Why is VF Corporation stock sliding today?
VF Corporation stock fell 5.5% in pre-market trading after its Q2 2027 earnings beat estimates but disappointed investors. Adjusted EPS was $0.70 vs. $0.53 estimate, revenue was $2.7B vs. $2.66B. Vans revenue declined 9.8% YoY, and guidance was reaffirmed. The stock is trading at $16.10 pre-market, down from a 52-week high of $22.27.
