Buckle (ISIN US1184401065) was trading at EUR 38.17 at Lang & Schwarz on October 2, 2026 at 1:40 p.m. CEST, up 0.26 percent versus the prior close of EUR 38.07. On September 14, 2026, the company authorized a USD 0.35 quarterly dividend payable on October 29, 2026, according to BusinessWire.

Dividend sets the near-term date

The dividend will go to shareholders of record at the close of business on October 15, 2026. That creates two concrete dates for income-oriented holders: the record date and the October 29 payment date, while the quarterly rate remains USD 0.35 per share.

The payout follows Buckle's second-quarter report for the 13 weeks ended August 1, 2026. The latest filing lists 51,515,996 shares outstanding at quarter end, giving the declared distribution a cash requirement of roughly USD 18.0 million when applied to that share count.

Revenue grows while earnings soften

For the second quarter of fiscal 2026, net sales increased 4.60 percent to USD 319.82 million from USD 305.74 million a year earlier, while net income declined to USD 44.41 million from USD 45.01 million, according to Boardroom Alpha. Diluted earnings per share fell to USD 0.87 from USD 0.89 in the prior-year quarter.

The margin picture was mixed. Gross profit reached USD 153.02 million, lifting gross margin to 47.80 percent from 47.40 percent, but operating margin fell to 17.40 percent from 18.40 percent as selling, general and administrative costs increased.

Women's business offsets a softer risk

Management said women's sales increased 9.50 percent year over year and represented 50.00 percent of total sales in the second quarter. Online sales rose 2.30 percent to USD 44.60 million, while comparable-store sales increased 2.10 percent, according to The Globe and Mail.

The counter-factor is men's denim, where sales declined 3.50 percent year over year. Buckle ended the quarter with 446 stores in 42 states, and the company said it planned five additional store openings and four more remodels during the remainder of fiscal 2026.
