FL

Telsey Advisory Group analyst Cristina Fernández maintained an Outperform rating on Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE:FL) and raised the price target from $22 to $31. The company's Q3 2023 results and revised guidance indicate stable trends, with no worsening as seen with other retailers. Foot Locker's promotional activities were anticipated in previous guidance and are not due to a soft consumer environment. The company is receiving vendor support to clear inventory and expects to end the year with inventory levels flat or slightly down. Sales trends improved through Q3, with a strong Black Friday weekend. Strategic initiatives, including the growth of strategic brands and community and power stores, are progressing. However, there is uncertainty for 2024 regarding inventory management and margin recovery. The analyst projects a lower EPS for 2023 and 2024, with operating margin compression in 2023 and a slight decrease in operating margin projection for 2024. FL shares dropped by 1.34% to $27.30.
