RH, formerly known as Restoration Hardware, has seen its stock price double since last June, primarily due to raised guidance rather than significant improvements in business performance. While consumer demand showed positive signs with increases of 10% and 12% in July and August respectively, concerns persist regarding the company's recent disappointing earnings, which led to a notable 17% stock drop on the latest report. The CEO's aggressive expansion into luxurious experiences, including spas and hotels, seems to have strained the company financially, especially as its core luxury furnishings business struggles. Additionally, there are doubts about whether decreasing interest rates will be sufficient to revitalize RH's performance given the damage done by rising rates and tightening housing markets. The ongoing spending amidst dwindling outlook raises questions about the company's vision and future strategies.

RISKY

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.

BUY

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.

BUY
After its post-earnings surge

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.

DON'T BUY

They keep posting disappointing numbers and after the latest, the stock dropped 17% today. Is the CEO a visionary or driving RH to ruin? Pre-2021, RH was a juggernaut as they build luxurious stores including dining around the world at their stores. Also, they're moving into real estates, including spas and hotels. They're spending a fortune to build luxurious experiences. But their core business of luxury furnishings is struggling. They've borrowed money to fund this expansion, however, they spent a big chunk of that money to buyback shares just as interest rates rose and the housing market tightened. Can rates fall fast enough to save RH? Doesn't think so. The outlook is dwindling, but the CEO keeps spending.

BUY

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

BUY

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.


DON'T BUY

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

BUY
Likes it as it trades at 10x earnings.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 24/22, Down 39%) High-end, and thought they could hide here amidst the luxury consumer. But when the market goes down, everything goes down. High-margin business. Will bounce back on the other side.
TOP PICK
Not affected by rising rates since the average buyer (wealthy) is not affected by rising rates. Very good time to buy since it has dropped quite a bit. He has just added to it. Should do well going forward. Analysts have 12 buys, 7 holds, 0 sells.
BUY
The home office is here to stay It had a monster quarter, but down so much since then. Similar to WSM. He expects this to roar back to ride the work-from-home trend.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
A good CEO, who has a long-term view. They report Wednesday. A bad report always triggers a sell-off, but also a buy signal.
BUY
Delivered a blow-out quarter last Wednesday. Sales are up 40% since 2019. A monster earnings beat and they raised their full-year forecast despite supply problems. They want to be a luxury lifestyle brand now. Shares are up 1,800% in the past 5 years, but has more room to run.
WATCH
They just announced a strong beat. They announced a strategy shift where they will introduce new product lines, not just contemporary, like RH Yachts and RH Jets. This seems broad to her. She's skeptical when companies go into different lines and for RH, these new lines are a little outside their core competency. However, they have been executing on so many fronts, so she's impressed with the managers. Maybe they're spreading themselves too thin. Certainly, this is worth watching.
BUY
The new lines they just introduced, like RH Yachts, are a bit of a stretch, but he'll give them the benefit of the doubt. Along with William Sonoma, among US retailers that come up in discussion is RH for good reason. Shares topped in April and have been sideways ever since. The stock could be cheaper now than before earnings. He bets the stock will crack $740, its all-time high, and go higher.
