After starting off the week strong, markets took a dive on Thursday and Friday, continuing its correction from the start of this year. The S&P 500, Nasdaq and Dow Jones finished the week off down by 0.2%, 1.5% and 0.2%, respectively. The Dow, which has dropped for the sixth straight week, and the Nasdaq both experienced the worst single day drops since March 2020, while the S&P 500 had its second worst day of the year. The cryptocurrency market, which continues to be strongly correlated with equity markets, also fell 5.6% over the course of the week, with Bitcoin and Ethereum down 6.5% and 3.4%, respectively. Conversely, the 10-year treasury yield rose to 3.13% for the first time since 2018.

Major events this week included the FOMC meeting where Fed. Powell announced a 50 basis point interest rate hike, with the expectation of another 50 basis point hike at the June meeting. In addition, economic data showed U.S. productivity dropped in the first quarter by the most since 1947 while GDP shrank in the first quarter and labor costs surged. However, the US Jobs report showed nonfarm payrolls grew 428,000 while the unemployment rate held steady at 3.6% indicating the job market remains strong. 

Next week, investors will be closely watching the CPI data release which economists estimate to be 8.1% year-over-year.

It was also a big week for company earnings, with results and outlook coming in mixed. Among our coverage list included:

— Press Release — 

BEDFORD, Mass., 

May 4, 2022 

Colin Angle, chairman and chief executive officer of iRobot, stated, "Our recent tariff exclusion, combined with prudent cost management, enabled us to outperform our initial operating loss and net loss per share expectations for the first quarter of 2022. In terms of our first-quarter 2022 revenue, we delivered solid performances in the U.S. and Japan, which mostly was offset by a decline in EMEA. The first quarter was also highlighted by important progress to advance each element of our 'INNOVATE. GET. KEEP. GROW.' strategy."

Commenting on the company's outlook, Angle concluded, "Looking ahead, we plan to manage our business in ways that will enable us to navigate the potential for disruptions in the consumer marketplace, particularly in EMEA, primarily driven by a combination of heightened inflation and reduced consumer confidence stemming from the Russia-Ukraine war. While we still anticipate solid revenue growth in North America and our prospects in Japan are strengthening, we have reduced our full-year revenue growth expectations due primarily to the prospect of muted category growth in EMEA. Nevertheless, the combination of tariff-related savings and ongoing actions to carefully manage spending will help us preserve our profitability and enable us to slightly increase the high end of our FY22 EPS targets. We believe that our anticipated revenue and EPS trajectory in the second half of FY22 will leave us well positioned to deliver on our long-term financial targets."

Financial Performance Highlights

  • Revenue for the first quarter of 2022 was $292.0 million, compared with $303.3 million in the first quarter of 2021

  • iRobot's revenue in the U.S. grew 33% and the company's revenue increased 25% in Japan for the first quarter of 2022 versus the same period one year ago. iRobot's first-quarter 2022 revenue in EMEA declined 44% against a very strong quarter in EMEA one year ago.

  • Revenue from premium robots with an MSRP of $500 or more grew by over 30% in the first quarter of 2022. Mid-tier robots (with an MSRP between $300 and $499) and premium robots accounted for 86% of first-quarter 2022 robot sales, versus 84% from the prior year's first quarter.

  • Aeris air purifier revenue was approximately $3 million in the first quarter of 2022.

  • We estimate that iRobot's first-quarter 2022 revenue to support e-commerce, which spans the company's own website and app, dedicated e-commerce websites and the online arms of traditional retailers, grew by 6% from the same period last year and represented approximately 62% of total quarterly revenue. Direct-to-consumer revenue of $41 million in the first quarter of 2022 grew 17% from the same quarter last year and represented 14% of total revenue.

The S&P Global released its U.S. manufacturing purchasing managers' index for April, posting a rise to 59.2 from 58.8 in March. The rate of overall factory growth accelerated for the third month and was the strongest since September 2021, driven by a quicker expansion in output, a softer deterioration in vendor performance and a series-record rise in pre-production inventories. Although lead times lengthened further, severe material and capacity shortages at suppliers led to sharper increases in cost burdens and selling prices. Meanwhile, firms continued to hire additional staff to ease pressure on capacity, as backlogs of work rose at the slowest pace since February 2021. At the same time, firms were strongly upbeat regarding the 12-month outlook for output, but concerns regarding inflation and geopolitical tensions pushed confidence to the lowest for six months.
