American Apparel Q3 profit soars despite lower sales

Moves to streamline its inventories and switch towards higher-margin retail sales have helped lift T-shirt and casual clothing firm American Apparel Inc to an 82.6 per cent hike in third quarter profit.


The Los Angeles based firm, which makes and retails branded fashion basics, said its net income rose to 4.2 million dollars or 0.05 dollars per share, up from 2.3 million dollars a year ago.


Last year's figures were depressed by stock compensation payments, the company said.


"While we are pleased that we were able to deliver a profit in the third quarter in spite of the difficult environment, I believe the successes we had in terms of streamlining our inventories and significantly reducing our indebtedness will prove particularly valuable as we move forward," said chairman and CEO Dov Charney.


"While it is still very early, we are encouraged by some indications pointing to the beginning of momentum in our sales. "We believe that for the long term, our business remains on track as we continue to expand our brand's presence both in the US and internationally."
Looking ahead, American Apparel still expects its full-year sales to be in the range of 540 million dollars to 555 million dollars with a loss of one million dollars to a profit of four million dollars in the period.
