Investor Insights

This summary was created by AI, based on 3 opinions in the last 12 months.

Macy's Inc. is at a pivotal moment as several reviews highlight both challenges and successes. On one hand, concerns have arisen regarding unexplained delivery expenses amounting to millions, prompting a demand for transparency from the company's management. However, recent financial results indicate a positive trajectory, with a significant earnings beat and an optimistic forecast presented in their latest report. Especially noteworthy is the growth in their Blue Mercury cosmetic line, which saw an impressive 4.3% increase in Q1 comp sales. This combination of operational concerns and strong performance metrics creates a complex picture of the company's current standing in the market.

BUY

Last Tuesday, they reported a tremendous beat and raised their forecast. Shares popped 5% in a day. They told a great turnaround story. Total revenue beat, their Blue Mercury cosmetic business rose 4.3% in Q1 comp sales and adjusted earnings beat huge as they managed costs

DON'T BUY

It reports Tuesday. It has hiked its dividend by 5%, but it won't make much of a difference.

BUY

BUY

The CEO announced he will step down next February. The CEO guided Macy's through Covid by sticking to his turnaround plan and emerged stronger. An incredible job. When the CEO took the job in 2018, Macy's was spiralling, crushed by debt and dominated by e-commerce.
