Piper Sandler analyst Anna Andreeva assumed coverage of VF Corp. (VFC) with a Neutral rating and $18 price target The firm says that VF is in the mid-innings of the turnaround to improve efficiency/profitability and drive brand heat across the portfolio, and with the first half of 2026 Sales expectations still muted, the timeline for returning to growth isn’t straightforward, especially in today’s environment. Shares are down 20%-plus year-to-date but are still trading at a slight premium to historic averages, Piper adds, saying that key to the direction of the stock is likely inflection to growth at Vans, which so far based on its analysis appears elusive.
