The end of the earnings season is always a good time to take a step back and see who shined (and who not so much). Let’s take a look at how office & commercial furniture stocks fared in Q2, starting with Interface (NASDAQ: TILE).

The sector faces a tepid outlook as workplace dynamics continue to evolve. Hybrid work means that enterprise demand for office furniture is lower. Consumer demand for the same products likely will not offset the loss from enterprises, as individual workers tend to have less space and need for the sector's wares. The Trump administration also possesses a high willingness to impose tariffs on key partners, which could result in retaliatory actions, all of which could pressure those selling furniture that may feature components or labor from overseas. Lastly, the COVID-19 pandemic showed that there is always a risk that something disrupts supply chains, and companies need contingency plans for this.

The 4 office & commercial furniture stocks we track reported a very strong Q2. As a group, revenues beat analysts’ consensus estimates by 3.9% while next quarter’s revenue guidance was 0.7% above.

Luckily, office & commercial furniture stocks have performed well with share prices up 17.5% on average since the latest earnings results.

Market Update

The Fed’s interest rate hikes throughout 2022 and 2023 have successfully cooled post-pandemic inflation, bringing it closer to the 2% target. Inflationary pressures have eased without tipping the economy into a recession, suggesting a soft landing. This stability, paired with recent rate cuts (0.5% in September 2024 and 0.25% in November 2024), fueled a strong year for the stock market in 2024. The markets surged further after Donald Trump’s presidential victory in November, with major indices reaching record highs in the days following the election. Still, questions remain about the direction of economic policy, as potential tariffs and corporate tax changes add uncertainty for 2025.
