BUZZ-Telsey Advisory Group lowers PT on Signet Jewelers after co cuts Q4 forecasts

ReutersJan 15, 2025 5:02 PM

** Brokerage Telsey Advisory Group cuts PT on diamond retailer Signet Jewelers SIG.N to $65 from $87

** Says SIG's holiday sales, and Q4 sales and earnings forecast cut are disappointing, given most other retailers have provided better-than-expected or in-line holiday sales

** Maintains "market perform" rating, notes co's engagement-rings business has not fully recovered, and expects SIG's fashion segment will take time to grow

** While new CEO J.K. Symancyk has significant consumer experience, he is new to jewelry, which poses some risk - brokerage

** We remain cautious on the uncertain macro environment and its impact on SIG's mass consumer, says Dana Telsey, analyst with TAG

** Brokerage Wells Fargo also cuts stock PT to $95 from $110

** Median PT of seven brokerages covering the stock is $87 - LSEG

** SIG fell about 25% in 2024
