Van Sinderen wrote:

“TLYS reports 1Q results AMC 5/29. We anticipate overall 1Q performance that is roughly in- line. Although the quarter started slowly, it was up against the easiest compare of FY19 and we believe that it ended better than it started. Recall that traffic was down QTD as of mid- March amid the Easter shift and unusually cold weather, while the company expected flattish traffic by end of 1Q. Store comps were negative in all markets QTD in mid-March while E-comm was up 25%. In April, our checks suggest that traffic (and presumably comps) spiked around the Easter Holiday and easy compare to the same weeks LY . Regarding categories, we have not noticed any dominate trend in women’s to accelerate that category, which was positive 4Q (easy compare to negative for most of LY).”
