Amer Sports, the owner of sportswear brands Arc’teryx, Salomon and Wilson, reported sales growth across the board and strong profits in the 2025 financial year.

Revenues rose by 27 per cent year-on-year to $6.5 billion, and operating profit increased by 49 per cent to $702 million during the year.

James Zheng, the company’s CEO, said the fourth quarter was a solid finish to a “breakout year”, highlighting the potential for future growth.

“We believe our unique portfolio of technical sports and outdoor brands is very well positioned for strong and profitable growth within the premium sports and outdoor market, which continues to be one of the healthiest segments across the global consumer landscape,” Zheng said.

He also welcomed the announcement of Carrie Ask as the new CEO and president of Wilson, effective March 1. Sales from the racquet sports segment of Amer Sports’ portfolio grew by 13.3 per cent year-on-year.

Technical apparel remains Amer Sport’s most profitable division, with sales in the segment reaching $2.8 billion last year. The 30.1 per cent increase in technical apparel fell just behind the 31 per cent increase in outdoor clothing sales, which brought in $2.4 billion in revenue.

“Looking ahead, given the continued momentum from our highest-margin Arc’teryx franchise, accelerating Salomon footwear growth, plus the solid foundation of our equipment franchises, we are confident in our ability to deliver another strong financial performance in 2026,” CFO Andrew Page added.

The company’s global presence is also growing, with Greater China and the Europe, Middle East and Africa (EMEA) region catching up to the success in the Americas. Asia Pacific, however, was the fastest-growing market, with sales rising by 50.7 per cent year-on-year.
