SNBR - Why Sleep Number Stock Pulled Back Today
Shares of mattress company Sleep Number (NASDAQ: SNBR) pulled back on Thursday after the company reported financial results for the first quarter of 2021. It had record earnings and raised full-year guidance. But it seems the market is concerned about ongoing supply chain issues that caused Q1 revenue to miss expectations. As of 10:30 a.m. EDT, Sleep Number stock was down 14%.
In Q1, Sleep Number's sales were up 20% year over year to $568 million. This number could have been about 9% higher, but the company is experiencing a two-week delay in deliveries because of supply-chain issues. Specifically, there's a lack of foam in the supply chain because of high demand for mattresses in general and low supply of foam because of the COVID-19 pandemic. However, it's a problem management expects will be over in the second quarter.
