ANF Stock Recent News

With shifting consumer trends, digital expansion, cost cuts and tariff challenges, find out whether Gap or Abercrombie is a better pick now.

Abercrombie (ANF) has been one of the stocks most watched by Zacks.com users lately. So, it is worth exploring what lies ahead for the stock.

I maintain a hold rating on Abercrombie & Fitch due to strong fundamentals but near-term uncertainties, including weak 1Q25 guidance and macroeconomic concerns. 4Q24 results were impressive with 9.1% revenue growth and solid performance from Hollister, but Abercrombie's SSSG turned negative in early 1Q25. ANF's international expansion and focus on premium lifestyle consumers offer long-term growth potential, supported by a robust balance sheet with zero debt.

ANF's sell off is partly attributed to the intensified tariff war and potential recessionary risks, with it likely impacting its near-term top/ bottom-line performance. This is worsened by the management's underwhelming FY2025 guidance, with the robust growth observed in FY2024 triggering a tougher YoY comparison. Despite so, ANF remains well positioned to weather the near-term uncertainties, thanks to the rich Free Cash Flow generation and healthier balance sheet.
