Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Carter's stock:

• 1. FBR & Co analysts commented, "We looked at the potential impact to CRI revenues due to Amazon and Skip Hop for 2017 and conclude that 2017 guidance is conservative with little upside included for both growth initiatives. We believe this provides a cushion to CRI guidance if traditional wholesale (dept stores, mass) is worse than expected (which we do not expect based on strong 1Q replenishment), and potential upside opportunity if the 1Q trends continue the rest of the year. CRI stock has been pressured by concerns over exposure to dept stores, but we believe this weakness is more than offset with Amazon/Skip Hop growth. Additionally, we believe 2Q is trending significantly better than 1Q based on solid spendtrend data for children’s (avg +6% in April/May) vs. -2.5% in 1Q17. We expect CRI to see multiple/stock expansion (CRI -15% over past year vs. SP500 +17%), as we believe CRI will report a strong 2Q (late July)." (6/16/2017)
