1326 ET - Jefferies says J.Jill's bottom line was better-than-expected thanks to continued operational discipline. Analysts also are optimistic that new CEO Mary Ellen Coyne can use her 30 years of experience to introduce newness and scale omni-channel distribution. But they also say macroeconomic pressures are clouding the company's outlook, noting that traffic has struggled recently, and the company pulled its guidance for the year. "While it appears consumer spending habits have shifted and are likely to affect performance, we believe J.Jill's strong management team is taking the correct steps to ensure results remain healthy in the current environment," they write. J.Jill tumbles 13%. (connor.hart@wsj.com)
