Burberry Group PLC, trading under the symbol BURBY on the OTC exchange, is a renowned British luxury fashion house known for its iconic trench coats and distinctive tartan pattern. The company operates in the high-end fashion sector, competing with other luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Gucci. Burberry's recent financial performance highlights its ongoing efforts to revitalize its market presence.
On November 13, 2025, BURBY reported its earnings, achieving an earnings per share (EPS) of $0.007, surpassing the estimated EPS of -$0.02. This positive surprise in earnings reflects the company's strategic initiatives under CEO Joshua Schulman. Despite a slight miss in revenue, with actual revenue at approximately $1.36 billion compared to the estimated $1.38 billion, the company is showing signs of recovery.
Burberry's shares rose by 4% as the company reported a return to like-for-like sales growth in the second quarter. For the 26 weeks ending September 27, 2025, Burberry's revenue was £1.03 billion, a 5% decrease at reported rates. However, the company achieved an adjusted operating profit of £19 million, a significant improvement from a £47 million loss the previous year, as highlighted by the Wall Street Journal.
Despite a £37 million restructuring charge leading to a reported operating loss of £18 million, Burberry's gross profit margins increased by 410 basis points to 67.9%. This improvement in margins indicates effective cost management and a successful revamp of its product offerings. The Autumn/Winter 2025 collections, particularly outerwear and scarves, experienced strong demand, contributing to the positive sales momentum.
Burberry's financial ratios provide further insight into its current position. The price-to-sales ratio of about 1.82 suggests that investors are willing to pay $1.82 for every dollar of sales. The debt-to-equity ratio of about 2.11 shows that the company has more than twice as much debt as equity, while a current ratio of approximately 1.49 indicates a reasonable level of liquidity to cover short-term liabilities.
