Mattress manufacturers Tempur Sealy International (NYSE:TPX), Sleep Number (NASDAQ:SNBR), Purple Innovation (NASDAQ:PRPL) slid on Tuesday after Piper Sandler signaled slowing September sales.
Equity analyst Peter Keith pointed to a survey conducted by his firm that reflected a 5% decline in sales amongst the group from 2021. The drop comes only about a month after sales rose sharply surrounding the Labor Day holiday.
“While this was an improvement from prior months (on a mean basis), it suggests a notable drop-off for the 2nd half of September following Labor Day weekend,” Keith told clients.
Shares of Tempur Sealy International (TPX) fell 4.12% and Sleep Number (SNBR) slid 3.68%. Purple Innovation (PRPL), by contrast, see-sawed between positive and negative territory.
Elsewhere, Leggett & Platt shares plummeted after the company cut its guidance.
