Keybanc analyst Noah Zatzkin analyzed the Leisure &amp; Performance Brands ahead of the first-quarter earnings.
The analyst remains cautious ahead of the first-quarter FY25 earnings, citing continued weakness in consumer demand across retail and leisure markets. 
Recent channel checks from February and March revealed sluggish conditions, prompting widespread estimate and price target reductions across the leisure sector.

Concerns have intensified due to recent tariff policy uncertainty, which is expected to further dampen demand, especially for big-ticket discretionary items, said the analyst.
To account for this shifting landscape, the analyst reassessed risk related to tariffs, liquidity, leverage, and covenant exposure across the sector. 
While the situation remains fluid, current policies are expected to directly affect earnings and dampen overall demand. 
Most companies issued cautious and conservative first-quarter guidance, anticipating a slow start to the year.
Expecting many firms to revise or withdraw forward guidance due to ongoing macroeconomic uncertainty and tariff concerns, Zatzkin adds.
Estimates for the following stocks were revised downward: Brunswick Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/BC#NYSE">BC</a>), Acushnet Holdings Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GOLF#NYSE">GOLF</a>), Garmin Ltd (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GRMN#NYSE">GRMN</a>), Harley-Davidson Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOG#NYSE">HOG</a>), Topgolf Callaway Brands Corp (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MODG#NYSE">MODG</a>), OneWater Marine Inc (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ONEW#NASDAQ">ONEW</a>), and Polaris Inc (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PII#NYSE">PII</a>).

The secretive company has raised at least $111 million in a Series A round to fund the creation of a two-seat electric pickup truck priced around $25,000, according to a<a href="https://www.sec.gov/Archives/edgar/data/1979776/000182224723000002/xslFormDX01/primary_doc.xml"> public filing</a>.
<h2 class="wp-block-heading">How Slate Auto Quietly Got Its Start Inside Re:Build Manufacturing</h2>
Slate Auto launched in 2022 inside Re:Build Manufacturing, a company connected to Bezos' network. It has been flying under the radar, quietly hiring hundreds of employees, many of whom have worked at Ford (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), General Motors (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>), Stellantis (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/STLA#NYSE">STLA</a>), and Harley-Davidson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOG#NYSE">HOG</a>). Slate has also attracted other marquee investors, including Mark Walter, controlling owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, and Thomas Tull, an early investor in Re:Build Manufacturing, TechCrunch reported.

<ul>
<li>Hasbro, MGM, and Skechers trust this AI marketing firm — <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/rad-intel">invest pre-IPO from $0.60 per share now</a>.</li>
<li>Inspired by Uber and Airbnb &#8211; Deloitte's fastest-growing software company is transforming 7 billion smartphones into income-generating assets &#8211; <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/mode-mobile-2">with $1,000 you can invest at just $0.26/share!</a></li>
</ul>
The company's mission is ambitious. The anonymous sources cited by TechCrunch say Slate leaders often point to the Ford Model T and Volkswagen Beetle as inspiration, hoping to build a vehicle that could become a "first car" for many buyers.
Slate also aims to sell a line of accessories and apparel to go with the small margins of its low-cost truck, a strategy that will be familiar to Harley-Davidson and Jeep-maker Stellantis veterans, many of whom have now taken up residence in Slate's executive ranks.
Christine Barman, Slate's CEO, and a longtime Chrysler veteran, is leading the company with a steady hand. In an interview with<a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=suWI0mnXMk8&amp;ab_channel=careergirls"> Career Girls</a>, Barman reflected on her career path, saying, "I love the fact that I can take something from a concept and see it all the way through to production and then see it on the road."

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">The Big Money Behind Slate Auto's $111 Million Fundraise</h2>
Slate's Series A fundraising included investments from Bezos' family office, overseen by Melinda Lewison, who is listed as a director in company filings. According to<a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/08/inside-the-ev-startup-secretly-backed-by-jeff-bezos/"> TechCrunch</a>, the company has authorized hundreds of millions of preferred and common shares, hinting at even larger funding rounds ahead. Although specific amounts invested by Bezos have not been disclosed, documents show his direct participation with other wealthy individuals.
Slate plans to start production as soon as late 2026 at a facility near Indianapolis, according to<a href="https://www.linkedin.com/jobs/view/network-engineer-at-slate-4170199472/"> employment ads</a> and an<a href="https://uwalumni.com/news/the-electric-revolution-the-uw-now-livestream-looks-at-the-future-of-evs/"> interview with Executive Chairman Rodney Copes</a>. It remains unclear whether the company will build a new factory or repurpose an existing one.
The startup has also discreetly shown a proof-of-concept vehicle to investors at a rented design studio in Long Beach, California. With a marketing slogan already patented — "WE BUILT IT. YOU MAKE IT." — Slate points to an emphasis on customer personalization and aftermarket upgrades.
The timing is bold. The EV industry has cooled after years of explosive development, with many startups going bust and others hemorrhaging billions to stay alive. Instead of cloning Tesla's high-end-first model, Slate is inverting that script and aiming for the affordable market from the start.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Slate Auto Is Tapping Into Amazon's Talent Playbook</h2>
Slate's DNA is intertwined with deep Amazon ties. In addition to Bezos' investment, the project is backed by former Amazon (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) executives, such as Diego Piacentini, according to<a href="https://viewdifferent.io/portfolio/re-car/"> his site</a>. Slate's e-commerce and digital teams are largely comprised of Amazon expats, and this only deepens the connection.
Instead of adopting the brashness typical of many buzzy EV start-ups, Slate is taking a more grounded approach. Re:Build Manufacturing's chief executive officer, Miles Arnone, is seen as Slate's founder. However, Slate is run by Barman, who has kept a low profile, focusing on developing a product that might silently disrupt the game.
Armed with deep pockets, top-tier automotive talent, and a different playbook, Slate Auto could be the stealth giant that revolutionizes the electric vehicle market.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.

