EARNINGS HIGHLIGHTS
Revenue was up about 18% when compared to the year-ago quarter for Ollie’s Bargain, reaching $324.85 million and topping the Wall Street consensus estimate of $319 million. The business also tallied up same-store sales that increased roughly 0.8% when compared to the year-ago quarter, ahead of the projected surge of 1.5% that analysts called for.
For its fiscal 2019, the brand now forecasts adjusted earnings in the range of $2.13 to $2.17 per share, which is in line with what analysts are calling for. Ollie’s Bargain sees its sales in the range of $1.44 billion to $1.453 billion, while same-store sales are slated to gain 1% to 2% year-over-year, both of which are also in line with Wall Street’s consensus guidance.
Turning to our outlook we are raising our full year guidance to reflect first quarter results. While we believe the first quarter was strong, we remain prudent in how we plan the business given that we operate in a deal driven environment and we are lapping a very strong year. As we said last quarter, our plans are in line with our long-term annual target to maintain unit growth and 1% to 2% comp store sales increase which drives adjusted net income growth of approximately 20%.
