Quarterly sales of $1.780 billion, down 11% year-over-year, missed the analyst consensus of $1.820 billion.
The decrease in reported sales is largely related to lower sales in its Office Depot Division, primarily due to 53 fewer retail locations in service compared to the previous year and reduced transactions, as well as lower sales in its ODP Business Solutions Division.
&#8220;We&#8217;re leveraging our differentiated core strengths to pivot towards higher growth B2B opportunities, and we are beginning to see promising traction at both our ODP Business Solutions and Veyer Divisions,&#8221; said Gerry Smith, chief executive officer.&nbsp;

Top 3 Consumer Stocks That Could Blast Off This Month

UBS Maintains Neutral on ODP, Lowers Price Target to $30

The ODP Corporation (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ODP#NASDAQ">ODP</a>) shares are trading lower on Wednesday after the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/24/08/b40215029/the-odp-corporation-announces-second-quarter-2024-results" rel="noreferrer noopener">company reported second-quarter results.</a>
The company reported adjusted earnings per share of 56 cents, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">missing the analyst consensus of $1.20.</a>
Total reported sales reached $1.717 billion, a 10% decrease year over year. Sales missed the street view of $1.762 billion.
This decline is mainly due to reduced sales in the Office Depot Division, which had 58 fewer retail locations and fewer transactions than the previous year, along with lower ODP Business Solutions Division sales.
Adjusted operating income was $33 million, down from $67 million in the&nbsp;second quarter&nbsp;of 2023.
&#8220;While we are pacing below our prior expectations for the year, we are not standing still. We&#8217;re taking actions to improve our top-line trajectory and we remain focused on capturing the long-term opportunities derived by our strong value proposition, solid balance sheet, and flexible foundation,&#8221; said Gerry Smith, chief executive officer of ODP.
&#8220;We have several prospects at both ODP Business Solutions and Veyer that we expect to close in the second half that will boost revenue growth velocity as we exit this year,&#8221; Smith&nbsp;added.

The company registered adjusted EBITDA of $57 million, compared to $95 million in the year-ago period.
Total available liquidity was $831 million, including $190 million in cash and cash equivalents, with $10 million classified under current assets held for sale from the Varis Division at quarter-end.
&#8220;In addition to our efforts under Project Core, which we expect will create over $100 million in annual cost savings when fully implemented, we are executing on initiatives to accelerate sales pipeline conversion, drive additional avenues for growth with existing customers, and leverage our deep customer relationships to solve more of their procurement challenges,&#8221; Smith added.
Outlook: ODP has revised its FY24 outlook, lowering the adjusted EPS forecast to $4.25-$5.00 from $6.30-$6.60, below the $6.37 estimate, and reducing the revenue forecast to at least $7 billion from $7.44 billion, <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">compared to the $7.39 billion estimate.</a>
Price Action: ODP shares are trading lower by 33.8% to $25.11 at last check Wednesday.

Office Depot Parent ODP Slashes FY24 Guidance Amid 10% Sales Drop - Stock Slumps

ODP shares are trading lower after the company reported worse-than-expected Q2 financial results and cut its FY24 guidance.

2024 Guidance
&quot;Our performance in the first half of the year was clearly below expectations, placing us behind our goals for the year,&quot; said Smith. &quot;The initiatives we are taking to improve our top-line trajectory, along with our low-cost model, high touch service approach, and strong value proposition, give us confidence in our ability to improve our performance and position us for greater stability and growth in the future. Considering our slow start to the first half of the year, as well as the uncertain macroeconomic environment and the potential variability of the timing of our initiatives, we are updating our 2024 guidance as follows&quot;:

