The discount department store chain said it was off to a slow start in the first quarter, and withdrew its full-year outlook as tariffs are expected to drag on earnings.
Macroeconomic uncertainty due to U.S. President Donald Trump’s tariff policy, along with still-high inflation, has forced many consumer-facing companies, particularly footwear, apparel and home goods, to trim or withdraw annual targets. Ross Stores said more than half the goods it sells are made in China, and it would consider raising some prices as inflationary pressures persist in the retail industry, executives said on the post-earnings call. Ross Stores expects second-quarter earnings to be in the range of $1.40 to $1.55 per share, which includes a cost impact of $0.11 to $0.16 per share from announced tariffs.
