In the past six months (March 2026 - September 2026), Columbia Sportswear Co. reported strong second-quarter 2026 financial results on July 30, 2026, exceeding expectations with 2% year-over-year net sales growth driven by international and e-commerce gains, despite a decline in U.S. sales. The gross margin significantly benefited from $78 million in tariff refunds, leading to raised full-year 2026 guidance for margins and earnings per share. In the first quarter of 2026, U.S. sales declined by 10%, though international sales grew, with the CEO expecting U.S. wholesale business to recover in the second half of 2026. In September 2026, Peter Rauch was appointed President of the Mountain Hardwear brand. As of September 15, 2026, the company's share price was down 11.71% over 90 days, but showed a modest year-to-date return of 0.82% and a 1-year total shareholder return of 7.04%.
