PVH CORP. /DE/ represents a hold based on multi-factor quantitative performance.
Our model assigns PVH CORP. /DE/ a Hold rating, with a composite score of 54.4/100 and 3 out of 5 stars. Ranked #1345 of 7,333 stocks, PVH presents a mixed quantitative picture — neither compelling enough to initiate new positions nor weak enough to warrant selling. Investors already holding may consider maintaining their position while monitoring for changes in the factor profile.
With a quality score of 64/100, PVH shows adequate but unremarkable business quality. The company reports a return on equity of 6.5% (sector avg: -1.9%), gross margins of 57.8% (sector avg: 44.1%), net margins of 3.5% (sector avg: 1.0%). This suggests the company generates acceptable returns but may lack the competitive positioning or operational efficiency to stand out from peers.
PVH carries a solid value score of 74/100, pointing to an attractively priced stock relative to peers. Key valuation metrics include a P/E ratio of 10.48x, an EV/EBITDA of 33.74x, a P/B ratio of 0.68x. This score suggests reasonable compensation for the risks involved, with potential upside if the market recognizes the stock's underlying worth.
With an investment score of 44/100, PVH exhibits moderate growth-oriented spending. Key growth metrics include revenue growth of 10.6% vs. a sector average of 6.7% and a return on assets of 2.8% (sector: 0.9%). The company appears to be balancing growth investments with capital returns, though the pace of investment may not be enough to accelerate top-line growth meaningfully.
PVH is currently showing below-average momentum at 33/100, which may indicate weakening institutional interest or negative sentiment shifts. Revenue growth stands at 10.6% year-over-year, while a beta of 1.38 reflects its sensitivity to broader market moves. Investors should note that declining momentum can precede further price weakness, though contrarian opportunities sometimes emerge at these levels.
With a stability score of 62/100, PVH exhibits average financial resilience. Key stability metrics include a beta of 1.38 and a debt-to-equity ratio of 46.00x (sector avg: 0.2x). While the balance sheet is not a major concern, the stock is subject to typical market volatility and may experience sharper drawdowns during risk-off episodes.
The short interest score of 43/100 for PVH suggests somewhat elevated bearish positioning by institutional traders. Specific risk factors include above-average market sensitivity (beta: 1.38), elevated leverage (D/E: 46.00x). With a $3.8B market cap (mid-cap), PVH CORP. /DE/ may experience above-average volatility. Investors should consider whether the short thesis has merit or if it creates a potential short-squeeze opportunity.
PVH offers a modest dividend yield of 0.2%. While the income contribution is relatively small, even a small dividend signals management's commitment to shareholder returns and can serve as a signal of financial discipline.
PVH CORP. /DE/ is a mid-cap company in the Manufacturing sector, ranked #0 of 50 in its sector (100th percentile) and #1345 of 7,333 overall (82nd percentile). Key comparisons include ROE of 6.5% exceeding the -1.9% sector median and operating margins of 1.4% below the 2.5% sector average. This top-quartile standing reflects exceptional competitive strength relative to Manufacturing peers.
While PVH currently exhibits a HOLD profile, superior opportunities exist within the MANUFACTURING sector. Our model identifies several "Strong Buy" candidates with higher quality scores and more attractive valuations among direct industry competitors.
