Here's Why G-III Apparel (GIII) Stock is Crashing Today
Read MoreHide Full Article
On Monday, shares of G-III Apparel Group (GIII - Free Report) , a clothing manufacturer that distributes brands like Ivanka Trump and Donna Karan, are crashing, down over 12% in morning trading after the company reported disappointing fourth quarter fiscal 2017 results.
G-III reported earnings of a loss of 16 cents per share, missing the Zacks Consensus Estimate of a loss of nine cents per share; this number excludes 26 cents from non-recurring items. Revenues came in at $603 million, also lagging behind our consensus estimate of $624 million but increasing 14.4% year-over-year thanks to strength in G-III’s non-outerwear wholesale business.
Like many apparel retailers, G-III was confronted with weak mall traffic and changing consumer habits, facing “significant headwinds as the traditional retail environment has become increasingly disrupted as a result of evolving consumer buying behavior and continued penetration of e-commerce,” Chief Executive Officer Morris Goldfarb said in a statement.
The company is also working through last year’s $650 million takeover of the Donna Karan and DKNY brands from LVMH, the French multinational luxury goods conglomerate; G-III expected the acquisition to effect profits during fiscal 2017, and then adding to earnings later.
Looking ahead, G-III expects net sales of roughly $2.73 billion and net income between $40 million and $45 million, or earnings between 80 and 90 cents per diluted share for fiscal 2018.
Currently, G-III is a #3 (Hold) on the Zacks Rank.