When evaluating a company&#39;s value, investors mostly look at a stock&#39;s price-to-earnings (P/E) or price-to-sales (P/S) ratio. While P/E is the ratio of annual earnings to stock price, P/S reflects the amount investors pay for each dollar of revenues generated by the company.
Though P/E and P/S valuation tools are more commonly used for stock selection, the price-to-book ratio (P/B ratio) is also an easy-to-use metric for identifying low-priced stocks with high-growth prospects.
&nbsp;P/B is the ratio of stock price to book value
It is calculated as below:
P/B ratio = market capitalization/book value of equity
The P/B ratio helps to identify low-priced stocks with high growth prospects. ASE Technology (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/asx#NYSE">ASX</a>), Paysafe Limited (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/psfe#NYSE">PSFE</a>), The ODP Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/odp#NASDAQ">ODP</a>), Deluxe (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dlx#NYSE">DLX</a>) and KB Home (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/kbh#NYSE">KBH</a>) are some such stocks.
Now, let us understand the concept of book value.
<h3>What is Book Value?</h3>
There are several ways by which book value can be defined.&nbsp;Book value is the total value that would be left over, according to the company&#39;s balance sheet, if it goes bankrupt immediately. In other words, this is what shareholders would theoretically receive if a company liquidates all its assets after paying off all its liabilities.
It is calculated by subtracting total liabilities from the total assets of a company. In most cases, this equates to common stockholders&#39; equity on the balance sheet. However, depending on the company&#39;s balance sheet, intangible assets should also be subtracted from the total assets to determine book value.
<h3>Understanding P/B Ratio</h3>
By comparing the book value of equity to its market price, we get an idea of whether a company is under or overpriced. However, like P/E or P/S ratio, it is always better to compare P/B ratios within industries.
A P/B ratio of less than one means that the stock is trading at less than its book value or the stock is undervalued and, therefore, a good buy. Conversely, a stock with a ratio greater than one can be interpreted as being overvalued or relatively expensive.
For example, a stock with a P/B ratio of 2 means that we pay $2 for every $1 of book value. Thus, the higher the P/B, the more expensive the stock.
But there is a warning. A P/B ratio of less than one can also mean that the company is earning weak or even negative returns on its assets or that the assets are overstated, in which case the stock should be shunned because it may be destroying shareholder value. Conversely, the stock&#39;s price may be significantly high &mdash; thereby pushing the P/B ratio to more than one &mdash; in the likely case that it has become a takeover target, a good enough reason to own the stock.
Moreover, the P/B ratio is not without limitations. It is useful for businesses like finance, investments, insurance and banking or manufacturing companies with many liquid/tangible assets on the books. However, it can be misleading for firms with significant R&amp;D expenditure, high debt, service companies, or those with negative earnings.
In any case, the ratio is not particularly relevant as a standalone number. One should analyze other ratios like P/E, P/S and debt to equity before arriving at a reasonable investment decision.
<h3>Screening Parameters</h3>
Price to Book (common Equity) less than X-Industry Median: A lower P/B compared with the industry average implies that there is enough room for the stock to gain.
Price to Sales less than X-Industry Median: The P/S ratio determines how much the market values every dollar of the company&#39;s sales/revenues &mdash; a lower ratio than the industry makes the stock attractive.
Price to Earnings using F(1) estimate less than X-Industry Median: The P/E ratio (F1) values a company based on its current share price relative to its estimated earnings per share &mdash; a lower ratio than the industry is considered better.
PEG less than 1: PEG links the P/E ratio to the future growth rate of the company. The PEG ratio portrays a more complete picture than the P/E ratio. A value of less than 1 indicates that the stock is undervalued and investors need to pay less for a stock that has bright earnings growth prospects.
Current Price greater than or equal to $5: They must all be trading at a minimum of $5 or higher.
Average 20-Day Volume greater than or equal to 100,000: A substantial trading volume ensures that the stock is easily tradable.
Zacks Rank less than or equal to #2: Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) stocks are known to outperform irrespective of the market environment.
Value Score equal to A or B: Our research shows that stocks with a Value Score of A or B when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 or 2, offer the best opportunities in the value investing space.
Here are five of the nine stocks that qualified the screening:&nbsp;

