RE:RE:RE:RE:What recession?Why did Arizia jump from $25 to $34.88 when revenue is only up 4.6% and income dropped by 39%.
G&M January 11, 2024
Aritzia Inc.’s ATZ-T stock rose almost 21 per cent on Thursday as the market responded to the company’s latest earnings and several analysts upgraded their rating on the company.
Shares in the Vancouver-based retailer closed $5.55 higher at $32.01.
The spike came on the heels of Aritzia’s latest financial results, which showed the company’s net income dropped by 39 per cent to $43.1 million.
Net revenue for its third quarter reached $653.5 million, up from $624.6 million a year earlier.
The company says the quarter was impacted by higher markdowns it rolled out to optimize its inventory levels and pre-opening lease amortization costs it incurred for a number of new flagship boutiques.
