The company incurred a quarterly loss of $0.38 per share that broadened from the prior-period loss of $0.03. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter was a loss of $0.37 per share. Further, due to uncertainty hovering around sales given the global economic unrest, the company rolled back its earnings guidance range of $1.25 to $1.35 per share for fiscal 2011. The company decided not to provide any guidelines unless it finds any near-term catalysts to drive sales.

		<description><![CDATA[Citi Trends Inc. (CTRN), a value-priced retailer of urban fashion apparel and accessories, has reported strong fiscal 2009 third quarter results with a net income of $0.6 million or 4 cents per share compared to a net loss of $0.7 million or 5 cents in the year-earlier quarter. The earnings were primarily driven by a 21.4% increase in total sales during the quarter to $127.4 million from $104.9 million in the year-ago quarter. Same-store sales also increased 6.3% year-over-year, benefiting from the back-to-school season and improved discretionary spending outlook of customers amid early signs of an economic recovery. The improvement in sales was also driven by prudent inventory management, merchandise selection in accordance with the sales trends, and solid execution at the store level. Year-to-date gross margin was up 40 ]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Citi Trends (CTRN) is exposed to continuing macroeconomic headwinds, which is adversely affecting its performance. The company recorded a 12.4% decline in same-store sales during fiscal 2009 second quarter, while its store expansion efforts dragged down operating results. Moreover, intense competition from other off-price retailers, mass merchants and smaller players is exerting immense pressure on the company s profitability. These factors severely undermine the company&#8217;s future growth prospects and sustainability. Our recommendation for the company is Underperform, as we anticipate it to perform well below the broader market. Zacks Investment Research View original at: Zacks.com News Feed]]></description>
