Simplify's Take

What believers are saying

  • Q2 2026 comps rose 2.7%, the fifth straight positive quarter.
  • Bloomingdale's posted 11.3% comps in Q2 2026, its strongest second quarter ever.
  • Macy's September 2026 fall campaign and September 26 event push traffic and attachment.

What critics are saying

  • Macy's plans 14 closures in 2026, prolonging a shrinking-store revenue drag through 2027.
  • Q3 2026 guidance calls for a 0.5% sales decline and adjusted loss per share.
  • Without sustained traffic, Macy's becomes a shrinking liquidation chain, not a department store.

What makes Macy's unique

  • Macy's owns three nameplates: Macy's, Bloomingdale's, and Bluemercury, spanning value to luxury.
  • Reimagined 200 stores drive higher comps and Net Promoter Scores than the fleet.
  • Exclusive designer capsules from Tommy Hilfiger to Theophilio keep fashion relevance.

Macy's stock trades at forward P/E of 9.39 despite Q2 sales growth and raised guidance, but weak H2 outlook looms

Macy's shares have dropped 8.5% over three months, trading at a forward price-to-earnings ratio of 9.39 — well below industry and market benchmarks. The discount follows strong second-quarter results, with net sales up 1.1% to $4.87 billion and comparable sales rising 2.7%. However, the outlook is mixed. Third-quarter comparable sales are expected to range from a 0.5% decline to 0.5% growth, with adjusted earnings projected to be negative. Macy's raised full-year guidance but kept second-half sales assumptions unchanged. Investment spending and store closures present additional headwinds. The company plans to reinvest $96 million in brand building and expects fiscal 2025 store closures to create a $145 million annual sales comparison headwind.

Macy's to reinvest $96M tariff refund into furniture, jewelry price cuts and operations

Macy's plans to reinvest $96 million from a tariff refund into price cuts, marketing, staffing, and offsetting fuel costs, CEO Tony Spring told The Wall Street Journal. The retailer will reduce prices on furniture and jewellery, categories hit hard by tariffs and rising costs. Spring said furniture sales suffered when tariffs pushed prices up significantly. After lowering prices in Q2, the category showed marked improvement. The announcement followed Macy's second-quarter results showing net sales of $4.9 billion, up 1.1% year-over-year, and adjusted earnings per share of $0.63. The company raised its FY26 guidance across sales, comparable sales, adjusted EPS, and EBITDA margin. Macy's shares fell around 4% on Thursday despite the positive results.

Macy's raises guidance as 'Reimagined 200' stores outperform, Bloomingdale's posts record Q2

Macy's raised its full-year guidance following strong second-quarter performance, driven by its "Reimagined 200" stores, which outperformed the broader fleet by 80 basis points. Bloomingdale's achieved its highest second-quarter sales in 154 years. The retailer received $116 million in tariff refunds. It will flow $20 million to the bottom line whilst reinvesting the remainder in brand building and accelerating its 2027 store expansion pipeline. Management attributed a 9% increase in Average Unit Retail to shifting towards "fashion authority" positioning, prioritising premium brand tiers. The company also realised operational efficiency gains through AI-powered replenishment tools and supply chain enhancements. Gross margin guidance now assumes a 5 to 15 basis point headwind from tariffs and fuel costs, improved from the previously expected 20 to 30 basis points.

Macy's shares fall 3.3% despite Q2 beat as full-year revenue guidance misses estimates

Macy's shares fell 3.3% in premarket trading despite beating second-quarter estimates, as weak full-year revenue guidance disappointed investors. The department store reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.63, surpassing the $0.35 consensus by $0.28. Revenue reached $4.9 billion, beating the $4.78 billion estimate. Comparable sales rose 2.7%, with Bloomingdale's surging 11.3% and Bluemercury up 6.2%. However, full-year revenue guidance of $21.68 billion to $21.83 billion fell short of the $21.82 billion consensus. The adjusted EPS included a $0.23 net tariff refund benefit. Excluding this, adjusted EPS would have been $0.40. Gross margin expanded 180 basis points to 41.5%, though 180 basis points came from tariff refunds.
