Revenues: Ralph Lauren’s net revenues dropped 4.2% to $1,641.8 million and also missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1,648 million. On a currency neutral basis, revenues fell 6%. Revenue decline was attributable to the exit of brand, promotional activity and soft consumer demand.

Outlook: The company continues to project currency neutral net revenues to decline 8–9% in fiscal 2018. For fourth-quarter fiscal 2018, management envisions currency neutral net revenue to decrease 8-10%. Foreign currency is estimated to favorably impact the top line growth by nearly 330 basis points (bps) and 100 bps in the fourth quarter and the fiscal, respectively.

Zacks Rank: Currently, Ralph Lauren carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold), which is subject to change following the earnings announcement. You can see the complete list of today’s Zacks #1 Rank (Strong Buy) stocks here.
