Guess? shares are trading higher after Small Cap Consumer Research and Telsey Advisory Group maintained their respective price targets on the stock.

On Thursday, Guess? Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) reported a 15% increase in its inventory, driven by ongoing supply chain disruptions and plans to streamline its stock once these issues subside.
What Happened: During the company's first-quarter earnings, the retailer explained that the inventory buildup, which includes both dollars and constant currency, was largely intentional.&nbsp;
CEO Carlos Alberini explained it was part of their strategy to deal with supply chain challenges, especially with inventory coming into Europe from Asia. These challenges were exacerbated by the Red Sea crisis, which disrupted supply chains.
&#8220;We have been aggressive in bringing product early, even if that represented a need for an additional investment and we are happy with it," he stated.
Alberini went on to add that while they expected to streamline inventory ownership over time, the increase in inventory was necessary to support the business.

Over the medium term, Guess? plans to reduce inventory ownership, particularly as supply chain issues, like long transit times, normalize.
CFO Dennis R. Secor added that the company has invested about $50 million in working capital to improve cash flow.
While this investment was necessary to maintain reliable product delivery, especially in light of the supply chain challenges, they expect to reclaim that cash once the supply chain situation improves.
Why It&#8217;s Important: Guess? Inc. reported its first-quarter earnings with total revenue reaching $648 million, marking a 9% increase in U.S. dollars and a 12% rise in constant currency.
Despite the top-line growth, the company&#8217;s gross margin declined by 200 basis points year-over-year to 39.9%. The retailer posted an adjusted operating loss of $26 million, translating to a margin of -4%, and an adjusted loss per share of $0.44.
Price Action: Guess? Inc. shares slipped 1.08% during Thursday's regular trading session but rebounded with a 2.18% gain in Friday's pre-market trading, according to <a href="https://pro.benzinga.com/dashboard">Benzinga Pro data</a>.

<h3>A Look at Guess P/E Relative to Its Competitors</h3>
The P/E ratio measures the current share price to the company's EPS. It is used by long-term investors to analyze the company's current performance against it's past earnings, historical data and aggregate market data for the industry or the indices, such as S&amp;P 500. A higher P/E indicates that investors expect the company to perform better in the future, and the stock is probably overvalued, but not necessarily. It also could indicate that investors are willing to pay a higher share price currently, because they expect the company to perform better in the upcoming quarters. This leads investors to also remain optimistic about rising dividends in the future. 
Compared to the aggregate P/E ratio of the 18.51 in the Specialty Retail industry, Guess Inc. has a lower P/E ratio of 14.43. Shareholders might be inclined to think that the stock might perform worse than it's industry peers. It's also possible that the stock is undervalued. 

<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749153663_1.png" alt="Guage" />

In conclusion, the price-to-earnings ratio is a useful metric for analyzing a company's market performance, but it has its limitations. While a lower P/E can indicate that a company is undervalued, it can also suggest that shareholders do not expect future growth. Additionally, the P/E ratio should not be used in isolation, as other factors such as industry trends and business cycles can also impact a company's stock price. Therefore, investors should use the P/E ratio in conjunction with other financial metrics and qualitative analysis to make informed investment decisions.

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">New On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>Jack in the Box (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/JACK#NASDAQ">JACK</a>) is exploring strategic options for Del Taco, including a potential sale, just two years after acquiring it for $585 million. According <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-23/jack-in-the-box-weighs-sale-of-del-taco-restaurant-chain?srnd=phx-deals&amp;sref=TBDibEcD">to</a> Bloomberg, the fast-food chain could fetch up to $200 million. The company is working with Bank of America on the process and plans to close 150 to 200 underperforming restaurants as part of <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/fast-food">a broader restructuring</a>.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Billy McFarland, the infamous mastermind behind the spectacular dumpster fire known as Fyre Festival, is back. After conning the rich and famous (and some unlucky Instagram influencers) out of millions and earning himself nearly four years behind bars, McFarland was supposedly prepping for another Fyre event. With just a month to go before round two was set to launch, he's now trying to auction off the "Fyre" brand to the highest bidder, <a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/DIzDz6exph0/?hl=en">saying</a>: "This brand is bigger than any one person" — this coming from the guy who turned it into a global meme against the gullible. </li>

<h2 class="wp-block-heading">Updates On The Block</h2>
<ul>
<li>UPS (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/UPS#NYSE">UPS</a>) is <a href="https://about.ups.com/us/en/newsroom/press-releases/our-strategy/ups-to-acquire-andlauer-healthcare-group-for--1-6-billion--stren.html">acquiring</a> Canadian healthcare logistics firm Andlauer Healthcare Group (TSX:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/AND#TSX">AND</a>) for approximately $1.6 billion, paying C$55 per share—a 31% premium. The deal, expected to close by year-end, could pressure rivals like FedEx and DHL to expand their presence in the higher-margin healthcare sector. Notably, Andlauer's CEO, Michael Andlauer, also owns the NHL's Ottawa Senators, who are currently down 2-0 in a series against the Toronto Maple Leafs.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Kimberly-Clark (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KMB#NYSE">KMB</a>) has short-listed three strategic bidders for its global tissue unit, which could sell for around $4 billion. The unit generates approximately $500 million in annual EBITDA, and binding bids are expected by mid-May, according to Reuters.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Clothing brand Guess (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/GES#NYSE">GES</a>) previously received a $677-million take-private bid from WHP Global. The brand is also considering a takeover bid from private equity-backed Authentic Brands Group. ABG backers include CVC Capital Partners, General Atlantic, HPS Investment Partners and Leonard Green &amp; Partners.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>Merck KGaA is in late-stage talks to buy SpringWorks Therapeutics for around $3.5 billion, or approximately $47 per share. A deal could be announced as soon as Monday, Bloomberg reported.

</ul>
<ul>
<li>Tencent Music is reportedly <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/news/articles/2025-04-25/tencent-music-is-said-in-talks-to-buy-ximalaya-for-2-4-billion?srnd=phx-deals">in</a> discussions with China-based startup Ximalaya. The price tag is roughly $2.4 billion in a cash-and-stock deal. A deal could be finalized in the coming weeks, though discussions are ongoing. Ximalaya, backed by Tencent, Baidu and Sony Music, had 303 million monthly active users in 2023 and previously delayed a planned Hong Kong IPO. Tencent Music, which owns QQ Music, Kugou, Kuwo and WeSing, went public in the U.S. in 2018 and now has a market cap of about $20.6 billion.</li>
</ul>
<ul>
<li>European regulators <a href="https://www.ft.com/content/f06fa20d-a76b-494a-a09b-224e4d210db4">are</a> preparing to investigate Universal Music Group's proposed $775 million acquisition of Downtown Music Holdings, the Financial Times reports. The update follows antitrust concerns raised in Austria and the Netherlands. Although the deal didn&#8217;t meet EU-wide merger notification thresholds, the European Commission accepted requests to review it due to potential impacts on competition within the Single Market. Universal announced the acquisition via its Virgin Music division in December.</li>
</ul>
