Academy Sports (ASO) stock fell over 11% after missing Q4 2025 earnings expectations and issuing weak forward guidance, reflecting consumer pressure in retail. While fundamentals show some strength (2.5% net sales growth, expanded margins, strong e-commerce growth of 13.6%), comparable store sales declined and transaction counts fell 6.4%, indicating fewer customers despite higher average spending. Management flagged credit card delinquencies at double 2024 levels and weakness among lower-income consumers. Despite the selloff, analyst Cristina Fernandez maintains an Outperform rating with a $65 price target, suggesting potential upside, though technical support levels around $50 and $43-44 warrant caution.
