What Happened?
Shares of furniture company Lovesac (NASDAQ:LOVE) jumped 20.8% in the afternoon session after the company reported fourth-quarter financial results that beat analyst expectations on the top and bottom lines.
For the quarter, revenue grew 2.7% year-on-year to $248 million, surpassing Wall Street's forecasts. The company also posted a GAAP profit of $2.19 per share, beating consensus estimates. However, the results were mixed as the company's revenue guidance for the upcoming quarter and its full-year earnings forecast both fell short of expectations. Despite the soft outlook, the stock's positive reaction suggests investors focused on the reported quarter's performance, likely sparking a relief rally as market expectations were low heading into the announcement.
The shares closed the day at $13.78, up 24.4% from previous close.
