A Look at Signet’s Q3 2019 Performance

Signet Jewelers’ (SIG) reported net sales of $1.19 billion came in ahead of analysts’ estimate of $1.16 billion and increased 3.0% on a YoY (year-over-year) basis. Signet’s net sales benefited from improved comps (1.6%) driven by clearance sales. Its double-digit e-commerce sales growth rate led by its James Allen acquisition further supported its net sales. However, store closures, unfavorable currency rates, and a shift in the timing of its promotions remained a drag.
