What Awaits Sportsman's Warehouse (SPWH) This Earnings Season?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Sportsman's Warehouse Holdings, Inc. (SPWH - Free Report) is likely to register a decline in the top line when it reports second-quarter fiscal 2023 earnings on Sep 6 after market close. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues stands at $327 million, indicating a decline of 6.9% from the prior-year reported figure.
The bottom line of this outdoor sporting goods retailer is expected to have decreased year over year. Over the past 30 days, the Zacks Consensus Estimate for second-quarter earnings per share has been stable at 3 cents, suggesting a sharp decline from 36 cents reported in the year-ago quarter.
Sportsman's Warehouse has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 18.1%, on average. In the last reported quarter, this West Jordan, UT-based company missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by a margin of 5.4%.
Factors to Note
In the first quarter, sales during the usual spring fishing, camping and shooting seasons were materially impacted due to underlying inflationary pressures as well as unusually wet and cold weather in the Western United States, where a substantial number of the company’s stores are located. Management informed that tough macroeconomic conditions and soft demand in the camping and fishing categories continue to exert pressure on the business. We believe these are likely to have hurt second-quarter performance.
On its last earnings call, management guided second-quarter net sales between $310 million and $340 million, down from $351 million reported in the year-ago period. Sportsman's Warehouse projected a same-store sales decline of 9-17% and earnings between 2 cents and 15 cents a share.
However, management’s focus on curtailing expenses and bolstering financial discipline should have provided some cushion. Sportsman's Warehouse’s strategic initiatives comprising investments in e-commerce, growing store footprint and better engagement with customers have been helpful in gaining market share in the outdoor sporting goods market.
