考虑到疫情期间品牌销售严重受挫，Canada Goose计划限制其parka系列在百货商店的分销。
该公司在最新发布的业绩公告中表示，目前的重中之重是恢复品牌的自营门店销售。与批发销售渠道相比，自营门店可以为公司实现更大的利润率。
据路透社报道，Canada Goose的股票在今年下跌了40％，但在上周三上涨了11％，预计品牌在第二季度的收入很少。
随着各国都严格保持安全的社交距离，百货商店正面临着严峻的零售环境，并且不得暂停营业。路透社指出，疫情将造成严重的经济衰退，且短期内人们的消费需求不会快速反弹。
Canada Goose表示，由于商店需要处理的库存过多，预计新订单会减少。公司期望直营门店和电商渠道的销售能够快速恢复。
Canada Goose is limiting distribution of its luxury parkasto department stores after its sales suffered during the coronavirus crisis.
Releasing its earnings statement on Wednesday, the company said recovery for its own retail outlets is a top priority, where it can make greater profit margins than selling via wholesale.
According to Reuters, shares in Canada Goose Holdings fell 40 percent this year, but saw an 11 percent rise on Wednesday, despite a projection of little revenue in the current quarter.
Department stores are facing challenging retail conditions with forced closures as countries navigate strict social distancing rules.“With a deep recession on the horizon, demand is not expected to bounce backany time soon,” reported Reuters.
Canada Goose said it expects lower orders as stores deal with excess inventory. The company also expects recovery of its own stores and e-commerce to be faster than that of its wholesale partners.
Tiffany says same-store sales fell 44% in the fiscal first quarter
Tiffany第一季度同店销售大跌44%，中国市场复苏强劲

近日，Tiffany & Co.发布了最新业绩公报，其珠宝业务在中国市场的表现有明显的反弹迹象，得益于疫情的有效控制。此外，备受业内关注的收购情况品牌也做了最新的说明，其与LVMH集团的合并正在消除监管障碍。
据财报显示，第一季度（截至4月30日）由于疫情的影响，品牌在全球的门店暂停营业，同店销售大跌44%。品牌CEO Alessandro Bogliolo在财报中指出，中国市场正在强劲复苏。
品牌净亏损达6,460万美元，即每股亏损53美分；而去年同期利润为1.25亿美元，每股盈利1.03美元。销售额仅为5.56亿美元，同比下滑45%。
Refinitiv分析师此前预期品牌的销售额为7.01亿美元，每股盈利3美分。但新冠疫情的爆发使品牌最终的业绩表现无法与预期相比较。
自去年11月LVMH集团宣布以162亿美元收购Tiffany & Co.后，该交易一直是业内关注的热点之一。然而因疫情大范围蔓延，使得品牌陷入不利境地，针对此次收购也有不少质疑的声音。
而LVMH集团在疫情期间也受到了一定的损失，有消息透露，集团CEO Bernard Arnault可能会压价收购品牌。不过品牌CEO Bogliolo表示，品牌与LVMH和合并已经获得俄罗斯、墨西哥当局的批准，其他重要的监管审批仍在进行中。
目前Tiffany & Co.的股价一直低于此前双方协商的135美元。截至本周一，Tiffany & Co.收盘价为112.18亿美元，在周二的交易中上涨了2%以上。
考虑到疫情在全球范围内尚未得到有效的控制，未来几个月对于珠宝商来说还将面临着巨大的挑战。聚会、公共活动减少，使人们对于购置新耳环、手镯等配饰的消费需求下降；此外，一些婚礼的策划也被搁置。
截至4月30日，品牌在全球的324家门店有70%受疫情影响暂停营业，订婚系列珠宝订单下降了近50%，是下滑幅度最大的品类。
零售咨询公司GlobalData的常务董事NeilSaunders表示，社交活动的减少对品牌的销售是极为不利的；另外，品牌的旅游销售也受到重创，因为前往纽约等美国主要旅游城市的游客越来越少。
Saunders认为，仅中国市场复苏并不能预示其他市场消费者的反应，早在疫情前，Tiffany就在中国市场实现了双位数的增长。
Tiffany & Co.的CEO在财报中也肯定了中国市场的业绩表现，并计划进一步扩大品牌在中国市场的销售，拓展线上渠道，增强品牌组合和创新。
但看中国市场，品牌的同店销售在2、3月分别下降了约85％和15％，但在4月和5月再次上升。与去年同期相比，4月的销售额增长了30％，5月的销售额增长了约90％。
全球电子商务销售额增长了23％，得益于美国和英国市场的推动，其销售额分别增长了14％和15％。
Tiffany & Co. said its jewelry business is rebounding in China after the coronavirus pandemic and its merger with French luxury retailer LVMH is clearing regulatory hurdles.
