WW International (WW) Positioned Well Due to Favorable Market Trends and Brand Awareness - Jefferies

Jefferies analyst Stephanie Wissink reiterated a Buy rating and $35.00 price target on Weight Watchers International (NASDAQ: WW) citing favorable market trends given consumer focus on well-being, strong brand awareness with growing "beyond weight" pathways to brand entry, leading tech platform digitalization, attractive FCF, and multiple expansion potential.

The analyst stated "WW has combined physical + digital with a greater proportion of new demand being digitally directed. Pre COVID-19, 25% of new customers opted for Digital + Studio (physical) memberships, moderating to 10% as of early June. In the med-term, a smaller Studio footprint is expected (800 branded locations, 2,500 3rd party currently) focused in key metropolitan markets."
