Richardson, TX. September 16, 2026 – FOSSIL Group, Inc. (NASDAQ: FOSL) has been included in Newsweek’s World’s Most Trustworthy Companies 2026 ranking. This prestigious award is presented in collaboration with Statista, the world-leading statistics portal and industry ranking provider.

Trust is vital for companies as it fosters customer loyalty, strengthens brand reputation, boosts employee morale, and builds investor confidence. The World’s Most Trustworthy Companies 2026 ranking highlights those companies that have earned the highest levels of trust globally.
The World’s Most Trustworthy Companies 2026 were identified in an independent survey based on a vast sample of more than 65,000 participants in 23 industries spanning 20 countries. The participants rated companies they knew and that were headquartered in the respective country in terms of three touchpoints of trust: Investor Trust, Customer Trust, and Employee Trust. Approximately 200,000 evaluations were analyzed. For each company that received enough evaluations, a social listening analysis was conducted. This phase of the project involved a sentiment analysis of the companies on several media segments of the internet and evaluating their mentions as either positive, neutral, or negative. All stock-listed companies headquartered in one of the target countries with a revenue of over 500 million USD were considered in the study.
FOSSIL Group is honored to be recognized on Newsweek’s list of the World’s Most Trustworthy Companies 2026.
“Being named one of Newsweek’s World’s Most Trustworthy Companies underscores the dedication and hard work of every team member who upholds our core values. Acknowledgments like this fuel our momentum and inspire us to push even further as we continue building iconic brands, delivering exceptional quality, and setting new standards for transparency and trust with our customers,” said Franco Fogliato, FOSSIL Group CEO.
