Kummetz noted:

“We believe results were positively impacted by a favorable weather backdrop, which helped drive solid full-price selling and net-reorders for the company’s Wolverine brands in particular. That said, we don’t think solid 4Q results are unexpected, as WWW’s shares are currently trading near their 52-week high. As such, with the likely good news already in the stock, we are reiterating our HOLD rating as this juncture.”
