Bob Fisch, rue21's President and CEO, stated: "We continued to
achieve consistent net income growth in the second quarter driven
by our balanced product assortments, flexible real estate and sales
growth strategies. We are on track to open 120 stores this year in
new markets across the United States, and the stores we have opened
in 2012 are achieving record performance in sales and profits. In
addition to the strong results generated by the new stores, we
expect the strategic initiatives put in place by our merchandising,
planning, allocation and operations teams to generate solid
comparable store sales in the back half of 2012. We have confidence
in our ability to continue delivering profitable growth for the
remainder of the year."
Stock Repurchase Program:
During the second quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company
repurchased 496,000 shares for $12.9 million. The stock repurchase
program had no impact on diluted earnings per share in the second
quarter. At the end of the second quarter, $37.1 million of the $50
million stock repurchase program authorized in May 2012 remained
available for future share repurchases. Under the 2012 stock
repurchase program, the Company may repurchase shares in the open
market at current market prices at the time of purchase or in
privately negotiated transactions. The timing and actual number of
shares repurchased under the program will depend on a variety of
factors including price, corporate and regulatory requirements, and
other market and business conditions. The Company may suspend or
discontinue the program at any time, and may thereafter reinstitute
purchases, all without prior announcement.
Outlook:
For fiscal 2012, the Company is raising its prior guidance based
on second quarter results and expects diluted earnings per share to
be in the range of $1.80 to $1.85 versus its previous guidance of
$1.76 to $1.81, and as compared to $1.55 in fiscal 2011. This
incorporates 25.0 million average diluted shares expected for
fiscal 2012 as compared to 25.1 million average diluted shares in
fiscal 2011. For the third quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company
currently expects low single digit comparable store sales. Diluted
earnings per share for the third quarter are expected to be in the
range of $0.38 to $0.40.
