Designer Brands' (DBI) Q4 Earnings Upcoming: What to Expect

Designer Brands DBI is likely to register a decrease in the top line when it reports fourth-quarter fiscal 2022 results on Mar 16, before the opening bell. The Zacks Consensus Estimate for revenues is pegged at $793 million, indicating a drop of 3.6% from the prior-year quarter’s level.

The Zacks Consensus Estimate for the fourth quarter is pegged at a loss of 2 cents per share, which compared unfavorably with earnings per share of 15 cents recorded in the year-earlier quarter. The consensus estimate has been stable over the past 30 days.

Designer Brands has a trailing four-quarter earnings surprise of 32% on average. In the last reported quarter, the company missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate by 9.5%.

Key Factors to Note

Designer Brands’ quarterly performance might have been hurt by a challenging operating landscape, including numerous issues like supply-chain bottlenecks, inflation, higher costs and currency headwinds. Higher inflationary pressures have been hitting the consumers’ discretionary spending and in turn, weighing on the company’s performance.

Any deleverage in SG&A costs might have been added deterrents. All these limitations might have hurt the company’s performance during the quarter under review.

On the flip side, the company is smoothly progressing in its brand-building strategy. It is also focused on customer acquisition, optimizing assortment and developing brands to aid growth. Designer Brands’ flexible business model has been helping the company navigate a tough macro landscape.
