The children’s apparel retailer holds its long-term outlook despite tariff risks, projecting second-quarter earnings within a narrow range.
Carter’s Inc. reaffirmed its 2026 financial outlook while guiding second-quarter adjusted earnings per share to a range of $0.02 to $0.06. The company cited ongoing tariff uncertainty as a key factor in its projections, though it expects to navigate the challenges without revising long-term targets.
The guidance aligns with prior expectations but reflects caution amid broader trade policy shifts. Comparable earnings in the same period last year were slightly higher, though the company did not disclose exact figures. Analysts had anticipated a midpoint closer to $0.04 for the quarter.
No immediate market reaction was reported following the announcement.
