Analysis:

TheStreet Quant Ratings

rates Burlington Stores as a

sell

. Among the areas we feel are negative, one of the most important has been a generally disappointing historical performance in the stock itself.

Highlights from the ratings report include:

  • After a year of stock price fluctuations, the net result is that BURL's price has not changed very much. Although its weak earnings growth may have played a role in this flat result, don't lose sight of the fact that the performance of the overall market, as measured by the S&P 500 Index, was essentially similar. Looking ahead, we do not see anything in this company's numbers that would change the one-year trend. It was down over the last twelve months; and it could be down again in the next twelve. Naturally, a bull or bear market could sway the movement of this stock.
  • 39.57% is the gross profit margin for BURLINGTON STORES INC which we consider to be strong. It has increased from the same quarter the previous year. Regardless of the strong results of the gross profit margin, the net profit margin of 0.94% trails the industry average.
  • Net operating cash flow has significantly increased by 354.19% to $21.15 million when compared to the same quarter last year. In addition, BURLINGTON STORES INC has also vastly surpassed the industry average cash flow growth rate of 66.36%.
  • BURLINGTON STORES INC reported significant earnings per share improvement in the most recent quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. The company has demonstrated a pattern of positive earnings per share growth over the past year. We feel that this trend should continue. This trend suggests that the performance of the business is improving. During the past fiscal year, BURLINGTON STORES INC increased its bottom line by earning $0.85 versus $0.61 in the prior year. This year, the market expects an improvement in earnings ($2.32 versus $0.85).
  • The net income growth from the same quarter one year ago has significantly exceeded that of the S&P 500 and the Multiline Retail industry. The net income increased by 268.5% when compared to the same quarter one year prior, rising from -$6.47 million to $10.90 million.
