What are Wall Street analysts saying about Genesco stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Genesco stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Genesco Inc., a Nashville-based specialty retailer, sells footwear, headwear and accessories in retail stores in the United States and Canada. The Company sells its products principally under the names Journeys, Journeys Kidz, Shi by Journeys, Johnston & Murphy, Underground Station, Hatworld, Lids, Hat Shack, Hat Zone, Head Quarters and Cap Connection, and on internet websites. The Company also sells footwear at wholesale under its Johnston & Murphy brand and under the licensed Dockers brand. " (7/31/2019)
- 2. Pivotal Research analysts commented, "We’re shocked by how well 1Q turned out, especially for Journeys, given that 1Q was not the best quarter for many retailers. In retrospect, we should’ve been less bearish going into this print as TLYS posted a +LDD% footwear comp earlier this week, and there’s some footwear overlap between the two companies, namely Vans. GCO’s shares were deservedly up 10%+ on the print. But the question at hand is where do they go from here? Given the material 1Q outperformance at Journeys, we suspect that there’s upside to the 2Q guidance, but it is a more difficult comparison, and comparisons remain challenging over the balance of the year, with the back half a bigger question mark in our view on strong boot sales last year, which is a highly weather-dependent category."
