What is happening?
On April 14, 2021, AEO revealed that its first-quarter revenue is on target to reach $1 billion, representing a mid-teens boost over pre-COVID 2019 first-quarter registered revenue. Demand has increased across the American Eagle and Aerie labels, resulting in higher full-priced sales, lower discounts, and higher margins. Management estimates operating income of about $120 million for the year, relative to $48 million in operating income and $49 million in adjusted operating income in the first quarter of 2019.
AEO’s development goals, which are based on the value creation strategy “Real Power. Real Growth,” are having a significant effect, fueling our products, platforms, and gaining new consumers. External influences including economic stimulus, renewed consumer sentiment, and pent-up demand are also helping businesses perform well.
