bebe stores, inc. Announces Fiscal Second Quarter 2009 Sales

bebe stores, inc. (Nasdaq:BEBE) today reported retail sales of $176.3 million for the fiscal quarter ended January 3, 2009, a decrease of 12.7% compared to sales of $201.9 million for the fiscal quarter ended January 5, 2008. Same store sales for the fiscal quarter ended January 3, 2009 decreased 20.1% compared to a decrease of 7.9% in the prior year.

Retail sales for the year-to-date period ended January 3, 2009 were $333.6 million compared to $360.4 million for the year-to-date period ended January 5, 2008 a decrease of 7.4%. Same store sales for the year-to-date period ending January 3, 2009 decreased 16.0% compared to a decrease of 8.5% for the year-to-date period ending January 5, 2008.

As of January 3, 2009, average finished goods inventory per square foot was approximately 19.2% lower as compared to the prior year.

Comparable store sales for the quarter were consistent with October results; however both November and December were more promotional than our incoming expectations in response to a deceleration in mall traffic resulting from a deterioration of the larger macro economic environment. Therefore, we currently anticipate fiscal second quarter earnings per share to be in the range of $0.05 to $0.09 based on 90 million diluted weighted average shares outstanding versus prior guidance of $0.12 to $0.16 earnings per share.
