BUZZ-Broker Opinion: Levi's explores new growth avenues beyond its jeans business
October 8 – Levi Strauss (LEVI.N) shares fell about 4% in early trading to $18.79. Boosted by tariff rebates and strong expected demand for high-end jeans and sweaters during the holiday season, the company raised its annual earnings outlook on Wednesday. The median price target among the 16 brokers covering the stock is $26.50, according to data compiled by LSEG. Business diversification is starting to show results. Barclays noted that Levi's expansion beyond jeans is paying off, with tops, women's wear, and emerging lifestyle categories contributing about half of the company’s growth, while it remains the leader in the U.S. jeans market. JPMorgan (rating: "Overweight", price target: $33) believes the slowdown in the direct-to-consumer business is only temporary, mainly due to hot weather in Europe and a misjudgment of U.S. jeans trends, as the business has already started to rebound in this quarter. BTIG (rating: "Buy", price target: $27) said improved demand trends and strong performance in wholesale, international markets, and new categories support a more optimistic outlook for the holiday season and 2027. Needham ("Buy", price target: $28) noted that the temporary weakness in Levi's own stores and website seems to have started to reverse, while growth from tops, women's wear, and other non-jeans categories indicates the brand’s dependence on jeans is declining.
