Third Quarter of Fiscal 2025 Compared to Third Quarter of Fiscal 2024
| ● | Net sales increased 12.9% to $2.9 billion compared to $2.5 billion, primarily due to increased comparable sales, the acquisition of Space NK, and net new store contribution. |
| ● | Comparable sales (sales for stores open at least 14 months and e-commerce sales) increased 6.3% compared to 0.6%, driven by a 3.8% increase in average ticket and a 2.4% increase in transactions. |
| ● | Gross profit increased 14.9% to $1.2 billion compared to $1.0 billion. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 40.4% compared to 39.7%, primarily due to lower |
| inventory shrink and higher merchandise margin, partially offset by unfavorable channel mix. |
| ● | Selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses increased 23.3% to $840.9 million compared to $682.3 million. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 29.4% compared to 27.0%, primarily due to higher incentive compensation, store payroll and benefits, store expenses, and amortization of cloud-based software investments. |
| ● | Operating income was $309.4 million, or 10.8% of net sales, compared to $318.5 million, or 12.6% of net sales. |
| ● | The effective tax rate was 24.1% compared to 24.4%. |

| ● | Gross profit increased 10.1% to $3.4 billion compared to $3.1 billion. As a percentage of net sales, gross profit increased to 39.6% compared to 39.1%, primarily due to lower inventory shrink and higher merchandise margin, partially offset by deleverage of other revenue. |
| ● | SG&A expenses increased 15.1% to $2.3 billion compared to $2.0 billion. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses increased to 27.0% compared to 25.5%, primarily due to deleverage of store payroll and benefits, higher incentive compensation, and higher store expenses. |
| ● | Operating income was $1.1 billion, or 12.4% of net sales, compared to $1.0 billion, or 13.4% of net sales. |
| ● | The effective tax rate was 24.4% compared to 23.9%. |
| ● | Net income was $796.8 million compared to $807.8 million. |
| ● | Diluted earnings per share increased 4.3% to $17.65, compared to $16.93 which included a $0.10 benefit due to income tax accounting for stock-based compensation. |

Merchandise inventories, net at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2025 increased 16.0% to $2.7 billion compared to $2.4 billion at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2024.

Short-term debt at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2025 was $551.7 million compared to $199.7 million at the end of the third quarter of fiscal 2024, as the Company drew on its revolving credit facility to support working capital needs and ongoing capital allocation priorities, including share repurchases and capital expenditures.
