Shawn Nelson, CEO of The LoveSac Company, said this about the earnings.
“Amid the global dislocation caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, Lovesac’s first quarter results affirm the resilience and compassion of our team, the benefit of our diversified channel mix, and the fundamental appeal of the Lovesac brand. These positive attributes contributed to the quarter’s strong results with nearly 33% total company sales growth, including a 255% increase in our e-commerce sales.”
The LoveSac Company doesn’t discuss guidance in the current earnings report. That makes sense with markets being unpredictable due to the novel coronavirus. Plenty of other companies are withholding their outlook at this time.
