Suppose Target Corp reported a 6.7% rise in quarterly comparable sales, which was below analyst estimates, due to lower sales in its apparel and grocery businesses. The retailer's shares fell 4.2% in premarket trading. Analysts had expected a 6.9% increase in comparable sales.
Can we infer that "Target Corp's quarterly comparable sales exceeded analyst estimates due to strong performance in its apparel and grocery businesses"? Yes, no, or maybe?
