CHRISTOPHER & BANKS CORPORATION REPORTS FISCAL

OCTOBER SALES RESULTS

Minneapolis, MN, November 8, 2007 — Christopher & Banks Corporation (NYSE: CBK) today reported fiscal October sales results and updated its third quarter earnings guidance.

For the five-week period ended November 3, 2007, total sales were $66.4 million compared to $53.0 million for the five-week period ended October 28, 2006. October same-store sales for the five-weeks ended November 3, 2007 as compared to the five-week period ended November 4, 2006 increased 22% due in large part to the positive results of the Company’s first ever friends and family promotion.

Total sales for the eight fiscal months ended November 3, 2007 were $402.3 million compared to $369.1 million for the eight fiscal months ended October 28, 2006. Same-store sales for the thirty-five fiscal weeks ended November 3, 2007 were up 3% when compared to the corresponding thirty-five week period ended November 4, 2006. As of November 3, 2007, the Company operated 825 stores compared to 771 stores as of October 28, 2006.

Lorna Nagler, President and Chief Executive Officer, commented, “We are extremely pleased with our October same-store sales results. The majority of the 22% comparable store sales increase was due to the overwhelming success of our planned friends and family promotion. In addition, October merchandise margins were in line with last year’s levels.

We were pleased with the low-single digit increase in same-store sales for the first four weeks of fiscal October as compared to the corresponding four week period of last year. Customer response to our first ever friends and family event featured on the last Saturday of our October fiscal month and the first Sunday of our November fiscal month significantly exceeded our expectations and led to our outstanding performance in October.”

Ms. Nagler concluded, “Inventories continue to be well managed. We anticipate inventory receipts on a per store basis will be down more than 10% from November through the end of our fiscal year as compared to last year.”

Financial Outlook

The Company currently anticipates fiscal 2008 third quarter earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $0.26 to $0.28. This compares to third quarter of fiscal 2007 earnings per diluted share of $0.24. The updated third quarter guidance reflects the expectation for a low to mid-single digit same-store sales increase in November same-store sales. For the year, the Company estimates earnings per diluted share to be in the range of $0.74 to $0.78, compared to $0.89 per share last year.

In addition, the Company announced that it purchased 75,000 shares of its common stock in October. The Company has now purchased 561,100 shares of its common stock at a total cost of approximately $8.0 million under its current $20 million repurchase program.
