JPMorgan analyst Matthew R. Boss has updated quarterly models for <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/retail">some department store companies</a>.
Here are his views on three retailers.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Kohl&#8217;s</h3>
Despite sales gains tied to in-store efforts like Sephora and Home Décor, Kohl&#8217;s Corporation (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/KSS#NYSE">KSS</a>) continues to face revenue declines in several segments—apparel, footwear, and legacy homes.
The analyst also flagged structural risks to Kohl's store footprint, which makes up over half of U.S. department stores. Adjusted debt/EBITDAR ended 2023 at 3.6x—that&#8217;s well above the company's ~2.5x target. Continued same-store sales pressure and margin erosion is likely pushing leverage above 4x through 2024–26, based on JPMorgan estimates.

Boss forecasts fiscal year 2025 EPS of 56 cents and fiscal year 2026 EPS of 53 cents, both above Street estimates of 41 cents and 47 cents, respectively.
The analyst maintains an Underweight rating on the stock with a price forecast of $8, unchanged.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Vail Resorts</h3>
Boss writes that Vail Resorts, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/MTN#NYSE">MTN</a>) may be approaching a turning point in revenue and earnings as FY25 winds down, helped by the return of former CEO Katz and unique growth drivers.
The analyst highlights the company&#8217;s premium resort portfolio, upfront revenue via its Epic Pass strategy, and a more resilient customer base of high-income, frequent skiers as key advantages.
Boss projects fiscal year 2025 adjusted EBITDA at $866 million and fiscal year 2026 at $908 million, both slightly above Street estimates.
The analyst keeps a Neutral rating on Vail Resorts, with a price forecast of $167.
<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Foot Locker</h3>
Boss notes that while Foot Locker, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/FL#NYSE">FL</a>) has faced challenges from inconsistent same-store sales, increased promotions, and brand allocation changes—particularly with Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>)—Dick's Sporting Goods (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/DKS#NYSE">DKS</a>) aims to revamp the business through its $2.4 billion acquisition.
The deal is intended to create a larger global retail sports platform, strengthen brand partnerships, enhance omni-channel capabilities, and unlock synergies.
Boss models fiscal year 2025 EPS for Foot Locker at $1.10, ahead of the Street's $1.00, and projects fiscal year 2026 EPS to rise to $1.65.
The analyst reiterated the Neutral rating on the stock, with a price forecast of $24.

Retail Reality Check: JPMorgan Flags Kohl's Leverage Risks, Sees Signs of Stability At Vail And Foot Locker

'Nike Delays Launch for New Brand With Kim Kardashian's Skims'- Bloomberg

The wait for a turnaround in Nike Inc's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) business is not over, as analysts expect trends to remain challenging <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/topic/apparel">in the near term</a>.
The Nike Analyst: <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst/5846ee56ee7bf6000154d12e/tom-nikic">Analyst Tom Nikic</a> maintained a Buy rating, while reducing the price target from $75 to $66.
The Nike Thesis: While there is modest upside to the company's fourth-quarter earnings, it is due to conservative guidance, Nikic said in the note.
Check out <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings">other analyst stock ratings</a>.
Street expectations for Nike's performance in fiscal 2026 appear "too high," he added.
Tariffs could lower the company's gross margin by 200-250 basis points, translating to a negative impact of 50 cents per share to earnings, the analyst stated.
"While we believe that last year&#8217;s change in leadership will eventually lead to brighter days for Nike, the company still has a lot of work to do to reignite brand heat and clean up the marketplace," he further wrote.
NKE Price Action: Shares of Nike had risen by 0.53% to $60.32 at the time of publication on Wednesday.

