The company overnight said it now expected to make an operating loss in 2025 – but did not elaborate — and added that annual sales would fall by a low double digit percentage, compared with prior guidance of low-to-mid single digit-growth.
It also warned US tariffs on imports would cut 2025 gross profit by around €80m.
Puma said it expected currency-adjusted sales for the year to fall by at least 10%, having previously forecast low- to mid-single-digit growth.
Second-quarter currency-adjusted sales of €1.94bn were below forecasts as North America sales fell 9.1% and Europe 3.9%.
