Zumiez shares rose after the company beat expectations in the second quarter, aided by strong back-to-school shopping.

The stock climbed 12%, to $20.68, midday Friday. Shares have increased 9% this year.

The apparel and footwear retailer logged an adjusted loss of 6 cents a share, compared with the loss of 11 cents a share that analysts were expecting.

Sales rose 2%, to $214.3 million, beating the $210.5 million estimate from Wall Street.

Sales trends improved throughout the quarter, in spite of difficult comparisons, Chief Executive Rick Brooks said. That improvement is expected to continue into the third quarter, as back-to-school shopping is driving revenue.

The Lynnwood, Wash., company anticipates sales in the third quarter to be $232 million to $237 million with same-store sales up 5.5% to 7.5%.
