BMO Capital Upgrades Under Armour To Outperform

  • BMO Capital analyst Simeon Siegel upgraded Under Armour Inc UAA to Outperform from Market Perform with a price target of $25, up from $23, implying a 32.56% upside.
  • Simeon believes the recent selloff discounts Under Armour's pandemic transformation by re-focusing on profits over growth for growth's sake.
  • With recent industry updates and "increasingly challenging compares" weighing on the sector, the analyst thinks Under Armour represents a healthy brand thrown out with the industry bathwater.
  • Although Siegel does not expect to call the bottom of the market's selloff, with Under Armour down 30% since mid-November, he sees current risk/reward as "particularly compelling."
  • Price Action: UAA shares closed lower by 2.28% at $18.86 on Friday.
