Genesco Q2 2025 Adj. EPS $(0.83) Beats $(1.11) Estimate, Sales $525.188M Beat $512.300M Estimate

The <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-ratings/analyst-color/24/09/40718185/could-august-jobs-numbers-keep-recession-fears-at-bay-this-time-is-different-analys">non-farm payrolls data is keeping traders on the tenterhook</a> and the index futures point to a negative opening on Friday. The caveat here is the the market mood could quickly pivot to positivity if the job gain comes in line with expectations. Following the data, traders get to hear from two Federal Reserve officials, possibly the last ones ahead of the Sept. 17-18 Federal Open Market Committee Meeting, given the blackout period starts on Saturday. 
The market direction depends on which worries the traders the most &#8211; a slowdown or the rate trajectory. If the job gains grossly disappoint just as its ADP counterpart did, the odds of a 50 basis-point could be in play. But it remains to be seen whether a weak job market would be considered a reason good enough to liquidate risky bets. The CBOE Volatility Index, commonly called the VIX, spiked by over 13%.
On the corporate front, Broadcom Corp.&#8217;s (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AVGO#NASDAQ">AVGO</a>) soft guidance is weighing down on the chipmaker&#8217;s stock and that of its peers as well.

Cues From Last Session:
U.S. stocks went about in a listless manner on Thursday as traders digested a weak ADP private payrolls number, fairly in-line initial jobless claims data and better-than-expected service sector activity readings. After a negative open, the major indices recovered and rose in the morning session. Lingering worries about Friday&#8217;s payroll numbers dragged the market lower yet again and the indices began to move in a lackluster manner before closing mixed. 
Gains in some heavy-weighted tech stocks lifted the Nasdaq to a higher close, as it snapped a two-session losing streak, while the S&amp;P 500 Index finished with a modest loss. The 30-stock Dow Jones Industrial Average and the small-cap Russell 2,000 Index settled moderately lower.
Eight of the 11 S&amp;P 500 sectors finished in the red, with industrial, material healthcare and financial stocks seeing marked weakness. On the other hand, consumer discretionary, communication services and IT stocks found some buying interest.

Insights From Analysts:
After August proved to be a wild month for stocks, September has so far lived up to expectations of being a seasonally weak month, and an analyst cautioned that the near term does not hold out much promise. LPL Financial Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist said the S&amp;P 500&#8217;s recovery has stalled just under its record highs hit in mid-July. 
The index stalled just around its 20- and 50-day simple moving averages. Turnquist noted that there is a price gap at 5,455 and further down, it has support around its August low of 5,119. In the event of a rally August and July highs of 5,648 and 5,667, respectively, will serve as resistances, he added.

&#8220;Momentum indicators have turned bearish, and signs of defensive leadership have begun to emerge, pointing to more volatility ahead,&#8221; Turnquist said, adding that &#8220;breakdowns in longer-duration Treasury yields, crude oil, and copper, along with a simultaneous breakout in gold, provide a warning sign of rising risks to an economic soft landing.&#8221;

<li>The August non-farm payrolls report, due to be released by the Bureau of Labor Statistics at 8:30 a.m. EDT, is widely expected to show that 161,000 jobs were added during the month, an increase from 114,000 jobs added in July.

US Stocks Set For Steep Fall Amid Heightened Anxiety Ahead Jobs Data, VIX Surges: Strategist Flags 2 Reasons Why He Expects More Volatility Ahead

