Tiffany’s Same-Store Sales in the Americas Rise 5%
Lower spending by Chinese tourists put a dent in the jeweler’s third quarter results.

New York—Lower spending by Chinese tourists at Tiffany stores in the United States and Hong Kong put a dent in the jeweler’s third quarter results despite higher spending by locals.
Tiffany & Co. reported Wednesday that for the third quarter ended Oct. 31, same-store sales in the Americas rose 5 percent over last year and are up 7 percent year-to-date.
Net sales are up 5 percent (6 percent on a constant-exchange-rate basis) year-over-year to $442 million. Year-to-date, net sales in the region have risen 7 percent to $1.3 billion.
Worldwide, Tiffany saw same-store sales increase 2 percent (3 percent on a constant-exchange-rate basis) year-over-year in the quarter and net sales climb 4 percent (5 percent on a constant-exchange-rate basis) to $1.0 billion.
Year-to-date, net sales are up 9 percent and same-store sales have risen 6 percent on a constant-exchange-rate basis.
Product-wise, sales of jewelry collections—items like Tiffany T, Return to Tiffany and the new Paper Flowers collection—were stronger than any other category, rising 8 percent year-over-year in the third quarter. They are up 15 percent year-to-date.
Sales of design jewelry (Elsa Peretti, Paloma Picasso, etc.), meanwhile, fell 8 percent in the period but are up 3 percent year-to-date.
Engagement jewelry sales rose 2 percent in the third quarter and have increased 7 percent year-to-date.
During the company’s earnings call Wednesday morning, CEO Alessandro Bogliolo said the third quarter results were “close to our expectations,” with lower spending by Chinese tourists visiting Hong Kong and the United States and lower wholesale travel-retail sales in Korea subtracting from increased spending by locals in each market.
Analysts on the call asked numerous questions about customer response to the changes Tiffany has made over the past few months, including its new jewelry marketing campaign and the introduction of fresh product, like Paper Flowers and the new “Tiffany True” engagement ring.
