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 markets are providing a strong growth engine: third-quarter sales outside the U.S. and Canada rose 9%, with low-teens growth in China. That gives Columbia a source of growth while its home market remains under pressure. (Columbia Sportswear)
Direct-to-consumer momentum offers evidence that Columbia’s brand refresh is reaching shoppers: third-quarter DTC sales grew 5%, while global e-commerce rose 9%. Management also reported stronger U.S. e-commerce trends alongside less promotional activity. (The Motley Fool)
The forward order picture has improved: Columbia expects mid-single-digit wholesale growth in the first half of 2027, supported by a larger Spring order book. It also raised the low end of its 2026 sales and earnings outlook after beating its third-quarter guidance. (Columbia Sportswear)
The U.S. business has yet to return to growth: third-quarter sales there fell 1%, and management said it still needs to improve consumer perceptions of the Columbia brand. A prolonged domestic recovery would limit the impact of international gains. (Columbia Sportswear)
The 2026 margin outlook relies heavily on tariff refunds rather than solely on underlying trading: the company expects those refunds to add about 180 basis points to full-year gross margin. Third-quarter gross margin itself fell 20 basis points, partly due to accommodations for factory partners. (Columbia Sportswear)
Cash generation is expected to weaken as inventory builds: Columbia cut its 2026 operating cash flow forecast to $230–250 million from $290–310 million, citing earlier Spring 2027 production. Third-quarter inventory was up 11% year on year, tying up more working capital. (Columbia Sportswear)
