MILAN--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Jul. 30, 2025-- Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. (NYSE:ZGN) (the “Company” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Ermenegildo Zegna Group” or the “Group”) today announced unaudited revenues of €927.7 million in H1 2025, -3.4% YoY from €960.1 million in H1 2024 (-2.0% organic). In the second quarter, revenues reached €468.9 million, -5.7% YoY (-2.6% organic).

YoY performance at reported currencies in Q2 2025 was notably affected by the appreciation of the Euro against key currencies such as the US dollar, the Renminbi, and other currencies linked to the US dollar. The organic results included herein are calculated at constant exchange rates, therefore excluding the effect of such significant currency fluctuations and offering a more accurate reflection of the underlying business trend.

Ermenegildo “Gildo” Zegna, Chairman and CEO of the Ermenegildo Zegna Group, commented: “The strong organic DTC channel performance of +8% in Q2 2025 for the Group demonstrates our strategic initiatives and actions taken are yielding results, even though the sector navigates a continuously challenging environment.

ZEGNA and Thom Browne each grew by +7% in the DTC channel while TOM FORD FASHION increased by +11%. In terms of regions, the Americas and the Middle East continued to sustain robust momentum.

The recent months were also marked by several pivotal milestones for the Group and our brands, starting with our first ZEGNA fashion show outside Milan in June, along with Villa Zegna Dubai.

Looking at Thom Browne, I welcome Sam Lobban as the brand’s new CEO. With his extensive background in merchandising and customer-first mindset, Sam is exceptionally well-suited to lead this brand in capturing its unexpressed potential. Moreover, I am pleased that Temasek has chosen to invest in our Group, recognizing the strength of our vision and our Group’s long-term growth potential. With Temasek by our side, I am even more confident in our ability to realize our ambitions.”

Revenues Analysis for the Six and Three Months Ended June 30, 2025

Intersegment eliminations include revenues from products that the Textile and Other lines (included in the Zegna segment) sell to the Group’s brands.

Zegna segment

In H1 2025, revenues for the Zegna segment – which includes the ZEGNA brand, textile, and other (revenues mainly relating to third party brands) – amounted to €660.3 million, compared to €660.5 million in H1 2024, flat YoY (+1.6% organic). Revenues in Q2 2025 were €327.0 million, -2.6% YoY (+1.0% organic), reflecting the positive organic performance of the ZEGNA brand and the negative performance of the Textile division.

ZEGNA brand revenues were €570.4 million in H1 2025, compared to €566.1 million in H1 2024, +0.8% YoY (+2.6% organic). Revenues in Q2 2025 were €277.5 million, -2.0% YoY (+2.2% organic), driven by solid growth in the DTC channel, in particular in the Americas, where performance sequentially accelerated compared to Q1 2025. EMEA also reported solid double-digit organic growth, with the Middle East outperforming within the region.

Textile revenues were €67.1 million in H1 2025, compared to €71.8 million in H1 2024, -6.6% YoY (-6.3% organic), largely reflecting declining orders from brands outside the Group. The textile revenue trend improved slightly in Q2 2025, with revenues -3.8% YoY and organic. Other revenues, which mainly include revenues from the sale of finished product to third-party brands⁴, were €8.4 million in H1, compared to €7.0 million in H1 2024, +19.2% YoY (+19.3% organic).

Thom Browne segment

Revenues in Q2 2025 were €65.1 million, -25.9% YoY (-23.9% organic). The trend in the second quarter was significantly affected by the performance of the wholesale channel, which more than offset the growth recorded in the DTC channel. Since 2024, the brand has been streamlining its presence in the wholesale channel to focus on direct distribution.

Thom Browne brand results were substantially aligned to those of the segment, with H1 2025 revenues at €129.2 million, compared to €166.7 million in H1 2024, -22.5% YoY (-21.7% organic).

Revenues in Q2 2025 were €85.2 million, +2.1% YoY (+4.1% organic), driven by solid double-digit organic growth in the DTC channel.

DTC Revenues Analysis

In H1 2025, Group DTC revenues were €698.0 million, representing 82% of the Group’s branded product revenues, compared to €669.6 million in H1 2024, +4.2% YoY (+6.1% organic). DTC revenues reached €352.9 million in Q2 2025, compared to €341.6 million in Q2 2024, +3.3% YoY (+7.5% organic).

ZEGNA DTC revenues were €504.5 million in H1 2025, compared to €486.6 million in H1 2024, +3.7% YoY (+5.6% organic). In Q2 2025, the brand’s DTC revenues were €253.7 million, +2.7% YoY (+7.1% organic), driven by the Americas with strong double-digit growth, which sequentially accelerated compared to Q1 2025, followed by solid double-digit growth in EMEA, in particular in the Middle East. Performance in the DTC channel in the Greater China Region (GCR) in Q2 2025 remained negative and broadly in line with Q1 2025. On June 30, 2025, ZEGNA counted 286 Directly Operated Stores (DOS), with three net openings in Q2 2025, including an additional store in Dubai Mall (Level Shoes) and in Porto Cervo, Italy.

Thom Browne DTC revenues were €92.6 million in H1 2025, +3.0% YoY (+5.0% organic). In Q2 2025, the brand’s DTC revenues were €46.4 million, +2.4% YoY (+6.6% organic), driven by performance in the Americas, where the brand opened some important stores during the quarter. On June 30, Thom Browne’s DTC network reached 120 DOS, with three net openings in Q2, including Los Angeles Melrose, New YorkMadison and Tokyo Ginza.

TOM FORD FASHION DTC revenues were €100.9 million in H1 2025, up 8.4% YoY (+9.9% organic). In Q2 2025, the brand’s DTC revenues were €52.8 million, +7.1% YoY (+10.7% organic), with all regions showing positive organic performance and EMEA delivering the strongest results. On June 30, 2025, TOM FORD FASHION had 66 DOS, with one net opening in the second quarter in Hong Kong Pacific Place.

