American Eagle

The stock plunged about 11.6% in premarket trading even though adjusted EPS of $0.79 beat expectations. Earnings were materially supported by one-time duty refunds of $161 million, which inflated the operating margin by roughly 1,170 basis points and will not recur. Core brand American Eagle saw declining comparable-store sales, while Aerie and OFFLINE grew strongly; inventory rose 14%, and the outlook for Q3 signals a sharp decline in operating income. Investors reduced expectations for the remainder of the fiscal year, pushing the share price toward its 52-week low. » Mais em de.investing.com

American Eagle reported Q2 EPS of $0.79 and revenue of $1.38 billion, both above analyst expectations.

American Eagle Outfitters publishes quarterly results tonight; Wall Street expectations are for revenue of about $1.37 billion (+6.5%) with earnings per share falling sharply from $0.45 to $0.21.

The Aerie brand remains the growth driver with around 25% comparable sales growth, but the operating environment remains tense due to tariff risks. » Mais em deraktionaer.de
