J. Crew preps for down 2015

6/4/2015

New York – J. Crew Group is prepping for a down fiscal 2015 after a disappointing first quarter. Non-cash goodwill impairment charges and rising selling, general and administrative (SG&A) expenses helped significantly increase the retailer’s net loss to $462.4 million, compared to $30.1 million the first quarter of fiscal 2014.



Total revenues dropped 2% to $581.8 million from $591.97 million. Same-store sales fell 8%. J. Crew expects reductions in the profitability of its J. Crew reporting unit through the fiscal year, primarily driven by performance of women's apparel and accessories.
