Chris Hill: A mixed holiday quarter for Williams-Sonoma. Overall profits came in higher than expected, but Williams-Sonoma is the parent company of Pottery Barn. Andy, they are struggling over there at Pottery Barn.

Andy Cross: Yeah, they are. Relatively, they did, as you mentioned, better than some of us were expecting. But their brand growth really has been falling. Pottery Barn was down 4%, and Pottery Barn Kids and Teens are both down, 5% and 8% respectively. 

West Elm continues to be the bright spot at Williams-Sonoma. Here's what you have with this store. You have a loyal customer base that loves to shop at Williams-Sonoma. They tend to be older demographic, wealthier demographic. They are competing with the Amazons and Wayfairs of the world. Most of the products you buy at Williams-Sonoma you can only buy at Williams-Sonoma; same with West Elm. With West Elm, they're actually having more success going into the younger demographic markets like college-aged kids. And you have a business that's basically flat. GDP growth kind of levels. They're very diligent on the cost side. It generates healthy profits. It'll probably grow earnings in the mid-single digits this year. They generate a lot of cash, and they buy back stock and they invest it well. The stock sells at 14 times earnings.

So I think you have a market-beater from here on out. The stock is around $50. They bought back 13% of the shares over the last few years. You have a decent value play, and maybe you get some leverage as they continue to expand internationally. I think you have a good shot at some good, healthy market-beating returns, considering that the market is going to grow 7% a year. I think they can beat that.

Hill: They also do a good job across the omnichannel, when you think about it. A lot of bricks-and-mortar retailers struggle. They do a good job with their stores, with their e-commerce, with the catalogs.

Cross: Yeah, and they just brought in, just this week, announced a new leader for Pottery Barn. The longtime leader there, who I think has been there 20 years, is stepping down and someone else is coming in. So, breathing some new life into a brand that desperately needs it.
