Traeger, Inc. provided earnings guidance for the first quarter and full year fiscal 2022. First quarter guidance reflects a decline in year over year sales growth driven by comparing against accelerated retail activity in the first quarter of 2021 and the impact of inflationary pressures and geopolitical turmoil on consumer sentiment and discretionary spending, as well as gross margin pressures due to global supply chain challenges. Total revenue is expected to be between $208 million and $212 million.
Full year guidance reflects a moderation in year over year sales growth driven by comparing against two years of accelerated retail activity and the impact of inflationary pressures and geopolitical turmoil on consumer sentiment and discretionary spending, as well as gross margin pressures due to global supply chain challenges. Total revenue is expected to be between $800 million and $850 million.
