Jim Cramer - Mad Money RH RH-N DON'T BUY Jun 14, 2024

They report Thursday. Likes them, but they've been issuing disappointing numbers and their accounting issues don't inspire confidence.

High quality company with excellent management team.
Hit peak revenue during Covid-19 pandemic.
Current share price presenting buying opportunity.
Expecting revenue & margins to grow.
A good long term investment over 5-10 years.

The market made a mistake in selling it after a downbeat conference call, because RH bought back 17% of shares in just this quarter (23% so far this year). This is one of the biggest single-quarter buybacks he ever heard of. Buybacks shrink EPS, remember, and shows confidence from management

Demand was up 10% in July and 12% in August. Sure, you may not want to buy a stock that jumped 25% in one day, but anything related to housing (and falling interest rates) is doing well. He expects a housing boom.

Has doubled since last June's lows, but weirdly without a fundamental change in its business, like a beat and raise quarter, just some raised guidance. The CEO did buy a lot of shares last June.

It reports Wednesday. It's a retail stock, a tough sector. It's fallen with the sector. Wait for the bounce, but in this market it feels like a bet and not an investment.
