TPR Pre-Earnings Report – Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST)
Published on May 23, 2012 at 11:52 pm
Costco Wholesale Corp. (COST) reports earnings promptly and consistently at 3:00AM Eastern. What are these guys doing up that early in the morning? Without a doubt every time we have been in this store, it is extremely packed and consumers are buying up everything in site and in bulk. Although sales per square footage may be low due to the ridiculous size of the place, the traffic it sees is probably comparable, if not greater than Apple (AAPL). From personal experience, the customer service is outstanding, product offerings are quality and prices while in bulk are at the perfect point. What’s not to like about this place?
