Kering Eyewear Reports 6% Revenue Growth in Q3 2026 Amid Stable Group Performance

Kering reported third-quarter group revenue of €3,345 million, stable on a reported basis but down 1 percent on a comparable basis year-over-year. The eyewear segment demonstrated resilience, reaching €373 million in revenue, an increase of 6 percent as reported and 4 percent on a comparable basis. Group CFO Armelle Poulou attributed this to the strength and scalability of the eyewear platform, noting growth across all regions supported by initiatives such as the Maui Jim Fall Winter 2026 launch and Lindberg’s 40th anniversary celebrations. While wholesale revenues rose 3 percent on a comparable basis, directly operated retail sales, including e-commerce, decreased by 3 percent. Kering also advanced its store network optimization, completing 105 net closures in the first nine months of 2026, exceeding its full-year objective ahead of schedule.
