- Monday, May 20, 7:36 PM More on Urban Outfitters (URBN): Q1 beats on a per share basis but comes up short on revenue. Net profit rose 39% Y/Y as the clothing retailer posted record revenue and margins widened to 36.8% from 35.6% on fewer markdowns at Anthropologie. Comp retail sales, including catalog and online businesses, rose 9%, including 6% growth at its namesake brand, 8% at Anthropologie and 44% at Free People. Direct-to-consumer comp net sales were 14% higher, while sales at the company's wholesale business jumped 16%. Shares -4.1% AH. Comment! [Consumer, Earnings, On the Move]
- Monday, May 20, 4:08 PM Urban Outfitters (URBN): Q1 EPS of $0.32 beats by $0.03. Revenue of $648M misses by $7.08M. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News]
- Wednesday, May 15, 1:51 PM Perhaps take it with a grain of salt, but a surprising 44% of consumers responding to a survey on the impact of an online sales tax say they will buy less items online if the legislation is passed into law. The number rises to 75% for the 18-year to 25-year old demographic (ZUMZ, ANF, URBN, ARO, BKE, VRA). Though seemingly a bad development for Amazon (AMZN -0.6%) and eBay (EBAY), many retail analysts thinks those shopping habits are pretty hard to break. 5 Comments [Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 7, 2:38 PM Urban Outfitters (URBN +4.2%) racks up a tidy gain after Wells Fargo upped its rating on the retailer to Outperform from Market Perform. The company has some interesting potential with the Asian market untapped and its e-commerce channel firing on all cylinders. Comment! [Consumer]
- Tuesday, May 7, 9:29 AM Retail sales numbers for April could be a tad weaker than expected after weekly reports from Redbook and ICSC-Goldman on chain store sales both came in a bit below expectations. Retail read-through: Weather and swings in gas prices seemed to impact store traffic to malls (KSS, DDS, JCP, LTD, GPS, ANF, AEO) and supercenters (WMT, COST TGT), but economists think consumer confidence on the high end (TIF, RL, SKS, COH, BBBY) just might be on the rise. Also, with online sales de-emphasized in the weekly chain store reports - Internet whiz kids Macy's (M) and Urban Outfitters (URBN) could still outperform even if mall parking lots aren't packed. 1 Comment [Consumer, U.S. Economy]
- Friday, April 12, 11:47 AM Retailers start to feverishly launch and promote their spring lines after the weather in March gave them a very small window to work with. Though retail sales came in decidedly sluggish last month, on-trend firms such as Zumiez (ZUMZ -0.6%) and Limited Brands (LTD +0.8%) bucked the trend neatly. Watch Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -2.1%), Francesca's Holdings (FRAN +1%), and Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%) in April tips Janney Capital Markets. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Friday, April 12, 10:08 AM The percentage of women shoppers moving toward buying items online continues to increase at a rapid rate. According to a market survey, 89% of women now use online browsing over store hopping to compare items and 47% complete their purchases online compared to 45% in stores. The trend works in the favor of retailers with thriving e-commerce and mobile channels. Limited Brands (LTD -1.3%), Macy's (M +2.1%), and Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%) come to mind - while Amazon (AMZN -0.4%) doesn't mind the coach potato shopping syndrome one little bit either. 2 Comments [Consumer]
- Wednesday, April 3, 11:04 AM Will the recent bout of cold weather in the U.S. amount to a hill of beans to U.S. apparel retailers? Though the late start to the spring selling season is sure to give under-performing companies a handy excuse, analysts note that players with strong online channels and growth potential from overseas operations could ride out the bumpy quarter just fine. Gap (GPS +1.7%), Urban Outfitters (URBN -0.6%), Limited Brands (LTD +0.3%), and VF Corp (VFC +0.5%) come to mind. Comment! [Consumer, Quick Ideas]
- Tuesday, April 2, 9:13 AM Retail watch: A surprisingly strong February and March sales tally for Urban Outfitters (URBN) may have very little read-through to other mall-based retailers as indicated by ICSC's downward revision for retail sales. In the case of Urban Outfitters, a strong online channel may have been partially behind the sales boost - a driver not every retailer can count on. URBAN +5.6% premarket. Comment!

Premarket gainers: BGCP +47%. OMPI +14%. HUM +10%. NUAN +9%. URBN +6%.
Losers: NAT -12%. AFFY -7%. Comment! [On the Move] - Tuesday, April 2, 7:57 AM Urban Outfitter (URBN) estimates sales rose in the high single digits during February and March, according to a new SEC filing (10-K). If the mark holds up for the quarter it could help the company beat estimates and stand out as a retail winner in a subdued quarter for the mall-based sector. URBN +2.6% premarket. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, April 1, 8:58 AM An extended period of cool temperatures across the U.S. may have hurt hurt retailers which were depending upon selling spring collections in stores during March. What to watch: Companies with strong online channels such as Williams Sonoma (WSM), Urban Outfitters (URBN), and Macy's (M) may have taken some more market share during Q1 if more consumers shopped from their couches. 1 Comment [Consumer]
- Tuesday, March 26, 11:20 AM Urban Outfitters (URBN -1.4%) is in talks with Nasty Gal about a potential acquisition, according to reports. Last year, the edgy e-commerce website rang up close to $128M in sales. Comment! [Consumer, M&A]
- Tuesday, March 19, 12:32 PM Teen-oriented retailers trade weak with negative news out on Lululemon and Kohl's tipping sentiment in the sub-sector. Decliners: American Eagle Outfitters (AEO -2.9%), Abercrombie & Fitch (ANF -3.3%), Aeropostale (AEO -2.9%), Zumiez (ZUMZ -2.7%), The Bucke (BKE -2%), Urban Outfitters (URBN -2%). 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, March 11, 4:23 PM Urban Outfitters (URBN): Q4 EPS of $0.56 misses by $0.01. Revenue of $856.8M beats by $8.6M. Shares -2.7% AH. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 6, 1:43 PM A number of retailers are feeling the heat after American Eagles Outfitters reports a rough start to 2013. Though the retailer blamed weather for its downbeat outlook for the current quarter, retail analysts can't help but wonder if teenager clothing is falling on the wrong side of the discretionary vs. non-discretionary spending line. Decliners: ZUMZ -1.8%, ANF -1.0%, URBN -2.2%, ARO -2.4%, BKE -1.0%. 2 Comments [Consumer, On the Move]
