Burlington Stores Inc's stock fell by 3.00%, hitting a 20-day low as investors reacted to mixed earnings results.
The company reported a 23% increase in net income for Q3, but sales growth of 7% fell short of expectations. Analysts noted a decline in store traffic due to warm weather, impacting sales performance.
Despite raising its fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS guidance, the stock's decline reflects investor caution amid broader market trends.