Wall Street expects a year-over-year decline in earnings on lower revenues when Genesco (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/gco#NYSE">GCO</a>) reports results for the quarter ended July 2024. While this widely-known consensus outlook is important in gauging the company&#39;s earnings picture, a powerful factor that could impact its near-term stock price is how the actual results compare to these estimates.
The stock might move higher if these key numbers top expectations in the upcoming earnings report, which is expected to be released on September 6. On the other hand, if they miss, the stock may move lower.
While the sustainability of the immediate price change and future earnings expectations will mostly depend on management&#39;s discussion of business conditions on the earnings call, it&#39;s worth handicapping the probability of a positive EPS surprise.
<h2>Zacks Consensus Estimate</h2>
This seller of footwear, hats, clothing and accessories is expected to post quarterly loss of $1.12 per share in its upcoming report, which represents a year-over-year change of -31.8%.
Revenues are expected to be $512.19 million, down 2.1% from the year-ago quarter.
<h2>Estimate Revisions Trend</h2>
The consensus EPS estimate for the quarter has been revised 9.68% higher over the last 30 days to the current level. This is essentially a reflection of how the covering analysts have collectively reassessed their initial estimates over this period.
Investors should keep in mind that the direction of estimate revisions by each of the covering analysts may not always get reflected in the aggregate change.
<h2>Earnings Whisper</h2>
Estimate revisions ahead of a company&#39;s earnings release offer clues to the business conditions for the period whose results are coming out. Our proprietary surprise prediction model -- the Zacks Earnings ESP (Expected Surprise Prediction) -- has this insight at its core.
The Zacks Earnings ESP compares the Most Accurate Estimate to the Zacks Consensus Estimate for the quarter; the Most Accurate Estimate is a more recent version of the Zacks Consensus EPS estimate. The idea here is that analysts revising their estimates right before an earnings release have the latest information, which could potentially be more accurate than what they and others contributing to the consensus had predicted earlier.
Thus, a positive or negative Earnings ESP reading theoretically indicates the likely deviation of the actual earnings from the consensus estimate. However, the model&#39;s predictive power is significant for positive ESP readings only.
A positive Earnings ESP is a strong predictor of an earnings beat, particularly when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy), 2 (Buy) or 3 (Hold). Our research shows that stocks with this combination produce a positive surprise nearly 70% of the time, and a solid Zacks Rank actually increases the predictive power of Earnings ESP.
Please note that a negative Earnings ESP reading is not indicative of an earnings miss. Our research shows that it is difficult to predict an earnings beat with any degree of confidence for stocks with negative Earnings ESP readings and/or Zacks Rank of 4 (Sell) or 5 (Strong Sell).
<h2>How Have the Numbers Shaped Up for Genesco?</h2>
For Genesco, the Most Accurate Estimate is higher than the Zacks Consensus Estimate, suggesting that analysts have recently become bullish on the company&#39;s earnings prospects. This has resulted in an Earnings ESP of +3.14%.
On the other hand, the stock currently carries a Zacks Rank of #1.
So, this combination indicates that Genesco will most likely beat the consensus EPS estimate.
<h2>Does Earnings Surprise History Hold Any Clue?</h2>
While calculating estimates for a company&#39;s future earnings, analysts often consider to what extent it has been able to match past consensus estimates. So, it&#39;s worth taking a look at the surprise history for gauging its influence on the upcoming number.
For the last reported quarter, it was expected that Genesco would post a loss of $2.66 per share when it actually produced a loss of $2.10, delivering a surprise of +21.05%.
Over the last four quarters, the company has beaten consensus EPS estimates two times.
<h2>Bottom Line</h2>
An earnings beat or miss may not be the sole basis for a stock moving higher or lower. Many stocks end up losing ground despite an earnings beat due to other factors that disappoint investors. Similarly, unforeseen catalysts help a number of stocks gain despite an earnings miss.
That said, betting on stocks that are expected to beat earnings expectations does increase the odds of success. This is why it&#39;s worth checking a company&#39;s Earnings ESP and Zacks Rank ahead of its quarterly release.
Genesco appears a compelling earnings-beat candidate. However, investors should pay attention to other factors too for betting on this stock or staying away from it ahead of its earnings release.
<h2>An Industry Player&#39;s Expected Results</h2>
Another stock from the Zacks Retail - Apparel and Shoes industry, J.Jill (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/jill#NYSE">JILL</a>), is soon expected to post earnings of $0.94 per share for the quarter ended July 2024. This estimate indicates a year-over-year change of -14.6%. Revenues for the quarter are expected to be $155.13 million, down 0.4% from the year-ago quarter.
The consensus EPS estimate for J.Jill has remained unchanged over the last 30 days. However, a lower Most Accurate Estimate has resulted in an Earnings ESP of -1.33%.
When combined with a Zacks Rank of #3 (Hold), this Earnings ESP makes it difficult to conclusively predict that J.Jill will beat the consensus EPS estimate. The company beat consensus EPS estimates in each of the trailing four quarters.

Shares of specialty retail companies are trading higher following recent CPI data.

