Chico's quarterly loss deeper, but beats view

Chico's spring-summer 2009

* Q4 loss $0.14/shr vs. Wall St. loss view $0.17/shr

* Q4 revenue down to $373.4 million

NEW YORK, March 3 (Reuters) - Women's apparel retailer Chico's FAS Inc (CHS.N) on Tuesday posted a deeper quarterly loss, but topped Wall Street's estimates, even as it faced lower sales and gross margin during the period.

The net loss was $40.5 million, or 23 cents per share in the fiscal fourth quarter that ended Jan. 31, from a loss of $20.5 million, or 12 cents per share, a year earlier.

Excluding costs tied to noncash impairment, after-tax severance and workforce reduction, Chico's loss of 14 cents a share was not as bad as the average expectation for a loss of 17 cents per share, according to Reuters Estimates.

Sales fell to $373.4 million from $409.3 million a year earlier. Same-store sales fell 13 percent in the quarter, the company said.

Chico's has been cutting jobs and limiting capital spending to trim costs and weather a long slump in sales. The retailer, whose clothing is targeted at women in their 50s and older, has also been trying to upgrade its merchandise and image to spur demand.
