Zumiez Inc.'s net sales for the month jumped 43.9% to $25.9 million from $18.0 million last year. The company's comparable store sales increased 12.1% for the four-week period on top of an 18.8% gain in the year-ago period.
Management attributed the growth to “new stores and comparable store sales gains, which were driven by an increase in average unit retail and in-store transactions.” As usual for the action sports retailer, men’s sales were pointed to as the primary comp driver, though all other departments “had positive comps.”
