Research Alert: CFRA Maintains Strong Buy Opinion On Shares Of Deckers Outdoor

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:We maintain our 12-month price target of $169, based on 22.5x our FY 27 EPS estimate of $7.50 and slightly lower than the company's three-year average forward P/E multiple of 23.2x, reflecting decelerating growth but above peer margins and top-line growth. We maintain our FY 27 EPS estimate of $7.50 and initiate our FY 28 EPS estimate at $8.15. DECK posted solid FQ4 results with FY 27 guidance mostly in line with consensus estimates. The company expects full-year sales growth above 7.5% and EPS in the range of $7.30 to $7.45. The company sees some margin compression with operating margin of 21.5% after 23.1% in FY 26. Management also gave multi-year guidance. DECK sees revenue growth in the high single digits for 2028 through 2030 with operating margin in the low twenties (essentially flat), but it expects EPS growth in the low double digits annually on revenue growth and share repurchases. DECK remains a top pick in footwear thanks to its relative valuation (16x NTM EPS estimates) and strong fundamentals.

Deckers Outdoor Fiscal Q4 Results Reinforce Undervalued Growth Thesis, UBS Says

Deckers Outdoor's (DECK) "solid" fiscal Q4 report reinforces the view that the company is a compelling but undervalued growth opportunity, UBS said in a note emailed Friday.The analysts said they expect the company to outperform expectations over the next year as its Hoka and UGG brands continue to grow faster than the market assumes, driving stronger revenue and earnings growth and supporting a higher valuation over time.While the market may focus on an H2-weighted fiscal 2027 outlook and interpret it as slowing momentum, the analysts said they disagree. The analysts added that investors are overlooking key fundamentals, gross margin and inventory.In fiscal Q4, gross margin rose 85 basis points year-over-year despite tariffs and tough comparisons, and overall gross margin has expanded 740 basis points over the past three years. Inventory also fell 2% year over year, even with a +5% fiscal Q1 2027 sales guide and tariff headwinds, the analysts said, adding that these metrics suggest both Hoka and UGG remain "very healthy brands."The analysts also raised their adjusted diluted earnings per share estimate for fiscal 2027 by about 3% from $7.30 to $7.55.UBS raised its price target on Deckers Outdoor to $161 from $145 while keeping its buy rating.Price: $103.15, Change: $+0.53, Percent Change: +0.52%

Research Alert: Deckers Outdoor Brands Beats Estimates On Hoka And Ugg Strength

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:DECK posted Q4 FY 26 EPS of $0.96 vs. $1.00 in the prior year, $0.13 above consensus estimates on revenues of $1.119B vs. $1.02B (up 9.6%) and $34M above estimates. HOKA revenues increased 14.5% to $671.2M, while UGG increased 9.2% to $408.6M, though operating margin compressed 300 bps to 14.0% due to SG&A expenses jumping 20.2% as gross margin expanded 90 bps. We are excited to see the progress internationally, with international sales surging 25.5%, which should help insulate DECK from higher U.S. tariffs, and we view the company as a top pick in the footwear space. DECK initiated FY 27 guidance, with revenue growth in the high-single-digit percentages and EPS between $7.30 and $7.45, slightly above consensus of $7.34. The company continues to see strong growth for HOKA and UGG brands globally. With shares trading under 15x its FY 27 EPS guidance, we believe DECK offers compelling value, as both brands maintain strong momentum despite challenging retail conditions.

Most Softline Retailers Poised to Meet or Top Quarterly Earnings Views, UBS Says

Most US softline retailers are expected to report upcoming quarterly earnings either in line or above Wall Street's estimates, while consumer spending could rise notably if the Middle East conflict ends soon, UBS Securities said Monday.A survey conducted by the brokerage during the first two weeks of this month showed that consumer spending intentions remained "good," particularly for apparel and footwear despite headwinds from the US-Israel war with Iran that started at the end of February, UBS analysts, including Jay Sole said in a note to clients."We believe the market is overestimating the negative impact of high oil prices on softline company margins," UBS said. "We see most softline companies either meeting or beating (first-quarter) expectations during this upcoming earnings season."The war, which has impacted several Middle East countries, has sent energy prices soaring amid the closure of the Strait of Hormuz, the world's most important chokepoint for crude flows.US retail gasoline prices averaged $4.042 per gallon Monday, compared with $3.151 a year ago, according to data from AAA, a travel organization that tracks fuel prices in the country."US consumers' view of the economy has been somewhat impacted (month on month) by the Middle East conflict and rising gas prices," the UBS analysts said Monday. "Yet, the data show potential for a strong pop in US consumer spending if the Middle East conflict ends soon and gas prices return to pre-conflict levels. This is a main reason we remain bullish."On Holding (ONON), Deckers Outdoor (DECK), Gildan Activewear (GIL), Burlington Stores (BURL), Levi Strauss (LEVI), Ralph Lauren (RL), and TJX (TJX) are among the softline stocks that UBS said it likes and rates as buy. The brokerage said it likes these stocks over several big names such as Nike (NKE) and Lululemon Athletica (LULU), according to the note."We believe the market is significantly underestimating the potential for (artificial intelligence) to positively impact softline companies' sales and margins," the analysts said.On Saturday, Iran took back control the Strait of Hormuz after temporarily opening the waterway to commercial vessels Friday. The US and Iran have accused each other of violating a two-week ceasefire announced April 7, leaving the situation in the Middle East in limbo.Price: $37.24, Change: $+0.29, Percent Change: +0.78%
