Peering Into Boot Barn Holdings's Recent Short Interest

Designer Brands Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/dbi#NYSE">DBI</a>) released second-quarter fiscal 2024 results, wherein both the bottom and top lines lagged the Zacks Consensus Estimate and declined year over year.
However, during the second quarter, the company continued to advance with its strategic initiatives aimed at business transformation. Despite challenges in categories like dress and seasonal footwear, the expansion of athletic and athleisure brands helped mitigate some of the pressure.
Looking ahead, the focus will be on investments in retail and brand businesses to drive growth. Enhancements in product assortment, marketing and the omnichannel customer experience are intended to ensure the company remains a top destination for footwear. These enhancements will also help it to adapt to changing consumer spending patterns and evolving market trends.

<h2>More on Designer Brands&#39; Q2 Results</h2>
Designer Brands posted adjusted earnings of 29 cents per share, which missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of 56 cents. The company recorded earnings of 59 cents per share in the year-ago period.
Net sales were $771.9 million, down 2.6% year over year. The top line missed the Zacks Consensus Estimate of $819 million. Also, comparable sales (comps) decreased 1.4% year over year compared with the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a nearly 3.7% decline.
<h2>Insight Into DBI&#39;s Margins &amp; Expenses</h2>
Gross profit amounted to $252.9 million, down 7.5% from $273.4 million in the year-ago quarter. This was primarily due to lesser revenues. Also, the gross margin decreased 170 bps to 32.8% from the prior-year period&#39;s level.
This decline was mainly due to a lower initial markup on athletic and athleisure products as the company focused on increasing its market share in these categories. Additionally, the need to run promotions to clear seasonal inventory put pressure on the gross margin, leading to reduced profitability.
Adjusted SG&amp;A expenses, as a percentage of net sales, rose to 28.9%, up 200 basis points from 26.9% in the same quarter last year. This increase in the ratio was primarily due to a drop in overall sales, combined with higher fixed costs and greater investment in areas like talent acquisition and IT, particularly for e-commerce and back-to-school marketing. However, this impact was somewhat mitigated by cost reductions implemented at the start of the second quarter.
Adjusted net income amounted to $17.1 million, down 56.7% from $39.4 million in the year-ago quarter.

Under Armour, Inc. (NYSE: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/uaa#NYSE">UAA</a>) has revised its fiscal 2025 restructuring strategy to include additional steps aimed at enhancing supply-chain operations and business efficiency. Originally, the company estimated pre-tax restructuring expenses to be in the range of $70-$90 million.&nbsp;After reevaluation, pre-tax restructuring expenses are anticipated to be in the range of $140-$160 million.
A major driver of this adjustment is the decision to phase out one of its primary distribution centers in Rialto, CA, by March 2026. This restructuring reflects Under Armour&#39;s broader goal of streamlining operations and refining its supply chain. While the updated plan will increase short-term costs, the company aims to emerge more agile and financially stronger in the long run.

<h2>Financial Impact of Restructuring on Under Armour</h2>
The financial impact of Under Armour&#39;s restructuring plan is expected to be significant, involving both cash-related and non-cash expenses. The company projects cash-related charges of up to $75 million, with $30 million allocated for severance and employee benefits and an additional $45 million for various transformation initiatives aimed at improving operational efficiency.&nbsp;
In addition, non-cash charges are anticipated to be almost $85 million. This includes $7 million in severance-related costs and $78 million in impairments tied to assets such as facilities, software and other resources. By the end of the first quarter of fiscal 2025, Under Armour had already incurred $34 million in restructuring costs, consisting of $19 million in cash-related charges and $15 million in non-cash expenses. The company estimates that approximately two-thirds of the total restructuring costs will be recognized by the end of fiscal 2025.
<h2>UAA&#39;s Revised Financial Projections</h2>
As a result of the expanded restructuring efforts, Under Armour has updated its fiscal 2025 financial outlook. The company now forecasts operating loss to be in the range of $220-$240 million, an increase from the previously expected range of $194-$214 million. However, excluding restructuring and litigation-related charges, adjusted operating income is projected to be between $140 million and $160 million.
Additionally, the company has revised its expectations for loss per share, which is now estimated to be between 58 cents and 61 cents, up from the earlier guided range&nbsp; of 53 - 56 cents. On an adjusted basis, excluding the impact of restructuring expenses, Under Armour anticipates earnings per share to be in the range of 19 - 22 cents. These updated projections reflect the financial implications of the restructuring plan.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
Under Armour&#39;s updated fiscal 2025 restructuring plan marks a significant shift in its efforts to streamline operations and cut costs. The decision to exit a key distribution facility, alongside other transformational initiatives, has led to an increase in anticipated restructuring expenses. Despite the immediate financial impact, including higher projected losses, the company aims to create a more agile and efficient business in the long term.
While the expanded restructuring will result in increased short-term costs, the adjusted earnings outlook, excluding these charges, remains positive. Under Armour aims to be better positioned for sustained profitability and growth in the years to come.

