Total Retail segment net sales increased 8.0%, with comparable Retail segment net sales increasing 6.2%.

Comparable Retail segment net sales increased 10.0% at FP Group, 8.4% at Urban Outfitters and 3.0% at Anthropologie. Subscription segment net sales increased 28.6% primarily driven by a 30.4% increase in average active subscribers in the current quarter versus the prior year quarter. Wholesale segment net sales increased 18.6% driven by a 19.2% increase in FP Group wholesale sales due to an increase in sales to specialty customers and department stores.

Total Retail segment net sales increased 8.0%, with comparable Retail segment net sales increasing 6.0%.

“We are pleased to report our highest adjusted profit quarter in Company history, marking our eighth consecutive quarter of record sales and profits. These results were driven by positive Retail segment ‘comps’ at every brand and continued double-digit growth in our Wholesale and Subscription segments,” said Richard A. Hayne, Chief Executive Officer. “Our customers continue to respond favorably to our fashion assortments. This gives us confidence in URBN's ongoing success,” finished Mr. Hayne.

Net sales by brand and segment for the three and six-month periods were as follows:

For the three months ended July 31, 2026, the gross profit rate increased by 580 basis points compared to the three months ended July 31, 2025, and gross profit dollars increased 27.4% to $721.6 million from $566.2 million. For the three months ended July 31, 2026, the adjusted gross profit rate increased by 4 basis points compared to the three months ended July 31, 2025, and adjusted gross profit dollars increased 10.6% to $625.9 million from $566.2 million. The increase in the adjusted gross profit rate was primarily due to leverage in store occupancy costs due to the increase in comparable Retail segment store net sales and leverage in delivery expense as a result of several company initiatives to offset fuel surcharges, partially offset by an increase in Retail segment markdowns driven by Anthropologie and the negative impacts of tariffs and inbound freight fuel surcharges on initial merchandise costs. The increase in adjusted gross profit dollars was primarily due to higher net sales.

For the six months ended July 31, 2026, the gross profit rate increased by 299 basis points compared to the six months ended July 31, 2025, and gross profit dollars increased 19.8% to $1.26 billion from $1.06 billion. For the six months ended July 31, 2026, the adjusted gross profit rate decreased by 6 basis points compared to the six months ended July 31, 2025, and adjusted gross profit dollars increased 10.7% to $1.17 billion from $1.06 billion. The decrease in the adjusted gross profit rate was primarily due to an increase in Retail segment markdowns driven by Anthropologie and the impact of a prior year gain of $4.8 million, or 17 basis points, not repeated in the current year period, partially offset by leverage in store occupancy costs due to the increase in comparable Retail segment store net sales. The increase in adjusted gross profit dollars was primarily due to higher net sales.

As of July 31, 2026, total inventory increased by $82.3 million, or 11.8%, compared to total inventory as of July 31, 2025. Total Retail segment inventory increased 12.0% and Retail segment comparable inventory increased 8.4%. Wholesale segment inventory increased 10.0%. The increase in Retail segment inventory was due to the increase in net sales and timing of inventory receipts. The increase in Wholesale segment inventory was due to the increase in net sales.

For the three months ended July 31, 2026, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $41.0 million, or 10.5%, compared to the three months ended July 31, 2025. Selling, general and administrative expenses were flat as a percentage of net sales compared to the three months ended July 31, 2025. The leverage in store payroll expenses due to the growth in Retail segment store net sales was offset by the deleverage in marketing expenses to support customer growth and increased net sales in the Retail and Subscription segments, along with increased artificial intelligence technology investments benefiting the Company's current and future operations. The dollar growth in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily due to increased marketing expenses to support customer growth and increased net sales in the Retail and Subscription segments, as well as increased store payroll expenses to support the growth in Retail segment store net sales.

For the six months ended July 31, 2026, selling, general and administrative expenses increased by $83.1 million, or 11.0%, compared to the six months ended July 31, 2025. Selling, general and administrative expenses deleveraged 4 basis points as a percentage of net sales compared to the six months ended July 31, 2025. The deleverage in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to deleverage in marketing expenses to support customer growth and increased net sales in the Retail and Subscription segments, along with increased artificial intelligence technology investments benefiting the Company's current and future operations. This was partially offset by a discrete benefit of $6.9 million, or 22 basis points,

in the current year period resulting from the reversal of a litigation accrual, as well as leverage in store payroll expenses due to the growth in Retail segment store net sales. The dollar growth in selling, general and administrative expenses was primarily related to increased marketing expenses to support customer growth and increased net sales in the Retail and Subscription segments, increased store payroll expenses to support the growth in Retail segment store net sales and increased artificial intelligence technology investments benefiting the Company's current and future operations.

The Company’s effective tax rate for the three months ended July 31, 2026, was 19.4%, compared to 21.5% in the three months ended July 31, 2025.

The Company's adjusted effective tax rate for the six months ended July 31, 2026, was 23.0%. The change in the adjusted effective tax rate for the three and six months ended July 31, 2026, was primarily attributable to the ratio of foreign taxable earnings to global taxable earnings.

Adjusted net income for the three months ended July 31, 2026, was $149.3 million and adjusted earnings per diluted share were $1.72.

Important Information Regarding Non-GAAP Financial Measures

In addition to evaluating the financial condition and results of our operations in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”), from time to time our management evaluates and analyzes results and any impact on the Company of certain events outside of normal, or “core,” business and operations, by considering adjusted financial measures not prepared in accordance with GAAP. Examples of items that we consider non-core include refunds for tariffs previously paid under the International Emergency Economic Powers Act ("IEEPA"), associated interest income and the release of a valuation allowance against certain foreign net deferred tax assets. In order to improve the transparency of our disclosures, provide a meaningful presentation of results from our core business operations and improve period-over-period comparability, we have included certain adjusted financial measures for fiscal 2027 that exclude the impact of these non-core business items.

We believe these adjusted financial measures are important indicators of our recurring results of operations because they exclude items that may not be indicative of, or are unrelated to, our underlying results of operations and provide a useful baseline for analyzing trends in our underlying business. Management uses adjusted financial measures for planning, forecasting and evaluating business and financial performance.

Non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed as supplementing, and not as an alternative or substitute for, the Company’s financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP. Certain of the items that may be excluded or included in non-GAAP financial measures may be significant items that could impact the Company’s financial position, results of operations or cash flows and should therefore be considered in assessing the Company’s actual and future financial condition and performance. These adjusted financial measures are not consistent with GAAP and may not be calculated the same as similarly titled measures used by other companies.
