UBS Raises PT for Designer Brands to $4 from $3 with Neutral Rating

UBS has recently revised its price target for Designer Brands Inc. (NYSE: DBI) from $3 to $4, maintaining a neutral rating. The decision comes ahead of the company's expected Q2 2025 earnings release on September 9. UBS analysts cited the potential for improved operational performance and a resilient brand portfolio as reasons for the upward revision [1].

Designer Brands Inc. reported disappointing Q1 FY2025 results, with revenue declining by 8% to $687 million. Despite this, the company's strong brand portfolio and digital commerce presence are expected to provide resilience in challenging conditions. The company operates through over 650 DSW Designer Shoe Warehouse, The Shoe Co., and Rubino stores across North America, managing a diverse portfolio of brands including Topo Athletic, Keds, Vince Camuto, and Jessica Simpson [1].

Investors and financial professionals are encouraged to tune in to the earnings call and webcast to gain insights into the company's performance during the second quarter of 2025. The company's earnings call will provide valuable insights into its operational performance and strategic initiatives [1].

Additionally, Rosen Law Firm has encouraged Designer Brands Inc. investors to inquire about a securities class action investigation. The Rosen Law Firm is investigating potential securities claims on behalf of shareholders resulting from allegations that Designer Brands may have issued materially misleading business information to the investing public. If you purchased Designer Brands securities, you may be entitled to compensation without payment of any out of pocket fees or costs through a contingency fee arrangement [2].
