Kontoor Brands (KTB) Q1 Earnings Coming Up: What's in the Cards?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Kontoor Brands, Inc. (KTB - Free Report) is set to report first-quarter 2023 earnings on May 4, before the market open. The bottom line of this global lifestyle apparel company is expected to have decreased year over year.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.14 per share for the first quarter has been stable in the past 30 days. The figure shows a decline of 18.6% from $1.40 per share earned in the year-ago period.
The consensus estimate for quarterly revenues stands at $679 million, indicating a fall of 0.1% from the prior-year reported figure.
This Greensboro, NC-based company has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 12.4%, on average. In the last reported quarter, the company’s bottom line beat the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a margin of 15.8%.
Key Things to Note
Kontoor Brands’ quarterly results are likely to reflect the impacts of a tough operating backdrop, including inflationary pressures. In addition, supply-chain challenges and currency headwinds remain deterrents. These weaknesses and any deleverage in selling, general and administrative expenses are expected to have hurt Kontoor Brands’ performance in the quarter under review.
On its last earnings call, management stated that the effects from the China mix will have the greatest pronounced impact on the first half, mainly in the first quarter. Also, inflationary pressures on input costs are deterrents. The company anticipated modest year-over-year gross margin pressure in the first half of the year, with a heavy impact on first-quarter margin.
On the flip side, the company is focused on boosting growth at its direct-to-consumer channels and enhancing its footprint across international markets. Kontoor Brands has been making strategic investments in talent, demand creation and innovation to aid growth.

The combination of a positive Earnings ESP and a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold) increases the odds of an earnings beat. But that’s not the case here.
