BERLIN, Dec 3 (Reuters) - German fashion group Hugo Boss on Wednesday said that it aims to achieve an operating profit margin of around 12% over the medium-to-long term as part of a strategic overhaul.

The company said it would strengthen its financial base by consolidating and realigning operations to achieve an earnings before interest and taxes (EBIT) margin of 12% in the long term.

"2026 will be a year of consolidation and realignment and an important step toward positioning HUGO BOSS for long-term profitable growth," said Hugo Boss CFO Yves Mueller.
