The apparel store posted earnings of $0.32 EPS on 29% revenues growth to $465.4 million, and First Call estimates were $0.29 and $463.5 million consensus. This was also record earnings for the quarter.
The company had already shown comparable sales cumulatively generating an 11% gain, and were broken down as 6% at Urban Outfitters, 18% at Anthropologie, and 19% at Free People.
