Bassett Furniture Industries, Incorporated Price and EPS Surprise
The consensus mark for net sales is pegged at $78.6 million, indicating a year-over-year decline of 9.9%.
Factors to Shape Up BSET’s Results
Bassett’s top line is expected to decline year over year due to the adverse impacts of the closure of a few of its manufacturing plants and sluggish demand trends due to lingering inflation and a slow housing market trajectory. This, accompanied by the ransomware attack faced by the company in July 2024, is likely to have disrupted the smoothness of its business operations, thus negatively impacting its top-line growth. BSET’s decision to close its mid-price e-commerce furniture retailer, Noa Home, due to its inability to generate sales and earn profit margins, is also likely to have hurt its sales trend.
Nonetheless, the company’s focus on a newly drafted restructuring strategy underscoring organic growth through branded retail locations, omnichannel capabilities and enhanced customization positioning, along with optimizing inventory and dropping unproductive lines, is likely to have partially offset the headwinds.
BSET’s bottom line is also expected to be marred due to a decline in net sales and ongoing restructuring initiatives to foster growth in this uncertain economic condition. That said, the company’s focus on improving its overall cost structure is likely to have bode well to some extent.
