Key brands are being spotlighted this fall as part of the Uncontained brand campaign launch, and for many of them, it is the first time for their products to be sold in brick-and-mortar stores nationwide. Customers will discover sustainable, magnetic travel Capsules from Cadence, bath essentials like organic cotton towels and robes, and hinoki wood accent furniture from socially conscious home goods company, The Citizenry, kitchen knives and prep essentials from eco-conscious kitchenware brand, Material, elegant crystal glassware and barware from home entertaining brand, Fortessa, aesthetically pleasing professional-grade coffee gear from Fellow, and natural skincare essentials from Australia-based Heales Apothecary. These brands and more are intended to elevate and transform customers’ everyday lives alongside the Company’s core offering.

"We are thrilled to bring innovative, sought-after brands to The Container Store that we believe will positively impact our customers’ everyday lives," said The Container Store Chief Merchandising Officer, Stacey Shively. "Considering evolving customer needs, our merchant team evaluated our entire assortment, identified key growth categories that complement the organizing solutions and custom spaces customers are already coming to us for, and have curated an unmatched assortment. We began infusing newness in growth categories with home fragrances and sustainable cleaning last year, and have continued to expand this focus with back-to-college and on-the-go which launched in June. Sales in these specified categories not only exceeded our expectations at launch, but also brought in new customers to shop with us."

In addition to new product categories and brand introductions across The Container Store’s general merchandise assortment, Uncontained will support the ongoing innovation of the premium Container Store Custom Spaces offering. With on-trend finishes, hardware and unique features – like smart-home compatible lighting – a custom space designed specifically for one's needs is the ultimate way to transform and elevate their every day.

"The Uncontained campaign is a simple, light-hearted play on how consumers traditionally think about The Container Store, for containing things, but we offer much more," said Chief Marketing Officer of The Container Store, Melissa Collins. "Our objective with the campaign is to drive awareness among current and new customers that we have new, innovative solutions for the whole home that complement why they are already shopping with us. We are staying true to our purpose to transform lives through the power of organization, and these products only enhance it."

Uncontained will appear across all key customer touchpoints including owned channels, in-store, direct mail, on digital properties such as containerstore.com, email, SMS, The Container Store App, social media, and Brand Ambassadors and Influencer channels. The evergreen campaign will continue to support new product introductions across the company’s general merchandise and Custom Spaces offerings including the upcoming holiday season and new year.

The Container Store has also transformed one of its Dallas-Fort Worth locations into a concept store to test visual merchandising strategies that bring new and existing brands to life in unique ways. For example, while all stores will offer a collection of products from The Citizenry, the Plano store will exclusively feature an expanded 650 square-foot shop-in-shop. The space will showcase an expansive assortment of mix-and-match stonewashed linen and organic cotton bedding, pillows, baskets and décor, on display for the first time outside of The Citizenry’s New York Flagship store. A Container Store Custom Spaces Preston wall-bed will further bring the brand's award-winning bedding and signature style to life.

TCS $8 we'll get at somepoint this year.

That's what I'm saying, I was house sitting in an apartment in Denver and she ordered a shit ton of stuff from there. With more and more people living in apartments I really do think it's the way to go.

Spoke w some employees today at the location near union sq in NY. Apparently this is the busiest summer they've seen. I'm hearing lots of good things that point to growth. Picked up shares today. Steal at these prices. This is a keeper, without a doubt.

I'm surprised how little traffic this forum has. I'd love to see more and more People join in with the price now on an upswing

They've made a lot of changes to the overall model in order to save money, I really think they're on the up-and-up at this point.

TCS Now Above PT- Ridiculous. Short!
At 7.89 PPS above Goldman PT raise today to 7.50
Low float walk-up.

TECSYS Reports 2nd Consecutive Quarter of Record Revenue, Increases Dividend
MONTREAL, QUEBEC--(Marketwired - Feb 27, 2014) - TECSYS Inc. (TSX:TCS), an industry-leading supply chain management software company, today announced its results for the third quarter of fiscal year 2014, ended January 31st, 2014. All dollar amounts are expressed in Canadian currency and are prepared in accordance with the International Financial Reporting Standards (IFRS) and are unaudited.

Cant help but add more at these recent levels.

Low 37's have been holding nicely. With only 60 stores and a plan for over 300 I like our chances here. Great growth opportunity for the patient. TCS

Picked up some more yesterday in the low 37s but it looks like I should of bought much more.

Starting to rebound here. Slow trend back up

At the same time, some members are doubtful that the company's financials measure up to its stock price. While the stock may look fully valued right now, we're looking for an inflection in growth. The pace of revenue growth has been accelerating each year since fiscal 2010. The adjusted EBITDA margin in that time has gone from 9.9% to 12.4%, so as dollars flow into stores more quickly, more of each is going to the bottom line. And although the company is only recently profitable, its solid cash flow (as well as money raised from the IPO) is allowing it to pick up the pace of expansion after several slow years. Another bonus is a recent credit upgrade from Moody's that will lower borrowing costs for any future debt. Cash flow from operations for the quarter ended Aug. 31 was up 150% from the prior year, while free cash flow swung from negative to positive.

Down BUT not out. Great company here with substantial expansion plans. Buy on dips

Thanks for the info justanotherdollar. I knew the earnings announcement was after close today. Need to pick up some more shares tomorrow while its down a little.

The market is noticing this company and expansion is a no brainer for this growth company

Room for much continued growth from this level. Projected to open over 150 more stores

The Container Store Beats by .03

Tindell continued: "Our commitment to our Foundation Principles and Conscious Capitalism, our focus on training, communication and solutions-based selling, coupled with strong partnerships with our vendors, results in an unmatched store experience for our customers as they shop the world's most comprehensive and celebrated collection of storage and organization solutions. With 63 stores today, we have a long runway of growth ahead of us as we expand our store base to realize the 300+ store opportunity that we believe exists."
