Dillard's, Inc. Class A Stock News

I maintain a hold rating on Dillard's due to ongoing macro headwinds, poor demand outlook, and risks to gross margin performance. 3Q24 results showed a 3.8% revenue decline, with negative same-store sales and margin contractions.

(NYSE: DDS) (the “Company” or “Dillard's”) announced that the Board of Directors declared a special dividend of $25.00 per share on the Class A and Class B Common Stock of the Company. The special dividend is payable January 6, 2025 to shareholders of record as of December 13, 2024.

Dillard's gets downgraded to a neutral/hold rating from my prior buy rating, while it also has kept its Fitch BBB- investment-grade rating this year. Lackluster YoY retail sales growth forecasts this holiday season, combined with weak market share vs major retail peers, is not a winning combo punch. The bright spot for Dillard's is a strong profit margin vs. peers, as well as low debt-to-equity.
