- Tuesday, March 26, 11:56 AM A weaker-than-anticipated reading on national chain store sales for the first three weeks of the month is enough to rattle the shares of a number of mall-based retailers. Though retail execs are pointing to the weather, trend-watchers are seeing a different story (chart). Decliners: ZUMZ -3.5%, AEO -2.5%, GPS -2.8%, LTD -1.5%, CHS -2.8%, ANN -2.3%, FRAN -2.5%. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 28, 1:15 PM Did Limited Brands (LTD +3.9%) say a lot by merely reiterating its prior February guidance for low single digit comparable-store sales growth? With other retailers staying mute (J.C. Penney) or offering warnings on February sales (Wal-Mart, Target, AutoZone) - just holding serve doesn't look quite as unappetizing. During the LTD earnings call, execs highlighted how they protected the brand instead of moving hyper-promotional over the holiday shopping period (transcript). Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 27, 5:04 PM Limited (LTD): Q4 EPS of $1.76 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $3.85B beats by $0.09B. Shares -1.5% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, On the Move]
- Wednesday, December 26, 2012, 12:34 PM Many retail stocks are diving after MasterCard and ShopperTrak release data indicating holiday season sales were light. SHLD -3.6%. GPS -3%. NKE -2.9%. M -2.6%. GME -3.2%. AEO -3.6%. LTD -2.7%. ARO -3.4%. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, December 10, 2012, 4:25 PM Limited Brands (LTD) declares special dividend of $3.00/share. For shareholders of record Dec. 20. Payable Dec. 26. Ex-div date Dec. 18. Shares +2.3% AH. (PR) 1 Comment [Dividends, On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 28, 2012, 8:43 AM Mall-based retailers are on watch after Express and American Eagle Outfitters delivered Q3 numbers and Q4 guidance solid enough to infuse confidence in traders. Aeropostale (ARO), +3.5% premarket, is an early riser in what could set up to be a retail rush. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 14, 2012, 4:37 PM Limited Brands (LTD): Q3 EPS of $0.26 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $2.05B in-line. Shares -1.1% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, October 31, 2012, 10:04 AM Mall-based retailers and department stores are holding up relatively well in early trading after the effect of Hurricane Sandy was lined up as a major Q4 headwind. The trick now is to figure out which retail firms can recover lost sales. Two notables exceptions to the subdued trading pattern - J.C. Penney (JCP -4.8%) and Sears (SHLD -6.5%) - had a slightly higher percentage of stores in the path of Hurricane Sandy than the average in the sector. 12 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, August 16, 2012, 9:54 AM Limited Brands (LTD -2.4%) trades a bit lower after reporting Q2 results largely in-line with the estimates of analysts. The company continues to ride the back of one of retail's best-kept secrets - the unflappable resiliency of Victoria's Secret - to greater heights. For 10 consecutive quarters Victoria's Secret has recorded comparable store sales gains in excess of 9% - an achievement rare, if not unmatched. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, August 15, 2012, 4:34 PM Limited Brands (LTD): Q2 EPS of $0.50 beats by $0.02. Revenue of $2.4B (-2.4% Y/Y) in-line. Shares -1.3% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, July 31, 2012, 9:56 AM Cleveland Research tips off that July same-store sales for Limited Brands (LTD +1.5%) are trending strong. The research note is helping shares of LTD shrug off the weakness in the high-end retail sector that was kicked off by Coach's alarming Q2 report. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, July 5, 2012, 10:26 AM The retail sector (XRT +0.5%) ratchets higher after the dust settles from a flood of June sales reports. Investor favorites of the day include Limited (LTD +5.5%) and TJX Companies (TJX +3.5%), with both companies raising their profit outlooks (I, II). Kohl's (KSS +5.3%) is showing surprising strength off its sales miss, but a comment from the department store operator tipping off that sales trends improved over the course over the month is holding sway Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 4:32 PM Limited Brands (LTD): Q1 EPS of $0.41 in-line. Revenue of $2.15B (-2.9% Y/Y) in-line. Shares -3% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, March 13, 2012, 11:40 AM Limited (LTD +1.3%) moves up after Argus raises its price target to $55 from $48. Argus notes the apparel retailer reported higher than expected Q4 EPS and 12% comp growth at Victoria's Secret, and thinks the company remains well-positioned for further gains. It maintains its Buy rating. Comment! [On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 22, 2012, 5:04 PM More on Limited Brands' FQ4: Though results beat estimates, the company expects FQ1 EPS of $0.35-$0.40, below a $0.44 consensus. In addition, Limited expects FY13 EPS of $2.60-$2.80, below a consensus of $2.91. However, February same-store sales are expected to grow in the mid-to-high single digits, above prior guidance. A new $500M stock buyback program has been authorized. LTD -3.2% AH. (PR) Comment! [Consumer, Earnings, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 22, 2012, 4:43 PM Limited Brands (LTD): Q4 EPS of $1.50 beats by $0.04. Revenue of $3.52B (+1.7% Y/Y) beats by $50M. Shares -2.6% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
