BTIG analyst Robert Drbul reiterates Kohl's (NYSE:KSS) from Neutral to Neutral.
Macy's raised its 2026 EPS guidance to $2.15-$2.35 following strong Q2 results with 2.7% comparable sales growth and 14% adjusted earnings increase. However, the company expects Q3 adjusted earnings losses of 19-23 cents per share due to heavy reinvestment and tough year-over-year comparisons, though lower tariff pressure and supply-chain efficiencies should support margins.
Kohl's reported adjusted Q2 EPS of $1.28, up 128.6% year-over-year, beating expectations despite a 0.9% revenue decline. The company raised full-year adjusted EPS guidance to $1.80-$2.40 and improved its sales outlook. However, margin expansion was significantly aided by $100M in tariff refunds, and the company faces execution challenges in the critical holiday season ahead.
