Stay up-to-date with all quarterly releases: See Zacks Earnings Calendar.
Factors to Note Ahead of AOUT’s Q2 Release
The company's results in the quarter-to-be-reported are likely to be hurt by persistent headwinds in the shooting sports category. Broader challenges in the market for firearms and related accessories, caused by reduced consumer demand, are likely to have hurt the company’s performance. A cautious consumer spending environment is likely to have hurt outdoor cooking and rugged outdoor product performance in second-quarter fiscal 2025.
Operating expenses are expected to have risen slightly, due to increased selling and distribution costs associated with seasonal inventory builds. This could have weighed on profitability. The retail landscape remains competitive, with some partners still managing inventory imbalances. This environment, coupled with cautious consumer behavior, might have forced American Outdoor Brands to engage in promotions, potentially impacting margins.
