One-month return of Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE:TREX) was -7.42%, and its shares lost 32.52% of their value over the last 52 weeks. Trex Company, Inc.

Wedgewood Partners made the following comment about Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE:TREX) in its Q4 2022 investor letter:

"Trex Company, Inc. (NYSE:TREX) detracted from performance while going through what is now a well-telegraphed correction in channel inventories. Similar to Pool, the market is now disproportionately focused on interest rates and their potential effects on end demand for replacement decking. While near-term declines in revenue look extremely painful compared to 2021, we expect 2023 revenues to still be much higher than 2019 levels, yet the stock is trading not far from where it was pre-Pandemic. The Company maintains dominant market share and is taking share from traditional wood decking, as Trex's composite products have a lower total cost of ownership. Trex's competitive positioning is still intact, and the Company should be able to compound at attractive growth rates now that channel inventories have normalized and contractor backlogs are still at healthy levels."
