Fossil Group, the consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 236.4% lower over the last 30 days to the current level. And a negative trend in earnings estimate revisions doesn't usually translate into price appreciation. So, make sure to keep an eye on FOSL going forward to see if this recent jump can turn into more strength down the road.

SummaryNextEra Energy is reaffirmed as a Buy, with a $101 price target and a projected 10%+ total return, including dividends.NEE’s unmatched renewables and storage backlog, secured supply chains, and leadership in solar, wind, and battery storage underpin robust long-term growth.NEE targets 8%+ earnings CAGR through 2035, with a 10% dividend increase this year and 6% annual growth targeted for 2027–2028.Risks include potential regulatory headwinds and tax credit cuts, but NEE’s backlog insulation and AI data center demand provide significant upside catalysts.Even before the Iran war, I was critical of the Trump administration's policies to double down on fossil fuels while simultaneously rolling back practically all of the Biden administration's EV, solar, wind, and battery backup initiatives to more effectively compete with China. Nothing has exposed the flaws of the administration's energy strategy as has the war on Iran. It is the biggest disruption and destruction of oil and gas assets in world history, in my view, and has had a very negative impact on the United States and the world. Indeed, despite being the biggest petroleum producer in the world, the United States is not immune from the fallout: gasoline prices have jumped 15% since the war started (see chart below), while the March CPI inflation print surged 0.9% - likely pushing additional interest rate cuts further into the future.
As a result, China is arguably winning the underlying energy war, while the United States seems determined to fritter away the gift of domestic shale oil (more on that later). What is frustrating to many (including myself) is that America seems to know what the solutions are because NextEra Energy (NEE) has become the largest utility company in the United States by specializing in those solutions. And, despite the Trump administration's de-prioritization (if not outright hostility...) toward clean energy, NextEra will continue to be very successful by deploying these low-cost solutions for decades to come. Today, I'll explain why that is the case and will give a preview of NEE's Q1 earnings report, which is due out on April 23rd.

Fossil Group is deeply undervalued, with its India subsidiary alone potentially worth 4–5x the parent's market cap. I target FOSL at $21.5/share, a +300% upside, driven by the India IPO catalyst and turnaround progress. Gross margin surged to 55.9% in 2025 as FOSL shifted to full-price sales, halted losses, and cut $250M in expenses.

