Read MoreHide Full Article

SpartanNash Company (SPTN - Free Report) is likely to register an increase in the top and the the bottom line when it reports fourth-quarter 2022 earnings on Feb 23, before the opening bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for quarterly revenues is pegged at $2,232 million, indicating a rise of about 6.8% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fourth-quarter earnings of 36 cents suggests growth of almost 100% from the year-ago period’s tally. The consensus mark has been stable over the past 30 days.

A glance at this grocery retailer’s performance over the trailing four quarters shows that it has an earnings surprise of 8.4%, on average.

Factors to Note

SpartanNash fourth-quarter results are likely to benefit from the solid execution of its Winning Recipe plan, which focuses on transforming its supply chain to boost overall growth. The company is focused on streamlining its operations and making strategic investments, including the expansion of capabilities across the distribution centers.

In addition, SPTN remains committed to boosting its solutions across both the digital and physical platforms, and expansion of its grocery services. All these tailwinds coupled with the improving trends at SPTN’s Retail unit might have aided the results during the quarter under review.

On the flip side, a tough operating landscape including inflationary pressures might have been concern. Any deleverage in the operating expenses is likely to show on SpartanNash’s bottom-line performance in the upcoming quarterly release. The company has been witnessing higher operating costs for a while now.
