Bed Bath & Beyond Inc. shares rose 5.7% in Wednesday premarket trading after the home goods retailer reported fiscal first-quarter sales that beat expectations and comparable sales grew versus the same period pre-pandemic.
Sales of $1.954 billion were up from $1.307 billion last year and ahead of the FactSet consensus for $1.873 billion.

The FactSet consensus is for sales of $2.020 billion, a comparable sales decline of 0.1% and EPS of 51 cents.
