What are Wall Street analysts saying about Hibbett Sports stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Hibbett Sports stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Hibbett lagged the industry in the past three months due to unimpressive results in the first half of fiscal 2019. In the second quarter, the company reported loss per share and lower-than-expected sales. Higher SG&A expenses primarily impacted the bottom line. Further, softness in the license, equipment and accessory businesses hurt results. Additionally, the company’s soft margins trend in the last few quarters has been a concern. Though the company’s gross margin expanded after softness in seven quarters, it reported operating loss owing to higher SG&A expenses. Driven by the dismal first-half results, management trimmed its guidance for fiscal 2019. However, Hibbett remains focused on enhancing its omni-channel capabilities, renewing loyalty program and inventory management initiatives. Also, the company is witnessing significant improvement in its branded apparel and footwear categories, which is encouraging." (10/5/2018)
- 2. Canaccord Genuity analysts commented, "We are buyers of HIBB heading into FQ2 results on Friday, August 24 BMO. Our 9c EPS estimate is 2c ahead of consensus as we are modeling slightly higher revenue growth of +15.4% on +6% comp (vs. +14% consensus on +6% comp), higher gross margin of 31.6% (vs. 31.4% consensus) and lower SG&A margin of 27.3% (vs. 27.9% consensus) relative to the Street. We believe our recovery thesis is well on track and Q2 will be reflective of this progress. Our industry checks and discussions with management indicate that the inventory mix continued to improve in Q2, which should translate into a significant upward comp inflection (on an easy -11.7% comparison) and strong gross margin recapture (vs. -400bps)."
