Birkenstock Holding PLC is not a strong buy at this moment for a beginner investor with a long-term strategy. While the company shows positive financial growth and hedge fund interest, the stock's recent price trend, mixed analyst sentiment, and lack of strong proprietary trading signals suggest waiting for a clearer entry point.
The MACD is positive and expanding, indicating bullish momentum. RSI is neutral at 56.236, showing no overbought or oversold conditions. Moving averages are converging, suggesting indecision in the market. Key support is at 36.902, and resistance is at 40.374. The stock is trading near its pivot point of 38.638.
Hedge funds are significantly increasing their positions, with a buying increase of 890.39% over the last quarter. The company's Q1 financials show strong revenue growth of 11.11% YoY and a significant net income increase of 151.29% YoY. Analysts from Goldman Sachs and Deutsche Bank maintain a Buy rating, citing attractive valuation and strong brand momentum.
The stock price has been declining, with a pre-market drop of -6.50% and a regular market change of -1.45%. Gross margin dropped by 7.56% YoY, and analysts have lowered price targets, reflecting concerns about medium-term growth and margin headwinds. Insider trading trends are neutral, and there are no recent congress trading data or significant political endorsements.
In Q1 2026, Birkenstock reported revenue of €401.9 million, up 11.11% YoY. Net income increased significantly by 151.29% YoY to €50.56 million, and EPS rose by 145.45% YoY to €0.27. However, gross margin dropped to 55.72%, down 7.56% YoY, indicating cost pressures.
Analyst sentiment is mixed. Recent upgrades include Williams Trading upgrading the stock to Buy based on valuation, and Deutsche Bank resuming coverage with a Buy rating. However, several firms, including Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley, have lowered price targets, citing concerns about growth deceleration and margin pressures.
