Read MoreHide Full Article
Kohl's Corporation (KSS - Free Report) is likely to register a decline in the top and the bottom line when it reports first-quarter fiscal 2022 earnings on May 19. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues is pegged at $3,854 million, suggesting a dip of 0.8% from the figure reported in the prior-year quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Kohl's quarterly earnings has moved down by a penny in the last 30 days to 78 cents per share. The projection indicates a drop of 25.7% from earnings of $1.05 per share reported in the year-ago quarter. The branded apparel, footwear, accessories, beauty and home products retailer’s bottom line outpaced the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 4.8% in the last reported quarter.
Kohl's Corporation Price, Consensus and EPS Surprise
Kohl's has been grappling with escalated selling, general & administrative expenses (SG&A) for a while now. In its last earnings call, management highlighted that it expects SG&A expenses to increase in the first of fiscal 2022, owing to the opening of 400 Sephora stores and related store refresh costs.
In addition, Kohl's has been battling increased freight and product cost inflation. Supply-chain headwinds, including inventory receipt delays have been hurting the company’s performance. The persistence of these factors is a threat to the company’s first-quarter fiscal 2022 performance.
