Under Armour Inc. is not a strong buy at the moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy. While there are some positive signals such as insider buying and bullish moving averages, the company's financial performance and ongoing challenges, including cybersecurity concerns and declining revenue, make it prudent to hold off on investing right now. The investor should wait for clearer signs of a turnaround before committing capital.
The technical indicators show mixed signals. The MACD is slightly positive, RSI is neutral, and moving averages are bullish (SMA_5 > SMA_20 > SMA_200). However, the stock is trading close to its pivot level of 6.718, with resistance at 7.436 and support at 6. This suggests limited immediate upside potential.
Insider buying activity, particularly by CEO Prem Watsa, suggests confidence in the company's future.
UBS maintains a Buy rating with an $8 price target, citing potential for 25% annual earnings growth over the next five years.
Bullish moving averages indicate a positive technical trend.
Declining revenue (-5.23% YoY) and significant net income loss (-35013.05% YoY) in Q3
Cybersecurity investigation could harm reputation and shareholder confidence.
Competitive pressures and a recent downgrade by Citi Research have weighed on the stock.
In Q3 2026, Under Armour reported a revenue decline of -5.23% YoY to $1.33 billion and a net income loss of -$430.83 million, down -35013.05% YoY. Gross margin also dropped to 44.42% (-6.44% YoY). Despite a slight improvement in EPS to -1.01, the financials indicate significant challenges.
Analysts have mixed views. UBS is optimistic with a Buy rating and an $8 price target, citing the company's undervaluation and potential for long-term growth. However, Baird maintains a Neutral rating with a $7 price target, reflecting cautious optimism. The analyst sentiment is moderately positive but not overwhelmingly bullish.
