COTY Gears Up for Q3 Earnings: What Awaits the Stock?
Read MoreHide Full Article
Coty Inc. (COTY - Free Report) is likely to register top-line growth when it reports third-quarter fiscal 2024 numbers on May 6. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $1.4 billion, suggesting growth of 6.6% from the prior-year quarter’s reported figure.
The company’s bottom line is likely to decline year over year in the fiscal third quarter. The consensus mark for quarterly earnings has remained unchanged in the past 30 days at 6 cents per share, projecting a plunge of 68.4% from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure. COTY has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 115.3%, on average.
Coty has been capitalizing on favorable market trends in the global beauty market. The company has been witnessing momentum in its core categories, driven by brand strength, product launches and expansion into untapped areas. Gains from Coty’s prudent partnerships are also contributing to the upside. The company’s focus on strategic pillars, like strengthening e-commerce and Direct-to-Consumer business, among others, bodes well.
All these upsides, along with management’s guidance for the second half of fiscal 2024, indicate favorable signals for fiscal third-quarter revenues. For the second half of fiscal 2024, Coty expects Like-for-like (LFL) revenue growth in the range of 6-8%.
Coty has been witnessing strength in the Prestige and Consumer Beauty businesses. Our model suggests revenue growth of 5.9% and 2.8%, respectively, for the Prestige and Consumer Beauty units in the fiscal third quarter.
However, Coty has been witnessing dynamic inflation and a supply chain environment. Our model suggests a 0.9% increase in the adjusted cost of sales for the third quarter of fiscal 2024, with SG&A expenses expected to rise 4.5% year over year. That being said, management’s focus on cost-saving efforts, evident from the All In to Win transformation program, is likely to have offered respite.
