Steelcase’s Q1 Expectations

The consensus estimate for Steelcase’s first-quarter fiscal 2026 revenues is $756 million, indicating a 3.9% increase from that reported in the same quarter last year. The top line is anticipated to have been fueled by positive momentum in office leasing activity across the United States and the European region.

We anticipate the Americas segment to deliver promising results on the back of strong demand from large corporate and government customers, and an emphasis on work from office. Also, positive signals in corporate real estate, evidenced by the U.S. leasing volume growing more than 15% from the first quarter of 2024, per JLL, are likely to have been other drivers.

The International segment is expected to have improved due to strong demand across India and Spain. Per JLL, large transactions (greater than 2,500 sqm) are playing important roles in the European market’s recovery, mainly in the U.K. and Germany, which is why we are somewhat optimistic about these regions’ contributions to the top line.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for earnings is pegged at 12 cents per share, implying a 25% decrease from the year-ago quarter’s reported figure.
