<p>For the quarter ending February 3, 2024, The Buckle Inc. reported a net income of $79.6 million, translating to earnings of $1.60 per share (or $1.59 on a diluted basis). Despite the observed downturn in the retail sector, the company navigated fiscal challenges and ended the year with a significant profit. <br><br>This performance, however, reflects a decrease from the prior year’s fourth quarter, where net income stood at $87.8 million or $1.78 per share. This quarter’s net sales slightly dipped to $382.4 million, a 4.8 percent decrease from the previous year’s $401.8 million, indicating the competitive and evolving retail landscape.</p>
