Earnings per share jumped from a loss of ($6.94) per fully diluted share to a gain of $7.25 per fully diluted shares. Last year Dillard’s kept most stores open, but the customers stayed at home ecause of the pandemic caused by Covid-19. Dillard’s reduction of inventory by 17% gives buyers more strength in buying fresh merchandise for the summer selling season. I am expecting strong selling and earning results in Dillard’s second quarter ended July 31, 2021. At the end of the quarter the company operated 250 Dillard’s locations and 31 clearance centers.
