Refer to the full report for the price target, fundamental analysis, and rating.

Initiating coverage with Outperform rating and $3.50 price target. Xcel Brands is a fashion apparel company, boasting several well-known and iconic brands, such as Isaac Mizrahi and Halston. In our view, the company is on the cusp of a new, profitable growth era, after its recent business model transformation to an asset-light, brand licensor.

Business model transformation. The new licensing business model is expected to significantly lower the company’s costs, eliminating warehousing and inventory costs as well as capital expenditure needs. We believe this repositioning of the business is a key catalyst for the company to swing towards positive cash flow generation later this year.
