Genesco ( (GCO) ) has issued an announcement.
On January 12, 2026, Genesco reported that for the fourth fiscal quarter-to-date period ended December 27, 2025, total comparable sales rose 9% year over year, driven by a 10% increase in same-store sales and a 9% gain in e-commerce, with Journeys Group posting a 12% comparable sales jump, Schuh up 6%, and Johnston & Murphy up 1%. Management highlighted strong holiday performance at Journeys with double-digit growth on top of last year’s double-digit gains, while noting that Schuh’s better-than-expected top line relied on heavier discounting amid a highly promotional U.K. footwear market and inventory cleanup efforts; reflecting these dynamics, the company raised its fiscal 2026 adjusted earnings outlook to at least $1.30 per share and said it would provide a fuller business and outlook update with its fourth-quarter and full-year results, as well as present its story to investors at the 2026 ICR Conference on January 12, 2026.
The most recent analyst rating on (GCO) stock is a Buy with a $39.00 price target. To see the full list of analyst forecasts on Genesco stock, see the GCO Stock Forecast page.
Spark’s Take on GCO Stock
According to Spark, TipRanks’ AI Analyst, GCO is a Neutral.
The score is driven mainly by solid financial momentum in revenue and free cash flow and improved leverage, but it is held back by extremely weak profitability/ROE. Technical signals are broadly neutral-to-weak with negative MACD and price below key moving averages. Valuation is a drag due to a negative P/E and no provided dividend yield, while the earnings call adds a modestly positive but cautious signal given the reduced EPS guidance and margin pressure.
