Factors Likely to Influence V.F. Corp (VFC) In Q3 Earnings
Read MoreHide Full Article
V.F. Corporation (VFC - Free Report) is slated to report third-quarter fiscal 2022 results on Jan 28, before the opening bell. The lifestyle apparel designer is expected to have witnessed earnings and sales growth in the to-be-reported quarter.
The Zacks Consensus Estimate for fiscal third-quarter earnings is pegged at $1.21 per share, which suggests substantial growth of 30.1% from 93 cents reported in the year-ago quarter. Earnings estimates have been unchanged in the past 30 days. The consensus mark for revenues is pegged at $3.61 billion, indicating growth of 21.4% from that reported in the year-ago quarter.
The company reported a negative earnings surprise of 5.1% in the last reported quarter. However, its earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 32.9%, on average, in the trailing four quarters.
V.F. Corp has been witnessing positive demand trends, which are expected to have continued in the fiscal third quarter. Contribution from the Supreme brand on the back of Supreme’s strong follower base among the younger generation also bodes well. Growth in the EMEA and North America regions, as well as strength in its largest brands, including The Vans, The North Face, Timberland and Dickies, should have aided the top line in the fiscal third quarter.
The company remains on track with the digital and hyper-digital business model transformation, which has been boosting the top line for the past few quarters. Buy online, pickup in store, and curbside delivery options have been aiding digital sales. The digital business is also expected to have benefited from the sturdy performance across almost every brand in the portfolio, including the pure-play digital wholesale partners.
However, management continues to reel under the pandemic-led disruptions. Owing to the resurgence of COVID cases, manufacturing capacity constraints, port delays, equipment availability and other logistics challenges have been dragging the company’s performance. Higher freight costs are also likely to have acted as deterrents.
