Chewy (CHWY) Lined Up for Q3 Earnings: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Chewy, Inc. (CHWY - Free Report) is expected to report top-line growth in its third-quarter fiscal 2022 results results on Dec 8, after the market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly sales stands at $2,451 million, indicating an 11% increase from the last fiscal-year quarter’s reported figure.
However, Chewy’s bottom line is expected to decline from the last fiscal-year quarter’s reported figure. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for loss in the fiscal third quarter has been stable over the past 30 days at 8 cents a share. CHWY reported a loss per share of 3 cents in the year-earlier quarter.
This pet food and other pet-related supplier delivered an earnings surprise of 64.5%, on average, in the trailing four quarters. In the last reported fiscal quarter, Chewy recorded an earnings surprise of 141.7%.
Key Factors to Note
Chewy’s sales performance for the fiscal third quarter is quite likely to have benefited from its e-commerce channels, product assortments and innovation efforts. Management has been making technology upgrades for its website and online platforms for some time to drive online sales.
Higher product demand, robust consumer engagement and growth in active customers are steadily contributing to results. Additionally, CHWY’s pharmacy business bodes well.
However, the company’s quarterly performance might have been hurt by a tough macroeconomic environment, including headwinds like supply-chain issues and global inflationary pressures. These factors coupled with any deleverage in selling, general and administrative expenses might have affected CHWY’s performance in the fiscal third quarter.
