It previously expected sales to be up just "slightly." It also said it expects operating income to see mid-to-high 60% growth range, higher than the 50% range it provided previously.

“Holiday is off to a strong start, and we remain focused on executing with excellence in the fourth quarter," CEO Richard Dickson said in the company's earnings release. "Our performance year-to-date gives us the confidence to raise our full year outlook for sales, gross margin and operating income growth."
The better outlook overshadowed a miss in the company's comparable sales in its fiscal third quarter. Comparable sales grew 1% in the three months ended, trailing the 1.7% expected by analysts, according to estimates compiled by Bloomberg.
Earnings rose to 72 cents a share in the quarter, from 58 cents a year earlier. That surpassed estimates that called for 58 cents a share. Revenue totaled $3.83 billion, better than the $3.81 billion expected by analysts.
