The Estee Lauder Companies Inc. Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
The Estee Lauder Companies’ Skin Care portfolio has been performing well for a while now. The company is also benefiting from growing online business. In this regard, management is implementing new technology and digital experiences, including online booking for each store appointment, omni-channel programs and high-touch services.
Management expects third-quarter fiscal 2022 net sales growth in the band of 10-12% year over year. Organic net sales growth is anticipated between 8-9% in the quarter under review. The company highlighted that net additional sales from acquisitions, divestitures and brand closures are likely to have added nearly 3 points to growth. Foreign currency translation is likely to have been an almost 1 point headwind. The company expects quarterly earnings per share (EPS) in the range of $1.55-$1.65.
Inflationary pressures across the supply chain are likely to have put pressure on the company’s cost of goods in the to-be-reported quarter. Also, the spread of the Omicron variant is likely to have dampened brick and mortar sales in the fiscal third quarter.
