Stitch Fix, Inc. shares were sinking in after-hours trading on Monday after the subscription clothing company reported fiscal first quarter earnings. For the quarter, the company reported net income of $10.7 million, or 10 cents a share. This was compared to the $1.3 million, or 4 cents a share, that the company reported in the year ago quarter. Revenue of $366.2 million was ahead of the $295.6 million from the year ago period. Analysts had been waiting for earnings of 3 cents a share with revenue of $358 million. So why did shares plummet? Initially they were on the rise until traders became concerned about the company saying it did not expect to increase the number of its active subscribers in the holiday quarter. Stitch Fix said it does not expect to benefit from the holiday quarter as it sees more shoppers focusing on buying gifts for others than themselves. "We are just less active in marketing," compared with other retailers during the holiday season, President and Chief Operating Officer Mike Smith, told Reuters.
