Saks (SKS) Company Overview
Saks Incorporated (NYSE:SKS) sells luxury apparel, shoes, jewelry and accessories in the U.S. through its Saks Fifth Avenue (SFA), Saks Fifth Avenue Off Fifth and Club Libby Lu (CLL) stores. In fiscal 2010, SKS posted net sales of $2.786 billion and net income of $47.85 million.[1]

Due to healthier U.S. economic conditions, Saks made profits in fiscal 2010, compared to losses suffered in 2008 and 2009.[1]
