Citi Trends H1 2025 Was Good, H2 2025 Will Be Harder And The Price Is Optimistic
Citi Trends, Inc. delivered strong 2Q25 results with impressive comp sales and gross margin recovery, but these gains are against weak prior-year comparisons. Operating leverage is not yet visible in profitability, though management expects improvement as sales grow and SG&A remains flat. Assortment strategy and new initiatives, like a Trend Director and an AI assistant, are positives, benefiting from a favorable off-price retail environment.

Citi Trends: Strategy Is Paying Off, But The Stock Has Discounted Improvements
Citi Trends, Inc. delivered strong Q1 2025 results, with accelerating comps, improved inventory turnover, and solid operating expense leverage under new CEO leadership. Operational improvements stem from tighter assortment discipline, opportunistic buying, and investments in store remodels and merchandising technology. Despite these positives, the current stock price already reflects much of the turnaround, leaving limited upside and heightened downside risk.

Citi Trends: Turnaround Continues, But The Stock Price Is Unattractive
Citi Trends shows improvement with strong comparable sales and gross margin expansion but struggles with SG&A leverage, guiding for breakeven operating income in FY25. The company's strategic initiatives focus on merchandising efficiency, including off-price merchandise and AI-driven product allocation, contributing to gross margin gains. Despite positive guidance and momentum, ongoing SG&A pressures hinder operational leverage, making CTRN stock unattractive until sustainable profitability is demonstrated.
