Smith Leonard: Furniture Orders Down 6% in June

New orders in June were down 6% from June 2018 and 3% year-to-date. The decline in orders in June was the fifth consecutive month of declining orders, according to a report by the Smith Leonard accounting and consulting firm. 

The firm’s monthly survey of residential furniture manufacturers and distributors showed new orders increased for only 36% of the participants for the month. Year-to-date, new orders were down for 70% of the participants.

The survey also showed shipments in June 2019 dropped 4% over June 2018. Year to date, shipments were about even with the same period last year.

Backlogs in June were down 5% from last year, 3% lower than reported last month. Receivable levels seemed to be back in line considering the above shipment levels with participants reporting receivable levels about even with last June and up 1% from May.
