Urban Outfitters Impresses in 4Q

(URBN) -
Morningstar
Urban Outfitters
URBN
posted impressive fourth quarter results, affirming our view that this retailer's ability to offer unique merchandise in a distinct store environment is resonating with consumers. While sales were in line with our projections, the fourth quarter operating margin of 20.2% exceeded our expectations, as higher initial merchandise margins and fewer markdowns helped drive a 771 basis point improvement in the gross margin to 41.7%. We plan to increase our fair value estimate modestly as we assume higher top line growth driven by an increase in new store openings and mid to high single digit comparables coupled with more optimistic operating margin assumptions.
