Bjørn Gulden, Chief Executive Officer of #puma SE:
“The second quarter of 2019 developed very positively for us, with sales growing 15.7% currency-adjusted and EBIT increasing 39%. All divisions and all regions saw healthy improvement. New styles of footwear sold well, apparel continued to be strong, replenishment orders for both apparel and footwear developed well and our direct-to- consumer business also performed well.
With this development in the first half-year and the current expectations for the second half, we have slightly adapted our outlook for the full year, expecting revenues to now improve around 13% in constant currency and the full-year EBIT to come in between € 410 million and € 430 million.
We would also like to mention that we are extremely happy with the cooperation with our new partner Manchester City and the entire City Football Group. The launch of their kits has been very successful and the initial sales have been higher than we both expected.”
