<p>Top-line revenue expanded 7.2% to $4.98 billion, narrowly exceeding the Street’s projection of $4.96 billion.</p>
<p>Comparable store sales posted a 3.5% year-over-year gain, fueled by a 4.5% increase in average transaction value. Customer traffic declined 1%, though the elevated spending per visit successfully counterbalanced this softness.</p>
<p>CEO Mike Creedon characterized the performance as evidence of “continued progress across the business” and highlighted merchandise assortment enhancements, expense discipline, and store-level improvements as primary catalysts.</p>
