    Juliana Duque's questions to SIGNET JEWELERS (SIG) leadership • Q1 2026

    Question

    Juliana Duque, on behalf of Ike Boruchow at Wells Fargo, inquired about the comparative performance of the fashion and bridal categories, any progress on market share within each, and whether the company has seen a ramp-up in new customers from its lab-grown diamond offerings.

    Answer

    CEO J.K. Symancyk reported that the bridal recovery trend continues to move 'up and to the right,' while the fashion category saw a significant four-point sequential improvement in same-store sales. This was driven by filling assortment gaps, particularly at the sub-$500 price point, and introducing new collections like 'Stellar Allure' and 'Wembley' at Zales. He noted that while market share is formally measured annually, he believes the company is gaining traction in both categories, and new product collections are key to both customer acquisition and retention.
