The primary driver of the current bearish sentiment around RH (NYSE:RH) is the recent Q4 2025 earnings report, released in March. The firm reported adjusted EPS of $1.53, missing analyst consensus estimates of $2.21 by 30.8%. For Q1 2026, management guided revenue to decline by 2% to 4% year-over-year. Even more concerning is the forecasted Adjusted EBITDA margin for Q1, expected to be between 5.5% and 6.5%, a steep drop from the 13.1% reported in the prior year. The profitability of the firm is being squeezed from both ends: rising external costs and heavy internal investment. Management has quantified a tariff-related impact of 190 basis points on gross margins due to sourcing changes and supply chain complexity.
