2024-09-19
Reason
UBS analyst Jay Sole raised the firm's price target on Children's Place to $18 from $12 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. Children's Place made surprising progress reducing expenses in Q2, but these changes contributed to revenue declining 7.5% year over year in the quarter, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm believes Children's Place's top-line will remain under pressure due to the ongoing impact of the cost savings activities as well as a tough competitive environment for children's apparel.
