Re-examining Estimates Ahead of Earnings Report in March

Steelcase is expected to report 4QFY24, ended February 23, in mid- to late March. We expect EPS of $0.22 on sales of $784 million. FactSet consensus is $0.21 on sales of $780 million. Our focus in the coming quarter will be on margin and efficiencies. End demand in the sector is challenging and we don’t expect any change. In 3Q, Steelcase won new orders and we will be watching if that carries through to 4Q and beyond. Ahead of the report and in anticipation of guidance, we are adjusting our FY25 quarterly estimates. Our full-year EPS estimate is down slightly to $0.97 from $1.00. The quarterly sequence of revenue and earnings is adjusted to reflect a seasonal pattern. The most noticeable change is a lower sales and EPS estimate in 1Q and higher sales and earnings in 2Q.
