Janney Montgomery Scott upgraded VF Corp. (NYSE: VFC) from Hold to Buy with a price target of $160.00.
Analyst, Eric Tracy, said, "We are upgrading shares of VFC to Buy, as our meetings with the company give us greater comfort that the market has over-reacted to fears regarding Europe (down 12% from the peak), exacerbated by recent commentary from Ralph Lauren (NYSE: RL)(Not Covered). We hosted investor meetings with VFC at our Janney Consumer Conference, and we come away with greater conviction that the company is positioned to navigate through the weakening macro conditions in Europe, while continuing to drive top line growth beyond the region (taking share domestically, further penetrating emerging markets) and drive greater margin expansion (input cost inflation reversal + mix shift, DTC, Int'l), all of which support a continued robust earnings trajectory over the next few years."
