Baird downgraded Allbirds to Neutral from Outperform with a price target of $2, down from $7. The company missed Q4 sales and adjusted-EBITDA estimates, reflecting weaker demand and heightened promotional headwinds, the analyst tells investors in a research note. The firm says management’s strategy to improve growth and profitability "marks a material shift away from the prior playbook," which is compounded by an unexpected CFO departure. It is stepping to the sidelines "until there are clearer signs of stabilization."
