What the Analysts think about ASO
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Academy Sports and Outdoors stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Academy Sports and Outdoors stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Academy raised its fiscal 2026 adjusted EPS outlook to $6.50–$6.90 and free-cash-flow outlook to $300–$350 million, signalling stronger expected profitability and cash generation. (GlobeNewswire)
Digital sales grew 12.8% in the second quarter, giving Academy a growing online channel alongside its store network. (GlobeNewswire)
Store expansion offers a further growth lever: Academy plans 22–24 openings this year, and its newer stores already in the comparable base posted mid-single-digit sales growth. (The Motley Fool)
Comparable sales fell 0.4% in the quarter, while traffic from households earning under $50,000 dropped by a high-single-digit rate, showing that demand remains weak among price-sensitive shoppers. (GlobeNewswire, The Motley Fool)
The quarter’s 40.4% gross margin was boosted by tariff refunds, which contributed 510 basis points before price investments offset part of the benefit. That temporary support makes the margin and earnings uplift harder to repeat. (The Motley Fool)
Higher fuel costs are expected to persist through the second half, while spending on new stores, technology and marketing lifted second-quarter selling costs as a share of sales. These costs could limit operating leverage even if sales grow. (The Motley Fool)
