Williams-Sonoma (WSM) had strong fiscal Q4 results, but its operating margin outlook was "disappointing" because of tariff headwinds, Wedbush said in a note Thursday.
The company's fiscal Q4 revenue was better than expected as it recognized improving furniture trends, and its gross margins of 47.3% improved 130 basis points year over year, Wedbush analysts said.
The company's operating margin guidance came in lower than expected at 17.4% to 17.8%, compared with the consensus of 18.1%, and reflected the higher costs from all currently announced tariffs.
The analysts noted that although Williams-Sonoma acknowledged that its fiscal Q1 was not trending as strongly as the previous quarter, the company did not copy other retailers in announcing a broad-based slowdown for the period.
Wedbush lowered its target price for the company to $170 from $190 and reiterated the rating at neutral.
