- 1. Guggenheim analysts commented, "We note Ms. Gass has played a key part in many of the decisions made over the past few years. We remain BUY-rated and increase our PT to $85 from $75 on the improved macro and fundamental outlook." (6/8/2018)
- 2. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Kohl’s shares have surpassed the industry in the past year, courtesy of effective sales-driving initiatives. Such efforts benefitted the company’s comps during first-quarter fiscal 2018, driving top-line performance. In fact, such efforts have been aiding positive comps growth since the past three quarters. Moreover, sturdy comps indicate that Greatness Agenda initiative is yielding results. Further, Kohl’s has been undertaking merchandising initiatives to reduce inventory levels and boost margins. The company has also been expanding its e-commerce fulfillment centers to support growing online business. These upsides encouraged management to raise earnings view for fiscal 2018. However, Kohl’s has been incurring higher SG&A costs for a while and expects the same to rise in the bracket of 1-2% during fiscal 2018. Additionally, changing consumer spending habits is a threat."
