OVERALL SCORE: 4.4/10

Context and risks

The rise in crude oil and the increase in 10-year Treasury yields (5.17%) pressure discretionary consumer spending in the US, a key market for VFC. The 5.2% decline in revenue and negative operating margin indicate the company is vulnerable to a weaker consumption macro environment.