North Carolina Rep. Tim Moore Sold Over $365K Worth of American Airlines Group Stock: Here's What You Should Know

Jeff Bezos is reportedly backing a Michigan-based all-electric mobility startup, Slate Auto, with a goal of developing a cheap single-cab EV truck to take on the likes of Tesla Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/TSLA#NASDAQ">TSLA</a>) and Rivian Automotive Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/RIVN#NASDAQ">RIVN</a>).
What happened: A report published <a href="https://techcrunch.com/2025/04/08/inside-the-ev-startup-secretly-backed-by-jeff-bezos/">by</a> TechCrunch shared that the company is backed by Amazon.com Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AMZN#NASDAQ">AMZN</a>) founder Jeff Bezos. The report said that Slate Auto has brought in people from the likes of Ford Motor Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/F#NYSE">F</a>), Harley-Davidson Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOG#NYSE">HOG</a>), and General Motors Co. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GM#NYSE">GM</a>).
Slate Auto has set a target of developing a &#8220;cheap&#8221; $25,000 single-cab EV truck, and plans to enter the production phase by late 2026.

As news of the Bezos-backed startup hit the wires, a post on social media platform Reddit in the r/whatisthiscar subreddit surfaced, which showcased what looked like a small EV truck in dark grey being transported on a flatbed truck. The truck features round headlights, upright B-pillars, and steel wheels.
<figure class="wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-reddit wp-block-embed-reddit">

<script async src="https://embed.reddit.com/widgets.js" charset="UTF-8"></script></div>
</figure>
It was later confirmed that the truck was Slate Auto's concept car. According to the report, the company is looking to manufacture its vehicles in a plant in Indianapolis, Indiana. The design of Slate Auto's concept car is somewhat reminiscent of the old-school Ford Ranger.
Why it matters: The news comes in at a time when the US auto sector is dealing with a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44756759/new-research-shows-donald-trumps-25-tariffs-could-cost-auto-companies-108billion-report">25% import tariff</a> levied by the Donald Trump administration, much to the <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44729157/michigan-auto-groups-criticize-trump-for-not-halting-auto-tariffs">criticism of stakeholders</a> within the auto industry.

Delaney pointed out that Rivian may face risks from reduced U.S. EV policy support.
EV trucks in the U.S. from the likes of Tesla, GM, Ford, and Rivian currently retail in the approximate price range of $47,000 &#8211; $105,000. However, a cheap EV truck would certainly broaden the sector's appeal and could potentially disrupt the segment as well.
EV companies are looking to release cheaper variants of their EV trucks in a bid to broaden the product&#8217;s appeal, with Tesla most recently releasing an <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44755221/tesla-unveils-new-cybertruck-long-range-trim-with-a-362-mile-range-and-reduced-features">RWD, long-range variant</a> of its Cybertruck.

Musk's Warning, Harley-Davidson's Boardroom Drama, Tesla's New Trim, EV Sales Surge, And More: This Week In Mobility

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
Harley-Davidson (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOG#NYSE">HOG</a>) is <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/auction">selling its financing arm</a>. 
Bloomberg <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-10/harley-davidson-said-to-mull-1-billion-plus-sale-of-finance-arm?srnd=phx-deals&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">estimates</a> a price tag of $1 billion. The Milwaukee-based motorcycle brand could market the segment to various buyers, including regional banks and private equity firms. 
Separately, there&#8217;s drama brewing on the board level. Director Jared Dourdeville, who joined in 2022, resigned, but not before sending a damning letter to fellow board members on April 1. And it was not an April Fool&#8217;s Day prank. 
Dourdeville called for several of his colleagues to resign and expressed &#8220;grave concerns about the current state of the company.&#8221;

