On Tuesday, the news thundered, which surprised everyone, who has at least something to do with Wall Street. Dollar Tree stocks are falling.
At the moment, shares have fallen by 13%, which is an unprecedented loss for the company. Forecasts for the near future are the most disappointing. Nevertheless, the level of the falling is kept at the indicated level, which gives hope for an improvement of the situation, but will this hope be justified?
Today you can buy a share of this company for $1.08, which is a very low price. It was expected that in the same period, the value of the share will be at least $1.13. But the forecast wasn’t destined to come true.
An interesting fact is that both company networks (Dollar Tree and Family Dollar) increased sales by as much as 2%. But despite the joyful indicator, the situation is not so unambiguous, because in Family Dollar the margin fell. The products of these networks have some differences. For example, Family Dollar also sells goods at lower prices, which accounts for a significant share of the presented products. But be that as it may, the total net income decreased by 1.7% year on year, which makes us think.
Despite the fact that Dollar Trey isn’t so lucky this period, the revenue amounted to approximately $5.74 billion. At the same time, the expected revenue at better indicators should have amounted to $5.75 billion, which in fact isn’t such a big difference.
Recently, distribution costs have increased. Following the direct, obvious logic, we can understand that it was the increase in transportation prices that caused an increase in prices for goods. For the same reason, sales of goods that have lower margins have increased in order to patch up financial holes in other areas.
There have also been personnel shifts. The staff has been reduced, which isn’t a good sign. The company is forced to take drastic measures to stay in difficult times. However, in order to minimize financial losses and quickly return to the previous level, the company has everything that is needed.
But if we look at the Dollar Tree and its successes over the past year, then we will see that the company is developing quite rapidly. This year its shares rose 24%. There is a pretty good result. But how did they do it? The secret is very simple.
Dollar Tree investors supported all sorts of aggressive steps by the company, in order to maintain and increase the profit of the Family Dollar. Surprisingly, the aggressive strategy worked more than successfully, thanks to which we can observe tremendous growth in the company's shares. Some shops had to be closed, and some were rebranded, which benefited them. How did it happen? It attracted new customers and formed a new circle of interests that led to an increase in profits.
At the end of this quartile, the company has more than 7.800 locations. This number does not allow full rebranding, but the process is already running. The first steps definitely brought excellent results, so the company further plans to adhere to this strategy, hoping for improvements in its own position. And the company has every chance to achieve its goal, despite the recent fall in stocks, which was also caused by the aggressive policy of the company.
Surprisingly, the same strategy, under different circumstances, can lead to different results. It’s important to remember this when working on your own strategy. Nevertheless, it’s very difficult to predict the exact outcome in the modern market with its wars, because sometimes the income depends on factors that can hardly be predicted, so every businessman needs to be extremely vigilant. But all of us know that sometimes it’s impossible.
A quarterly forecast from the company has recently been released. This forecast can be called very optimistic because an increase in the value of the share is expected from $1.70 to $1.80. And yet, Wall Street had expected stock prices to be significantly higher. According to their forecasts, the share price should be $2.02. As it turns out, it will become known very soon, and therefore you just need to be patient and wait for the opportunity, because the current situation was very ambiguous, which means it is too early to draw conclusions.
And yet, in the fourth quarter of this year, an increase in the value of goods sold by $19 million is expected, which equals $0.06 per share.
And yet the main event happened today at 8:46 a.m. at the premarket. It was at this moment that the shares of the company fell by 13%.
Will the company continue to pursue the aggression strategy and will it help overcome difficulties? Will it continue to fall, and can one find profit in this fall? It’ll become obvious for most businessmen very soon. But while all this is only in the process, the most astute take risks and win, while others read about how others have achieved success.
