Read MoreHide Full Article
Bassett Furniture Industries, Incorporated’s (BSET - Free Report) first-quarter fiscal 2024 earnings and revenues are expected to have decreased on a year-over-year basis owing to a difficult sales environment for home furnishings.
In the last reported quarter, the company’s earnings topped the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 350% but declined 75.4% year over year. Net sales topped the consensus mark by 4.5% but decreased 21.7% from the prior-year’s level.
Earnings surpassed the consensus mark in three of the trailing four quarters and missed on one occasion.
Trend in Estimate Revision
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for Bassett’s fiscal first-quarter earnings has remained stable at 1 cent per share over the past 60 days. The estimated figure indicates a 93.8% decline from the year-ago earnings of 16 cents per share.
Bassett Furniture Industries, Incorporated Price and EPS Surprise
The consensus mark for revenues is $91.61 million, suggesting a year-over-year decline of 14.9%.
Factors to Note
Bassett is expected to have witnessed lackluster sales and earnings performance in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The company has been witnessing lower wholesale shipments in both the open market and BHF store network as well as reduced retail delivered sales. These headwinds are likely to have ailed the fiscal first quarter as well.
BSET has been investing in plant and equipment upgrades in its manufacturing footprint to provide a better work environment for the associates and improve efficiency.
The company expects to see improvement in the overall margins, backed by cycle through excess Club Level inventory and imported wood product that both had the inflated container freight from 2022.
