Genesco: Strong Buy Initiation On Journeys' Transformational Sales Surge
We initiate Genesco at Strong Buy with a $56 PT, driven by a structural comp surge at Journeys and digital momentum. Journeys 4.0 remodels are delivering ~25% sales lifts per store, with management accelerating the rollout to 70+ stores in FY26. Digital now drives 23% of retail sales (+7% comp), creating omnichannel tailwinds and margin resilience that the market underappreciates.

Genesco's Athletic Shift Is Mostly Empty Calories
Genesco Inc.'s Journeys posted strong comps, but growth is costly, driven by higher-priced athletic shoes with lower margins and declining traffic. Gross margins and operating profits remain weak across all segments, with Schuh, J&M, and Genesco Brands Group facing significant challenges. Rising inventories and risky capital allocation—stock buybacks despite increasing debt—add further concern to the investment case.
