Why Are Sportsman's Warehouse (SPWH) Shares Soaring Today

Shares of outdoor specialty retailer Sportsman's Warehouse (NASDAQ:SPWH) jumped 109% in the morning session after the company reported impressive fourth quarter 2024 results, which blew past analysts' revenue, EPS, and EBITDA expectations. The key highlight was the turnaround in same-store sales, which were essentially flat, a sharp recovery from the nearly 13% drop in the same quarter last year. The financial outlook was also encouraging as its full-year EBITDA guidance outperformed Wall Street's estimates. The broader retail environment remained challenging, but the company's focus on local and seasonal demand and a leaner inventory should provide a cushion. Zooming out, we think this quarter featured some important positives. The shares closed the day at $1.91, up 97.9% from previous close. Is now the time to buy Sportsman's Warehouse? Access our full analysis report here, it's free. Sportsman's Warehouse's shares are extremely volatile and have had 71 moves greater than 5% over the last year. But moves this big are rare even for Sportsman's Warehouse and indicate this news significantly impacted the market's perception of the business. The biggest move we wrote about over the last year was 4 months ago when the stock gained 29.4% on the news that the company reported a "beat and raise" quarter (Q3 2024). SPWH blew past analysts' revenue, EPS, and EBITDA expectations. For the full year, its revenue and EBITDA projections exceeded Wall Street's forecasts. These results stood out given management's acknowledgment of challenges, including rising prices, reducing shoppers' spending power, fewer store visits, and weaker demand across most product lines. Despite these challenges, the company found bright spots in fishing gear, camping equipment, and optics and accessories, which helped offset the broader declines. Zooming out, we think this was a solid "beat-and-raise" quarter. Sportsman's Warehouse is down 29.6% since the beginning of the year, and at $1.78 per share, it is trading 57.4% below its 52-week high of $4.18 from June 2024. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Sportsman's Warehouse's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $309.35. Unless you've been living under a rock, it should be obvious by now that generative AI is going to have a huge impact on how large corporations do business. While Nvidia and AMD are trading close to all-time highs, we prefer a lesser-known (but still profitable) semiconductor stock benefiting from the rise of AI.

The company successfully reduced its net debt by $27 million and ended the year with a liquidity of $131 million, an increase of $40 million compared to the previous year.

The company outperformed the adjusted NICS data in firearms sales, indicating a strong market position despite industry challenges. Fishing and camping departments saw growth, with fishing sales up by double digits, demonstrating effective inventory management and seasonal readiness. Q4 net sales declined by 0.9% compared to the same period last year, reflecting ongoing challenges in the retail environment. The company experienced a trade-down in firearms, with consumers opting for lower-priced options, which pressured sales dollars despite increased unit sales. Footwear and apparel categories faced declines, attributed to tough comparisons from the prior year's clearance events. SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased to 29.4% from 29% in the previous year, indicating higher operational costs. The company reported a net loss of $8.7 million for Q4, consistent with the previous year, due to a $10.1 million valuation allowance related to deferred tax assets. Q: How have sales trends been in February and March, particularly in firearms and ammunition? A: Jeff White, CFO, noted that February saw positive sales trends, continuing from January. March trends were affected by a shift in holidays, with Easter falling in April, causing some large ads to be pushed back. However, overall trends remained positive through February. Q: Can you discuss the cadence of the year and the timing of store openings? A: Jeff White explained that Q1 might feel pressure due to a later start of spring, but Q2 and Q3 present opportunities, especially in fishing and hunting. A new store is planned to open at the end of Q3 or beginning of Q4. Q: How do you expect EBITDA to convert to free cash flow, and what opportunities exist for working capital efficiency? A: Jeff White stated that while no specific free cash flow guidance is provided, they expect positive free cash flow through increased profitability and inventory efficiency. The focus is on being seasonally ready and managing inventory flow effectively. Q: Is the trade-down environment in firearms an opportunity for market share gain? A: Jeff White confirmed that focusing on in-stock items and adjusting assortments to meet customer demand has helped outperform industry trends. Despite lower average unit prices, they maintain strong basket values through add-ons. Q: How is the e-commerce business performing, and what is its impact on overall profitability? A: Jeff White reported double-digit growth in e-commerce, now over 17% of total business, with a significant portion fulfilled in-store. This omnichannel approach enhances profitability by driving store traffic and increasing average order values.
