TSCO’s earnings outlook has consistently fallen over the last several years as it faces multiple headwinds.
Tractor Supply is dealing with weaker demand for discretionary, seasonal, and big-ticket items, as well as other key setbacks, including its pet business.
The company is projected to see its earnings fall 4.4% YoY on 3% higher revenue. TSCO is projected to follow this up with 5% higher revenue next year and 8% YoY adjusted earnings growth.
