Despite a weak third quarter, fourth-quarter projections are bullish.
With a focus on fashion, Burlington Stores, Inc. merchandises branded apparel products in the United States. They offer items such as babies, homes, accessories, footwear, toys, and beauty products along with ready-to-wear apparel for women, men, and children. As of the end of the second quarter of Fiscal 2022, the Company operated 877 locations, mostly under the brand Burlington Stores, in 46 states and Puerto Rico. Investors are pleased by fourth-quarter projections that suggest a minor improvement in the performance of the off-price retailer despite a dismal third-quarter earnings announcement from the company. Many retail stocks are rising, which may indicate that investors believe the industry is oversold.
“While we acknowledge that there are risks and uncertainties, we think the outlook for 2023 is very positive. We anticipate that the economic and competitive environment could set up very well for off-price. We also recognize that we will be lapping our own execution mistakes and under-performance from 2022. Based on these factors we believe that we can start to drive significant sales, margin, and earnings recovery next year.”
The market applauded BURL's successful inventory and cost management strategies in the fourth quarter, which are demonstrated by this earnings projection. Looking ahead to the fourth quarter, adjusted profits per share improved from $2.45 to $2.75, exceeding the $2.53 reported in the prior year.
