ウーバー株上昇相場を示唆　アナリストが解説

VF Corp

Needham analyst Tom Nikic initiated coverage on VF Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>)<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VFC/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> with a price forecast of $28.</a>
Per the analyst, the company is recovering from a difficult period that saw its earnings per share drop by about 80%.
Nikic highlights that CEO Bracken Darrell is implementing a plan to improve efficiency and margins, rejuvenate the Vans brand, and reduce debt leverage.
The analyst views VF Corporation as an attractive turnaround story, projecting FY28 EPS to exceed $2.00 (compared to pro-forma FY24 EPS of $0.64 excluding Supreme).
The stock could reach $40 within 2-3 years, leaving room for growth, especially considering its peak of around $100 before the pandemic, the analyst highlights.
Although challenges remain, the analyst highlights that the company is a &#8220;compelling turnaround story.&#8221;

Nikic notes that VF Corporation previously had over $6 billion in net debt, but after selling Supreme for $1.5 billion and other non-core assets, along with better working-capital management and stabilizing fundamentals, <a href="https://www.benzinga.com//node/43302258">net debt is now around $3.3 billion.</a>
The company is expected to continue reducing debt, which will improve the profit and loss and provide more operational flexibility, the analyst adds.
Price Action: VFC shares are trading lower by 0.61% to $24.20 at last check Wednesday.

This Ralph Lauren Analyst Begins Coverage On A Bullish Note; Here Are Top 5 Initiations For Wednesday

Needham analyst Tom Nikic initiates coverage on VF (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>) with a Buy rating and announces Price Target of $28.

Goldman Sachs analyst Brooke Roach reiterated a<a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/VFC/analyst-ratings"> Neutral rating</a> on the shares of VF Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/VFC#NYSE">VFC</a>) and raised the price target from $22 to $25.
VFC delivered a broad-based <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/earnings/25/01/43302258/apparel-company-vf-corp-beats-q3-expectations-north-face-climbs-vans-slips">third-quarter beat</a>, and raised its full-year 2025 free cash flow guidance, said the analyst.
However, the company provided a fourth-quarter revenue forecast below consensus, primarily due to wholesale timing shifts and foreign exchange impacts. 
Overall, the analyst remains positive about the company&#8217;s progress with its Reinvent strategy, noting continued improvements in execution during the quarter.
According to the analyst, key highlights from the quarter include, year-over-year revenue growth for the first time in nine quarters, driven by growth across all regions, strong performances from TNF and Timberland, and sequential improvement at Vans with favorable comparisons.
The analyst also highlighted positive year-over-year sell-through for Vans in the U.S. non-value channel during the holiday season, solid gross margin expansion, benefiting from easier comparisons to last year&#8217;s inventory reset, product cost tailwinds, and lower promotional activity.
Greater-than-expected savings in SG&amp;A costs, with management on track to achieve approximately $300 million in SG&amp;A run-rate savings by the end of FY25; and ongoing debt reduction, with the company remaining on track to meet its medium-term leverage target of 2.5x or lower by FY28. 
The analyst views this quarter as a significant indication of early progress with VFC's Reinvent plan, and is optimistic about the business&#8217;s margin trajectory, especially in terms of SG&amp;A.
The analyst is eager to receive a more detailed update on the recent performance and future strategy of each brand during the second segment of the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/calendars/guidance">company's Investor Day, scheduled for March 6.</a>
Price Action: VFC shares are trading higher by 4.65% at $26.75 at the last check Thursday.
