Levi Strauss beat Wall Street estimates for fourth-quarter sales and profit on Wednesday, buoyed by strong demand for its denim jeans despite pressure from higher US import tariffs and dampened consumer spending in the country. Shares of the company, which forecast annual profit below estimates, were down about 2 percent in extended trading. The company said it will fully offset the impacts of US import tariffs through the year helped by pricing strategies. The company posted an adjusted profit per share of 41 cents, beating analysts’ estimates of 39 cents per share. It expects annual adjusted earnings per share in the range of $1.40 to $1.46, ‌below analysts’ average estimate of $1.48.
