My grandfather owned a La-Z-Boy (LZB), and yours probably did too. But there’s nothing old-fashioned about its stock’s performance today following its earnings release. Going up never goes out of style.
AFPMarketWatch has the details on La-Z-Boy’s results:
For the quarter ended Oct. 26, La-Z-Boy posted a profit of $16.7 million, or 31 cents a share, up from $6.6 million, or 12 cents a share, a year earlier. The latest results included a reduction of some valuation reserves worth a penny a share, while prior-year results had three cents in restructuring charges.
Sales climbed 14% to $366.4 million.
Analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters expected a per-share profit of 26 cents on $349 million in revenue.
Raymond James analysts Budd Bugatch and Justin Santa Cruz really like what they see. Really, really, really.