Market Whales and Their Recent Bets on NKE Options

BofA Securities analyst Lorraine Hutchinson reiterated the Buy rating on Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>)<a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/NKE/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener"> with a price forecast of $80.</a>
After the closing bell, the company will release its fourth quarter fiscal <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/pressreleases/25/05/b45682813/nike-inc-announces-fourth-quarter-fiscal-2025-earnings-and-conference-call" rel="noreferrer noopener">2025 financial results on June 26.</a>
Hutchinson writes that the fourth quarter marked Nike&#8217;s &#8220;peak&#8221; of sales and margin pressure, as the company aggressively cleared excess inventory without enough new product innovation to compensate.
The analyst maintains a fourth quarter EPS estimate of 12 cents, in line with consensus, but sees the outlook for fiscal 2026 as the more critical focus of the upcoming earnings call.
Also Read: <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/analyst-stock-ratings/analyst-color/25/06/45890962/academy-sports-sees-execution-strength-and-nike-momentum-but-analyst-warns-of-prolonged-demand-weakness" rel="noreferrer noopener">Academy Sports Sees Execution Strength And Nike Momentum, But Analyst Warns Of Prolonged Demand Weakness</a>
Following recent discussions with CEO Elliott Hill, the analyst highlights growing retailer enthusiasm for Nike&#8217;s Spring &#8217;26 innovation pipeline.
The wholesale landscape remains fluid and not all partners are thriving. But Hutchinson stresses that Nike is positioned to navigate these challenges.
The company can deepen newer retail relationships and reclaim shelf space as competitors scale back their presence, she says.
Nike is expected to outline both the mitigated and unmitigated impact of current tariffs. However, it&#8217;s uncertain what level of forward guidance the company will offer beyond the first quarter.
Hutchinson notes that Nike&#8217;s move to quarterly guidance highlights ongoing visibility challenges. With a new fiscal year starting, he writes that management must clarify when aged inventory will be cleared in wholesale and DTC, and when a sales rebound is likely.
The analyst maintains the Buy rating, seeing the potential for sales to rebound in the first half of fiscal 2026 as inventory normalizes and product innovation gains traction.
Hutchinson further writes that Nike is well-equipped to manage the current tariff environment, thanks to its strong negotiating leverage with both vendors and retailers, as well as its pricing power.
The analyst points out that Nike has already implemented targeted price hikes, including $5–$10 increases on footwear priced over $100 and some modest increases across adult apparel and equipment.
Hutchinson adds that Nike&#8217;s decision to leave kids&#8217; products and footwear under $100 untouched was a smart move, positioning the brand to maintain accessibility.
The analyst sees Nike&#8217;s broad pricing structure and scale as advantages if consumer spending begins to tighten.
This apart, Hutchinson sees early signs of stabilization in Nike&#8217;s wholesale business, noting that Fall &#8217;25 order books outside China are only modestly lower, with weakness in classic footwear being nearly offset by strength in performance categories.
Hutchinson has lowered his FY26 EPS estimate to $1.80 from $2.00 due to foreign exchange adjustments and reduced expectations for China, while keeping his FY27 estimate steady at $3.00.
Price Action: NKE shares are trading lower by 1.50% to $61.86 at last check Friday.

BofA Bets On Nike Rebound, Says Q4 Pain Could Lead To 2026 Gain

Nike's (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) short percent of float has fallen 18.52% since its last report. The company recently reported that it has 39.38 million shares sold short, which is 4.18% of all regular shares that are available for trading. Based on its trading volume, it would take traders 2.73 days to cover their short positions on average.
<h3>Why Short Interest Matters</h3>
Short interest is the number of shares that have been sold short but have not yet been covered or closed out. <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-short-a-stock?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">Short selling</a> is when a trader sells shares of a company they do not own, with the hope that the price will fall. Traders make money from short selling if the price of the stock falls and they lose if it rises.
Short interest is important to track because it can act as an indicator of market sentiment towards a particular stock. An increase in short interest can signal that investors have become more bearish, while a decrease in short interest can signal they have become more bullish.

