EXHIBIT 99.1
Zumiez Inc. Announces Fiscal 2024 First Quarter Results
Board Approves New Stock Repurchase Authorization
LYNNWOOD, Wash., June 06, 2024 (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 May 4, 2024.
Net sales for the first quarter ended May 4, 2024 (13 weeks) decreased 3.0% to $177.4 million from $182.9 million in the first quarter ended April 29, 2023 (13 weeks). Net loss in the first quarter of fiscal 2024 was $16.8 million, or $0.86 loss per diluted share, compared to a net loss of $18.4 million, or $0.96 loss per diluted share, in the first quarter of the prior fiscal year.
At May 4, 2024, the Company had cash and current marketable securities of $146.6 million compared to cash and current marketable securities of $155.3 million at April 29, 2023. The decrease was driven by capital expenditures of $17.5 million over this time period, offset by $9.1 million provided by operating activities.
Rick Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of Zumiez Inc., stated, “Fiscal 2024 is off to an encouraging start as we once again achieved sequential improvement in our year-over-year quarterly sales trends and both top and bottom line results exceeded our initial outlook for the quarter. The results were driven by our North American region which inflected positive in the first quarter. At the same time, our focus on improving full priced selling in Europe helped expand merchandise margins, which more than offset expense deleverage and fueled enhanced operating performance versus a year ago, even as overall sales remained under pressure. We still have much work to do to return to historic levels of both sales and profitability, but I am confident that our strategies to reinvigorate growth and reduce our cost base have us on the path to deliver further progress over the remainder of this year and beyond.”
May 2024 Sales
Net sales for the four-week period ended June 1, 2024 increased 1.8% compared to the four-week period ended May 27, 2023. Comparable sales for the four-week period ending June 1, 2024 decreased 0.2% from the comparable period in the prior year.
Fiscal 2024 Second Quarter Outlook
The Company is introducing guidance for the three months ending August 3, 2024. Net sales are projected to be in the range of $199 to $204 million. Loss per share is expected to be between $0.30 to $0.40.
The Company currently intends to open approximately 10 new stores in fiscal 2024, including up to 3 stores in North America, 3 stores in Europe and 4 stores in Australia.
Stock Repurchase Authorization
On June 5, 2024, Zumiez Inc. approved the repurchase of up to an aggregate of $25 million of common stock. The repurchase program is expected to continue through June 30, 2025 unless the time period is extended or shortened by the Board of Directors.
