Wide moat VF's growth engines are working well despite U.S. wholesale weakness.
Wide moat VF Corp. saw first-quarter wholesale performance come in lighter than we’d have liked, but performance in the growth driving categories was solid and we continue to think that the market is undervaluing the company’s future potential. With first-quarter revenue of the big three brands up 4%, Bulwark, Timberland Pro, and Wrangler Riggs up at a midteen rate, International business increasing 5%, and direct to consumer up 7% (with more than 25% growth in digital), we feel comfortable that...VF is an apparel and footwear company. The company designs, produces, procures, markets and distributes a variety of lifestyle products, including outerwear, footwear, occupational and performance apparel, jeanswear, backpacks and luggage for consumers of all ages. Products are marketed primarily under the company-owned brand names. The company's segment comprised of: Outdoor, which includes performance-based and outdoor apparel, footwear and equipment; Active, which includes active apparel, footwear and accessories; Work, which consists of work and work-inspired lifestyle apparel and footwear and occupational apparel; and Jeans, which markets denim and related casual apparel products.
