Virco Manufacturing Corporation (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/virc#NASDAQ">VIRC</a>) reported mixed second-quarter fiscal 2024 (ended July 31, 2024) results, wherein earnings surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate but sales missed the same. Following the results, the company&#39;s shares lost 9.3% on Sept. 09.
On a year-over-year basis, the top and the bottom lines increased. This was primarily driven by higher factory output and improved operating efficiencies. A large counter-seasonal disaster recovery order also contributed to the positive results. This order is now blending into the company&#39;s usual seasonal delivery pattern, which peaks during the second and third quarters when schools are closed.
Although order rates declined slightly with the progress of summer, Shipments plus Backlog remained higher compared to last year. The company is confident in its ability to adapt to these changes. Its strong financial position supports the ongoing investments in new manufacturing equipment and service expansions. VIRC is well-positioned to seize unexpected opportunities as the market adjusts to a new post-pandemic phase.
Going forward, the company aims to seek potential acquisition opportunities to expand and strengthen its current business capabilities. Also, along with driving its prospects, Virco expects to add shareholder value through quarterly dividends and share repurchases.
<h2>Delving Deeper</h2>
The company reported adjusted earnings of $1.04 per share, which surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $1.00 by 4%. In the last reported quarter, it reported adjusted earnings of 95 cents per share.

Net sales of $108.4 million missed the consensus mark of $115.9 million by 6.5% but grew 1% from the prior-year quarter&#39;s level.
</div>
<h2>Operating Highlights</h2>
During the fiscal second quarter, Virco&#39;s gross profit increased 3.4% year over year to $50.2 million. The gross margin expanded 100 basis points (bps) to 46.3% from 45.3% a year ago.
Selling, general and administrative expenses, as a percentage of sales, increased 60 bps to 26.1% from 25.5% reported a year ago. The uptick in operating expenses stemmed from a modest increase in full-service orders and the associated installation costs.
The company reported an operating profit of $21.9 million compared with $21.2 million in the prior-year quarter.
<h2>Financials</h2>
At the end of the fiscal second-quarter, Virco had cash of $0.8 million, down from $5.3 million at fiscal 2023-end. As of July 31, long-term debt (less current portion) was $4 million, slightly down from $4.1 million at fiscal 2023-end.
At the end of second-quarter fiscal 2024, the company&#39;s inventory came in at $58.6 million, slightly up from $58.4 million in the year-ago period.
<h2>VIRC&#39;s Zacks Rank</h2>
Virco currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).
<h2>Recent Consumer Discretionary Releases</h2>
PENN Entertainment, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/penn#NASDAQ">PENN</a>) reported a narrower-than-expected loss in second-quarter 2024. The company&#39;s bottom and top lines surpassed the Zacks Consensus Estimate but declined on a year-over-year basis. PENN&#39;s quarterly results were hampered by disappointing performances of its South and Interactive segments.
However, top-of-funnel growth improvement, better risk management and enhanced promotional strategies led to stronger-than-expected revenues and adjusted EBITDA in the Interactive segment. PENN continues to focus on database growth and customer engagement through the use of latest technology, ongoing investments in gaming and non-gaming areas and partnerships in food and beverage.
Choice Hotels International, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/chh#NYSE">CHH</a>) delivered drab second-quarter 2024 results, with adjusted earnings and revenues missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate. Nevertheless, both metrics increased on a year-over-year basis.
The results were backed by strong demand trends across the company&#39;s diversified portfolio of brands. This uptrend in demand aided in accelerating global hotel openings, expanding international market reach and increasing the size of its reward program. CHH&#39;s versatile business model and accretive growth strategies ensure the support required to foster its growth trends.
Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/hlt#NYSE">HLT</a>) reported mixed second-quarter 2024 results, with earnings beating the Zacks Consensus Estimate but revenues missing the same. Both metrics increased year over year.
The company&#39;s performance was backed by notable improvements in revenue per available room, attributed to higher occupancy rates and average daily rates. As of June 30, 2024, Hilton&#39;s development pipeline comprised nearly 3,370 hotels, with almost 508,300 rooms across 136 countries and territories. For 2024, HLT expects net unit growth to be in the range of 7-7.5%.

