New galleries are expected to open inDuring the call, RH’s debt position was a worry for analysts like Morgan Stanley’s Simeon Gutman, who asked about RH’s plan to be debt-free by 2029. Friedman said the firm remains focused on asset sales to pay off its $2.4 billion debt, having most recently sold a property in Aspen.
“We’ve meaningfully higher brand awareness, and we’ve been open out in the Cotswolds, the English countryside now for three years. We’re kind of just getting started in Paris, we’re just open in Milan, we like what we see,” he said.
As a result of its better-than-expected first-quarter results, RH raised its outlook for fiscal year 2026. It raised its revenue growth forecast to 4.5 percent to 8 percent from 4 to 8 percent. In the second quarter of 2026, it sees revenues rising between 0.5 percent and 2.25 percent. WWD and Women's Wear Daily are part of Penske Media Corporation. © 2026 Fairchild Publishing, LLC.
