Did the management address any potential risks or headwinds, such as supply chain disruptions or labor cost pressures, that could impact future performance?

The brief release about Ollie’s Bargain Outlet (NASDAQ: OLLI) only confirms the date of the Q2 FY 2025 earnings announcement and the participants on the conference call. It does not contain any language indicating that management has identified or discussed specific forward‑looking risks such as supply‑chain disruptions, labor‑cost inflation, freight‑price volatility, or other headwinds that could affect the business.

Because the press‑release is purely logistical, investors will have to wait for the actual earnings call or the accompanying earnings release to see whether CEO Eric van der Valk or CFO Robert Helm flag any material risk factors. In the meantime, the stock’s technical picture remains the primary driver: OLLI has been trading in a tight range near its 50‑day moving average with modest upside momentum and limited volume. If the upcoming earnings beat expectations and management provides a reassuring outlook, a breakout above the recent high (~$31) could trigger short‑term buying. Conversely, if the call reveals supply‑chain constraints or rising labor costs that could squeeze margins, the stock may retest its 50‑day MA and invite short‑covering rallies. Traders should plan to position around the earnings event, using a modest long bias only after confirming positive guidance and risk‑management commentary, and consider protective stops near the recent low (~$28) to hedge against any adverse risk disclosures.
