Chewy, Inc. (CHWY) is experiencing a notable comeback after a post-Covid slump, with impressive financial results reported recently. Despite a temporary share decline following a strong revenue and adjusted EBITDA beat and an optimistic full-year forecast, the company has demonstrated solid growth metrics, including an active membership base of 20.2 million and record spending per active customer at $567.50. Analysts have reacted positively, notably increasing Chewy's price target. The introduction of Chewy Vet Care clinics is strategically aimed at attracting the tech-savvy younger generation of pet owners, thereby enhancing customer engagement and expanding revenue streams. Furthermore, the company's commitment to share buybacks and successful navigation against formidable competitors like Amazon spotlight its resilience in the pet care sector.
Once a dog, this American pet food maker is a comeback after reporting Q1 results. Shares jumped 30% after the company reported earnings per share (EPS) of US$0.15, which blew away street estimates by 291%. Meanwhile, revenues of US$2.9 billion (all USD)were in line. Net income more than tripled from a year ago to $67.3 million, or $0.15 per share while gross margins climbed 130 basis points to 29.7% and net margins increased 150 basis points to 2.3%. Growth has moderated, but profits are now consistent and growing. Analysts were impressed enough to raise Chewy's price target rose by 8.4% to US$25.12. So, how did the company beat the post-Covid slump? One step was recently opening Chewy Vet Care clinics, targeting younger, tech-savvy pet owners, who can see their pet's medical information displayed on interactive screens in the exam room but also access that data on their portable devices. This cohort of Millennials and GenZ'ers make up 46% of pet owners in the U.S., so penetrating this market through the clinics is a savvy move.
It's a comeback story after sliding post-Covid. Shares jumped 27% this week after reporting. They introduced pet care clinics that helps bring down pet care costs. They execute well. Gross margins have expanded. They announced a $500 million buyback and are succeeding in the face of Amazon.
Is astonished these shares have fallen so far, because so many use their products, but the entire pet sector is in the doghouse.
They need to make profits. They don't make money.
