Retail and Apparel Stock Earnings Preview: KORS, RL, KSS
Read MoreHide Full Article
Retail and apparel stocks haven’t exactly had an easy time as of late. Stocks here have been victims of changing consumer tastes, lower mall traffic, and more intense online competition too. That is why this earnings season may be a make-or-break situation for several companies in this space, including the following three…
Michael Kors
Kors, like many of its competitors, has been struggling in terms of stock prices for years. However, the stock remains a top performer when it comes to beating earnings estimates, while the estimate trend hasn’t been that negative either. The stock was recently upgraded to out of ‘sell’ territory, so there are definitely worse places in this uncertain market environment.
Shares of RL have followed a similar track to KORS over the past few years, and that has been lower. Still, the company also is a top performer when it comes to beating earnings estimates, not that this has saved the company lately. However, shares are a Zacks Rank #4 (sell) and the stock has seen recent estimates crumble, making for a potentially rocky report this time around.
The only department story on this list, Kohl’s has also faced some trouble and is currently a Zacks Rank #4 (sell) too. The stock does have some nice fundamental metrics, but a negative ESP and a sluggish industry don’t leave a lot to like for this name. And with a recent earnings miss and sluggish estimates, this may be a dicey one later this week.
