$100 Invested In Williams-Sonoma 20 Years Ago Would Be Worth This Much Today

Williams-Sonoma's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WSM#NYSE">WSM</a>) short percent of float has fallen 10.68% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 5.71 million shares sold short, which is 7.11% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 3.5 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Williams-Sonoma Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1751644819_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Williams-Sonoma has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Williams-Sonoma's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Williams-Sonoma's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 17.47%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Shares of companies within the broader consumer discretionary sector are trading higher, possibly amid overall market strength after President Trump delayed 50% EU tariffs to July.

Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WSM#NYSE">WSM</a>) saw several analysts reiterate their coverage, with one analyst making a modest reduction to the price forecast following <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/wsm/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">Thursday&#8217;s first-quarter results</a>.
The retailer reported revenue of&nbsp;$1.73 billion, a&nbsp;4.2%&nbsp;increase from the same quarter last year and ahead of Wall Street&#8217;s estimate of&nbsp;$1.67 billion. GAAP earnings per share of&nbsp;$1.85&nbsp;beat the&nbsp;analyst <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45569507" rel="noreferrer noopener">consensus estimate of&nbsp;$1.77</a>.
Williams-Sonoma maintains its fiscal 2025 and long-term&nbsp;outlook&nbsp;despite absorbing higher costs from the current tariff landscape. It emphasized that its&nbsp;guidance&nbsp;does not account for additional future tariffs and may be <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance" rel="noreferrer noopener">revised if material changes occur</a>.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/45553623" rel="noreferrer noopener">Retail ETFs Rattle As Tariffs, Yields, Consumer Caution Pressure Big-Box Stocks</a>
Williams-Sonoma expects fiscal 2025 net revenue to range between&nbsp;-1.5%&nbsp;and&nbsp;+1.5%, with <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings" rel="noreferrer noopener">comparable sales flat to up&nbsp;3.0%</a>.
RBC Capital Markets analyst Steven Shemesh lowered the price forecast to $182 from $189 while keeping an Outperform rating.
While first-quarter comps and headline operating margin outperformed expectations, investor concerns centered around the roughly 220 basis point headwind in merchandising gross margin, Shemesh noted.
Shemesh views much of this impact as temporary and expects improvement beginning in the second quarter. Consequently, the analyst revised the second quarter comp estimate to +1.2% (from -1.5%) and raised the adjusted EPS forecast to $1.81 from $1.74.
For 2025 and 2026, the analyst now projects comp sales growth of +1.1% and +2.6%, respectively (vs. +0.1% and +4.6% previously), and adjusted EPS of $8.33 and $9.10 (vs. $8.36 and $9.46 prior).
KeyBanc analyst Bradley B. Thomas reiterated an Overweight rating with a price forecast of $181.
The analyst says despite a challenging industry environment, the company delivered solid first-quarter results, with comparable sales and earnings per share surpassing expectations.
The analyst remains positive on Williams-Sonoma&#8217;s long-term outlook, driven by ongoing market share gains, a robust balance sheet, and sustainably elevated margins.
The analyst asserts that the company is well-positioned for an eventual housing recovery, with a potential over 50% upside in its shares within the next two to three years.
Thomas now estimates EPS of $1.71 (vs. $1.73 prior) for the second quarter, $1.87 (vs. $1.83 earlier) for the third quarter, and $3.02 (vs. $2.96 prior) for the fourth quarter of 2025.
Also, the analyst raised full-year 2025 EPS estimates to $8.44 (from $8.20) and 2026 EPS estimate to $8.75 (from $8.40).
Telsey Advisory analyst Cristina Fernández maintained an Outperform rating with a price forecast of $215.
The analyst views Williams-Sonoma&#8217;s quarterly performance as solid. However, year-over-year comparisons for gross and operating margins appear weaker due to a one-time adjustment in the first quarter of 2024.
Guggenheim Securities analyst Steven Forbes kept a Neutral rating and writes that while the company&#8217;s ~75 bps gross margin miss in the first quarter drew investor focus, the return to positive furniture comps (first since fourth-quarter 2022) is notable.
The analyst notes that all brands posted positive one-year comps for the first time since the second quarter of 2022, and multi-year comp trends improved across key banners. Forbes says this supports management&#8217;s outlook to return to top-line growth in 2025.
Having now accounted for the pressure from tariff-related margin headwinds, the analyst, by and large, is sticking to previous estimates.
Price Action: WSM shares are trading lower by 1.16% to $158.53&nbsp;at last check Friday.

