Cautious Outlook on Columbia Sportswear: Hold Rating Amid Sales Weakness and Rising CostsWe continue to view consensus estimates as too high as higher tariffs hit in 1H:26, though management did sound somewhat optimistic on mitigation. However, the sales outlook for 4Q is below consensus and continues to imply weakness into 1H:26, cautious behavior from wholesale partners in the U.S., and tepid traffic demand in the COLM's DTC segment. SG&A growth remains a sizable headwind in 4Q.

Columbia Sportswear: Strong Financial Performance and Strategic Initiatives Drive Buy RatingWe are decreasing our net sales estimate in the fourth quarter to $1.028 billion from $1.074 billion. Our gross margin estimate for the fourth quarter remains at 50.4%, and while we've reduced our 4Q operating margin estimate to 7.9% from 9.6%, our FY25 operating margin estimate remains largely unchanged at 6%. We are lowering our 4Q25 EPS estimate to $1.15 from $1.49, and expect FY25 EPS to be $3.20 (-16% y/y). We are keeping our FY26 EPS estimate of $3.25.
