Delta Apparel Announces Preliminary First Quarter Results

Delta Apparel on Monday announced preliminary results for its 2019 fiscal first quarter ended Dec. 29, 2018.

The company anticipates overall net sales for the first quarter of its 2019 fiscal year to come in ahead of expectations at approximately $101 million, or about a 12 percent increase from prior year net sales of $90.3 million. The growth was driven by solid double-digit gains in the company’s Salt Life business, as well as in its digital print business, which successfully completed its first holiday season with consolidated operations including the DTG2Go and SSI Digital Print businesses acquired in the last 10 months.
