NEW YORK- Macy's, Inc. (NYSE: M) today reported results for the third quarter of 2020.

'Macy's, Inc. third quarter results reflect solid performance across all three brands - Macy's, Bloomingdale's and Bluemercury. Our results were driven by disciplined cost management, strong execution by our colleagues and an early start to the holiday shopping season,' said Jeff Gennette, chairman and chief executive officer of Macy's, Inc. 'Customers shopped our brands across all channels in the third quarter and responded well to our expanded fulfillment offerings, such as curbside, store pickup and same-day delivery. Our digital business delivered strong growth and sales in our stores continued to recover. Customers have shifted their spending to casual apparel and categories they can enjoy as they stay at home. Several of these categories, including home furnishings, jewelry and fragrance, have generated double-digit sales growth compared to last year.'

'Looking to Holiday 2020, we know this year is different. We are committed to bringing the joy of the season to America as we do every year. From next week's Thanksgiving Day Parade to reimagined family gatherings, we will help our customers and their families celebrate in style. We have the right gifting assortment with newness from value to luxury, and our expanded fulfillment options allow customers to shop safely and conveniently, in store or online,' continued Gennette.
