Specialty retailer for women’s apparels and accessories, Ann Inc. (NYSE: ANN) said on Friday that fiscal second quarter profit rose 16%, aided by higher sales at its Loft and Ann Taylor stores. However, the retailer, just like its peers, slashed the full-year outlook. For the latest period, the adjusted earnings stood at 76 cents a share, comfortably beating analysts’ estimate for 65 cents a share. Revenue rose 7% to $638.2 million but missed Street’s forecast of $639.7 million. For the full-fiscal year, the Company anticipates revenue of $2.52 billion down from earlier projection for $2.54 billion.
