Versace’s operating loss was $3 million and operating margin was (1.5) per cent, compared to operating income of $35 million and operating margin of 12.5 per cent in the prior year. The decline in operating margin rate was primarily due to expense deleverage on lower revenue.

Retail sales decreased low-single-digits while wholesale revenue increased double-digits.

Jimmy Choo’s operating loss was $5 million and operating margin was (3.6) per cent, compared to operating loss of $9 million and operating margin of (6.8) per cent in the prior year. The improvement in operating margin rate was primarily due to expense leverage on higher revenue compared to the prior year, said the report.

Cost of goods sold were $763 million, compared to $876 million in H1 of previous year and gross profit was $1,383 million, down from $1,644 million YoY.

John D Idol, the company's chairman and chief executive officer, said, “Overall, we were disappointed with our Q2 results as performance continued to be impacted by softening demand globally for fashion luxury goods. Despite the challenging global retail environment, we remain focused on executing our strategic initiatives to deliver long-term sustainable growth across all three of our luxury houses.”

“Versace, Jimmy Choo and Michael Kors continued to resonate with consumers as evidenced by the 10.9 million new consumers added across our databases, representing 13 per cent growth versus last year. This reflects the strong brand equity and enduring value of our three iconic houses,” continued Idol.
