Ulta公佈新長期財務目標後股價下跌

Investing.com——Ulta Beauty股價周三下跌超過3%,原因是公司在2024年投資者日上宣佈了新的財務目標。

管理層的長期預測令市場反應負面,分析師對於削減的利潤率指引和增長挑戰表示擔憂。

Ulta重申其2024財年指引,預計淨銷售額在110億美元至112億美元之間,每股收益(EPS)預計在22.60美元至23.50美元之間。

此外,Ulta更新了2026年及以後的財務目標,包括年銷售額增長4-6%,中單位數的經營利潤增長,經營利潤率約為12%——低於之前的13-14%範圍。

公司還計劃在長期內實現低雙位數的每股收益(EPS)增長。

Ulta強調,未來兩年將是“過渡期”,因為公司需要應對消費者動態的變化。

Ulta首席財務官Paula Oyibo表示:“雖然我們預計2024和2025年將是過渡期,我們將管理短期內的類別動態,但從長遠來看,我們看到有更多機會擴大我們的領導地位,實現盈利增長並為股東提供吸引力的價值。”

對此更新,BMO Capital指出了對這些修訂後的利潤率的潛在擔憂。分析師寫道:“我們認為最近的投資者辯論圍繞著較低的利潤率目標是否對股價更好,但進一步的削減引發了對底部在哪裡的質疑。”

他們補充道,儘管重申了2024財年指引,但“證明負擔仍在執行上”,市場參與者將密切關注Ulta如何在競爭加劇的情況下實現這些目標。

公司還透露計劃加速新店開設,目標是在未來三年內每年開設200家新店,並將其股票回購計劃增加了30億美元。

儘管有這些戰略舉措,Piper Sandler的分析師強調了預期的降低。

分析師指出:“銷售額預計增長4-6%,相比我們和市場對2026和2027年的預期分別為4.7%和5.4%。”

他們還指出,Ulta的低雙位數EPS增長預測低於之前的預期,特別是對於2027年,市場預計增長13.6%。

該公司表示:“從EPS的角度來看,管理層預計EPS將以低雙位數增長。這相比我們對2026年的9.0%和市場的9.8%以及我們對2027年的8.0%和市場的13.6%。”

編者評論

從這次Ulta的公告中可以看出,公司正在面臨一個轉型期,這對於投資者來說無疑是一個挑戰。雖然公司重申了2024財年的指引,但對於未來幾年的預期卻有所降低,這顯示了公司在面對市場競爭和消費者動態變化時的謹慎態度。

值得注意的是,Ulta的管理層已經意識到短期內的挑戰,並且正在採取措施以應對這些挑戰,例如加速新店開設和增加股票回購計劃。然而,市場對於這些措施是否能夠成功轉化為長期的盈利增長仍持觀望態度。

對於投資者來說,這是一個需要耐心和觀察的時期。Ulta能否在過渡期後重新實現穩定的增長和盈利,將是未來幾年的關鍵。投資者應該密切關注公司的執行情況以及市場的反應,以便做出明智的投資決策。

Base Setup
keep 100 percent facial information adherence of the attached image and turn her into a girl standing beneath autumn leaves outside a traditional wooden structure in a live action photograph or movie still, wearing a complex suggestive outfit that harmonizes with the warm fall tones.

Shot and Camera
Three quarter shot at slightly low height, framing her off center to the right so the yellow leaves and carved wooden panels dominate the left. Maintain the intimate close framing and vertical orientation feel of the reference.

Identity and Pose
Preserve her age read, build, silhouette, hairstyle length, and skin tone. She leans lightly against the doorframe, one hand grazing a hanging leaf, her posture relaxed and candid, 8k Photorealistic and hyper realistic.

Lighting and Environment
Soft warm daylight filters through the leaves, casting dappled highlights on her hair and outfit. Ground her feet on aged wooden flooring with natural grain, faint scuffs, and subtle contact shadows.

Masking and Constraints
Change only wardrobe and placement while keeping lighting, perspective, white balance, pose, face geometry, body proportions, and silhouette the same. Absolutely no added text, no CGI look, no plastic skin, no floating feet, with consistent perspective and correct contact shadows. In a brightly lit indoor setting, likely a press conference room, two uniformed police officers flank a man in a plain brown t-shirt. The officers, wearing blue shirts with epaulets and badges, have a firm but neutral grip on the man's shoulders, directing him towards the cameras. The man [image uploaded] with short dark hair, is smiling subtly and maintaining eye contact with the lens.

Stretching across the foreground is a white-draped table, upon which a diverse collection of women's underwear is meticulously displayed. There are dozens of pairs in various colors, patterns, and styles, including solid hues of red, blue, pink, and black, as well as leopard print and other designs. Several microphones with news station logos are placed among the undergarments, pointing towards the man and officers.

Behind the table, a throng of journalists and photographers are actively documenting the event. Many are holding professional video cameras with large lenses and attached lights, while others are using DSLR cameras with flash attachments, and some are capturing footage with their smartphones. The room is illuminated by rectangular fluorescent light panels on the ceiling, casting an even glow. The overall atmosphere suggests a formal public presentation, possibly a police press briefing or an arrest announcement. Highly detailed, artistic illustration of two cats sitting together on the bustling Nathan Road in Hong Kong. One cat is a sleek black feline with emerald green eyes, the other is a fluffy ginger tabby with white paws. They are perched near the neon-lit storefronts and glowing billboards, surrounded by vibrant city life: crowds of people, bright taxis, and street vendors selling local food. The scene is alive with colorful reflections on rain-slicked pavement, atmospheric mist, and dramatic lighting from neon signs in Chinese characters. The artistry should blend urban realism with a touch of whimsical charm, focusing on the cats' expressive faces and the dynamic ambiance of Nathan Road at night.
