Stock News
Oct 20

Goldman Sachs has released a report indicating that XTEP INT'L (01368) announced its operational performance for the third quarter of 2025. The retail sales of its core brand XTEP grew year-on-year as expected, while the Saucony brand saw an increase of over 20%, slightly below expectations. The target price has been reduced from HK$7.10 to HK$6.80 to reflect soft overall industry demand and short-term market sentiment amid discounting trends. The company currently has a projected price-to-earnings ratio of 9 times for 2026, which is deemed reasonable, and thus, the "Buy" rating is maintained. The company reaffirmed its full-year guidance, forecasting positive growth for the XTEP brand, over 30% growth for the Saucony brand, and a net profit increase of over 10%. After a comprehensive assessment, Goldman Sachs has slightly adjusted its net profit forecasts for XTEP INT'L for the fiscal years 2025 to 2027 by 2% to 3%, primarily reflecting a decline in the profitability of the Bubugao brand and a slowdown in growth for Saucony.