Editor&#8217;s Note: The GAAP EPS number has been corrected in the story
Williams-Sonoma, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/WSM#NYSE">WSM</a>) shares fell sharply on Thursday after posting results for its <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45563749/williams-sonoma-inc-announces-first-quarter-2025-results" target="_blank" rel="noreferrer noopener">fiscal first quarter of 2025</a>. The retailer reported revenue of $1.73 billion, a 4.2% increase from the same quarter last year and ahead of Wall Street&#8217;s estimate of $1.67 billion. Comparable brand revenue rose 3.4% year over year.
GAAP earnings per share of $1.85 beat the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/earnings">analyst consensus estimate of $1.77</a>.
Williams-Sonoma reported a gross margin of 44.3%, down 360 basis points from the prior year. The decline includes a 300-basis-point benefit from an out-of-period freight adjustment in the same quarter of 2024.
Also Read: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/05/45567061/ralph-lauren-styles-a-q4-beat-revenue-soars-8-dividend-gets-a-10-hike-more">Ralph Lauren Is Growing Despite Tariff Headwinds, Hikes Dividend By 10%</a>
Adjusted gross margin fell 60 basis points year over year. The decrease was primarily due to a 220-basis-point drop in merchandise margins, partially offset by 120 basis points of supply chain efficiencies and 40 basis points of occupancy leverage.
Occupancy expenses rose slightly to $198 million, up 0.8% from the prior year.
Quarterly operating income was $291 million with a 16.8% margin, down 230 basis points. Excluding last year&#8217;s freight benefit, the margin rose 70 basis points.
Williams-Sonoma increased inventories by 10.3% year over year to $1.3 billion, pulling forward receipts to reduce potential FY25 tariff impacts.
&#8220;In the quarter, we saw an acceleration of the positive comp trend coming out of Q4, with all brands running positive comps,&#8221; commented Laura Alber, President and Chief Executive Officer.
&#8220;There is no doubt that existing macroeconomic and geopolitical uncertainties are a focal point for the market. But volatility is not new in our industry, and we are confident in our ability to adapt and navigate whatever lies ahead,&#8221; Alber added.
The company ended the quarter with $1 billion in cash and $119 million in operating cash flow, returning $165 million to shareholders through buybacks and dividends, with $1.1 billion remaining in repurchase authorization.
Williams-Sonoma maintains its fiscal 2025 and long-term outlook despite absorbing higher costs from the current tariff landscape. This includes existing tariffs such as the 30% levy on China, a 10% global reciprocal tariff, and 25% tariffs on imports from Mexico and Canada, as well as on steel and aluminum.
The company emphasized that its guidance does not account for additional future tariffs and may be revised if material changes occur.
Williams-Sonoma expects fiscal 2025 net revenue to range between -1.5% and +1.5%, with comparable sales flat to up 3.0%. Operating margin is forecast between 17.4% and 17.8%, factoring in a 20-basis-point drag from last year&#8217;s extra week.
In dollar terms, revenue is projected at $7.60 billion to $7.83 billion, compared to the $7.67 billion consensus estimate, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/">BZ Pro</a>.
The company continues to target mid-to-high single-digit annual revenue growth and operating margins in the mid-to-high teens.
Price Action: Williams-Sonoma shares are trading lower by 4.42% to $160.50 at last check Thursday. (Updated)
