Carter's Q3 Disappointed And The Stock Is At A Decade Low, But Only Fairly Valued
Carter's, Inc.'s Q3 2024 results showed a 4% sales decline, with aggressive pricing strategies impacting margins; a challenging Q4 is expected with further sales declines. Despite a 15% stock drop post-earnings, I maintain a Hold rating due to ongoing challenges and an insufficient yield to entice investment. Wholesale volumes grew, driven by Amazon and Walmart, but retail remains pressured; discounting risks long-term margin deterioration.