Hilton's Indirect Subsidiary Intends To Offer $1B Of The Issuer's Senior Notes Due 2033

Bill Ackman, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/bill-ackman">the visionary leader </a>of Pershing Square Capital Management, is making headlines in the financial world with a potential strategic shift from a U.S. closed-end fund IPO to the potential launch of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/pershing-square">a Pershing Square</a> Exchange-Traded Fund (ETF).
The development was <a href="https://www.msn.com/en-gb/money/other/ackman-may-launch-pershing-square-etf/vi-AA1psU4Q?ocid=socialshare">reported</a> by Bloomberg&#8217;s Eric Balchunas and Katie Greifeld, who detailed Ackman&#8217;s potential shift from a closed-end fund IPO to launching a Pershing Square ETF.
This move comes on the heels of his decision to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/07/40082441/bill-ackman-hits-pause-on-pershing-square-ipo-after-investors-hesitate">pull the planned IPO</a>, a shift that could redefine how investors access his high-profile investment strategies.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">From Closed-End Fund To ETF: What's Behind The Shift?</h2>
Ackman had initially set the stage for a closed-end fund, a traditional investment vehicle known for its potential to trade at significant premiums or discounts to its net asset value (NAV). 
However, considering the current volatility in the IPO market and shifting investor preferences, Ackman is reportedly exploring a more flexible and accessible ETF structure.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Why An ETF Might Be The Game-Changer</h2>
<ol>
<li>Increased Accessibility and Liquidity: Unlike closed-end funds, ETFs are traded throughout the day like stocks and typically trade close to their NAV due to an in-built arbitrage mechanism. This could attract a broader range of investors, from retail to institutional, enhancing liquidity and transparency.</li>
<li>Cost and Tax Efficiency: ETFs generally boast lower fees and greater tax efficiency compared to closed-end funds. This could be a significant draw for investors looking to benefit from Ackman's investment prowess without the higher costs associated with traditional closed-end funds.</li>
<li>Modern Investment Trends: The ETF market has surged in recent years, driven by demand for liquid, cost-effective, and transparent investment options. Ackman's potential ETF could tap into this trend, aligning Pershing Square with the preferences of today's investors.</li>
</ol>
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Implications For Investors</h2>
For investors, the prospect of a Pershing Square ETF presents an exciting opportunity to gain exposure to Ackman's concentrated investment strategies.
As of the second quarter this year, Ackman&#8217;s Pershing Square Capital hedge fund was focused on 10 holdings, <a href="https://whalewisdom.com/filer/pershing-square-capital-management-l-p">including</a>:
<ul>
<li>Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>) &#8211; 18.50%</li>
<li>Chipotle Mexican Grill, Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) &#8211; 20.10%</li>
<li>Restaurant Brands International Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/QSR#NYSE">QSR</a>) &#8211; 16.65%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOG#NASDAQ">GOOG</a>) &#8211; 13.11%</li>
<li>Canadian Pacific Railway Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CP#NYSE">CP</a>) &#8211; 11.16%</li>
<li>Howard Hughes Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HHH#NYSE">HHH</a>) &#8211; 11.13%</li>
<li>Alphabet Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOOGL#NASDAQ">GOOGL</a>) &#8211; 6.88%</li>
<li>Brookfield Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BN#NYSE">BN</a>) &#8211; 2.70%</li>
<li>Nike Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) &#8211; 2.17%</li>
<li>Seaport Entertainment Group Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SEG#NYSE">SEG</a>) &#8211; 0.62%</li>
</ul>
An ETF could surely offer diversification, tax advantages, and access to a high-profile manager's stock picks. However, potential investors should weigh these benefits against the inherent risks of actively managed funds.
As the ETF market continues to grow, Ackman's potential shift to this vehicle could position Pershing Square at the forefront of modern investing trends.

