Schulman noted that the brand has "begun to see customers return to the brand they love".
Sales growth was particularly robust in the Americas and China, both regions reporting a quarterly growth of three per cent.
China has served as the focal point of a worldwide decline in luxury retail, with weakening consumer appetite creating challenges for virtually all leading luxury houses.
Robyn Duffy, consumer markets senior analyst at RSM 海角视频, suggested there would be a "sigh of relief at Burberry today" as a "period of decline in comparable sales comes to an end".
She added: "Flat store sales in the first half, compared to a steep 20 per cent drop a year ago, marks clear progress.
"Schulmann efforts to better align the design and commercial teams have strengthened the go-to-market strategy and helped reconnect the brand with its core customers."
Burberry has its head office in London with other corporate bases in Shanghai, Seoul, Hong Kong, Paris, Dubai, Milan, Barcelona, New York, Tokyo and Leeds.
