    المصدر: Nasdaq GlobeNewswire / 01 يونيو 2023 16:05:01   America/New_York

    LYNNWOOD, Wash., June 01, 2023 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Zumiez Inc. (NASDAQ: ZUMZ) a leading specialty retailer of apparel, footwear, equipment and accessories for young men and women, today reported results for the first quarter ended April 29, 2023.

    Net sales for the first quarter ended April 29, 2023 (13 weeks) decreased 17.1% to $182.9 million from $220.7 million in the first quarter ended April 30, 2022 (13 weeks).   Net loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2023 was $18.4 million, or $0.96 loss per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $0.4 million, or $0.02 loss per diluted share, in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.

    At April 29, 2023, the Company had cash and current marketable securities of $155.3 million compared to cash and current marketable securities of $173.0 million at April 30, 2022. The decrease was driven by capital expenditures of $27.5 million over this time period, offset by $11.2 million provided by operating activities.

    Rick Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of Zumiez Inc., stated, “Our first quarter operating results were in-line with our outlook and reflect the significant change in consumer purchasing behavior that has occurred in the U.S. over the past year. While the domestic demand environment and heightened promotional activity has put pressure on our full-price selling model, we remain confident that the strong connections we’ve forged with our customers through Zumiez’s distinct brand culture, diverse and differentiated merchandise offering, and world class service have us well positioned for accelerated market share gains when we emerge from the current economic cycle. At the same time, we continue to expand our presence and evolve our capabilities in Europe and Australia and are encouraged by our momentum in these regions and the global foundation we are building for long-term, profitable growth.”

    May 2023 Sales
    Net sales for the four-week period ended May 27, 2023 decreased 12.8% compared to the four-week period ended May 28, 2022. Comparable sales for the four-week period ending May 27, 2023 decreased 14.3% from the comparable period in the prior year.

    Fiscal 2023 Second Quarter Outlook
    The Company is introducing guidance for the three months ending July 29, 2023. Net sales are projected to be in the range of $187 to $192 million. Loss per share is expected to be between $(0.63) to $(0.73).  

    The Company currently intends to open approximately 23 new stores in fiscal 2023, including up to 8 stores in North America, 10 stores in Europe and 5 stores in Australia.
