We did, however, see a solid increase among our specialty store formats led by strong sales increases from Sears Automotive Group and solid Hardware store increases," said Chairman and Chief Executive Officer Alan J. Lacy. "While Full-line stores sales were down, major appliances continued to be a bright spot registering solid increases."
