“Thursday's First Moves: AEO, M & COO Sell Off After Earnings”
$AEOBearish
AEO stock is weak due to declining core brand comps and margin compression outweighing positive Airy brand results and EPS beats.
I'm looking at the the price action down around 15% today for American Eagle. They reported earnings and sales as well as comp numbers. Uh you know, really mixed bag.
If you look at the topline sales, um, they came in slightly higher than estimates at 1.38 billion versus 1.37. So that was higher year-over-year by about 8%. EPS actually came in quite a bit higher on an adjusted basis at 79 cents versus the 21 cent estimate.
So that was higher by around 76% compared to last year at 45. Um, you look at the total comps, they were higher by 6%.
