Steven Madden (SHOO) Analyst Ratings
Bulls say
Steven Madden Ltd has demonstrated robust growth potential, with an anticipated revenue increase of 17%-19% year-over-year, bolstered by the acquisition of Almost Famous and strong performance in the wholesale accessories/apparel segment, which surged by 54.2% to $196.4 million. The company's focus on international expansion is evident, as it expects mid-teen growth in this sector, particularly with the EMEA region projected to rise over 20%. Additionally, the consistent increase in international revenue from 11% in 2019 to approximately 19% of total revenues by Q3 highlights the successful execution of Steven Madden's growth strategy and solidifies a positive outlook for the company's financial performance.
Bears say
The financial outlook for Steven Madden Ltd is concerning due to an expected decline of 30%-35% in EPS for Q1 year-over-year, attributed to a difficult comparison period and increased marketing expenditures. The wholesale footwear segment, which constitutes a majority of the company's revenue, reported a 2.2% decline, while the overall forecast for FY25 EPS has been revised down to $2.35 from a previous estimate of $2.89, indicating a deterioration in financial performance. Furthermore, challenges in the wholesale environment, pressures within the accessories business, and declining consumer confidence suggest that growth in both apparel and accessories may be slower than anticipated, contributing to a cautious outlook for the company.
