VF reported lower second-quarter profit as its Vans shoes continue to underperform prior years.

The owner of brands including The North Face, Vans and Timberland reported net income of 48 cents a share, down from 52 cents a share the year prior.

Adjusted earnings were 52 cents a share, beating analysts' expectation of 42 cents, according to FactSet.

Sales rose to $2.8 billion from $2.76 billion. Wall Street expected $2.73 billion. Vans revenue fell 9% from the year prior.

VF has been trying to turnaround its Vans brand for multiple quarters and Chief Executive Bracken Darrell said that company is "continuing to moderate" sales declines for the brand.

Last month, the company agreed to sell its Dickies brand to Bluestar Alliance for $600 million.
