In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings and revenues beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 159.3% and 22.6%, respectively. Also, earnings and revenues increased significantly from the year-ago period. Markedly, the company beat earnings expectations in the trailing five quarters, the average being 40%. The outperformance was led by solid financial performance and the company’s continued strength in the business model.

Trend in Estimate Revision

For the quarter to be reported, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings per share has moved 0.4% down to $2.22 over the past 30 days. The estimated figure indicates an increase of 37% from $1.62 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $2.04 billion, suggesting 27.2% growth from the year-ago reported figure of $1.61 billion.

Factors to Consider

The company’s earnings and revenues for second-quarter 2021 are expected to improve on a year-over-year basis owing to the operational initiatives and the company’s overall performance along with website activity across all its brands. During first-quarter 2021, website user sessions grew 50% year over year to 48 million sessions.

Moreover, the company’s recently-launched initiative to buy online and pick up from store is likely to have driven revenues, improved delivery time and reduced shipping costs, thereby boosting margins in the quarter to be reported.
