Reports Q4 revenue $577.4M, consensus $564.03M. “We were pleased to finish 2023 with financial results that matched or exceeded our outlook, as strong customer behavior and conversion rates during the holiday period drove a year-over-year increase in quarterly GMV, due in part to marketing and other initiatives we put in place with our retail partners,” said PROG Holdings President and CEO Steve Michaels. “Our portfolio remains healthy, and we continue to effectively manage its performance while maintaining cost discipline in the face of challenging retail conditions, enabling us to deliver strong results for both the fourth quarter and the full year. Our focus remains on our three-pillared strategy to grow, enhance, and expand, while our active management of our portfolio and SG&A spend allows us to invest in key growth initiatives, positioning us for future success.”
