Target cuts meet earnings date

Raymond James kept an Outperform rating while lowering the target by CAD 25.00, a 12.50 percent reduction from CAD 200.00. MarketBeat also reported that Ventum Capital cut its target from CAD 186.00 to CAD 146.00 and assigned a Neutral rating in a report dated September 30, 2026.

First-quarter growth stays strong

Aritzia generated CAD 951.0 million of revenue in the first quarter of fiscal 2027, up 43.40 percent from CAD 663.3 million in the comparable fiscal 2026 quarter, according to MarketScreener.

The figures give the earnings date a clear test: maintaining comparable-sales momentum must justify the elevated growth expectations reflected in earlier analyst targets. The first-quarter operating margin also improved to 15.90 percent from 12.10 percent, although operating cash flow fell to CAD 81.2 million from CAD 100.3 million.
