LE: 4Q Preview: Ending 2025 On A High Note; Reiterate Buy Rating, $45 PT We are reiterating our Buy rating, projections and $45 price target for Lands’ End with the company announcing 4QFY25 (January) results before the open on Thursday. We believe, with a continued switch to more lifestyle focused offerings, lower overall discounting levels and highly seasonal weather, Lands’ End is poised to drive strong bottom line result and, with virtually all key licensed categories anniversaried, YoY top line growth also. Further, we expect a positive update on the impending 50/50 joint venture with leading brand licensor WHP Global, which should serve to deleverage Lands’ End balance sheet and set up the company for expansion. 2.
