Description: LZB La-Z-Boy November 12, 2025
La-Z-Boy Inc. (NYSE:LZB) designs, manufactures, and sells upholstered and case-goods furniture across the United States, Canada, and other overseas markets. The company operates two primary segments: Wholesale, which produces recliners, sofas, sectionals, and wood-frame pieces and sells them to its own La-Z-Boy Galleries, Comfort Studios, franchise partners, and independent retailers; and Retail, which delivers finished furniture directly to consumers through company-owned stores, a licensing program, and the Joybird e-commerce platform that also runs small-format urban locations.
Key recent metrics suggest modest but stabilizing performance: FY 2023 revenue was roughly $1.5 billion, with an operating margin of about 6 %, and inventory turnover improved to 4.5 ×, reflecting tighter supply-chain management. E-commerce sales-driven largely by Joybird-grew ≈ 20 % YoY, underscoring the sector’s shift toward online purchasing. The home-furnishings industry remains sensitive to housing starts and consumer confidence; a 1 % rise in U.S. housing starts historically correlates with a 0.4 % lift in La-Z-Boy’s comparable-store sales, according to the company’s own guidance.
