Jefferies analyst Janine Stichter upgraded Guess to Buy from Hold with an unchanged price target of $24. The recent pullback in the stock puts the company's multiple below its historical average and peers, Stichter tells investors in a research note. This presents an opportunity to own one of the few remaining retailers with both top-line growth and potential for margin expansion, the analyst writes. Further, she views the management change as an opportunity, not a sign of current weakness. Stichter also sees a "substantial runway for growth ahead" in Europe and Asia for Stichter, while pointing out that data suggest inflecting North America momentum.
