What were the key financial metrics (revenue, EPS, same‑store sales) for Q2 2025 and how do they compare to expectations?
Answer
The press release you quoted only announces the date and time of Ross Stores Inc.’s (NASDAQ: ROST) second‑quarter 2025 earnings release and conference call. It does not contain the actual financial results—such as revenue, earnings per share (EPS), or same‑store sales (also called comparable store sales)—for Q2 2025, nor does it provide any commentary on how those results compare to analysts’ expectations.
What this means for your question
| Requested metric | Information in the announcement |
|---|---|
| Revenue (Q2 2025) | Not disclosed; will be released on August 21 2025. |
| EPS (Q2 2025) | Not disclosed; will be released on August 21 2025. |
| Same‑store (comparable) sales (Q2 2025) | Not disclosed; will be released on August 21 2025. |
| Comparison to expectations | No guidance or expectation data is provided in the announcement. |
Where to obtain the data
- Live webcast: Tune in to the real‑time audio webcast at 4:15 p.m. ET on August 21 2025 by visiting the Investors section of Ross Stores’ website (www.rossstores.com).
- Press release & earnings release: After the call, Ross Stores will post a detailed earnings release (including the financial tables) on the same Investor Relations page.
- SEC filings: The company’s Form 10‑Q for the quarter will be filed with the SEC and will contain the complete set of financial statements and a discussion of results versus prior expectations.
- Third‑party financial portals: Once the results are public, services such as Bloomberg, Reuters, Yahoo! Finance, and FactSet will publish the key metrics and often include analyst consensus estimates for comparison.
What you can do next
- Set a reminder for the August 21 2025 webcast or check the Investor Relations page later that day for the posted earnings release.
- Monitor analyst coverage (e.g., brokerage research reports) for consensus EPS and revenue expectations; these are typically compiled by financial data providers and will be useful for a “vs. expectations” comparison once the results are out.
- After the release, you can compare the reported figures to the consensus estimates (e.g., from FactSet’s “Earnings Estimate” or Bloomberg’s “Consensus EPS”) to assess whether Ross Stores beat, met, or missed expectations.
Bottom line
Based solely on the information you provided, the specific Q2 2025 financial metrics and any comparison to market expectations are not yet available. You’ll need to wait for the earnings release on Thursday, August 21 2025 (or the subsequent SEC filing) to obtain the actual numbers and evaluate how they stack up against analysts’ forecasts.
