Stifel affirms Vince Holding (NYSE: VNCE) at Hold following Q4 results from the retailer.

Analyst Richard Jaffe noted that Vince posted Q4 EPS of $0.28, which compares with the firm's estimate of $0.27. The company is also looking for FY15 EPS of $1 to $1.05, while consensus estimates were at $1.14.

Jaffe also noted the following:

• Wholesale Declined 1 percent in 4Q – Wholesale declined 1 percent in 4Q likely driven by weaker performance in the domestic retail partners (Nordstrom, Saks, Neiman Marcus and Bloomingdales).
• DTC up 40 percent - Direct to consumer sales increased 40 percent in 4Q, aided by comparable store sales growth of 8.7 percent, the addition of 10 new stores and strength in the e-commerce business which likely continues to benefit from the updated and better merchandised website.
