Acuity Brands Inc. faces significant business risks due to fluctuations in foreign currency exchange rates. As the company engages in cross-border transactions across multiple countries, it is increasingly exposed to exchange rate volatility. A stronger U.S. dollar could diminish the competitiveness of its products abroad, while a weaker dollar might escalate the cost of imported inventory, adversely affecting the cost of goods sold and overall financial performance. Such exchange rate fluctuations could therefore pose a substantial risk to Acuity Brands Inc.’s business operations.
Overall, Wall Street has a Moderate Buy consensus rating on AYI stock based on 5 Buys and 2 Holds.
