Company News
MillerKnoll missed first-quarter expectations, with revenue of $926.6 million falling short of the $942 million analyst estimate. The company attributed the underperformance primarily to severe winter weather, which reduced retail traffic and temporarily closed stores, particularly affecting its North America Retail segment. CEO Andi Owen noted that operational disruptions also impacted manufacturing facilities. The company reported adjusted earnings per share of $0.43, below the $0.45 estimate, whilst adjusted EBITDA of $91.1 million missed the $93.74 million forecast. Management provided cautious guidance for the second quarter, with revenue expected at $975 million and adjusted EPS at $0.52, both below analyst estimates of $993.2 million and $0.61 respectively. The company's market capitalisation stands at $988.7 million.
MillerKnoll shares plunged over 20% on Thursday after the furniture maker issued a disappointing forecast for the current quarter, citing impacts from the Middle East conflict. The company expects an $8 million to $9 million hit due to minimal shipments to the region and higher logistics costs.

CFO Kevin Veltman cited higher fuel prices and plans to send only a minimal portion of $12 million in Middle East orders. The company's third-quarter revenue reached $926.6 million with adjusted earnings of 43 cents per share, both slightly missing expectations. Thursday's decline pushed MillerKnoll shares into negative territory for the year.

The furniture manufacturer generated $61 million in cash flow from operations and reduced debt by $41 million, lowering its debt-to-EBITDA ratio to 2.75x. The company ended the quarter with $594 million in liquidity. North America Contract posted particularly strong performance, with net sales up 4.4% and orders increasing 13.1%.
