US: Bed Bath & Beyond stocks rise amid bankruptcy moves – How did the brand perform last year?
Domestic merchandise retailer Bed Bath & Beyond's stocks are seeing a significant uplift after the company reported it was mulling filing for bankruptcy. The retailer has reported significant losses in the fiscal third quarter.
How has the 50-year-old retailer performed over the last year?
According to YouGov BrandIndex - which tracks consumer sentiment towards thousands of brands daily - Bed Bath & Beyond saw its brand performance decline across different metrics since January 2022.
The retailer’s Index score - which measures average Impressions, Value, Quality, Reputation, Satisfaction, and Recommendation scores for the brand - dropped from a net score of 31 on 1 January 2022, to a net score of 23 on 4 January 2023, around the time the company announced it was contemplating a bankruptcy filing.
The New Jersey-based company’s Satisfaction score - which reflects how satisfied or dissatisfied customers are with the brand - has followed a similar trajectory. The Satisfaction score fell from a net score of 32, at the start of last year, to a net score of 25 at the start of January 2023.
The brand has also seen its Consideration score - which represents if customers would consider making a purchase from the brand the next time, they are in the market to purchase products - decline over the last year. In January 2022, one in three (30%) customers said they would consider purchasing from Bed Bath & Beyond. By January 2023, slightly fewer (26%) of consumers responded similarly.
The brand’s Current Customer score - which measures if customers have made a purchase from the brand in the past three months has declined as well. The score went from one out of 10 in January 2022 to one out of 11 in January 2023.
