The ODP Corporation (NASDAQ:ODP) shares are trading higher on Wednesday after the first-quarter FY25 earnings. The company reported first-quarter revenue decline of 9.1% year-on-year to $1.70 billion, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $1.67 billion.
The decrease in reported sales is largely related to lower sales in its Office Depot Division, primarily due to 46 fewer retail locations in service compared to the previous year and reduced retail and online consumer traffic, as well as lower sales in its ODP Business Solutions Division.
