    Pier 1 Imports (PIR) Stock Up in After-Hours Trading as Q4 Results Top Expectations
    NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Pier 1 Imports (PIR) shares are rising by 0.82% to $7.40 in after-hours trading on Wednesday, immediately following the home decor and furniture retailer's robust 2016 fourth quarter results.

    Earnings came in at 39 cents a share, exceeding Wall Street's estimates of 21 cents a share and flat from a year ago.

    Revenue of $535.7 million also topped forecasts of $524.13 million, but fell from $543.6 million it reported the previous year.

    PIR tried to break through the 200MA today and could not, but did rise 5.61% as of market close. They beat expectations and jumped in after hours another 5%ish and then dropped down and are now down 5.18% in after hours. Very odd. Expecting this one to be a decent gainer tomorrow after a real good earnings report.
