- Aerie achieved all-time high third quarter revenue with comps up 5%, following 12% reported comp growth last year
- American Eagle comps increased 3%, following 2% reported comp growth last year
- Operating Income was $106 million. Adjusted Operating Income of $124 million reflected an Adjusted Operating Margin of 9.6%

December 4, 2024
PITTSBURGH -- (BUSINESS WIRE) – American Eagle Outfitters, Inc. (NYSE: AEO) today announced financial results for the third quarter fiscal 2024 ended November 2, 2024.
“Building on our positive performance in the first half of the year, third quarter results provide another proof point of the effectiveness of our Powering Profitable Growth Plan. Led by a strong back-to-school season, we achieved comparable sales growth across brands and channels, and delivered adjusted operating income at the high end of our guidance range,” commented Jay Schottenstein, AEO’s Executive Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive Officer.
“We have entered the holiday season well positioned, with our leading brands offering high-quality merchandise, great gifts and an outstanding shopping experience across channels. Key selling periods have seen a positive customer response, yet we remain cognizant of potential choppiness during non-peak periods. The teams are focused on delivering the quarter and with our strong year-to-date performance, we remain confident in achieving our long-term strategic objectives,” he concluded.
Third Quarter 2024 Results:
Third quarter 2024 results are presented for the 13 weeks ended November 2, 2024 compared to the 13 weeks ended October 28, 2023. Comparable sales metrics are
presented for the 13 weeks ended November 2, 2024 compared to the 13 weeks ended November 4, 2023.
Total comparable sales increased 3%, following 5% reported comp growth last year.
Total net revenue of $1.3 billion declined 1%. This included approximately $45 million of adverse impact from the retail calendar shift.
Aerie comparable sales increased 5% on a 12% increase last year. American Eagle comparable sales grew 3% following 2% growth last year.
Gross profit of $527 million decreased 3%. Gross margin of 40.9% compared to 41.8% last year, reflecting increased markdowns and expense deleverage related to the retail calendar shift.
Selling, general and administrative expense of $351 million decreased 3% and leveraged 50 basis points. The improvement was due to lower compensation, including incentive costs, as well as lower professional fees and services and maintenance costs, partially offset by higher advertising.
Operating income was $106 million, reflecting an operating margin of 8.2%. This included an approximately $20 million adverse impact from the retail calendar shift. Adjusted operating income of $124 million excluded $18 million of impairment and restructuring costs. The adjusted operating margin of 9.6% was flat to last year.
Diluted earnings per share was $0.41. Adjusted diluted earnings per share was $0.48. Average diluted shares outstanding were 196 million.
Inventory
Total ending inventory increased 5% to $804 million. Inventory is healthy and well positioned for the holiday season.
Shareholder Returns
In the third quarter, the company returned approximately $24 million in cash to shareholders through the quarterly cash dividend of $0.125 per share bringing year-to-date cash dividends to $73 million.
Additionally, during the first half of the year, the company repurchased 6 million shares for $131 million. The company continues to have 24 million shares remaining for repurchase under the current authorization.
Capital Expenditures
Capital expenditures totaled $61 million in the third quarter and $158 million year-to-date. For fiscal 2024, management expects capital expenditures in the range of $225 to $245 million.
Restructuring and Impairment Charges
In the third quarter, the company recorded an $18 million impairment and restructuring charge, of which $6 million was non-cash. As part of its ongoing profit improvement initiatives, the company took additional actions to streamline its corporate cost structure. The company also changed its Hong Kong retail operation from company-owned to a licensed model.
Outlook
Fourth quarter comparable sales are expected to be up approximately 1%, with total revenue down 4% including a roughly $85 million impact from the combination of the retail calendar shift and one less selling week, as previously discussed. Operating income is expected to be in the range of $125 to $130 million. This incorporates currency pressure from the recent strengthening in the U.S. dollar, in addition to a $20 million drag from the retail calendar shift. SG&A is expected to leverage reflecting the company’s continued focus on driving efficiencies across key focus areas.
For the year, this implies comparable sales growth of approximately 3%, with total revenue up 1%, including the impact of one less selling week. Adjusted operating income is expected to be in the range of $428 to $433 million compared to adjusted operating income of $375 million in 2023, representing growth in the mid-teens.

Non-GAAP Measures
This press release includes operating income and net income and net income per diluted share presented on an adjusted or non-GAAP basis, which are non-GAAP financial measures. These financial measures are not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by GAAP and are not necessarily comparable to similar measures presented by other companies. Non-GAAP information is provided as a supplement to, not as a substitute for, or as superior to, measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with GAAP. We believe that this non-GAAP information is useful as an additional means for investors to evaluate our operating performance when reviewed in conjunction with our GAAP Consolidated Financial Statements and provides a higher degree of transparency. These amounts are not determined in accordance with GAAP and, therefore, should not be used exclusively in evaluating our business and operations. The tables included in this release reconcile the GAAP financial measures to the non-GAAP financial measures discussed above for the 13 weeks and 39 weeks ended November 2, 2024, Fiscal 2024 and Fiscal 2023.
SAFE HARBOR STATEMENT UNDER THE PRIVATE SECURITIES LITIGATION REFORM ACT OF 1995
This release and related statements by management contain forward-looking statements (as such term is defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995), which represent management’s expectations or beliefs concerning future events, including, without limitation, fourth fiscal quarter and annual fiscal 2024 results. Words such as “outlook,” "estimate," "project," "plan," "believe," "expect," "anticipate," "intend," “may,” “potential,” and similar expressions may identify forward-looking statements, although not all forward-looking statements contain these identifying words. All forward-looking statements made by the company are inherently uncertain because they are based on assumptions and expectations concerning future events and are subject to change based on many important factors, some of which may be beyond the company’s control. Except as may be required by applicable law, we undertake no obligation to publicly update or revise any forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise and even if experience or future changes make it clear that any projected results expressed or implied therein will not be realized. The following factors, in addition to the risks disclosed in Item 1A., Risk Factors, of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended February 3, 2024 and in any other filings that we may make with the Securities and Exchange Commission, in some cases have affected, and in the future could affect, the company's financial performance and could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied in any of the forward-looking statements included in this release or otherwise made by management: the risk that the company’s operating, financial and capital plans may not be achieved; our inability to anticipate customer demand and changing fashion trends and to manage our inventory commensurately;
seasonality of our business; our inability to achieve planned store financial performance; our inability to react to raw material cost, labor and energy cost increases; our inability to gain market share in the face of declining shopping center traffic; our inability to respond to changes in e-commerce and leverage omni-channel demands; our inability to expand internationally; difficulty with our international merchandise sourcing strategies; challenges with information technology systems, including safeguarding against security breaches; and global economic, public health, social, political and financial conditions, and the resulting impact on consumer confidence and consumer spending, as well as other changes in consumer discretionary spending habits, which could have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and liquidity.
The use of the “company,” “AEO,” “we,” "us," and “our” in this release refers to American Eagle Outfitters, Inc.