Wholesale Branded Revenues Analysis

In H1 2025, Group wholesale branded revenues were €154.2 million, compared to €211.7 million in H1 2024, -27.1% YoY (-26.5% organic). In Q2 2025, wholesale branded revenues came in at €74.8 million, compared to €112.6 million in Q2 2024, -33.6% YoY (-32.5% organic).

ZEGNA wholesale revenues were €65.9 million in H1 2025, -17.1% YoY (-15.4% organic). In Q2 2025, the brand reported wholesale revenues of €23.8 million, -34.4% YoY (-31.1% organic). In line with management’s strategy, the negative wholesale performance in H1 includes the impact of some store conversions into retail concessions in H2 2024, and tighter control over iconic products. Q2 2025 performance also reflects a shift in delivery timing.

Thom Browne wholesale revenues were €36.5 million in H1, -52.4% YoY and organic. In Q2 2025, the brand’s revenues in the wholesale channel were €18.6 million, -56.0% YoY (-55.8% organic), reflecting the previously announced strategy to streamline the brand’s wholesale presence to focus on the DTC channel.

TOM FORD FASHION wholesale revenues were €51.8 million in H1, -6.5% YoY (-6.3% organic). In Q2 2025, the brand’s wholesale revenues reached €32.4 million, -5.0% YoY (-5.3% organic), mainly driven by some previous conversions of stores into retail concessions.

In H1 2025, Group revenues in EMEA were €328.9 million, -2.3% YoY (-1.9% organic), representing 35% of the Group’s revenues. In Q2 2025, EMEA revenues were €174.8 million, -2.9% YoY (-1.9% organic), impacted by the negative results in the wholesale channel at the three brands, notwithstanding the solid DTC positive performance, largely at ZEGNA and TOM FORD FASHION.

H1 2025 revenues in the Americas were €262.7 million, +6.8% YoY (+9.3% organic), representing 28% of the Group’s revenues. In Q2 2025, revenues in the Americas were €137.7 million, +4.5% YoY (+9.8% organic), driven by the strong performance of the ZEGNA and Thom Browne DTC channel.

H1 2025 revenues in the GCR were €223.1 million, -16.2% YoY (-14.7% organic), representing 24% of the Group’s revenues. In Q2 2025, GCR revenues were at €99.8 million, -21.3% YoY (-17.1% organic), still impacted by a subdued consumer environment in the region. The slight sequential deterioration in organic terms compared to the first quarter is linked to the performance of the wholesale channel, in particular at Thom Browne.

H1 2025 revenues in the Rest of APAC were €111.5 million, +1.4% YoY (+3.4% organic), representing 12% of the Group’s revenues. In Q2 2025, revenues in the region were €55.7 million, -3.3% YoY (-1.0% organic). Performance in Q2 was impacted by the demanding base of comparison in Japan for the whole sector and a more subdued consumer confidence in Korea.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures

The Group’s management monitors and evaluates operating and financial performance using several non-IFRS financial measures including: revenues on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency) and revenues on an organic growth basis (organic or organic growth). The Group’s management believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding the Group’s financial performance and financial condition, and improve the ability of management and investors to assess and compare the financial performance and financial position of the Group with those of other companies. They also provide comparable measures that facilitate management’s ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other strategic and operational decisions. While similar measures are widely used in the industry in which the Group operates, the financial measures that the Group uses may not be comparable to other similarly named measures used by other companies nor are they intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance or financial position as prepared in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards. A definition, explanation of relevance and a reconciliation of each non-IFRS financial measure to the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with IFRS Accounting Standards are set out below.

Revenues on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency)

In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on a constant currency basis (Constant Currency), which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation from our subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the Euro.

We calculate Constant Currency revenues by applying the current period average foreign currency exchange rates to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.

We use revenues on a Constant Currency basis to analyze how our underlying revenues have changed between periods independent of the effects of foreign currency translation.

Revenues on a Constant Currency basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency translation provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.

Revenues on an organic growth basis (organic or organic growth)

In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on an organic growth basis (organic or organic growth). Organic growth is calculated as the change in revenues from period to period, excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee.

In calculating organic performance, the following adjustments are made to revenues:

1. Foreign exchange – Current period average foreign currency exchange rates are used to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.
2. Acquisitions and disposals – Revenues generated by businesses and operations acquired in the current year are excluded. Revenues generated by businesses and operations acquired in the prior year are excluded from the current year for the same period that corresponds to the pre-acquisition period in the prior year. Additionally, where a business or operation was a customer prior to an acquisition, the related pre-acquisition revenues are excluded from the current and prior periods. Revenues generated by businesses and operations disposed of in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods as applicable.
3. Changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee – Revenues generated from license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee that are new or terminated in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods (except if the effects are already included in acquisitions and disposals). Additionally, revenues generated from license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee that experienced a structural change in the scope or perimeter in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods, including changes to product categories, distribution channels or geographies of the underlying license agreements.

We believe the presentation of revenues on an organic basis is useful to better understand and analyze the underlying change in the Group’s revenues from period to period on a consistent perimeter and constant currency basis.

Revenues on an organic basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.

The tables below show a reconciliation of reported revenue performance to Constant Currency, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, and to organic performance, which excludes also acquisitions and disposals and changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee, by segment, by brand and product line, by distribution channel and by geographic area for the six months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the six months ended June 30, 2024 (H1 2025 vs H1 2024) and for the three months ended June 30, 2025 compared to the three months ended June 30, 2024 (Q2 2025 vs Q2 2024).
