For the quarter that ended Aug. 3, net income rose 3 percent to $19.6 million, or 10 cents per share. Revenue fell 2 percent to $727.3 million. A key revenue figure that tracks sales in established stores dropped 7 percent
Pittsburgh-based American Eagle Outfitters Inc. is the latest retailer to post disappointing results. Chains including Wal-Mart, Kohl's, Macy's and Saks have cut their outlook for the year, raising worries about consumer spending.