Reiterates 2026 outlook
RICHARDSON, Texas, May 13, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Fossil Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FOSL) today announced financial results for the first quarter ended April 4, 2026.
“We are pleased to begin the year with outperformance on the top and bottom line, fueled by strong execution against our turnaround and healthy watch industry trends,” said Franco Fogliato, CEO. “Strong consumer response to our product innovation and compelling brand storytelling drove notable performance across channels, core brands and key geographies. We remain confident in our full year outlook, including a return to top line growth in the fourth quarter, and believe our proven strategies and structural advantages position us to drive long-term profitable growth and value creation.”
First Quarter 2026 Operating Results
Amounts referred to as “adjusted” as well as “constant currency” are non-GAAP financial measures. Reconciliations of these non-GAAP financial measures to their closest reported GAAP measures are included at the end of this press release.
Net sales totaled $224.8 million, a decrease of 3.6% on a reported basis and 6.5% in constant currency compared to $233.3 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2025. Sales were unfavorably impacted by 690 basis points as a result of the fiscal 2026 first quarter including 13 weeks as compared to 14 weeks in the prior year quarter. Our store rationalization initiatives and declines in our smartwatch sales comprised approximately 280 basis points of the sales decline in the first quarter. Net sales, in constant currency, declined 14% in Europe, 3% in the Americas, and 1% in Asia. Wholesale sales increased 5% while our direct to consumer sales decreased 29%, each on a constant currency basis. Within our direct to consumer channels, comparable retail sales declined 15%. In our major product categories, traditional watch sales were approximately flat in constant currency in the first quarter compared to the prior year period. The leathers category decreased 41% and jewelry sales declined 14% in constant currency during the first quarter. From a brand lens, ARMANI EXCHANGE, MICHAEL KORS and DIESEL increased while FOSSIL brand sales in constant currency decreased 17% in the first quarter.
Gross profit totaled $134.7 million compared to $143.0 million in the first quarter of 2025. Gross margin decreased 140 basis points to 59.9% versus 61.3% a year ago. The year-over-year decrease in the first quarter as compared to the prior year primarily reflects increased tariffs and the accelerated timing of licensed brand minimum royalty recognition. This decrease was partially mitigated by tariff refund claims recorded during the current year, which contributed positively to the margin by $4.0 million, including $2.8 million related to tariffs incurred in fiscal year 2025.
Operating expenses totaled $122.7 million, down 18.1% compared to the prior year period. As a percentage of net sales, operating expenses were 54.6% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 64.2% in the prior year first quarter. Operating expenses in the first quarter of 2026 included $2.0 million of restructuring costs, primarily related to employee costs and professional services, while operating expenses in the first quarter of 2025 included $15.8 million of restructuring costs. SG&A expenses were $120.6 million, down 9.9% compared to the first quarter of 2025. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 53.6% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to 57.4% in the prior year first quarter, largely driven by cost reductions and efficiencies gained through our restructuring programs. SG&A also benefited from tariff refund claims recorded during the first quarter, decreasing SG&A by $0.9 million, including $0.8 million related to tariffs incurred in fiscal year 2025.
Operating income (loss) was $12.0 million compared to ($6.7) million in the first quarter of 2025. Operating margin of 5.4% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to (2.9)% in the prior year first quarter. Constant currency adjusted operating income totaled $9.5 million compared to adjusted operating income of $9.2 million in the first quarter of 2025. Constant currency adjusted operating margin was 4.4% in the first quarter of 2026 compared to adjusted operating margin of 3.9% in the prior year first quarter.
Interest expense was $8.5 million compared to $4.5 million in the first quarter of 2025 due to increased debt issuance cost amortization, higher debt balances and increased interest rates.
Other income (expense) was income of $1.2 million compared to expense of $3.3 million in the first quarter of 2025, reflecting net currency gains in the first quarter of 2026 as compared to net currency losses in the prior year first quarter.
Income (loss) before income taxes was $4.8 million compared to $(14.5) million in the first quarter of 2025.
Adjusted EBITDA was $14.5 million, or 6.5% of net sales in the first quarter of 2026 and $9.1 million, or 3.9% in the prior year period.
Provision (benefit) for income taxes was an expense of $5.4 million, resulting in an effective income tax rate of 114.2% compared to an expense of $3.4 million and an effective tax rate of (23.3)% in the prior year. The effective tax rate in the first quarter of 2026 differed from the prior year first quarter primarily due to a change in the Company’s global mix of earnings.
Net loss totaled $0.8 million with net loss per diluted share of $0.01, which compares to a net loss of $17.6 million and net loss per diluted share of $0.33 in the prior year period. Adjusted net loss for the first quarter was $1.9 million with adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.03 compared to adjusted net loss of $5.0 million with adjusted net loss per diluted share of $0.10 in the prior year period. During the first quarter of 2026, currencies favorably affected net loss per diluted share by approximately $0.10. Balance Sheet Summary
As of April 4, 2026, the Company had total liquidity of $109.5 million, including $81.4 million of cash and cash equivalents and $28.1 million of availability under its revolving credit facility. Inventories at the end of the first quarter of 2026 totaled $156.1 million, a decrease of 14.3% versus a year ago. Total debt was $195.3 million.

Worldwide net sales to decline 4% to 6%, with a return to growth in the fourth quarterAdjusted operating margin(1) in the range of 3% to 5%Free cash flow break-even(2)
Worldwide net sales and adjusted operating margin guidance exclude impacts from foreign currency.
(1) A reconciliation of adjusted operating margin, a non-GAAP financial measure, to a corresponding GAAP measure is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable efforts due to the high variability and low visibility of certain income and expense items that are excluded in calculating adjusted operating margin.

Adjusted EBITDA, Adjusted operating income (loss), Constant Currency Adjusted Operating Income (Loss), Adjusted net income (loss) and Adjusted earnings (loss) per share
Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), constant currency adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share are non-GAAP financial measures. We define adjusted EBITDA as our net income (loss) before the impact of income tax expense (benefit), plus interest expense, amortization and depreciation, impairment expense, other non-cash charges, stock-based compensation expense, restructuring expense and unamortized debt issuance costs included in loss on extinguishment of debt minus IEEPA refund claims for tariffs incurred in the prior year, interest income and gains on asset divestitures. We define adjusted operating income (loss) as operating income (loss) before impairment expense, restructuring expense, IEEPA refund claims for tariffs incurred in the prior year and gains on asset divestitures. We define constant currency adjusted operating income (loss) as operating income (loss) before impairment expense, restructuring expense, IEEPA refund claims for tariffs incurred in the prior year and gains on asset divestitures and excluding the effects of foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations. We define adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share as net income (loss) attributable to Fossil Group, Inc. and diluted earnings (loss) per share, respectively, before impairment expense, restructuring expense, IEEPA refund claims for tariffs incurred in the prior year, gains on asset divestitures and unamortized debt issuance costs included in loss on extinguishment of debt. We have included adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), constant currency adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share herein because they are widely used by investors for valuation and for comparing our financial performance with the performance of our competitors. We also use both non-GAAP financial measures to monitor and compare the financial performance of our operations. Our presentation of adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share may not be comparable to similarly titled measures other companies report. Adjusted EBITDA, adjusted operating income (loss), adjusted net income (loss) and adjusted earnings (loss) per share are not intended to be used as alternatives to any measure of our performance in accordance with GAAP.
The following tables reconcile Adjusted EBITDA to the most directly comparable GAAP financial measure, which is income (loss) before income taxes. Certain line items presented in the tables below, when aggregated, may not foot due to rounding.

