businesswire.com

Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. Announces First Quarter Fiscal Year 2027 Financial Results IRVINE, Calif.--( BUSINESS WIRE)--Boot Barn Holdings, Inc. (NYSE: BOOT) (the “Company,” “we,” “us,” and “our”) today announced its financial results for the first fiscal quarter ended June 27, 2026. A Supplemental Financial Presentation is available at investor.bootbarn.com.

For the quarter ended June 27, 2026 compared to the quarter ended June 28, 2025:

John Hazen, Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are pleased with our strong start to fiscal 2027, as first quarter results exceeded our expectations and reflected broad-based strength across the business. Our team continues to execute at a high level, delivering solid same store sales growth, expanding margin, and opening new stores that continue to perform above our expectations.”

Mr. Hazen continued, “Exiting our first quarter, fiscal July sales moderated given the more challenging year-over-year comparisons. While July's sales came in slightly below our expectations, we believe the shortfall primarily reflected the impact of seasonal events and concerts on our business during a lower-volume month. We remain confident in our outlook for the balance of the fiscal year and believe our four strategic initiatives continue to strengthen our competitive position and support long-term profitable growth.”

Forward Looking Statements

This press release contains forward-looking statements that are subject to risks and uncertainties. All statements other than statements of historical fact included in this press release are forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements refer to the Company’s current expectations and projections relating to, by way of example and without limitation, the Company’s financial condition, liquidity, profitability, results of operations, margins, plans, objectives, strategies, future performance, business, and industry. You can identify forward-looking statements by the fact that they do not relate strictly to historical or current facts. These statements may include words such as “anticipate”, “estimate”, “expect”, “project”, “plan“, “intend”, “believe”, “may”, “might”, “will”, “could”, “should”, “can have”, “likely”, “outlook”, and other words and terms of similar meaning in connection with any discussion of the timing or nature of future operating or financial performance or other events, but not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. These forward-looking statements are based on assumptions that the Company’s management has made in light of their industry experience and on their perceptions of historical trends, current conditions, expected future developments and other factors that they believe are appropriate under the circumstances. As you consider this press release, you should understand that these statements are not guarantees of performance or results. They involve risks, uncertainties (some of which are beyond the Company’s control) and assumptions. These risks, uncertainties, and assumptions include, but are not limited to, the following: decreases in consumer spending due to declines in consumer confidence, local economic conditions, or changes in consumer preferences; the impact that import tariffs and other trade restrictions imposed by the U.S. or other countries have had, and may continue to have, on our product costs and changes to U.S. or other countries’ trade policies and tariff and import/export regulations; the Company’s ability to effectively execute on its growth strategy; and the Company’s failure to maintain and enhance its strong brand image, to compete effectively, to maintain good relationships with its key suppliers, and to improve and expand its exclusive product offerings. The Company discusses the foregoing risks and other risks in greater detail under the heading “Risk factors” in the periodic reports filed by the Company with the Securities and Exchange Commission. Although the Company believes that these forward-looking statements are based on reasonable assumptions, you should be aware that many factors could affect the Company’s actual financial results and cause them to differ materially from those anticipated in the forward-looking statements. Because of these factors, the Company cautions that you should not place undue reliance on any of these forward-looking statements. New risks and uncertainties arise from time to time, and it is impossible for the Company to predict those events or how they may affect the Company. Further, any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which it is made. Except as required by law, the Company does not intend to update or revise the forward-looking statements in this press release after the date of this press release.
