Monthly Same-Store Sales Summary – April 2012

Kohl’s reported a decrease of 1.9% in net sales and a 3.5% decline in same-store sales for April, compared to a 10.2% gain in the same period last year. For the combined March-April period, net sales increased 2.3% to $3.069 billion and same-store sales rose 0.6% compared to flat comps in the prior year. For the fiscal first quarter, net sales increased 1.9% to $4.243 billion and comparable sales rose 0.2% on top of a 1.3% gain in the prior-year period. Kevin Mansell, Kohl’s chairman, president and chief executive officer, commented, “As expected, warm March weather and an early Easter, contributed to a decline in April’s sales. Home, Accessories and Men’s all reported positive comparable store sales. From a regional perspective, the Midwest, Northeast, South Central and West outperformed the Mid-Atlantic and Southeast regions.” The company remains comfortable with its first quarter earnings guidance of $0.60 cents per diluted share.
