Sales for the three-month period ended July 31 also came in higher than analysts were expecting, thanks to outsized growth in its women’s and kids’ categories.
Here’s how Stitch Fix did compared with what Wall Street was expecting, based on a survey of analysts by Refinitiv:
- Earnings per share: 19 cents vs. a loss of 13 cents expected
- Revenue: $571.2 million vs. $548 million expected
Net income attributable to shareholders was $28 million, or 19 cents per share, in the latest period. A year ago, it posted a net loss of $44.5 million, or 44 cents a share. Analysts had been looking for the company to book a loss of 13 cents per share.
Revenue grew to $571.2 million from $443.4 million a year earlier. That was better than analysts’ expectations for $548 million.
Stitch Fix reported nearly 4.2 million active clients, up 18% from a year earlier.