Stitch Fix, Inc. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/sfix#NASDAQ">SFIX</a>) has seen a substantial 45.4% surge in its stock price in the past six months, significantly outpacing the Zacks Retail-Apparel and Shoes industry&#39;s 6.5% decline. This impressive growth is driven by the company&#39;s strategic initiatives, such as AI-powered inventory management, pricing optimization, margin expansion, enhanced client engagement and improved cost efficiency.
These efforts have enabled Stitch Fix to outperform both the broader Retail-Wholesale sector and the S&amp;P 500 index, which saw growth of 2.6% and 5.9%, respectively, in the same period. This impressive uptick has left many investors wondering if they missed out on a lucrative opportunity or if there is still potential for growth. Closing at $3.46 as of Sept. 6, the SFIX stock is inching toward its 52-week high of $5.05 attained on July 16, 2024.
Technical indicators are supportive of Stitch Fix&#39;s strong performance.

This technical strength reflects positive market perception and confidence in SFIX&#39;s financial health and prospects.
From a valuation perspective, the stock presents an attractive opportunity, trading at a discount relative to historical and industry benchmarks. With a forward 12-month price-to-sales ratio of 0.33, below the five-year median of 0.54 and the industry&#39;s average of 1.04, the stock offers compelling value for investors seeking exposure to the sector. The stock currently has a Value Score of A, further validating its appeal.

<h2>Stitch Fix&#39;s Strategic Moves to Drive Growth</h2>
Stitch Fix continues to fuel its growth by leveraging AI and data analytics, which have become central to the company&#39;s operations. A key driver of this success is the implementation of an AI-driven inventory buying tool, now responsible for nearly half of all inventory decisions, significantly boosting efficiency compared to traditional methods. This strategic application of AI highlights Stitch Fix&#39;s commitment to innovating business processes and maintaining a competitive edge.
The introduction of Quick Fixes, a feature that allows clients to schedule an additional fix immediately after checkout, has led to a 25% increase in average order value within three weeks, showcasing the company&#39;s agility in meeting client needs. Additionally, a comprehensive review of pricing architecture has resulted in adjustments expected to generate more than $20 million in annualized contribution profit, aligning prices with the value offered and enhancing profitability.
Stitch Fix has also made significant strides in margin expansion and operational efficiency. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the company reported a 280-basis-point year-over-year increase in gross margin, reaching 45.5%. This improvement was driven by strong product margins and better transportation leverage, reflecting the company&#39;s strategic focus on optimizing pricing and inventory management.
Enhancing the client experience remains a top priority for Stitch Fix. The company has introduced more dynamic and personalized interactions, such as increasing the number of items in each fix, refining discount strategies and improving the onboarding process. These initiatives have already delivered promising results, with higher average order values and improved retention metrics, indicating strong client satisfaction and loyalty.
The launch of Stitch Fix Freestyle has created a unique shopping experience, allowing customers to discover and purchase curated items based on their style preferences, fit and size, without the need for a Fix first. This initiative is part of the company&#39;s broader strategy to expand its client base and achieve long-term profitability.
On the marketing front, Stitch Fix is refining its strategy to prioritize liquidity preservation and profitability by focusing on high-lifetime-value clients. The company is also restructuring its operations, including consolidating U.S. warehouse locations from five to three and successfully divesting its U.K. operations, further aligning SFIX&#39;s business for sustained growth.
<h2>Declining Active Client Base: A Major Hurdle of SFIX</h2>
The reduction in the active client base in the past eight quarters has been a major concern and is the primary factor behind the company&#39;s revenue decline. In the third quarter of fiscal 2024, the number of active clients involved in ongoing operations fell to 2,633,000, representing a 20% year-over-year decrease.
Consequently, the company&#39;s revenues dropped 15.8% in the fiscal third quarter. This persistent decline in sales indicates ongoing challenges in client retention and acquisition, possibly indicating deeper issues related to product appeal or increased market competition.
<h2>Conclusion</h2>
Investors may consider SFIX stock due to its strong recovery momentum, bolstered by innovative AI-driven inventory management and pricing strategies, which have significantly improved efficiency, margins and client engagement.
Despite a decline in the active client base, the stock&#39;s value appeal is evident in its low price-to-sales ratio and outperforming industry benchmarks, combined with technical indicators showing robust price stability. This makes SFIX an attractive option for those seeking exposure to a company leveraging advanced analytics for growth. The company&#39;s focus on operational efficiency and profitability further enhances its investment potential. Stitch Fix currently carries a Zacks Rank #3 (Hold).

