American Eagle Outfitters: FY25 Should Be A Better Year
I maintain a buy rating for American Eagle Outfitters stock, expecting $738 million in EBITDA for FY25. Despite a disappointing 4Q24 EBIT guide, underlying demand remains strong, with one-off headwinds like FX and hurricanes impacting results. Positive demand trends and strong holiday season performance suggest AEO will meet or exceed its FY24 guidance, supported by Bloomberg alternative data.
