Inditex pisa el acelerador en el segundo trimestre y gana 1.605 millones de euros

Inditex reported strong second quarter earnings, with sales up 9.1% between May and July, exceeding expectations. The company's profit surged 8% to 1.605 million euros, marking its highest first-half revenue and results. Inditex, led by Marta Ortega, exceeded sales of 19.755 million euros in the first half, a 7.6% increase compared to the same period last year.

Even without currency impacts, sales would have risen 9.2%. The company generated 11.005 million euros in the second quarter, a 9.1% rise and surpassing analyst forecasts. This growth outpaces the 5.8% increase in the first quarter, indicating accelerating activity as the year progresses amid challenging conditions in some markets like the US and the Middle East.

For Q3, Inditex projects a 9% sales increase in constant currency from August 1 to September 7 compared to the same period in 2025. Despite closing July with 5,444 stores, 84 fewer than a year prior, Inditex shows particular strength in Europe, where sales reached 10.173 million euros (+9.3%) during the half, representing 51.5% of total sales, up from 50.7% a year earlier.

In Spain, revenues were 3.081 million euros (+7.6%), accounting for 15.6% of the total. While the Americas and Asia reduced their share of the business, they also grew. The company reported 3.536 million euros in America, a 8.2% rise, and 2.963 million euros in Asia and the rest of the world, just 1% higher. By brand, Zara grew 4.8% in the first half, maintaining its position as the main revenue generator, though with modest growth compared to other brands.

Bershka increased sales by 16.7% in the year, Stradivarius expanded by 18.5%, and Oysho saw an impressive 21% rise. Pull&Bear's growth was 8.9%, compared to Massimo Dutti's 10.4%.