5 Low Price-to-Book Stocks Worth Buying in July

Investors generally tend to cling to the price-to-earnings (P/E) metric while looking for bargain stocks. In addition to being a widely used tool for screening stocks, P/E is also a popular metric to work out the fair market value of a company. But even this ubiquitously used valuation multiple has a few limitations. 
Although P/E is by far the most popular equity valuation ratio, a more complicated metric called EV/EBITDA does a better job of valuing a firm. Often viewed as a better substitute to P/E, this ratio offers a clearer picture of a company&#39;s valuation and its earnings potential. 
Navios Maritime Partners L.P. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/nmm#NYSE">NMM</a>), Costamare Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/cmre#NYSE">CMRE</a>), The ODP Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/odp#NASDAQ">ODP</a>), ADT Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/adt#NYSE">ADT</a>) and Portland General Electric Company (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/por#NYSE">POR</a>) are some stocks with impressive EV-to-EBITDA ratios.
<h3>Is EV-to-EBITDA a Better Substitute to P/E?</h3>
EV-to-EBITDA is essentially the enterprise value of a stock divided by its earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (EBITDA). EV is the sum of a company&#39;s market capitalization, its debt and preferred stock minus cash and cash equivalents. 
EBITDA, the other component of the multiple, gives a better idea of a company&#39;s profitability as it removes the impact of non-cash expenses like depreciation and amortization that reduce net earnings. It is also often used as a proxy for cash flows. 
Just like P/E, the lower the EV-to-EBITDA ratio, the more attractive it is. A low EV-to-EBITDA ratio could signal that a stock is potentially undervalued. 
EV-to-EBITDA takes into account the debt on a company&#39;s balance sheet that the P/E ratio does not. Due to this reason, EV-to-EBITDA is generally used to value the potential acquisition targets as it shows the amount of debt the acquirer has to assume. Stocks boasting a low EV-to-EBITDA multiple could be seen as attractive takeover candidates. 
Another shortcoming of P/E is that it can&#39;t be used to value a loss-making firm. A company&#39;s earnings are also subject to accounting estimates and management manipulation. On the other hand, EV-to-EBITDA is difficult to manipulate and can also be used to value loss-making but EBITDA-positive companies. 
EV-to-EBITDA is also a useful tool in measuring the value of firms that are highly leveraged and have a high degree of depreciation. Moreover, it can be used to compare companies with different levels of debt. 
However, EV-to-EBITDA is not devoid of shortcomings and alone cannot conclusively determine a stock&#39;s inherent potential and future performance. The multiple varies across industries and is usually not appropriate while comparing stocks in different industries, given their diverse capital expenditure requirements. 
A strategy solely based on EV-to-EBITDA might not yield the desired results. However, you can club it with the other major ratios in your stock-investing toolbox, such as price-to-book (P/B), P/E and price-to-sales (P/S) to screen value stocks.
<h3>Screening Criteria</h3>
Here are the parameters to screen for value stocks: 
EV-to-EBITDA 12 Months-Most Recent less than X-Industry Median: A lower EV-to-EBITDA ratio represents a cheaper valuation. 
P/E using (F1) less than X-Industry Median: This metric screens stocks that are trading at a discount to their peers. 
P/B less than X-Industry Median: A lower P/B compared with the industry average implies that the stock is undervalued. 
P/S less than X-Industry Median: The lower the P/S ratio, the more attractive the stock is, as investors will have to pay a smaller price for the same amount of sales generated by the company. 
Estimated One-Year EPS Growth F(1)/F(0) greater than or equal to X-Industry Median: This parameter will help in screening stocks that have growth rates higher than the industry median. 
Average 20-day Volume greater than or equal to 100,000: The addition of this metric ensures that shares can be traded easily. 
Current Price greater than or equal to $5: This parameter will help in screening stocks that are trading at a minimum price of $5 or higher. 
Zacks Rank less than or equal to 2: It is a fundamental truth that stocks with a Zacks Rank #1 (Strong Buy) or 2 (Buy) have always managed to beat adversities and outperform the market. 
Value Score of less than or equal to B: Our research shows that stocks with a Value Score of A or B, when combined with a Zacks Rank #1 or 2, offer the best upside potential.
