Comparable store sales for the four-week period ended 28 February 1998 increased 3.5%. “February comparable store results were positively impacted by Sunglass Hut“s international stores and continued strong Watch Station performance. North America Sunglass Hut results, although positive, were negatively impacted by performance on the West coast due to unusual weather patterns in that region,” said John X.
