Steven Madden’s $665.9 Million Quarter — Can Kurt Geiger Keep The Momentum Going?

Steven Madden Limited reported second quarter fiscal 2026 results demonstrating notable growth in both revenue and earnings, underpinned by strength across its brand portfolio and effective strategic execution. Consolidated revenue increased 19.1% to $665.9 million compared to the prior year, with organic growth excluding the Kurt Geiger acquisition of 11.2%. The flagship Steve Madden brand outperformed, with a 9% global comparable sales increase driven by robust demand in women’s dress and casual footwear, men’s loafers, and a rebound in handbags featuring trending materials. Online interest in the brand rose significantly, with global online searches up 71%, prompting an upward revision of full-year revenue forecast to a high single-digit increase. The Kurt Geiger London brand advanced through retail expansion, adding two full-price stores in premium U.S. malls, bringing total stores to seven, which delivered strong comp store sales growth of 12% and healthy profitability.
