Piper Jaffray analyst, Erinn Murphy reduced her PT on Under Armour, Inc. (NYSE: UA) after inventory rose in footwear and apparel which will likely lead to price promotions in the coming weeks. Consequently, she is reducing Q4 EPS from $0.46 to $0.44 and cutting the PT to $88 from $97 by reducing her multiple from 60x to 55x. The analyst maintained a Neutral rating.

During the Thanksgiving weekend, UA remained promotional--not only in apparel but also within footwear. To wit, on Dick's Sporting Goods (as illustrated online), they offered $15 off select athletic footwear brands as a doorbuster promo and sustained this throughout the weekend. In addition, we consistently saw Armour Baselayer 25% off (new Y/Y) and Logo Hoodies 25% off (consistent Y/Y). In addition, over the weekend we saw 25% off Fleece Pants, Thermals & Waffle shirts, and 1/4 Zips.
