Headwinds.....

The biggest headwinds came from increased transportation costs and pricey fuel charges in the three months ending July 31. Inventory also grew during the quarter by more than $214 million, or 44.4 percent, year-over-year. By segment, retail inventory rose 42 percent, while wholesale inventory surged 64 percent, year-over-year. The company said it planned earlier receipts to “protect against the volatility of the supply chain,” which also drove up costs.

In addition, SG&A expense was up for the quarter by 7.2 percent, or $19.3 million, driven by increased store payroll costs. The company said the need for higher wages to retain workers, coupled with rising store traffic at some brands, caused payroll expenses to rise.

In the end, the company logged just $59.4 million in profits for the quarter, down from more than $127 million last year.

Moving Ahead.....

Richard A. Hayne, chief executive officer of Urban Outfitters Inc., said “If inflation and market volatility continue through the back half of the year, he expects the Urban brand to comp negatively for the year.”
