Action:Reiterated
Date:05/19/26
The score is held down primarily by deteriorating financial performance (losses, declining revenue, and negative operating/free cash flow) and bearish technical signals (below key moving averages with negative MACD). Earnings call guidance adds modest support via a stabilization plan and expected margin expansion, but that improvement is partly driven by a one-time tariff refund and ongoing North America weakness. Valuation provides limited support due to the negative P/E.
Positive Factors
Gross margin base & planned expansion
Under Armour maintains a relatively high gross margin base (mid-to-high 40s) and management targets ~220–270 bps expansion via pricing, reduced promotions and favorable channel mix. A structurally higher gross margin supports durable operating leverage and the path to sustained profitability as revenue stabilizes.
Negative Factors
Sustained revenue contraction
Multi-year top-line weakness, including a steep 2026 decline, signals persistent demand and share challenges—especially in core North America. Prolonged revenue decline reduces operating leverage, strains ability to invest behind the brand and makes margin recovery and consistent cash generation harder over the medium term.

Under Armour Earnings Call Summary

Earnings Call Date:May 12, 2026
(Q4-2026)
|
% Change Since: |
Next Earnings Date:Aug 06, 2026
Earnings Call Sentiment Neutral
The call communicates meaningful progress on product assortment simplification, inventory discipline, and regional pockets of growth (EMEA, APAC, Latin America) alongside a clearer strategic focus and targeted marketing investments. However, near-term performance is constrained by significant margin headwinds from tariffs and promotions, continued North America revenue weakness, sizeable transformation costs (~$305M), an operating loss in Q4, and dependency on a tariff-refund timing benefit to drive much of the near-term margin improvement. Management positions fiscal '27 as a stabilization year with improving trends beyond Q1 but still expects slightly lower revenue for the year. Overall, positives (product, inventory, targeted investments, and clearer strategy) are balanced by material near-term financial and operational challenges.
Positive Updates
Fiscal 2026 Revenue and Regional Growth
Fiscal 2026 revenue of $5.0B (down 4% YoY) with strength in EMEA (+9% FY) and pockets of growth in APAC and Latin America; Q4 revenue of $1.2B (down 1% YoY) with APAC Q4 +13% (8% cc) and Latin America Q4 +22% (8% cc).
Negative Updates
Top-line Pressure — North America Declines
North America was a drag: fiscal '26 North America revenue down 8% YoY; Q4 North America down 7%; guidance anticipates low-single-digit North America decline in fiscal '27 with Q1 expected to be the weakest (NA down high single-digits).

Company Guidance
Under Armour guided to a year of stabilization in fiscal 2027 with revenue "down slightly" (roughly flat excluding a ~1-point Curry brand exit), regionally expecting low-single-digit declines in North America, low-single-digit growth in EMEA and APAC, and full-year gross margin expansion of ~220–270 basis points (including ~150 bps / roughly $70 million of IEEPA tariff refund largely recognized in Q1); adjusted operating income of $140–$160 million and adjusted diluted EPS of $0.08–$0.12. Management expects adjusted SG&A to rise low single digits (driven by ~2 points of higher compensation and ~1 point of incremental marketing) while keeping SG&A around 10–12% of revenue; the plan assumes the tariff refund offsets about $35 million of Middle East–related headwinds and funds ~$30 million of strategic marketing investment. For Q1 they forecast revenue down 2–3% (North America down ~7–8%, EMEA up low‑teens with ~3 points of shipment timing benefit, APAC roughly flat), gross margin up ~610–630 bps (roughly 600 bps from the tariff refund), Q1 adjusted operating income of $30–$40 million and adjusted EPS breakeven to $0.02; company also ended fiscal ’26 with $915 million inventory (‑3% YoY), ~$309 million cash and $605 million restricted investments.

Under Armour Financial Statement Overview

Summary
Weak fundamentals: profitability fell into losses with contracting revenue, and both operating cash flow and free cash flow were negative in 2025–2026. Balance-sheet leverage has improved (lower debt-to-equity), but equity erosion and negative returns tied to the downturn keep the financial profile pressured.
