Year-over-year sales grew (+0.7%), but month-over-month sales slipped (-0.5%).<\/p>\n<p>With winter storms impacting much of the country in late January, consumer foot traffic saw its sharpest year-over-year decline (-2.0%) since mid-2022; foot traffic also dropped (-0.8%) month over month.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIn January, small businesses faced headwinds as consumers rebalanced their spending following a busy holiday season, and winter weather kept many at home during the latter half of the month,\u201d said Prasanna Dhore, Chief Data Officer, Fiserv. \u201cAs a result, restaurants, hotels and several retail categories saw the sharp slowdowns in sales, while select service-based businesses posted strong sales gains to start the year.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Key Takeaways<\/strong>\n      <\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Discretionary spending softened while essentials remained stable<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Discretionary sales fell year over year (\u20110.4%) and month over month (-0.7%), driven by foot traffic declines (\u20112.4% year over year; -1.1% month over month). Essential sales remained strong year over year (+2.2%) but were flat month over month.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Professional and Administrative Services saw pockets of strength<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Administrative and Support Services grew (+1.1%) month over month, helped by growth in storm\u2011related service categories. Tax Preparation Services also recorded strong seasonal acceleration, growing (+9.3%) year over year and (+5.6%) month over month. Broadly, Professional Services sales were strong, rising (+5.1%) compared to January 2025.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Retail held steady, with core categories driving modest growth<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Small business retail sales were essentially flat year over year and month over month. Retail foot traffic rose, suggesting consumers remain active but have become increasingly selective. Core retail (which includes grocery, clothing and furniture) delivered the most gains (+1.5%) year over year, while non\u2011core retail (gas, motor parts and building materials) declined (\u20112.7%) year over year.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Restaurant sales declined as foot traffic fell off sharply <\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>Restaurant sales fell (-1.8%) year over year, driven by significant foot traffic declines (\u20113.6%) compared to 2025. Limited\u2011service restaurants posted the largest sales declines, dropping (\u20113.4%) year over year alongside steep traffic losses (\u20115.0%). Average ticket sizes rose (+1.6%) year over year, offering only a partial offset. Full\u2011service dining also softened, though less severely.<\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>Winter Storm Impact<\/strong><br \/>\n        <br \/>For more information on the impact of Winter Storm Fern on regions and business types across the U.S., <a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=4XLT2SSmLP5UA7_YWxoLJZfflm8_H5qaRbaMqTYOdFABQKoaWzoBU-Hbynz1Rt4joAtMk63mNMrVo01UUzzeWGimo58A141rqZqdPFVwnDQ7UIZVFlpQJZiNU-nhrAjGA5zk6ciPG1O0wZXyfFWt95p5DInKdOf2avHTlLXkjTUXUoCuSryj312KPXjo52qKGeqnmWP0g_GrNqyADWeJNtKcSU-mYCAcsOwOa2923tQyE7CECn1K_pLmwSn5XLXnA6pJkQ0PTMWltrnY3NW1fHPbBbbcnEzwtW1MeLhnaAGJoLMwkLKO84KQEJ40rqHUdnZ-j0cOd7FzC5GrWJC28g==\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">Fiserv published this special report in late January<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>To access the full Fiserv Small Business Index, visit\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.globenewswire.com\/Tracker?data=4DMagl-36dLR1ER8xwDX72X8homx9bFmkhpOPFsrCWef8VWM_MEL4x0E6sj3tz9AHQ2zi9m02aFm21EIsEW3uYYs_vDyqSCO0E45miUHZ0qWN5KgtgZNQ9hRdJD-vco6Wmj9z6iyvPflijykIAT5oRqPerVg5m6TeZ3dHFsZgtc=\" rel=\"nofollow\" target=\"_blank\">fiserv.com\/FiservSmallBusinessIndex.<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\n        <strong>About the Fiserv Small Business Index<\/strong><br \/>\n        <sup><br \/>\n          <strong>\u00ae<\/strong><br \/>\n        <\/sup>\n      <\/p>\n<p>The Fiserv Small Business Index is published during the first week of every month and differentiated by its direct aggregation of consumer spending activity within the U.S. small business ecosystem.