Harley-Davidson shares, at last check, were up over 2.6% at $22.05. 
Other auctions to note:
<ul>
<li>Clessidra Private Equity is mulling a potential sale of Milan-based software firm Impresoft, which could fetch around 800 million euros ($885 million), according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-10/italy-s-clessidra-weighs-sale-of-software-firm-impresoft?sref=TBDibEcD">to</a> Bloomberg.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates From The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Capri Holdings (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/CPRI#NYSE">CPRI</a>) confirmed it's selling Versace to Prada for a high-end price of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/04/44738776/versace-goes-prada-capris-big-exit-sparks-fashion-power-shift">$1.375 billion in cash</a>. The deal marks a luxe exit for the iconic brand founded by Gianni. It was last helmed by Donatella, who recently handed creative control to Miu Miu alum Dario Vitale. CEO John Idol said the move will help Capri tighten its belt and focus on brands like Michael Kors and Jimmy Choo. But the sale feels less glamorous considering Capri's stock has lost over 62% in the past year. With net debt at $1.12 billion and shares already bruised by tariff turmoil, this windfall might finally help the company strut into better financial shape.

Shares of companies in the braoder consumer discretionary sector are trading lower as stocks pull back after surging Wednesday following President Trump's tariff pause announcement.

A director representing Harley-Davidson Inc.&#8216;s (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/HOG#NYSE">HOG</a>) significant shareholder has resigned from the company&#8217;s board, leveling serious accusations against CEO Jochen Zeitz and other leaders amid ongoing financial challenges for the motorcycle manufacturer.
What Happened: Jared Dourdeville of New York investment firm H Partners, which holds 9.1% of Harley&#8217;s stock according to a 13D form filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission, submitted his resignation in a <a href="https://d18rn0p25nwr6d.cloudfront.net/CIK-0000793952/c1fc334a-2ec3-4dba-bc96-394c6851eda1.pdf">letter</a> dated Saturday. 
Before resigning, Dourdeville had called for the immediate resignation of Zeitz, who serves as both CEO and chairman, along with directors Sara Levinson and Tom Linebarger.
Dourdeville accused company leadership of decisions that damaged the iconic brand, citing &#8220;cultural depletion&#8221; from extensive white-collar work-from-home policies and the departure of many senior leaders. 
The company announced Tuesday that Zeitz plans to retire as CEO but will remain in the position until a successor is chosen.

Why It Matters: This leadership dispute comes amid challenging financial performance. In February, Harley reported a 34.7% revenue decline to $687.61 million in the fourth quarter of 2024, with global retail motorcycle sales falling 15%. CEO Zeitz cited &#8220;continued cyclical headwinds&#8221; and high interest rates <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/25/02/43502533/harley-davidson-q4-earnings-struggles-with-sales-drop-but-new-touring-models-boost-market-share">affecting consumer confidence</a>.
Harley&#8217;s newly launched touring models have also boosted its U.S. market share to 74.5% in the touring segment for fiscal 2024.
Harley-Davidson has a <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/HOG/analyst-ratings">consensus price target</a> of $35.18 from 11 analysts, with a high of $45 and a low of $26. The latest ratings from DA Davidson, Baird, and Citigroup average a $28.33 target, implying a 19.25% upside.

Harley-Davidson&#8217;s stock rose 13.74%, trading at $23.68 on Wednesday, after President Donald Trump announced a pause on wide-ranging tariffs. 
Harley-Davidson stock may lag on momentum, but it outperforms key rivals Polaris Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/PII#NYSE">PII</a>) and its former electric division LiveWire Group Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/LVWR#NYSE">LVWR</a>), according to Benzinga Edge Stock Ranking.

<h2>The Core of Analyst Ratings: What Every Investor Should Know</h2>
Benzinga tracks 150 analyst firms and reports on their stock expectations. Analysts typically arrive at their conclusions by predicting how much money a company will make in the future, usually the upcoming five years, and how risky or predictable that company's revenue streams are.
Analysts attend company conference calls and meetings, research company financial statements, and communicate with insiders to publish their ratings on stocks. Analysts typically rate each stock once per quarter or whenever the company has a major update.
Some analysts also offer predictions for helpful metrics such as earnings, revenue, and growth estimates to provide further guidance as to what to do with certain tickers. It is important to keep in mind that while stock and sector analysts are specialists, they are also human and can only forecast their beliefs to traders.

<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
A congressional transaction is when any representative or senator either buys or sells an individual stock.
Anyone working in Congress must file a Periodic Transaction Report to inform the public of their recent transaction within 30 days of being notified of the transaction and within 45 days of the transaction date.
In April 2012, Former President Barack Obama signed the STOCK Act into law. The act prohibits members of Congress from using private information given to them by their position for personal gain such as buying or selling a stock. The act also expanded disclosure requirements for members of Congress by requiring them to file a monthly disclosure.
<h3>Why Congressional Transactions Matter</h3>
Congressional transactions shouldn't be the primary reason for an investing decision, but they can be an important factor for an investor to consider.
When a senator or representative makes a new purchase, it could be an indication they expect the stock to rise.
A sale, on the other hand, can be made for a variety of reasons, and may not necessarily mean the seller thinks the stock will go down.
