JPMorgan lowered the firm’s price target on American Eagle (AEO) to $9 from $10 and keeps a Neutral rating on the shares. The company announced preliminary Q1 results comprised of inline revenue and a profit shortfall due to higher than planned markdowns and an inventory charge of $75M to write-down excess spring and summer merchandise, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says American Eagle’s fiscal 2025 guidance was withdrawn due to macro uncertainty.
