Conn’s added that it continues to be challenged by “macroeconomic headwinds, which is impacting consumer spending and disproportionately affecting year-over-year sales to the Company’s financial access customer segment and sales of discretionary product categories.”
The company also withdrew its previous FY23 financial guidance due to the leadership change and macroeconomic uncertainty.
