Stock Track11-20

La-Z-Boy Inc. (NYSE: LZB) witnessed a surge of 6.63% in its stock price during Wednesday's trading session, outshining the broader market. This significant upward movement can be attributed to two key factors:

Firstly, La-Z-Boy announced a 10% increase in its quarterly dividend, raising it to $0.22 per share, signaling the company's strong financial position and commitment to rewarding shareholders. The higher dividend yield of 2.08% further enhances the stock's appeal to income-seeking investors.

Secondly, the furniture maker reported better-than-expected results for its fiscal second quarter ended October 28. Despite the challenging environment with soft furniture and home furnishings spending, La-Z-Boy managed to outperform analysts' estimates for both earnings and revenue. This demonstrated the company's resilience and ability to outpace the industry amidst headwinds.
