RH Q4 Misses Estimates, Shares Plunge 19% on Revenue Shortfall and $326M Capex Plan
Summary
RH reported fourth-quarter revenue of $842.6 million, which, despite being up 3.7% year-over-year, materially missed analyst estimates by 3.6%, with EBITDA also falling short. This significant earnings miss triggered an immediate and sharp market reaction, sending shares down approximately 19%. The company also outlined a substantial capital expenditure plan of $326 million for 2025, including brand acquisitions, which CEO Gary Friedman expects to transition from costs to revenue drivers by late 2026. This news follows recent negative first-quarter revenue guidance, projecting a 2-4% decline, which was previously disclosed in an 8-K filing on March 31st. The combination of a Q4 miss, negative guidance, and significant investment plans creates near-term uncertainty for the stock. Traders will be watching for further details on the capex deployment and any revisions to future guidance.
