Crocs has regained brand recognition in the past few years, and the Q4 report highlights continued great revenues and incredibly high margins. The HEYDUDE brand is still waiting for stabilization. Zooming out, CROX's history has been turbulent. The constant celebrity and brand collaborations highlight a currently hot brand, but fashion trends may change—the Company's earnings have asymmetric downside. At a single-digit P/E, the stock already prices in a stagnating brand. I estimate 9% upside to a fair value of $116 in a DCF model base scenario.
An investment in Crocs (CROX 18.33%) is starting to feel like a pair of its signature shoes: There may still be holes in the business model, but comfort is winning over polarizing fashion aesthetics. Shares of the resin-footwear maker jumped at the open on Thursday after the company posted better-than-expected results.
