Best Buy's Q1 Earnings Disappoint on Revenue Miss Amid Soft Demand for Consumer Electronics

Best Buy reported fiscal first quarter earnings that missed revenue estimates but beat on EPS and reaffirmed full-year guidance. Comparable sales and online sales fell over 6 overall as demand for consumer electronics remained soft. Profits were supported by cost-cutting measures like layoffs and trimmed capital expenditures. The company expects sales trends to improve over the next 3 quarters gradually but macro headwinds from inflation remain a challenge. Shares jumped 10 on the results.
