$DBI out with a beat-and-raise, strong commentary: "Our second quarter results represent significant improvement in profitability year-over-year, highlighted by meaningful gross margin expansion as well as impressive sales growth in our Brand Portfolio segment," said Doug Howe, Chief Executive Officer. "We remain focused on generating long term value for our shareholders and are encouraged by the progress we are making against our strategic plan. These efforts have contributed to improved retail trends and a positive start to the third quarter, giving us confidence in raising our full year guidance." This is a stark contrast to rival $SHOE, which is puking on poor results and citing heavy promotional activity, and suppliers $NKE and $DECK which are testing 52-week lows.

$HTT: Unlocking the Cash Box A Chinese cash box trading at a fraction of book value and even net cash. The company has been monetising this discount by buying back huge amounts of stock. Founder and CEO owns 50% and may look at privatising the company as the free float shrinks. https://t.co/RYfc4oAF7h