<h3>Nike Short Interest Graph (3 Months)</h3>
<img src="https://www.benzinga.com/files/images/story/2025/1749736854_0.png" alt="short_fig" />
As you can see from the chart above the percentage of shares that are sold short for Nike has declined since its last report. This does not mean that the stock is going to rise in the near-term but traders should be aware that less shares are being shorted.
<h3>Comparing Nike's Short Interest Against Its Peers</h3>
Peer comparison is a popular technique amongst analysts and investors for gauging how well a company is performing. A company's peer is another company that has similar characteristics to it, such as industry, size, age, and financial structure. You can find a company's peer group by reading its 10-K, proxy filing, or by doing your own similarity analysis.
According to <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/pro/">Benzinga Pro</a>, Nike's peer group average for short interest as a percentage of float is 9.90%, which means the company has less short interest than most of its peers.
Did you know that increasing short interest can actually be bullish for a stock? <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/money/how-to-make-money-on-a-short-squeeze?adType=benzinga-insights&amp;ad=short-interest&amp;campaign=wallstreetadvantage">This post by Benzinga Money explains how you can profit from it.</a>

Looking Into Nike's Recent Short Interest

Even as May&#8217;s inflation print was better-than-expected, it snapped a four-month falling streak and rose slightly, hinting that firms absorbed some tariff-induced price hikes.
What Happened: &#8220;Surprisingly, new and used vehicle prices declined in May, despite many expecting an increase in prices from tariffs,&#8221; said the chief economist at LPL Financial, Jeffrey Roach.
According to him, prices for apparel and autos, &#8220;both highly sensitive to trade conditions, declined in May.&#8221; Apparel prices also declined in April, indicating that these companies likely &#8220;absorbed tariff costs.&#8221;
&#8220;But don't expect that to continue,&#8221; he added.
Comerica Wealth Management&#8217;s CIO, Eric Teal, reiterated Roach&#8217;s point and explained that tariffs have not yet shown up in consumer prices. &#8220;But a lot depends on the absorption rate of U.S. companies and foreign suppliers.&#8221;
Teal believed that the majority of the tariffs would eventually get passed to the consumer, &#8220;but companies are cautious at this juncture about passing along the price increase.&#8221;
Similarly, the chief economist at Comerica Bank, Bill Adams, said, &#8220;CPI cool in May, but price increases are still likely to accelerate in the second half of the year.&#8221;
Here&#8217;s how automotive and apparel companies have performed in 2025 under the tariff pressures and fear of price increases.

Why It Matters: Contrary to the aforementioned views, the CIO at Northlight Asset Management, Chris Zaccarelli, believed that lower-than-expected numbers across the board and a trade deal with China that was agreed to in London would help &#8220;the narrative around tariff-induced inflation should subside.&#8221;
However, &#8220;we are still cautious, but many of the risks that were present in early April appear to be receding at this time,&#8221; Zaccarelli added.
On the other hand, Jamie Cox also believed that the disinflation trend should be intact in the coming months. &#8220;Shelter and energy are going to keep the disinflation trend intact &#8211; prices are moving down in two of the largest categories, so investors should expect further declines in inflation in the coming months,&#8221; he said.

Automotive And Apparel Companies 'Absorbed Tariff Costs' Amid Better Than Expected May CPI Print: 'But Don't Expect That To Continue,' Says Expert

Truist Securities analyst Joseph Civello reiterated the Hold rating on Academy Sports and Outdoors, Inc. (NASDAQ:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ASO#NASDAQ">ASO</a>), <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/quote/ASO/analyst-ratings" rel="noreferrer noopener">raising the price forecast from $45 to $47</a>.
The Hold rating reflects a conflict between the company&#8217;s successful business transformation and the persistent macroeconomic pressures on its key middle-income demographic.
While the analyst praised the operational improvements since 2019, he remained cautious that the challenging economic climate will continue to suppress consumer demand longer than broadly forecasted.

The company reported quarterly adjusted earnings per share of 76 cents, missing the <a target="_blank" href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/earnings/25/06/45867411/academy-sports-touts-china-diversification-while-widening-guidance-on-tariff-risks" rel="noreferrer noopener">analyst consensus estimate of 90 cents</a>. Net sales of $1.35 billion missed the Street view of $1.37 billion.
First-quarter sales for the company experienced a slight decline of 0.9%, with comparable sales falling by 3.7%.
Civello noted that while Academy Sports&#8217; expanded Nike, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>) and new Jordan collections are exceeding expectations and trade-down trends are gaining traction, overall traffic fell mid-single digits in the first quarter and May comps declined low-single digits due to a volatile macro environment.
The analyst added that although Academy Sports has navigated tariff pressures effectively so far, he remains cautious on the second half as tariffs may increasingly impact its core middle-income shoppers.
Civello views Academy Sports as a leading sporting goods retailer for middle-income consumers, noting it has significantly improved its shopping experience and operations since 2019.
However, he pointed out that demand from its core customer base has come under pressure due to ongoing macro volatility, and he remains cautious that these headwinds could last longer than currently expected by the market.
The analyst projects the company to report FY25 earnings per share of $6.00. Civello lowered FY26 earnings estimate to $6.60 from $6.80.
Price Action: ASO shares are trading higher by 3.43% to $46.12 at last check Wednesday.

