\n

After an 8% decline over the last six months, at the current price of around $75 per share, we believe Best Buy\u2019s stock <\/strong>(NYSE: BBY), an electronics specialty retailer – is fairly priced. BBY stock has declined from $82 to $75 in the last six months, underperforming the broader indices, with the S&P growing about 9% over the same period. Several big factors hurt the consumer electronics retailing niche, including rampant inflation and supply chain disruptions. A tough comparison with the pandemic and stimulus-induced growth over the past two years, as well as inflationary headwinds contributed to the slowdown.<\/p>\n

In the recent Q1, the electronics retailer posted $1.15 (down 27% year-over-year) in adjusted EPS, exceeding the $1.10 consensus, and $9.47 billion in revenue (down 11% y-o-y), missing the analyst expectation by $60 million. The retailer saw a 10.1% decline in comparable sales from the prior year. The largest drivers of the comparable sales decline on a weighted basis were computing, appliances, home theater, and mobile phones. Those drivers were partially offset by growth in the gaming and services categories. Best Buy
\n BBY
\n <\/fbs-ticker> was forced to rely more on discounts and other promotions to drive sales, which weighed on its profitability. Its gross margin improved to 22.6%, up 70 basis points, but its operating margin fell to 3.4% from 4.6% in the prior-year quarter.<\/p>\n

We forecast Best Buy\u2019s Revenues<\/strong> to be $44.4 billion for the full year 2024 (year ending Jan 2024), down 4% y-o-y. Looking at the bottom line, we now forecast adjusted EPS at $6.08. Given the changes to our revenues and earnings forecast, we have revised our Best Buy\u2019s Valuation<\/strong> to $79 per share, based on $6.08 expected EPS and a 12.9x P\/E multiple for fiscal 2024 – almost 5% higher than the current market price.<\/p>\n

BBY expects full-year revenue in the range of $43.8 billion to $45.2 billion. Its enterprise comps growth is expected to decline in the range of 3% to 6%. Also, the company forecasts its operating income rate to range between 3.7% to 4.1% for the full year. Additionally, its non-GAAP diluted EPS is expected to come in the range of $5.70 to $6.50 compared to the consensus of $6.20. In the fiscal Q2, BBY expects its comparable sales to decline in the range of 6% to 8% and the non-GAAP operating income rate to be approximately 3% or slightly higher.<\/p>\n