Genesco Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GCO#NYSE">GCO</a>) shares are trading higher after the company reported <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/05/b39107478/genesco-inc-reports-fiscal-2025-first-quarter-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">better-than-expected first-quarter FY25 earnings.</a>
The company reported a first-quarter sales decline of 5.3% year-on-year to $457.60 million, beating the analyst&#8217;s consensus estimate of $445.05 million.
The sales decrease was driven by a decline in store sales, decreased wholesale sales and the impact of net store closings. Total comparable sales declined 5%.
Comparable e-commerce sales increased 3%; comparable store sales decreased 7%. E-commerce sales represented 23% of retail sales compared to 21% last year.
Overall sales dropped 5% at Journeys, slipped 1% at Schuh,&nbsp; 4% at Johnston &amp; Murphy, and decreased 25% at Genesco Brands.
Adjusted EPS of $(2.10) <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">beat the analyst consensus estimate of $(2.66)</a>.
Gross margin remained flat at 47.3%. The operating loss for the quarter was $(32.1) million compared to a loss of $(22.9) million a year ago.
The company held $19.2 million in cash and equivalents as of May 4. Inventories decreased 17% a year-over-year basis.
During the quarter, the company opened one store and closed 21 stores. The company ended the quarter with 1,321 stores compared with 1,396 stores last year.
&#8220;Against continued headwinds in the operating environment, we executed to our strategic plan to deliver top and bottom-line results that were ahead of our expectations, led by our Journeys business,&#8221; said Board Chair, President and CEO Mimi E. Vaughn.
Outlook Reaffirmed: Genesco sees fiscal 2025 adjusted EPS of $0.60 – $1.00, against a consensus of $0.64.&nbsp;
The company expects fiscal 2025 total sales to decrease 2% to 3% compared to fiscal 2024, or down 1% to 2% excluding the 53rd week in fiscal 2024.
Price Action: GCO shares are trading higher by 14.9% at $31.36 at the last check Friday.

Why Branded Footwear Retailer Genesco's Shares Are Shooting Higher Today

Stocks look set to end May on a positive note, even as index futures pointed to a negative opening on Friday. But sentiment could reverse if <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/economics/macro-economic-events/24/05/39096164/feds-favorite-inflation-data-due-friday-how-could-markets-react-to-surprises" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">important inflation data due ahead of the market open appeases Wall Street.</a> The inflation data assumes importance as it could have a bearing on the June 11-12 Federal Reserve&#8217;s rate-setting meeting, with the May consumer price inflation report due only on May 12. Reactions to earnings, especially from the tech and retail spaces, have been mixed.

Cues From Previous Session
Wall Street ended lower on Thursday as traders expressed disappointment over weak economic data and weak earnings reports. The preliminary first-quarter GDP report showed a downward revision to the advance estimate from 1.6% to 1.3% and pending home sales fell sharply in April. Although the weak data sent bond yields lower for the first time in four sessions, traders fretted over a potential hard landing due to the lagged impact of the aggressive rate hikes.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average fell for a third straight session and ended at the lowest since May 1, while the S&amp;P 500 Index and the Nasdaq Composite Index extended their losing streak to two, with the former settling at the lowest level since May 13. On the other hand, small-cap stocks climbed strongly.
Communication services and IT stocks fell sharply, while most other S&amp;P 500 sector classes advanced, led by defensive real estate and utility stocks.

Insights From Analysts:
The S&amp;P 500 Index is up about 4% so far this May, and LPL Chief Technical Strategist Adam Turnquist said April&#8217;s 4.2% has been pared because of the rebound seen this month. The strategist, however, is not positive about the near term. &#8220;Peaking ahead to June, seasonality trends are hardly anything to get excited about. Since 1950, the S&amp;P 500 has generated an average and median price return in June of 0.1%, with 55% of months posting positive results,&#8221; he said.
For the remainder of the year, the S&amp;P 500 posted average and median gains of 4.9% and 6.4%, respectively. Following a positive May, the average and median gains bump up to 5.4% and 6.8%, Turnquist said.
Upcoming Economic Data:
<ul>
<li>The Bureau of Economic Analysis is scheduled to release the personal income and spending report at 8:30 a.m. EDT. Economists, on average, expect personal income and spending to increase at a month-over-month rate of 0.3% and 0.4%, respectively, in April. In March, the rates were at 0.5% and 0.8%. The Fed&#8217;s favorite inflation gauge &#8211; the core personal price consumption expenditure index may have increased by 0.2% and 2.8%, respectively. This compares to March increases of 0.3% and 2.8%, respectively. The consensus estimate for the month-over-month and year-over-year rates for the headline PCE index are 0.3% and 2.7%.</li>
<li>The Chicago-ISM will release the results of its regional manufacturing survey at 8:45 a.m. EDT. The Chicago business barometer may have improved from 37.9 in April to 40.8 in May. The reading, despite showing an improvement, suggests the sector is still in contraction territory.</li>

Excluding the 14th week, sales would have decreased 2% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2024. Total comparable sales declined 4%.
Overall sales dropped 2% at Journeys, grew 6% at Schuh, up 9% at Johnston &amp; Murphy, and increased 24% at Genesco Brands.
Adjusted EPS of $2.59&nbsp;<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missed the analyst consensus of $3.04.</a>

The company closed 94 Journeys stores in fiscal 2024 and targets up to 50 more closures in fiscal 2025.
