Target (TGT:NYQ)<\/strong> announced second-quarter earnings on Tuesday, which came far below their guidance. In early June, Target announced a cut to its second-quarter guidance but didn’t meet its target. Target’s quarterly profit fell by 90% from the previous year’s. They stated that markdowns on unwanted items would affect Target’s bottom line.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Target’s stock is down 3% intraday but says it’s poised for a turnaround and looks toward the holiday season.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

\u201cIf we hadn\u2019t dealt with our excess inventory head on, we could have avoided some short-term pain on the profit line, but that would have hampered our longer-term potential. While our quarterly profit took a meaningful step down, our future path is brighter.\u201d<\/p>Chief Financial Officer Michael Fiddelke<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

Target’s earnings per share came in at $.39 versus $.72, and revenue came in as expected at $26.04 billion. The company saw explosive growth over the covid pandemic, but difficulty getting product off the shelves have taken a toll on its balance sheet. The company has cut its financial outlook twice this year, in May and then in June as the inventory backlog persists. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

“I’m really pleased with the underlying performance of our business, which continues to grow traffic and sales while delivering broad-based unit-share gains in a very challenging environment.”<\/p>CEO Brian Cornell<\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n
