- Wednesday, April 3, 9:16 AM Shares of Conn's (CONN) shoot up 13.2% in premarket trading after the retailer's plan to move away from electronics to sell more furniture and appliances starts to add to its bottom line. The company also lifted its FY14 EPS guidance to above consensus estimates. RadioShack (RSH), are you listening? 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]

Wednesday, April 3, 9:10 AM
Premarket gainers: CALL +14%. CONN +10%. ZNGA +10%. ASTX +10%. UNXL +9%. AWRE +9%. OMPI +9%. NVAX +9%. ALXA +8%. MHR +7%. NFX +6%.
Losers: MSPD -19%. GPN -7%. 3 Comments [On the Move] - Thursday, February 7, 9:50 AM Shares of Conn's (CONN +2.6%) straighten themselves out after a premarket post-earnings stumble. Another factor in play, a spanking-new SEC filing (13G) shows St. Denis J. Villere & Company now holds a 6.86% position in the retailer. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, February 7, 8:21 AM Shares of Conn's (CONN) fall 4.5% in premarket trading after the company reports a mixed bag with its Q4 report. The company says same store sales increased 7% even though it saw a harrowing 11% drop in the same-store sales of consumer electronics. As part of its transition, the retailer saw furniture unit sales rise 35.4% with the average selling price in the segment up 17.8%. (PR) Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, January 10, 12:59 PM Electrics retailers move higher with shares of hhgregg (HGG +10.6%) reaching their highest level in close than a month while Conn's (CONN +1.1%) and Best Buy (BBY +4.5%) post more moderate gains. Indications Richard Schulze is still pushing due diligence forward for a Best Buy takeover and the ability of Supervalu to finalize its own sale of assets helped raised the profile of the group, according to traders. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, December 13, 2012, 10:37 AM RadioShack (RSH +3.6%), hhgregg (HGG +2.6%), and Conn's (CONN +1.6%) trade higher as the reality that a struggling big box retailer can attract a buyer helps buoy sentiment a bit. The three haven't attracted M&A buzz of note, but shares tend to get pulled by gravity when Best Buy moves. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, December 3, 2012, 8:03 AM Conn's (CONN): Q3 EPS of $0.35 beats by $0.07. Revenue of $206.4M (+10.6% Y/Y) beats by $7M. Shares +1.7% premarket. (PR) Comment! [Earnings, On the Move]
- Tuesday, November 20, 2012, 12:58 PM Big box busts: RadioShack (RSH -3%), hhgregg (HGG -1.7%), and Conn's (CONN -1%) trades lower after Best Buy sets the bar even lower in the sector with broad sales declines and decreasing margins pressuring cash flow. The firms have put in a spirited effort to turn things around with mobile initiatives and an increased focus on online channels, but the math is working against them with square footage costs a heavy load to bear. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Thursday, October 25, 2012, 10:59 AM Best Buy collateral damage: An earnings warning from the embattled big box retailer spills over to taint shares of peers hhGregg (HGG -9.7%), Conn's (CONN -1.9%), and RadioShack (RSH -3.2%). Also trading weak on the day are office supply sellers OfficeMax (OMX -1.8%) and Office Depot (ODP -1.4%) with the notion floating around again that the combination of a strapped U.S. consumer and a competitive pricing environment for electronics doesn't bode well for profits. 1 Comment [Consumer, On the Move]
- Monday, October 1, 2012, 1:20 PM Shares of Conn's (CONN +7.9%) pop after Canaccord Genuity dials up an upgrade to Buy on the retailer. The company is moving in the opposite direction of its big box peers, with plans to increase its square footage by 20% in FY13-FY14 to make room for higher-margin items. One CONN diffentiator: In-house financing has been a growth driver for Conn's as its customers sign up for credit at one of the highest rates in the sector. Comment! [Consumer, On the Move]
- Wednesday, July 11, 2012, 9:13 AM Shares of hhgregg (HGG) continue their freefall, now down 29.1%, following the retailer's sharp cut in guidance. While RadioShack (RSH) and Best Buy (BBY) are the obvious sympathy selloff plays - Aaron's (AAN), Conn's (CONN), and even GameStop (GME) could also get swept into the fray on concerns about the electronics market. Comment! [On the Move, Consumer]
- Thursday, July 5, 2012, 2:02 PM Shares of electronic sellers RadioShack (RSH +5.4%), hhgregg (HGG +1.6%), and Conn's (CONN +3.8%) trade higher as the ongoing drama at Best Buy continues to raise the M&A profile of the group. With margins razor-thin, the upcoming back-to-school season is also being counted on by the firms as a big part of their turnaround plans. 1 Comment [On the Move, Consumer]
- Friday, June 1, 2012, 2:15 PM Shares of Conn's (CONN +0.1%) poke out a tiny gain with a little help from an initiation from analysts at Piper Jaffray at Overweight. The firm has a take that Conn's is mischaracterized as an electronics retailer, when actually high-margin furniture and mattresses are part of the big picture. Comment! [On the Move]
- Wednesday, November 9, 2011, 10:17 AM Shares of Conn's (CONN -7.6%) retreat knocking out a huge gain yesterday on the retailer's earnings beat and upped guidance. Despite the selloff, the company still stands as a sector outperformer with an impressive 113% YTD return and claims two Overweight and two Hold ratings from analysts. Comment! [On the Move, Consumer]
- Wednesday, September 7, 2011, 10:47 AM Home appliance and electronics retailer Conn's (CONN) surges 25.7% after reporting FQ2 revenue of $184.4M (-14% Y/Y) and EPS of $0.17; the former missed consensus by $0.4M, but the latter beat by $0.06. Same-store sales declined 12.8% Y/Y. The company now expects FY12 EPS of $0.65-$0.75, above a $0.54 consensus. Comment! [Consumer, Earnings, On the Move]
