Wall Street said it predicted the shoe stores chain to bring in adjusted earnings of 6 cents per share, according to data compiled by FactSet.

For its fiscal 2019 the business said it sees its earnings in the range of $2.60 to $2.70 per share, in line with the $2.66 per share that analysts predict. Sales are slated to come in at around $1.04 billion–the same amount Wall Street guides for.
