FLXS earnings is coming up. Some things to think about

Flexsteel Inds (FLXS) is reporting earnings next week. Lets focus in on how the stock is performing.

Analysts think Flexsteel Inds will report an EPS (earnings per share) of $0.43, GAAP of 
$0.43, on revenue of $119.42M. 

There are three primary things that FLXS bulls will be concerned with. The first is that the reported EPS beat analysts estimates. The second is that the beat is on higher than expected revenues. Third, that the company guides analysts to robust growth going forward. If all check out, the stock should react accordingly.

Bears are one of the most intelligent land animals in North America. Which is why they'll be listening for news that the company misses on EPS, Revenues, or future guidance. They will look to push a negative growth story for the stock in the coming quarters, and will gain more traction in a generally down market as opposed a market that is generally trending upwards.

If you haven't traded too many earnings reports, it's important to be aware that sometimes the majority of a stock's price movement can be caused by the analysts' estimates, rather than from the earnings report itself. As you see more of these, your ability to recognize one or the other will improve.

Share price moves can have an impact on existing shareholder sentiment. As of August 14 shares of FLXS are trading at $17.65. Over the last 52-week period, the price is down -56.45%.