What Happened: The company said that fewer than 100 employees were impacted by the layoffs, reported Reuters.
An Amazon spokesperson explained, "As part of our ongoing work to make our teams and programs operate more efficiently, and to better align with our business roadmap, we've made the difficult decision to eliminate a small number of roles within the Books organization."

Amazon Cuts Jobs In Kindle, Goodreads Divisions, Terms It A 'Difficult Decision'

Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) is putting fresh heat on Nike Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/NKE#NYSE">NKE</a>), one of the world's most recognisable brands, this time shedding light on the conditions faced by its workers, deep inside its globalised supply chains.
What Happened: On Thursday, Sanders trained his guns at sportswear giant, criticising its labor practices abroad, and going as far as to call it &#8220;corporate greed at its worst.&#8221;
In a post on X, the independent senator from Vermont said he met a worker at one of Nike&#8217;s factories, named Dinar, who sews 222 labels per hour onto Nike products and is paid just $202 a month.
Sanders argues that this was despite the company making $23 billion last year, and its founder amassing a fortune worth over $35 billion, and yet &#8220;Nike pays just dollars a day to the workers who make its products.&#8221;

Here, Sanders is referring to Nike&#8217;s billionaire founder, Phil Knight, with a net worth of $31.2 billion, according <a href="https://www.bloomberg.com/billionaires/profiles/philip-h-knight/">to</a> the Bloomberg Billionaires Index, however, the claims of how much the company &#8220;made&#8221; last year are wrong. In 2024, Nike <a href="https://investors.nike.com/investors/news-events-and-reports/investor-news/investor-news-details/2024/NIKE-Inc.-Reports-Fiscal-2024-Fourth-Quarter-and-Full-Year-Results/default.aspx">reported</a> $51.4 billion in revenue, with a profit of $5.7 billion, or $3.73 per share.
His post, nonetheless, echoes the growing concerns surrounding global supply chains and wage disparities at large multinational corporations. 
Sanders, a longtime critic of labor exploitation and income inequality, used the moment to spotlight the gulf between executive wealth and factory-level compensation.

Why It Matters: Two months ago, at the onset of President Donald Trump&#8217;s &#8220;Liberation Day&#8221; tariffs, Nike&#8217;s global supply chains were once again in the spotlight.
Economist Peter Schiff used the company as an example, saying that Nike would <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/markets/equities/25/04/44640220/peter-schiff-says-nike-wont-build-factories-in-us-they-will-sell-to-countries-like-china-a-much-better-strategy-amid-trump-tariffs">not be building factories</a> in the U.S. to &#8220;manufacture its sneakers,&#8221; since the resulting costs would be &#8220;higher than the 40% tariffs,&#8221; clearly highlighting the importance of global supply chains and cheap labor for the company&#8217;s bottom line.
Nike&#8217;s shares are down 14.93% year-to-date, amid the tariffs and trade tensions, with <a href="https://www.benzinga.com/news/global/25/04/44741043/nike-stock-tumbles-as-us-china-trade-war-intensifies-what-you-need-to-know">its key supply regions</a>, Vietnam, China, and Indonesia being subjected to reciprocal tariffs ranging from 32% to 46%, which have since been lowered, pending trade negotiations. 
Price Action: Nike shares were down 0.16% on Thursday, trading at $62.67, and are down 2.03% after hours.

According to Benzinga&#8217;s Edge Stock Rankings, shares of Nike score poorly across key ranking metrics, and the stock has an unfavorable price trend in the medium and long-terms, but fares well in the short term.
