What the Analysts think about COLM
Analyst ratings (Buy, Hold, Sell) for Columbia Sportswear stock.
Analyst projections of the future price of Columbia Sportswear stock.
Bulls say / Bears say
International demand is providing a credible counterweight to US weakness. Second-quarter growth was led by LAAP and EMEA, with China, Japan, Korea and distributor markets contributing, and management expects China to remain one of its fastest-growing markets. (The Motley Fool, MarketScreener)
The ACCELERATE strategy is showing early product traction rather than relying only on advertising. Footwear grew faster than other categories, newer technical styles sold out, and the Spring 2027 wholesale order book was about 90% complete with indications of low- to mid-single-digit growth. (Sporting Goods Intelligence, The Motley Fool)
Columbia has improved its reported 2026 profit outlook and retains financial flexibility to keep investing through the turnaround. It now guides to $4.45–$4.90 of diluted EPS, while ending the second quarter with about $625 million of cash and short-term investments and no borrowings. (Morningstar, StockTitan)
The US remains the main problem: second-quarter sales fell 4% and first-half sales fell 8%, reflecting weaker wholesale orders, lower store traffic and ongoing brand-perception work. This leaves Columbia reliant on international markets while its largest business is shrinking. (StockTitan, StockTitan)
The sharp second-quarter profit rebound overstates the underlying improvement. The tariff refund added a large one-off benefit, while gross margin excluding it fell year on year because of higher US tariffs and increased discounting. (The Motley Fool, Morningstar)
Near-term execution is vulnerable: management expects third-quarter sales to be flat to down 1.5%, while logistics disruption and a supply-chain bottleneck are shifting fall shipments into the fourth quarter. That raises the risk of missed wholesale orders, heavier promotions or weaker demand before the delayed stock arrives. (The Motley Fool, MarketScreener)
