LONG ISLAND CITY, N.Y., July 30, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Steven Madden, Ltd. (Nasdaq: SHOO), a leading designer and marketer of fashion-forward footwear, accessories and apparel, today announced financial results for the second quarter ended June 30, 2025.
Amounts referred to as “Adjusted” are non-GAAP measures that exclude the items defined as “Non-GAAP Adjustments” in the “Non-GAAP Reconciliation” section.
Second Quarter 2025 Results
Edward Rosenfeld, Chairman and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “As anticipated, the second quarter was challenging, driven largely by the impact of new tariffs on goods imported into the United States. Our team continues to act with agility to mitigate near-term impacts while remaining focused on positioning the company for long-term growth by executing our strategy to deepen consumer connections through the combination of compelling product and effective marketing. The integration of Kurt Geiger is proceeding smoothly, and we are more confident than ever in its potential to be a significant driver of growth for the company in the years ahead. While tariffs have created near-term pressure and added uncertainty, we believe our key strengths — powerful brands, a robust balance sheet and a proven business model — position us well to navigate the current environment and deliver sustainable growth over time.”
Second Quarter 2025 Channel Results
Revenue for the wholesale business was $360.6 million, a 6.4% decrease compared to the second quarter of 2024. Excluding the newly acquired Kurt Geiger, wholesale revenue declined 12.8%. Wholesale footwear revenue decreased 7.1%, or 11.7% excluding Kurt Geiger. Wholesale accessories/apparel revenue decreased 5.3%, or 14.6% excluding Kurt Geiger. Gross profit as a percentage of wholesale revenue was 30.0%, compared to 33.1% in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted gross profit as a percentage of wholesale revenue was 30.9%, compared to 33.1% in the second quarter of 2024, as a result of the impact of new tariffs on goods imported into the United States.
Direct-to-consumer revenue was $195.5 million, a 43.3% increase compared to the second quarter of 2024. Excluding Kurt Geiger, direct-to-consumer revenue decreased 3.0%, with declines in both brick-and-mortar and e-commerce channels. Gross profit as a percentage of direct-to-consumer revenue was 58.7%, compared to 64.3% in the second quarter of 2024. Adjusted Gross profit as a percentage of direct-to-consumer revenue was 61.3%, compared to 64.3% in the second quarter of 2024, driven primarily by the addition of the Kurt Geiger concessions business and the impact of new tariffs on goods imported into the United States.
The company ended the quarter with 392 company-operated brick-and-mortar retail stores, including 98 outlets, as well as seven e-commerce websites and 130 company-operated concessions in international markets. This includes 73 company-operated brick-and-mortar retail stores, including 27 outlets, as well as two e-commerce websites and 72 concessions related to Kurt Geiger.

As of June 30, 2025, total debt outstanding was $293.5 million, and cash, cash equivalents and short-term investments were $111.9 million, for net debt of $181.6 million.
