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, "Despite dismal top and bottom lines in third-quarter fiscal 2019, Hibbett delivered positive comps backed by significant improvement in branded apparel business. Footwear and sportswear businesses also aided comps growth. Further, the company raised comps guidance for fiscal 2019. Further, the company’s focus on enhancing omni-channel capabilities, renewing loyalty program and inventory management initiatives bodes well. It expects continued growth in the e-commerce business as mobile app enhancements, and the recently launched BOPIS and ROPIS capabilities are delivering results. However, Hibbett lagged the industry year to date due to a dismal surprise history. It reported third straight earnings miss in fiscal third quarter, while sales were almost in line with estimates. The company’s soft margins trend in the last few quarters has also been a concern. Further, a lowered earnings view for fiscal 2019 is disheartening." (11/30/2018)
- 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)."
