JPMorgan analyst Matthew Boss lowered his price target for Gap to $14 from $15 after the company announced that its CEO Art Peck was stepping down and Chairman Fisher will be serving as interim CEO. In conjunction with the management change, Gap negatively pre-announced Q3 same-store-sales and lowered its fiscal 2019 earnings guidance, Boss tells investors in a research note. He believes the Q3 shortfall was driven by "continued sub-industry traffic challenges" across all three of Gap's brands.
