American Eagle Outfitters: Rating Upgrade As Valuation Has Come Down

Upgraded American Eagle Outfitters to a buy rating, expecting ~7% returns due to strong SSSG and attractive valuation. 2Q24 earnings showed solid performance with $1.29 billion in net sales and a 4% SSSG, indicating potential for strong top-line growth in 2H24. Valuation at 5x forward EBITDA presents a tactical opportunity, with expected EBIT margin expansion in 2H24 likely to drive stock re-rating.
