On Thursday, analysts’ predictions for quarterly profits of Canada Goose Holdings Inc were underestimated. Canada Goose experienced a 61 percent jump in quarterly profit, and this fortune can be credited from a plan to invest more in company-owned stores and also ecommerce.

In 2016, luxury clothes company made a risky move in opening its own shops at a time when other retailers were struggling with declining sales and decreasing margins. They were relying on their luxury tag to keep them afloat. Previously they sold their products through wholesalers, but there profits dramatically increased with the shift in plan.

The luxury retailer noticed a huge increase in their net income within three months. The income increase to $62.9 million or 56 Canadian cents per share. This is a huge jump from their original income standing at $39.1 million or 38 Canadian cents per share.

Original estimates claimed the company would earn 48 Canadian cents on the share, but Canadian shocked everyone when it earned 58 Canadian cents.

Chief Executive Officer, Dani Reiss, made a statement in saying, “In our peak selling season, we delivered strong performance across geographies, channels and categories this quarter.”

The margins between stores and online sales show much greater success than the margins from its wholesale channel. During the quarter, margins of stores and online sales were at 76.4 percent while its wholesale margins were at 51 percent.
