What are Wall Street analysts saying about Ralph Lauren stock?
Here are some recent quotes from research analysts about Ralph Lauren stock:
- 1. According to Zacks Investment Research, "Ralph Lauren outperformed the sector year to date due to an impressive surprise trend. Fourth-quarter fiscal 2019 marked the company’s 17th straight earnings beat, backed by solid execution of key initiatives including the “Next Great Chapter” plan. Management stated that the strategy started off well in its first year and will continue to drive the company’s performance going ahead. Moreover, sales topped estimates for fifth straight quarter backed by robust top-line growth in Asia and Europe, offset by decline in revenues at North America. Based on its efforts to focus on consumer demands, elevate brands, and balance growth and productivity, management is confident about Ralph Lauren’s performance. However, the North America unit continues to suffer due to soft traffic and a challenging wholesale business on planned reduction of off-price sales. Currency headwinds are also likely to mar sales growth in fiscal 2020." (5/20/2019)
