11:47 AM EDT, 08/27/2026 (MT Newswires) -- Williams-Sonoma's (WSM) Q2 results were once again strong with the company also raising its full-year outlook, RBC Capital Markets said in a note emailed Thursday. The company is "gaining share, has proven its cost flexibility, and has a strong balance sheet, which in our view makes it deserving of the premium multiple," the note said. RBC also noted that all of Williams-Sonoma's banners contributed to the comparable sales growth "even as the team continued to increase penetration of full priced selling."
