Tariff Refunds Add 44c to Duluth's Q2 EPS
DLTH sits 92% above its 52-week low of $2.02.
Summary
Duluth Holdings' Q2 EPS got a 44-cent boost from tariff refunds, a one-time item that flatters the bottom line. The company's core retail performance isn't detailed here, but the refund is material relative to its $3.88 share price. This follows a strong Q1 where gross margin expanded 540 bps to 57.4% on reduced promotions. Duluth Holdings raised its FY adjusted EBITDA view to $38M-$42M from $28M-$32M. Investors will want to see whether underlying profitability improved or if the refund masks weakness.
