 Chico's earnings drop to a penny in quarter Tuesday, 25 November 2008, 6:51 am

NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Chico's FAS Inc. said Tuesday that its third-quarter earnings were $2 million, or 1 cent a share, compared to $24 million, or 13 cents a share, in the same period a year ago. Sales fell by 5.2% to $394 million. Analysts polled by FactSet Research estimated, on average, a loss per share of 2 cents and sales of $393 million. Chief Executive Scott Edmonds said, "The lower level of sales and transactions necessitated a greater-than-planned level of markdowns and, therefore, a lower gross margin." Chico's plans capital expenditures of about $110 million in 2008 compared to $202 million last year. Chico's shares rose 10% Monday to $2.35.