<h2>Insight Into BURL&#39;s Margins</h2>
The gross margin was 42.8%, up 110 basis points (bps) from second-quarter fiscal 2023. We expected the gross margin to increase 60 bps year over year. The merchandise margin expanded 90 bps due to lower markdowns. Freight expenses improved 20 bps year over year driven by lower freight rates and cost savings initiatives.
Adjusted selling, general and administrative (SG&amp;A) expenses rose 13.7% year over year to $667.1 million. Adjusted SG&amp;A expenses, as a rate of sales, was 27.1%, up 10 bps from second-quarter fiscal 2023. We estimated adjusted SG&amp;A expenses to grow 9.6% year over year in the second quarter.
Product sourcing costs were $192 million, up from $183 million in the year-ago quarter. This is due to supply-chain expense leverage from continued progress on the company&#39;s distribution center productivity initiatives.
Adjusted EBITDA increased 43.3% from the second quarter of fiscal 2023 to $201.8 million. The adjusted EBITDA margin increased 170 bps to 8.2%.

<h2>An Update on Burlington Stores&#39; Fleet of Stores</h2>
In the fiscal second quarter, Burlington Stores expanded its presence significantly by opening 36 net new stores, bringing the total to 1,057 locations by the end of the quarter. The company also relocated four older, oversized stores as part of its ongoing efforts to optimize its store base.
BURL is on track to open approximately 100 net new stores and relocate around 30 locations in fiscal 2024. Sales of the new stores are exceeding the company&#39;s expectations, which typically target about $7 million in sales for the first full year of operation. This expansion strategy is a central part of Burlington&#39;s growth plan as it continues to build out its store network across the United States.
<h2>BURL&#39;s Financial Snapshot: Cash, Debt and Equity Overview</h2>
The company ended the reported quarter with cash and cash equivalents of $659.9 million, long-term debt of $1.23 billion and stockholders&#39; equity of $1.07 billion. BURL exited the fiscal second quarter with $1.48 billion of liquidity, including $660 million of unrestricted cash and $816 million available under its ABL facility.
Burlington Stores ended the quarter with $1.40 billion of outstanding total debt, comprising $929 million under its term-loan facility, $453 million of convertible notes and no borrowings under its ABL facility.
The company bought back 269,508 shares for $61 million under its share repurchase plan in the fiscal second quarter. As of Aug 3., 2024, BURL had $380 million remaining under its current share repurchase authorization.
<h2>BURL&#39;s Fiscal 2024 Guidance</h2>
For the fiscal third quarter, the company anticipates a 10-12% increase in total sales. This projection is based on an expected 0-2% increase in comparable store sales from the year-ago quarter. The adjusted EBIT margin is expected to improve 60-80 bps year over year in the third quarter.
The company estimates an adjusted effective tax rate of approximately 25%. Additionally, it forecasts adjusted earnings per share to be in the range of $1.45-$1.55, up from adjusted EPS of $1.10 (which excludes $7 million, net of tax, of expenses related to the acquired Bed Bath &amp; Beyond leases) in the year-ago period.
