The reasons for the target adjustment include a high base and considerations for balancing sales, discounts, and inventory. Despite weak industry demand, ANTA's realistic targets contribute to brand recognition and market position. Nomura has lowered its sales forecast for ANTA from 2025 to 2027 by 1% to 5%, with the target price reduced from HKD 121.80 to HKD 117.00, maintaining a buy rating. The stock fell 3.4% to HKD 84.85 Nomura's Dong Jizhou stated in a report that although ANTA SPORTS has lowered its sales target for 2025 for the second time, the company remains the most fundamentally sound among Chinese sportswear companies. He indicated that the reason for the target reduction may be due to a high comparison base, as well as ANTA's focus on balancing sales, discount levels, and inventory. He added that given the weak demand in the industry, the company's more realistic targets may benefit its long-term brand recognition and market leadership. Nevertheless, due to a more cautious outlook on ANTA's core brand sales and gross margin trends for the second half of the year, Nomura has lowered its sales forecast for ANTA for 2025-2027 by 1% to 5%. Nomura has reduced the target price for the stock from HKD 121.80 to HKD 117.00, while maintaining a buy rating. The stock fell 3.4% to HKD 84.85 ### Related Stocks - [02020.HK - ANTA SPORTS](https://longbridge.com/en/quote/02020.HK.md) ## Related News & Research | Title | Description | URL | |-------|-------------|-----| | 安踏体育产品获得了安踏国际及其子公司的书面股东批准 | 安踏体育产品获得安踏国际及其子公司的书面股东批准 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/275885036.md) | | 传安踏出手竞购彪马 布局全球一线运动品牌 | 安踏体育用品有限公司提出收购德国运动品牌彪马 29% 股份,若交易成功,将增强其全球化布局。安踏已向彪马最大股东法国皮诺家族提出收购,并为交易安排融资。尽管安踏在并购方面经验丰富,但仍面临估值和监管审查等挑战。此举将加速安踏的全球化进程,进 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/272522492.md) | | 安踏收购 PUMA:一次非典型全球化落子 | | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/273853932.md) | | 早盘趋势|安踏体育低位震荡,反弹窗口要来了? | 1 月 22 日收盘,安踏体育(2020.HK)持续维持低位震荡格局,全天多空博弈拉锯明显,观望氛围下资金参与度有限。股价依然延续此前下探趋势,距离关键支撑位 78.65 港元渐近。近期有券商报告称 2024 年体育用品行业整体订单滑坡幅度 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/273347483.md) | | 安踏收购彪马是双赢!摩根大通:安踏需要全球化,彪马需要而安踏也擅长 “重塑” | 摩根大通认为,这笔交易对双方而言具有长期战略价值,彪马的全球业务布局和运动品类细分定位与安踏高度互补。彪马有助于提高安踏市场影响力和品牌知名度,而安踏有望促进彪马重塑、重拾动能,尤其是在中国市场挖掘其品牌潜力。 | [Link](https://longbridge.com/en/news/273971716.md) | --- > **Disclaimer**: This article is for reference only and does not constitute any investment advice.
