5% Drop in Shares: American Eagle’s Alarming Sales Forecast for 2025

American Eagle’s shares fell about 5% in extended trading after the company warned of a slower start to 2025. The apparel retailer reported a net income of $104 million, or 54 cents per share, for the quarter ending February 1, up from $6.31 million, or 3 cents per share, the previous year. Despite this, sales dropped to $1.60 billion from $1.68 billion a year earlier. Comparable sales rose by 3%, surpassing the expected 2.1%. Aerie, the company’s intimates and activewear line, saw a 6% increase in comps, while the American Eagle banner’s comps grew by 1%. For the current quarter, the company anticipates a mid-single-digit decline in sales, contrary to analysts’ expectations of a 1.3% increase. For the full year, American Eagle expects sales to fall by a low single digit, compared to the anticipated 3% growth. These projections reflect a broader trend among retailers reporting weaker sales amid economic uncertainty.

Really don’t like posting the CSU model, but it’s risk for Saturday already being this high 4 days out is very worrisome. I’ve never seen that before. Regardless, Saturday will be a dangerous day & take it seriously.

Donald Trump needs to slow down with these tariffs! His trade war is tanking markets, risking jobs, and spiking inflation. DoorDash might dodge it, but American Eagle’s already crumbling. Cool the chaos before it’s too late!#TrumpTariffs #StockMarket
