Forward guidance

The company is optimistic and believes it has the backlog, order velocity and momentum to deliver strong results, despite the on-going challenges of the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact on the supply chain.

Tailwinds

  • Significant backlog and robust demand from all residential channels.
  • Making progress with supply chain challenges.
  • Overseas suppliers and own factories ramp up production to allow us to service this additional demand.
  • Maintaining rigorous safety protocols in all workplaces and have had essentially no workplace spread in any location thus far.
  • Employees who can work remotely continue to do so.

Headwinds

  • Concerned about the recent surge in COVID infections and hospitalizations.
  • Supply chain issues will continue at least into the fiscal 2022 first quarter.
  • Logistics challenges are slowing order fulfillment, particularly for Home Meridian.
  • Home Meridian orders are programmed out and scheduled for delivery to its larger accounts further into the future than usual, which is also contributing to the increased backlog.
  • Expect these headwinds will continue to impact us and our sales in Q4, with steady improvements beginning in mid-February 2021 after the new year holidays in China and Vietnam.
