FL was basiscally in line, but the guidance of "a double digit percentage profit increase for fiscal 2013" is better than the analyst consensus of +9%. There was a lot of pessimism going into this report, especially considering the disasters in mall-based teen retailers (ANF, AEO, ARO). If we weren't long this in CG/B and a short-term trade at Marketfy, I would be looking to get in quickly. If I hear anything on the call that tempers my enthusiasm, I will post here (9am EST)
