RH Earnings: RH Stock Soars 18% on Strong Forward Guidance

Shares of RH (RH) are up 18% after the high-end furniture retailer reported a strong first-quarter profit and reaffirmed its full-year outlook.
Confident Investing Starts Here:
California-based RH, formerly known as Restoration Hardware, reported adjusted earnings per share (EPS) of $0.13, which was well ahead of the Wall Street consensus that called for a loss of -$0.07. Revenue in the first three months of the year totaled $814 million, which was slightly below estimates of $818 million.
In terms of guidance, RH maintained its Fiscal 2025 outlook that calls for revenue growth of 10% to 13%, and a margin of up to 21%. Management said they also anticipate $350 million in free cash flow this year. In the current second-quarter, revenue is forecast to grow between 8% and 10%, even as the company absorbs near-term pressure from import tariffs and international expansion costs.

Difficult Housing Market
In the earnings release, management said they are operating in 'the worst housing market in almost 50 years.' Still, RH managed to increase its net revenues 12% year-over-year while maintaining 7% adjusted operating margins. CEO Gary Friedman said RH's expanding physical footprint, especially in Europe, continues to drive the company forward.
International performance remains a bright spot for the furniture maker. RH England reported a 47% demand increase in Q1, while RH Munich and Düsseldorf in Germany saw combined growth of 60%. Customer demand in Paris, London, and Milan is expected to grow following gallery openings in those cities over the next year.
While tariff risks remain, RH's management team said they are responding by shifting much of the company's sourcing out of China. RH stock has declined 55% this year.
Is RH Stock a Buy?
The stock of RH has a consensus Moderate Buy rating among 17 Wall Street analysts. That rating is based on 10 Buy, six Hold, and one Sell recommendations issued in the last three months. The average RH price target of $268.47 implies 51.79% upside from current levels. These ratings are likely to change after the company's financial results.

Lucid Shatters World Record With 749-Mile Drive On A Single Charge

The widespread adoption of electric vehicles has long been hindered by a two-headed dragon: the lack of public charging infrastructure and the typical driver's range anxiety. These obstacles push automakers to find ways to improve range and show off their progress. A Lucid Air Grand Touring took the Guinness World Record for the longest trip in an EV on a single charge last weekend. The luxury sedan completed an impressive 749-mile journey between St. Moritz, Switzerland and Munich, Germany, shattering the previous record by nearly 100 miles. Behind the wheel of the Lucid was Umit Sabanci, a London-based entrepreneur who has the eccentric hobby of breaking Guinness World Records. In 2017, Sabanci set the record for visiting the most countries in 24 hours by scheduled transportation. He and a friend darted to 13 countries across Europe. In 2022, he completed the fastest circumnavigation of the Earth by scheduled flights. Sabanci flew a three-flight itinerary from and to Los Angeles International Airport in 46 hours and 23 minutes via Doha, Qatar and Brisbane, Australia. Sabanci previously worked with Lucid. He broke the record driving to the most countries on a single charge in June 2024. The vanity record breaker drove 567 miles southward through the Netherlands, Belgium, Luxembourg, Germany, France, Switzerland, Austria, Liechtenstein and Italy. In a statement regarding the single-charge distance record, he said: "When I completed the nine-country journey in 2024, it was just the beginning. This new achievement takes that journey even further. I'm proud to be part of a movement that proves electric mobility isn't just the future; it's already redefining what's possible today."

The California-based manufacturer likely provided the modifications and expertise necessary to extend the drive far beyond the Lucid Air Grand Touring's EPA-estimated range of 516 miles. Lucid has stripped the record from a privately run Mercedes-Benz EQS 450+. The previous record of 645 miles was set just last month and broke the symbolic 1,000-kilometer barrier. One can only hope that competition for bragging rights between manufacturers will drive the record even further out and lead to technology that will become standard across all EVs. It's hard to believe that we're only three years removed from Mercedes-Benz Vision EQXX's unveiling. The German automaker built a hyper-efficient electric concept car to prove that an electric vehicle could have 1,000 kilometers of range. However, the one-off car was designed as a bland, blobby teardrop to minimize drag, taking function over form to the extreme. Now, we're seeing typically styled electric cars blasting past the 1,000-km mark. It's impressive to see how far EVs have progressed in recent years, and hopefully, this level of development won't stop. Want more like this?

FHLB Dallas and Origin Bank Celebrate Awarding $2M in Affordable Housing Program Funds to Support The Wellspring's Holly Haven

MONROE, La.--(BUSINESS WIRE)--A new campus slated to open early 2027 to assist families experiencing homelessness in Monroe, Louisiana, received much needed support in the form of a $2 million Affordable Housing Program (AHP) grant from the Federal Home Loan Bank of Dallas (FHLB Dallas), awarded through member Origin Bank. The banks celebrated awarding the funds to The Wellspring Alliance for Families Inc. (The Wellspring) during a ceremonial check presentation today. The AHP grant will support the development of Holly Haven, a private-living housing campus designed to serve unsheltered families and individuals, including those escaping domestic violence. 'This grant is crucial to the construction of a facility with private living spaces where families and individuals escaping trauma can find not just safety but also privacy and dignity,' said The Wellspring's President and CEO Caroline Cascio. 'Holly Haven will launch a new era of service delivery for The Wellspring and we are grateful to FHLB Dallas and Origin Bank for their support of this development, which will create a pathway to stability and self-sufficiency for families in Northeast Louisiana.' The Holly Haven campus will house two private-living facilities, one on the north side and the other on the south side of Holly Street in Monroe. Together, the two facilities will offer 28 units, some of which will adjoin to accommodate larger families. Both facilities will be equipped to meet the basic needs of those in residence and will be adjacent to service sites, including case management, safety planning and support groups for adults and children. 'We're proud to support The Wellspring and the creation of a facility that will offer both adults and children in our community a safe haven during trying times of their lives,' said Origin Bank's Senior Vice President, Commercial Relationship Manager Rick Guillot. 'This project aligns with Origin's purpose of enriching the lives of people in our community.' AHP funds are awarded through FHLB Dallas member institutions and assist FHLB Dallas members in financing the purchase, construction and rehabilitation of owner-occupied, rental or transitional housing and housing for homeless individuals. The funds must be used to benefit households with incomes at or below 80 percent of the median income for the area. 'Whether in bustling urban centers or underserved rural communities, everyone deserves a place to feel secure and supported,' said Greg Hettrick, senior vice president and director of Community Investment at FHLB Dallas. 'We're proud to fund a project that will offer families in this community a vital lifeline, close to home, during times of crisis.' In 2024, FHLB Dallas awarded $21.7 million in AHP General Fund grants to Louisiana-based affordable housing projects. The grants will help create 684 new or rehabilitated housing units. FHLB Dallas will announce 2025 grant awardees this fall. Learn more about the FHLB Dallas Affordable Housing Program.
