Mattress Firm Holding Corp. (NASDAQ: MFRM) is set to report its fiscal first-quarter financial results after the markets close on Thursday. The consensus estimates from Thomson Reuters are calling for a net loss of $0.04 per share on $867.20 million in revenue. In the same period of the previous year, the company posted EPS of $0.33 and $562.55 million in revenue.
In the previous quarter, the company said that it expected to have a net loss of $0.07 per share to breakeven in the fiscal first quarter, compared to the consensus estimate of $0.30 EPS at that time. This discrepancy was mainly driven by the dilution from financing the Sleepy’s acquisition.

The changes, which were effective immediately, represent part of a long-term succession plan for the organization and will allow for better division of responsibilities for the two executives.
