Baird analyst Jonathan Komp noted that while Dick's Sporting Goods (DKS) reported its own "disappointing" earnings, the company called out continued sales challenges for Under Armour (UAA), which it attributed to expanded distribution. He believes current sporting goods disruption for Under Armour is already reflected in the company's 2018 earnings guidance and also believes other mid-tier channels have continued to show strong sales performance, pointing out that Kohl's (KSS) saw Under Armour accelerate in Q2. Komp, who views the selloff on Dick's comments a "compelling buying opportunity," keeps an Outperform rating and $27 price target on Under Armour Class A shares.
