NEGATIVE IMPACT
Destination XL's Q3 sales miss and lowered full-year outlook, coupled with a decline in gross margin and adjusted EBITDA, have led to a 7.90% drop in its share price.
The negative impact on DXLG's stock is due to the company's failure to meet sales expectations and the subsequent lowering of its financial outlook, which typically erodes investor confidence and can lead to a sell-off in the short term.
