Celsius Holdings, Inc. (NASDAQ:CELH) shares are slightly lower on Tuesday. Bank of America, in a note, maintained its estimate for Celsius' 2024 fiscal year third quarter sales at $289 million, citing inventory issues.
The Details: The firm's lower sales estimate reflects "too much inventory," resulting in a $110 million hit to sales. Additionally, Bank of America noted that Celsius is currently working to reduce excess inventory that it has accumulated due to slower growth.
The bank also lowered its EBIDTA and EPS estimates due to these inventory concerns. Specifically, the bank lowered its EBIDTA estimate from $45 million to $25.5 million and EPS from 12 cents to 7 cents.
Bank of America also raised its estimates for Celsius' quarterly Selling and Marketing expenses to $90 million. The bank expects Celsius to continue to, "spend against its advertising budget" in order to build further demand for the company's products.
