Reports Q4 revenue $291.31M, consensus $289.13M. Reports Q4 comparable sales up 2.2%. Rick Brooks, Chief Executive Officer of Zumiez Inc., stated, "Our fourth quarter performance was highlighted by strong full price selling in North America which fueled mid-single digit comparable sales growth in the region and meaningful gross margin expansion. In addition to these results, our focus on assortment and full price selling in the European business drove 250 basis points of improvement in product margin year over year. Fiscal 2025 represented an important step towards returning to historical levels of sales and earnings, and while we still have work to do, our results underscore the success of our recent merchandise assortments, customer experience and expense management. We started the new year with good momentum and believe we have the right plans in place to build on our recent progress including generating increased cash which we'll deploy to drive growth and enhanced shareholder value."
