Brown Shoe Company Reports Third Quarter 2014 Results

Brown Shoe Company (NYSE: BWS) (brownshoe.com) today reported third quarter 2014 financial results, with net sales of $729.3 million up 3.8% versus third quarter 2013 net sales of $702.8 million. Third quarter 2014 net earnings of $33.1 million, or $0.75 per diluted share, were up 21.2% compared to net earnings of $27.3 million, or $0.63 per diluted share, in the third quarter of 2013. Gross margin for the third quarter of 2014 was 39.9% up 30 basis points compared to 39.6% in the prior year.

“Wholesale overachieved again, with sales up 18.2% in third quarter, and both Healthy Living and Contemporary Fashion contributed strong double-digit sales improvement. At Famous Footwear, our focus on big ideas for back-to-school continued to deliver. Same-store-sales were up 1.6%, for the 10 weeks that make up this key selling season,” said Diane Sullivan, CEO, president and chairman of Brown Shoe Company. “Although our biggest quarter of the year is past, with nine strong months behind us -- and an easier comp ahead of us for the fourth quarter -- we expect to deliver a strong 2014.”

For the back-to-school selling season, weeks 24 through 33, same-store-sales were up 1.6%.