Bill Ackman Weighs Pivot To ETF After Abandoning Closed-End Fund IPO: Report

Billionaire hedge fund manager Bill Ackman strategically reduced his stake in Chipotle Mexican Grill Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CMG#NYSE">CMG</a>) just before the restaurant <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/24/08/40347476/ceo-switch-wipes-7b-off-chipotles-market-cap-adds-15b-to-starbucks">chain's recent stock selloff and CEO departure. </a>
Ackman&#8217;s move comes at a critical juncture, suggesting his knowledge of Chipotle&#8217;s business dynamics gave him an edge over the broader market. 
What Happened: The restaurant chain, known for its burritos, is witnessing the worst quarter in more than four years.
Since July 1, Chipotle's share price has declined by 17%, setting it on course for its worst quarter since the first quarter of 2020, when it fell 22%.
Despite Chipotle reporting stronger-than-expected revenue and earnings last quarter, the market's reaction to the results was negative, with the stock falling 1.9% on the day after as the company's management chose to hold steady its annual guidance and signaled potential near-term pressures on margins.
On Aug. 13, the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/24/08/40338228/starbucks-appoints-chipotle-mexican-grill-veteran-as-new-ceo-stock-soars">restaurant chain took a significant hit,</a> plunging 7.5% — its worst single-day drop in over a year —following the announcement that Brian Niccol, the CEO credited with much of Chipotle's recent success, would be leaving to take the helm at Starbucks Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/SBUX#NYSE">SBUX</a>).
Chipotle's Chief Operating Officer Scott Boatwright was named Interim CEO.
Ackman Adjusts: According to the latest 13F filings, Ackman's Pershing Square Capital Management, L.P. sold 8.38 million shares of Chipotle during the second quarter of 2024. That&#8217;s a 23% reduction in his overall position compared to the end of the first quarter.
The shares were sold at an average price of $60.40, locking in substantial gains <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/cryptocurrency/24/08/40167312/us-stocks-trim-black-mondays-drops-as-services-gauge-expands-bond-gains-stall-as-traders-r">before the market downturn</a>. Chipotle shares delivered a robust year-to-date performance of 37% through the end of June. It marked seven consecutive months of gains until April.
Ackman first invested in Chipotle back in 2016. He acquired a $234.8 million stake that represented 4.3% of his overall portfolio at the time. Since then, he steadily increased his position. This culminated in a $2.1 billion stake at the end of the first quarter 2024. Chipotle remained his largest holding until it was overtaken by Hilton Worldwide Holdings Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HLT#NYSE">HLT</a>). 
Chipotle&#8217;s weight in Pershing Square&#8217;s portfolio decreased from 20.1% to 17.33% between the first two quarters of 2024.
The timing of this adjustment proved to be impeccable, as the restaurant chain's stock has since experienced a notable decline
Still, the average purchase price of all Chipotle shares owned by Pershing Square is $8.72. When compared to the current market price of $52, the return on investment has been nearly 500%.

The U.S. stock market is poised for its second consecutive day of gains, aiming to reverse the sell-off that occurred through Monday as investors assess the ongoing earnings season and welcome reassuring comments<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/asia/24/08/40223986/traders-resume-yen-dollar-carry-trade-as-bank-of-japan-pledges-no-rate-hikes-during-market-volatilit"> from the Bank of Japan.</a>
Deputy Gov. Shinichi Uchida stated the central bank will avoid raising interest rates during times of market volatility, easing fears sparked last week by a rate hike from the Bank of Japan coupled with growing concerns about a potential U.S. recession.
The U.S. dollar surged 2% against the Japanese yen, marking its largest one-day increase since June 2022 and reigniting trader interest in the yen-dollar carry trade strategy.
Both the S&amp;P 500 and the Nasdaq 100 were 1% by midday trading in New York. The Dow Jones and the Russell 2000 notched smaller gains, up 0.7% and 0.5%, respectively. 
Treasury yields rose again by about 5 basis points across the curve, sending bond-related assets down. The iShares 20+ Year Treasury Bond ETF (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TLT#NASDAQ">TLT</a>) fell 0.4% after tumbling 2.2% on Tuesday.
Oil shined among commodities, with the West Texas Intermediate (WTI) light crude soaring 3.6% to $75 a barrel, after the Energy Information Administration report showed a larger-than-expected drawdown in U.S. crude oil inventories last week. Natural gas prices were also up by over 4% amid forecasts of warmer weather leading speculators to expect higher electricity consumption for cooling. As a result, energy stocks rallied.
Gold inched 0.2% higher, while silver slightly eased by 0.1%. Bitcoin (CRYPTO: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/btc/usd">BTC</a>) was flat for the day.
