Vince Holding Corp. (NASDAQ:VNCE) traded sharply higher on Tuesday, rising 6% after the fashion retailer posted third-quarter financial results that topped Wall Street expectations across the board.
For the quarter ended November 1, 2025, Vince reported net sales of $85.1 million—well above the $79.88 million consensus forecast and up 6.2% from $80.2 million a year ago. Adjusted earnings per share reached $0.21, edging past analyst estimates of $0.19.
Sales improved across both major divisions. Wholesale revenue climbed 6.7% to $52 million, while direct-to-consumer revenue rose 5.5% to $33.1 million. Gross profit totaled $41.9 million, representing 49.2% of net sales, slightly below last year’s 50.0% margin due mainly to additional tariff and freight expenses.
CEO Brendan Hoffman praised the company’s performance, saying, “We are extremely proud of our third quarter performance, delivering healthy sales growth across all channels while exceeding expectations for both top and bottom line results. This momentum has continued into the fourth quarter with a record holiday sales weekend in direct-to-consumer.”
Looking ahead to the final quarter of the fiscal year, Vince expects net sales to rise between 3% and 7% from the prior-year period, with adjusted operating income projected at roughly 0% to 2% of net sales. For fiscal 2025 overall, the company anticipates year-over-year revenue growth of 2% to 3%.
Vince closed the quarter with 60 company-operated stores, one fewer than a year earlier. Inventory levels increased to $75.9 million from $63.8 million, with about $4.2 million of that gain tied to elevated inventory values driven by tariffs.
