Oxford Industries stock tanks 9% after Tommy Bahama’s parent dials down outlook, citing ‘pressures’

Shares of Oxford Industries Inc. dropped more than 9% in the extended session Wednesday after the parent company of Tommy Bahama and Lilly Pulitzer reported better-than-expected quarterly earnings but lowered its guidance for the year, saying it was under “macroeconomic pressures.”

earned $58.6 million, or $3.64 a share, in the quarter, compared with $57.4 million, or $3.45 a share, in the year-ago quarter. Adjusted for one-time items, Oxford earned $3.78 a share.

Revenue rose to $420 million, compared with $353 million a year ago, the company said. Analysts polled by FactSet expected adjusted earnings of $3.74 a share on sales of $419 million.

“While the year started strong, as the quarter progressed, we did see macroeconomic pressures drive the consumer to become more cautious in her discretionary spending and a high level of promotional activity within the marketplace,” Chief Executive Tom Chubb said. “In light of these factors, we are moderating our growth forecast for the year.”
