The company's outlook for H2 2024, with expected flat to low-single-digit comparable store sales growth and positive EBITDA, suggests a potential turnaround. However, investors should closely monitor the effectiveness of these strategic actions in driving profitable growth.
Citi Trends' strategic shift towards a refined merchandise strategy is a important move in the competitive retail landscape. The focus on offering a balanced assortment of good, better and best products, with an emphasis on opening price point items and branded 'treasure hunt' goods, aligns with current consumer trends seeking value and unique finds.
The positive traffic growth in Q2 and the strong performance in home and impulse categories (double-digit comps) indicate that the core consumer remains engaged with the brand. The early success of back-to-school children's categories is also promising.
However, the company's plan to close 10 to 15 underperforming stores this year signals ongoing challenges in certain locations. The reduced capital expenditure outlook (
Citi Trends' inventory management and supply chain strategies are undergoing significant changes. The strategic inventory reset, while costly in the short term, is a necessary step to align inventory with current market demands. Exiting Q2 2024 with total inventory flat compared to Q2 2023 is a positive sign, indicating better inventory control.
The company's focus on improving product allocation processes and preseason assortment planning is important for operational efficiency. These initiatives, combined with the inventory reset, should lead to fresher, more relevant product offerings and potentially higher full-price sell-through rates.
The engagement of a consulting firm to address shrink issues is a proactive step. The implementation of upgraded store talent, updated theft prevention equipment and a third-party restitution program demonstrates a comprehensive approach to tackling this industry-wide challenge. If successful, these measures could significantly improve gross margins in future quarters.

Second Quarter Actions
During the second quarter, the Company took strategic and definitive action to reset its inventory composition, marking down slow-selling and aged inventory. This inventory reset sets the stage for the Company’s refined merchandise strategy to consistently offer fresher, more balanced assortments of good, better, and best products with a higher penetration of opening price point products and branded ‘treasure hunt’ goods at incredible value for our customers.
Throughout the quarter, the Company continued taking action to control and mitigate shrink, including upgrading store talent, updating in-store theft prevention equipment as well as leveraging exception reporting to identify problem areas early and establishing a third-party restitution program. Important policies, such as the return policy and the associate discount policy, have been updated to tighten controls as well. Additionally, a well-regarded consulting firm was engaged to help identify and fix other root causes of shrink.
The Company believes the

Interim Chief Executive Officer Comments
Ken Seipel, Interim Chief Executive Officer, commented, “Following an evaluation of several key areas of our business including an extensive review of our product assortment, we made the strategic decision to execute an inventory reset to quickly clear through slow-selling and aged inventory. This action enables us to consistently offer fresher, more balanced assortments of good, better, and best products. We are also swiftly capitalizing on two distinct opportunities: enhancing the ‘treasure hunt’ experience by securing branded goods at incredible values, while also increasing the penetration of opening price point goods. Additionally, we have identified specific opportunities to improve our product allocation process, shrinkage controls and preseason assortment planning process, all of which will improve our operational efficiency and execution. These are the first of several foundational improvements we are pursuing to position Citi Trends for profitable growth.
“Significantly, we achieved traffic growth in the quarter, a clear indication our core consumer remains highly engaged with the Citi Trends brand and our unique store experience. In Q2, our home and impulse categories delivered double digit comps and our back-to-school Children’s categories got off to a strong start. I am pleased to report that Q3 is off to a solid start with positive low-single-digit comparable store sales growth through the first three weeks of the quarter. We remain in a healthy financial position with strong liquidity and no debt, allowing us to execute the foundational work necessary for future profit acceleration. While there is still much work ahead, I am energized and optimistic about our company’s future. I would like to thank our entire Citi Trends team for their high level of engagement as we chart a new path to execute a winning strategy for all of our stakeholders,” Seipel concluded.
