Tiffany expects fiscal-year revenue to be up 10 percent, with a profit of between $3.95 and $4.05 per share.
The high-end jeweler's net sales increased 7 percent in the fourth quarter ended on January 31, excluding the impact of currency fluctuations. Sales at stores open at least a year rose 5 percent.
Tiffany reported net income of $178.4 million, or $1.39 per share, for the quarter, down from $181.2 million, or $1.41 per share, a year earlier. That was also below the $1.42 per share that Wall Street analysts were expecting.
