Premium cooler company Yeti Holdings (NYSE: YETI) has done a good job of beating earnings expectations since going public, and when it reports fourth-quarter earnings on Thursday, Feb. 13, it's likely to be another upbeat report.
Rising direct-to-consumer sales have not only boosted revenue but also improved profitability. The segment's volume increase has allowed its suppliers to rein in costs, so even where Yeti's results could have been negatively impacted by the trade battle with China, strengthening sales have more than made up for it.
The recent coronavirus outbreak won't be a factor for the fourth quarter, though it may weigh on Yeti's guidance for the coming year. Let's take a look at what Yeti investors can expect.