For the fiscal fourth quarter, the outlook indicates comparable store sales to remain flat or grow up to 2%. Total sales are expected to increase between 5% and 7%. EBIT margins are anticipated to decrease in the band of 50-80 bps. EPS is projected to be in the range of $3.55-$3.75. It&#39;s important to note that the shift to a 53rd week in the fiscal year is anticipated to have a significant negative impact on total sales, adjusted EBIT and adjusted EPS for the fourth quarter.
The company&#39;s revised projections for fiscal 2024 indicate a more optimistic outlook compared with previous estimates. Total sales are now expected increase in the band of 9-10%, slightly higher than the earlier estimated 8-10%. Comparable store sales are now expected to grow in the range of 2-3%, an improvement from the previous estimate of 0-2%, indicating stronger expected performance at individual stores. In terms of profitability, the adjusted EBIT margin is projected to increase in the range of 50-70 bps, which is slightly more favorable than the previous estimated range of 40-60 bps.
The forecast for adjusted EPS has also been revised upward and is now expected to be in the range of $7.66-$7.96 compared with the earlier estimate of $7.35-$7.75. This indicates stronger overall profitability. Both projections exclude expenses associated with the acquired Bed Bath &amp; Beyond leases.
In fiscal 2024, management intends a capital expenditure, net of landlord allowances, of $750 million. Net interest expenses are expected to be $40 million whereas the adjusted effective tax rate is likely to be 26%.
Over the past three months, this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company has gained 11.3% compared with the industry&#39;s 7.7% growth.

Large Cap

Burlington Stores' Q2 Earnings Beat Estimates, Fiscal 2024 Outlook Raised

G-III Apparel Group, Ltd. (NASDAQ: <a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/giii#NASDAQ">GIII</a>) is strategically positioned for continued growth and profitability through its aggressive digital and omnichannel expansion, strong performance in wholesale and retail segments and significant partnerships such as the one with AWWG. The company&#39;s focus on enhancing its European presence, reducing reliance on PVH brands and targeting high-growth markets like India and China is likely to drive success.
With a solid financial foundation, robust brand performance and a commitment to strategic marketing and cost management, G-III Apparel is well-equipped to meet the company&#39;s fiscal 2025 targets and sustain its positive trajectory in the apparel industry.
Driven by these factors, G-III Apparel has showcased impressive resilience in the past year, with its shares gaining 40.1%. This growth contrasts sharply with the 3.8% decline in the Zacks Textile - Apparel industry. GIII&#39;s operational prowess has also helped it outperform the broader Zacks Consumer Discretionary sector and the S&amp;P 500&#39;s respective growth of 7.8% and 26.7%.&nbsp; 
Additionally, the stock currently has a Value Score of A, thus further validating its appeal.

