Earnings and Revenue
Sell-side analysts are expecting Ross Stores's loss per share to be near $0.3 on sales of $2.41 billion. Ross Stores EPS in the same period a year ago totaled $1.14. Sales were $3.98 billion. If the company were to report earnings in line when it publishes results Thursday, earnings would be down 126.32%. Sales would be down 39.45% from the year-ago period.

Stock Performance
Over the last 52-week period, shares are down 16.71%. Given that these returns are generally negative, long-term shareholders are probably unhappy going into this earnings release.