Fossil Group (FOSL - Free Report) came out with a quarterly loss of $0.03 per share versus the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of $0.22. This compares to a loss of $0.1 per share a year ago. These figures are adjusted for non-recurring items.
This quarterly report represents an earnings surprise of +86.36%. A quarter ago, it was expected that this watch and accessories maker would post earnings of $0.02 per share when it actually produced a loss of $0.15, delivering a surprise of -850%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has surpassed consensus EPS estimates just once.
Fossil Group, which belongs to the Zacks Retail - Apparel and Shoes industry, posted revenues of $224.8 million for the quarter ended March 2026, surpassing the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 9.50%. This compares to year-ago revenues of $233.3 million. The company has topped consensus revenue estimates two times over the last four quarters.
The sustainability of the stock's immediate price movement based on the recently-released numbers and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management's commentary on the earnings call.
Fossil Group shares have added about 5.1% since the beginning of the year versus the S&P 500's gain of 8.1%.
What's Next for Fossil Group?While Fossil Group has underperformed the market so far this year, the question that comes to investors' minds is: what's next for the stock?
There are no easy answers to this key question, but one reliable measure that can help investors address this is the company's earnings outlook. Not only does this include current consensus earnings expectations for the coming quarter(s), but also how these expectations have changed lately.
Empirical research shows a strong correlation between near-term stock movements and trends in earnings estimate revisions. Investors can track such revisions by themselves or rely on a tried-and-tested rating tool like the Zacks Rank, which has an impressive track record of harnessing the power of earnings estimate revisions.
Ahead of this earnings release, the estimate revisions trend for Fossil Group was unfavorable. While the magnitude and direction of estimate revisions could change following the company's just-released earnings report, the current status translates into a Zacks Rank #4 (Sell) for the stock. So, the shares are expected to underperform the market in the near future. You can see the complete list of today's Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
It will be interesting to see how estimates for the coming quarters and the current fiscal year change in the days ahead. The current consensus EPS estimate is -$0.15 on $205 million in revenues for the coming quarter and -$0.33 on $953 million in revenues for the current fiscal year.
Investors should be mindful of the fact that the outlook for the industry can have a material impact on the performance of the stock as well. In terms of the Zacks Industry Rank, Retail - Apparel and Shoes is currently in the bottom 28% of the 250 plus Zacks industries. Our research shows that the top 50% of the Zacks-ranked industries outperform the bottom 50% by a factor of more than 2 to 1.
Another stock from the same industry, Urban Outfitters (URBN - Free Report) , has yet to report results for the quarter ended April 2026.
This clothing and accessories retailer is expected to post quarterly earnings of $1.12 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -3.5%. The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 0.2% higher over the last 30 days to the current level.
Urban Outfitters' revenues are expected to be $1.46 billion, up 9.5% from the year-ago quarter.
This Is What To Expect From The Q2 Reporting Cycle Fossil Group NASDAQ: FOSL executives said the company’s turnaround efforts continued to gain traction in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, supported by wholesale strength, improving traditional watch demand and continued expense discipline.
Chief Executive Officer Franco Fogliato said Fossil began the year with “strong financial performance” and that its turnaround pillars are “delivering results today while advancing our path to long-term profitable growth.” In his prepared remarks, Fogliato cited net sales of $280 million, gross margin of 59.7% and adjusted operating income of $10 million.

