# E.l.f. Beauty Seen Meeting Q4 Outlook, Fiscal 2027 Guidance May Miss Consensus, Oppenheimer Says

11:13 AM EDT, 05/13/2026 (MT Newswires) -- E.l.f. Beauty (ELF) could meet the upper end of its implied fiscal Q4 outlook, but is likely to issue an initial fiscal 2027 outlook below Street consensus, Oppenheimer said in a Wednesday note.

The company is scheduled to post its fiscal Q4 results on May 20.

Oppenheimer said the period likely benefited from the rhode brand acquisition and mid-single-digit consumption growth in the core business.

The company is likely to guide fiscal 2027 earnings per share below the $3.63 Street estimate as management typically takes a conservative approach and is expected to reflect macro uncertainties in its outlook, the investment firm said.

"We see limited visibility on a major inflection shorter term as the company will soon be lapping material price increases," Oppenheimer noted, while calling rhode a "clear bright spot" for the company.

Oppenheimer reiterated its perform rating on the stock.

Price: 55.00, Change: -0.66, Percent Change: -1.19