The U.S. jewelry maker said Tuesday in an earnings release that its same-store sales were down about 44% in the fiscal first quarter asthe pandemic shuttered shopping malls and stores across the globe. Yet CEO Alessandro Bogliolo pointed to China as “indicative that a robust recovery isunderway.”
Tiffany’s swung to a net loss of $64.6 million, or 53cents a share, from earnings of $125 million, or $1.03 a share, a year ago. Revenue fell 45% to $555.5 million.
Analysts surveyed by Refinitiv were expecting Tiffany to earn 3 cents a share on sales of $701 million, but the coronavirus pandemic has made comparisons with estimates difficult to make.
LVMH owns high-end companies from Louis Vuitton to Bvlgari. The luxury goods group agreed to buy Tiffany in November for $16.2 billion.
The coronavirus pandemic, however, threw the deal intodoubt. As stores temporarily shuttered and many sales evaporated, LVMH CEOBernard Arnault looked to lower the price of buying the U.S. jewelry chain,according to people familiar with the matter.
Shares of Tiffany have been trading below the companies’agreed-upon price of $135 per share. Shares closed Monday at $122.18. They were up more than 2% in trading Tuesday.
The jeweller may face headwinds in the months ahead. Asthe risk of Covid-19 continues and the public waits for a vaccine, people are throwing fewer parties and skipping events where they’d typically wear a pairof earrings or show off a shiny new bracelet. Many couples have put weddings onhold.
Neil Saunders, managing director of retail consulting firm GlobalData, said that drop in socializing hurts Tiffany. He said the companywill also lose business, as fewer tourists travel to major U.S. cities like New York.
He said the resurgence of jewelry sales in China isn’t apredictor of how customers will respond in other countries. Even before the pandemic, he said, Chinese customers were getting wealthier and driving double-digit growth of Tiffany sales there.
Bogliolo said in the earnings release that the company —along with other retailers — has been battered by the pandemic, but said its brand is strong. He said the company’s focus on expanding sales in China, investing in its websites and expanding its jewelry collection prior to the pandemic has made it more resilient.
And, he said, the merger with LVMH recently got regulatory approval to move forward with the deal from antitrust officials in Russia and Mexico, he said. Other key regulatory approvals are still pending.
The company’s Chief Financial Officer Mark Erceg saidTiffany has “ample cash on hand” and is in compliance with debt covenants, as of April 30. It amended some of its debt agreements and pulled back on capital spending to as it navigates uncertain times, he said.
Tiffany said its jewellery sales dropped off significantly in the three-month period, while most of its stores were closed. About 70% of its 324 stores were closed as of April 30, when the fiscal first quarterended. Engagement jewelry declined by nearly 50%, more than any other category.
In China, same-store sales were down about 85% and 15% during the first and second months of the quarter, but have picked up again in April and May. He said sales jumped by 30% during April and about 90% in May, compared to the same period a year prior.
E-commerce sales grew by 23% across the globe. That was fuelled by the U.S. and United Kingdom, where sales were up 14% and 15%, respectively.
