Analysts will start buzzing about Levi Strauss (NYSE:LEVI) on April 15. Levi's priced its IPO at $17, above the target range of $14 to $16. Shares closed at $22.22 on Friday. It doesn't appear that Levi's management is getting ahead itself after the company posted a solid Q4 and seeing the share price bounce. "We're still facing some headwinds, including anticipated door closures at traditional wholesale customers, unrest in Europe, as well as Brexit, continued uncertainty around China tariffs, and declines in U.S. retail traffic," stated CEO Chip Bergh on the earnings call.
