## Exhibit 99.1

**EXHIBIT 99.1**

**Zumiez Inc. Reports Holiday 2025 Sales Results**

**North America Comparable Sales Increase 6.5%**

**Adjusting Fourth Quarter Outlook Including Raising EPS Guidance** 

LYNNWOOD, Wash., Jan. 12, 2026 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zumiez Inc. (NASDAQ: ZUMZ) a leading specialty retailer of apparel, footwear, equipment and accessories for young men and women, today announced that the Company's comparable sales for the nine-week period ended January 3, 2026, increased 2.9% from the comparable nine-week period in the prior year ending January 4, 2025.

From a regional perspective, North America comparable sales were up 6.5% and other international comparable sales, which consists of Europe and Australia, were down 8.9% over the same comparable period in the prior year.

During the nine-week period, the Women's category posted the largest positive comparable sales growth, followed by Men's, Accessories and Hardgoods. Footwear was the only category with negative comparable sales.

Based on results for the nine-week period ended January 3, 2026, the Company now anticpates fiscal 2025 fourth quarter net sales will be between $287 million and $290 million, compared to our previous guidance range of $291 million to $296 million. The decrease is driven by softer International sales. Earnings per share for the quarter is now expected to be between $1.05 and $1.10, up from the prior guidance range of $0.97 to $1.07. The increase is driven by stronger product margin in Europe and North America as well as expense management.

Rick Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of Zumiez Inc., stated, "We are pleased with the 6.5% comparable sales growth in our North America business over the holiday period, continuing the strong trends we experienced throughout the back-to-school season. At the same time, our heightened focus on full-price selling in Europe drove a 600-basis point improvement in our European product margin quarter-to-date. While European sales were less than anticipated, this product margin growth, combined with the ongoing strength in North America has allowed us to increase our earnings guidance for the quarter. We look forward to building on our recent progress in fiscal 2026 and generating greater value for our shareholder in the years to come."
