諾德斯特龍二季度淨銷售額下降53%
Nordstrom’s Net Sales Fall 53% In 2Q
據外媒報道,美國百貨連鎖企業諾德斯特龍日前表示,第二季度淨銷售額下降53%,原因是其門店在疫情期間被暫時關閉,銷售受到沖擊,其在線業務也因周年促銷時機變化而受到影響。
Nordstrom said recently its net sales fell 53% during the second quarter, as its stores took a hit from being temporarily closed during the coronavirus pandemic, and its online business suffered due to a shift in timing of its annual Anniversary Sale.
在截至8月1日的財季,公司淨虧損達2.55億美元,合每股虧損1.62美元,上年同期淨利1.41億美元,合每股盈餘0.90美元。
For the period ended Aug. 1, Nordstrom swung to a loss of $255 million, or $1.62 per share, from net income of $141 million, or 90 cents a share, a year ago.
包括信用卡銷售在內的營收從上年同期的38.7億美元降至18.6億美元,低於分析師預估的23.8億美元。
Revenue, which includes sales from credit cards, fell to $1.86 billion from $3.87 billion a year ago, short of the $2.38 billion that analysts estimated.
網上銷售額下降5%,很大程度上是因為這家百貨公司將通常在7月份舉行的周年慶促銷活動推遲到了第三季度。
Online sales fell 5%, due in large part to the department store chain moving its popular Anniversary Sale that is typically held in July into the third quarter.
該公司稱,如果排除這一影響,當季數字產品銷量增長約20%。
Excluding this impact, the company said digital sales were up roughly 20% during the period.
