Michael Kors Holdings (NYSE:KORS) Releasing: 08/08/17
The Estimize consensus calls for EPS of $0.63, one cent higher than Wall Street’s consensus of $0.62. Currently, the Estimize community is looking for revenues of $920.33M, slightly higher than the Street’s expectation for $917.88M.
The Estimize community projected same-store sales to fall by 9.71% and for projected YoY growth for same-store sales to decrease by a whopping 31%. Furthermore, the stock’s EPS is projected to have a negative YoY growth of 28% and its revenue is also projected to decrease 7% YoY. Michael Kors has been trying to get its act together to provide better fundamentals and one of its strategies has been acquiring luxury shoe designer, Jimmy Choo (LON:CHOO). Since the announcement, KORS has seen a 5% increase and Jimmy Choo’s London traded shares have spiked to 63%. Despite these strategic moves, the company has had trouble lately. Although hitting a peak in February 2014, the shares have lost roughly 62%, which could make it hard to stage a comeback. The retail market in general has had trouble as many consumers no longer shop in stores, instead doing most of their shopping online via platforms like PoshMark, Amazon (NASDAQ:AMZN) and eBay (NASDAQ:EBAY).
I'm keen to see how the changing retail market continues to impact stocks like Michael Kors and bigger department stores such as Nordstrom (NYSE:JWN) and Macy’s (NYSE:M).