<h2>Strategic Growth and Expansion Initiatives by GIII Apparel</h2>
G-III Apparel is swiftly advancing its digital and omnichannel growth strategies with the goal of becoming a leading omnichannel entity. A key aspect of this strategy is enhancing its digital footprint through upgrades to the DKNY and Karl Lagerfeld Paris e-commerce platforms. These updates include modernized designs, revamped loyalty programs, expanded CRM capabilities and advanced technical operations.
G-III Apparel is broadening its presence in Europe by utilizing AWWG&#39;s infrastructure in Spain and Portugal. The company has increased its stake in AWWG from 12% to around 19%. Furthermore, AWWG&#39;s strong market presence in India provides additional growth opportunities for GIII&#39;s brands.
In North America, GIII is revamping its retail operations with significant marketing investments aimed at enhancing global brand awareness and sales. This plan involves decreasing dependence on PVH brands and focusing on expanding market presence in high-growth areas like India and China. This fall, the company plans to add more than 2,500 retail points of sale in major department stores, which is anticipated to drive substantial sales growth.
In terms of performance, G-III Apparel experienced significant growth in the first quarter of fiscal 2025, with wholesale segment net sales rising to $598 million and retail segment net sales increasing to $31 million despite store closures.
<h2>GIII&#39;s Brand Success Boosting Fiscal 2025 Sales Guidance</h2>
G-III Apparel has made notable progress in brand development and marketing, with DKNY achieving impressive double-digit sales growth in the fiscal first quarter, thanks to effective marketing campaigns and strategic partnerships, including one with the New York Yankees. The brand&#39;s international expansion has been further supported by pop-up events in Europe.
Karl Lagerfeld also experienced significant growth in North America, nearly 50%, bolstered by the expansion of its distribution network to 500 locations and the launch of the sustainable Karl Lagerfeld Jeans line. The successful relaunch of Donna Karan is marked by high average unit retail prices, improved sell-through rates and increased retailer margins. Marketing campaigns featuring Cindy Crawford and Karlie Kloss have enhanced consumer engagement.
As a result of these developments, G-III Apparel has confirmed its fiscal 2025 net sales guidance at $3.2 billion, indicating a 3% year-over-year increase. This optimistic forecast is supported by strong brand performance, strategic marketing investments and effective cost management.
<h2>Shifting Consumer Spending- a Key Hurdle of G-III Apparel</h2>
However, this Zacks Rank #3 (Hold) company faces challenges in the current operating environment. Fluctuating consumer confidence, influenced by inflationary pressures, has shifted spending patterns, with consumers focusing more on essential purchases over discretionary items. This shift may negatively impact the company&#39;s performance in the near term.
For the fiscal second quarter, the company anticipates adjusted net income between $10-$15 million and adjusted earnings in the band of 22-32 cents per share. The anticipated figures are down from the adjusted net income of $18.6 million and adjusted earnings of 40 cents per share reported in the second quarter of fiscal 2024.
Despite current challenges, GIII&#39;s strategic focus on e-commerce, global expansion and strengthening its brands is expected to navigate the business landscape effectively. With investments in digital innovation, market growth in Europe and India and extensive marketing in North America, G-III Apparel is well-positioned for robust growth and long-term investor value.

G-III Apparel Gains From Digital Expansion, Strategic Partnership

U.S. retail sales made a solid rebound in July, following a decline in June and after struggling for most of the year. Although price pressures continue, it has decreased substantially over the past few months, which allowed consumers to spend freely last month.
<h3>Retail Sales Soar Past Expectations</h3>
The Commerce Department said on Aug 15 that retail sales grew a solid 1% in July, following a 0.2% decline in June and ahead of the consensus estimate of a rise of 0.3%.
Retail sales, excluding gasoline, food, building materials and automobiles rose 0.3% in July after increasing 0.9% in June. Year over year, retail sales jumped 2.7% in the previous month, while total sales from May through July advanced 2.4% from the year-ago levels.
July&#39;s jump was driven by a solid 3.6% jump in sales at motor vehicles and auto parts dealers. Sales at electronics and appliance stores rose 1.6% in July. Sales at food and beverage outlets rose 0.9%.
Online sales increased 0.2% in July after increasing 2.2% in June. Amazon.com, Inc&#39;s&nbsp;Prime Day was largely responsible for the jump in online sales. Also, back-to-school shopping gave a boost to overall retail sales.
Resilient consumer spending saw retail sales grow in July, which could alleviate fears of a recession that were triggered earlier this month following a disappointing jobs report and a spike in the unemployment rate.
Inflation has been declining over the past quarter, with the consumer price index reading increasing marginally in July.
Year over year, CPI increased 2.9% in July, lower than June&#39;s jump of 3%. This was also the lowest pace of increase since March 2021.
A solid retail sales report coupled with softer inflation data has raised hopes that the Federal Reserve will finally start rate cuts in September. Lower interest rates bode well for the retail sector and the broader economy as it will give consumers more purchasing power.