Fossil Group: Should You Bet On Consumer Discretionary In 2023? Chief Financial Officer Randy Greben later said first-quarter net sales totaled $218 million, down 6% from a year earlier. Greben said the year-over-year comparison included a 7-point unfavorable impact from the absence of an extra week in last year’s first quarter, along with another 280 basis points tied to store closures and Fossil’s exit from smartwatches. He said first-quarter gross margin was 69.7%, down 160 basis points from a year earlier, while adjusted operating income was $10 million, compared with $9 million a year ago.
Wholesale and Traditional Watches Lead First-Quarter Momentum Fogliato said top-line results came in better than the company expected, led by strong wholesale performance, core brands, key geographies and “notable strength in traditional watches.” In the wholesale channel, Fossil grew mid-single digits, while core brand traditional watch sales rose high single digits, he said.
During the question-and-answer session, Maxim Group analyst Thomas Forte asked about the sustainability of the return to growth in traditional watches. Fogliato said the company was encouraged by its performance in wholesale, higher average unit retail and stronger gross margin. He also cited industry tailwinds, particularly in the Americas, where Fossil is seeing “a lot of younger consumer coming back to the space.”
Greben added that the combination of stronger traditional watch demand and full-price selling was flowing through to gross margin and the bottom line, calling it “a tangible proof point of the strategy coming together.”
Fossil Leans Into Brand Storytelling and Product Launches Fogliato said Fossil is working to strengthen its brand platform through innovation, consumer engagement, growth in traditional watches and renewed focus on jewelry and leather. He highlighted the relaunch of Fossil’s Big Tic watch, which he said drew on the company’s archives and generated visibility from lifestyle media and watch industry publications.
The company said Big Tic resonated with younger male consumers and helped drive social engagement and online conversion among Gen Z and Millennial shoppers. Fossil has followed the launch with a limited-edition Big Tic World Flags collection tied to global sports moments, and recently released a Star Wars collaboration featuring The Mandalorian and Grogu. Fogliato said a Marvel collaboration is planned for the third quarter.
Northland Capital Markets analyst Owen Rickert asked whether Big Tic was creating a halo effect for the broader Fossil brand. Fogliato said the strategy was to use Fossil’s archives to bring consumers back to the brand while shifting away from promotional activity toward full-price selling. He said Big Tic was intended to drive brand heat and support sales across Fossil’s “icons.”
Store Closures Continue, but Pace Slows as Full-Price Stores Improve Fossil continued to reshape its direct-to-consumer business during the quarter. Fogliato said the company closed seven stores in Q1 and remains on track to close about 15 locations in 2026. Greben said that would leave Fossil with 185 global stores at year-end.
However, Fogliato said Fossil has “significantly scaled back” its plans to downsize the store portfolio because of improving performance in full-price stores. He said comparable-store performance was particularly strong in that part of the retail business.
On e-commerce, Fogliato said Fossil is focused on channel profitability on a smaller sales base by maintaining full-price selling and improving the online customer journey. He pointed to a new global navigation system on Fossil’s e-commerce site that is designed to support richer storytelling, improve product discovery and give merchandising teams more flexibility.
Licensing, India and Operating Model Updates Fogliato said Fossil’s core licensed brands are also contributing to momentum, including Armani Group, Diesel and Michael Kors. He said Michael Kors returned to year-over-year growth in the quarter, aided by wholesale productivity, newness and a more competitive jewelry pricing structure. Emporio Armani saw strong sell-through across channels, while Armani Exchange benefited from higher full-price sales, women’s product strength and newness, he said.
In India, Fogliato said Fossil added more than 70 wholesale doors during the quarter, introduced new price points that increased full-price mix and average unit retail, and implemented a new e-commerce platform and CRM integration tool. Asked about macro concerns in the region, Fogliato called India “one of our strongest assets” and said Fossil maintains a leading position in a growing watch category.
Fossil also continues to simplify its operating model. Fogliato said the company is streamlining operations, rationalizing investments and consolidating its IT stack. After quarter-end, Fossil signed an agreement to transition its South Africa subsidiary to a distributor model, which executives said is intended to reduce operating expenses and improve gross profit flow-through.
Guidance Reiterated Despite Geopolitical Uncertainty Greben said Fossil is reiterating its fiscal 2026 outlook, despite results to date running ahead of expectations, because of uncertainty in the geopolitical environment and potential effects on input costs and consumer behavior.
Worldwide net sales are still expected to decline 4% to 6%. The net impact of store closures and the extra week in 2025 is expected to be about 360 basis points. Adjusted operating margin is still expected to be in the range of 3% to 5%. The company continues to expect breakeven free cash flow for the full year. Greben said Fossil expects 2026 to be weighted toward the second half, with a return to top-line growth anticipated in the fourth quarter. The company ended the quarter with $81 million in cash and cash equivalents, $28 million of availability under its asset-based revolver and no utilization under its at-the-market program. Inventory was $156 million, down 14% from a year earlier.
“With only one quarter of the year delivered, we are holding our guidance in light of the geopolitical climate and its potential impact on the consumer,” Fogliato said. “We continue to have strong conviction in the trajectory of the business.”
