What the Analysts think about Target
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Target stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Target stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
Digital comparable sales increased 8.7%, with same-day delivery growing by more than 25%; non-merchandise sales, including advertising, rose 20.1%. These faster-growing channels could add to sales while broadening Target’s earnings sources. (Target)
Profitability improved even without the tariff refund: gross margin expanded by about one percentage point year on year, and adjusted EPS rose 20% excluding the refund. Management expects the full-year operating margin, excluding refunds, to improve by about half a percentage point from last year. (Target)
Food sales grew 7%, but grocery carries lower margins than apparel, home and other discretionary goods. The strategy depends on converting grocery visits into wider, more profitable purchases, which Reuters says remains a key test. (Reuters)
Target is committing about $5 billion to new stores, remodels, technology and supply-chain upgrades, while its in-store experience and execution still need work. If those costly changes do not fix availability, presentation and service, the investment may not deliver lasting sales growth. (Target, Retail Dive)
