Carter's Posts 3.7 Percent Gain in Q2

Carter's (NYSE:CRI), the children’s apparel leader known for its Carter’s, OshKosh, and Skip Hop brands, reported results for Q2 fiscal 2025 on July 25, 2025. The company delivered GAAP revenue of $585 million, ahead of the analyst estimate of $568.1 million (GAAP). However, earnings per share on a non-GAAP basis came in at $0.17, far below non-GAAP expectations of $0.39 and down 77.6% from the prior year’s $0.76. The period saw profits and margins fall across all segments compared to Q2 fiscal 2024, driven by pricing investments, higher costs, and early-stage leadership transition. Despite top-line growth, Carter’s suspended forward financial guidance, citing uncertainty from new tariffs and ongoing organizational changes.
