Upturn Advisory & Investor View for WEYS

11/06/2026: WEYS (3-star) is a STRONG-BUY. BUY for 167 days. Simulated Profits (86.28%). Updated daily EoD!

Weyco Group is a small-cap footwear company known for its portfolio of heritage brands like Florsheim and BOGS. Its primary business strength lies in a conservative balance sheet and a consistent history of dividend payments, which may appeal to income-oriented investors. The main growth story focuses on expanding direct-to-consumer digital channels and building the BOGS brand in outdoor segments. However, the company faces significant risks from shifts in fashion toward casual footwear and intense competition in the retail sector. Investors should monitor the effectiveness of brand modernization efforts and the stability of wholesale partnerships as the company navigates changing consumer habits in a mature market.

Upturn Scorecard

Upturn Star Rating

★★★★★
WEYS receives a 3-star rating based on the available scored pillars. The rating is constrained by soft analyst coverage, and limited analyst upside.

Company Fundamentals

★★★★★
WEYS has moderate overall fundamentals (3 stars), with solid financial health, moderate growth momentum, and solid ownership. In FY2025 versus FY2024, solid cash generation (FCF margin 12.9%) is partially offset by negative earnings growth (-23.9%), slightly negative revenue growth (-4.9%), soft profitability (net margin 8.4%).

Financial Health Rating

★★★★★
WEYS's financial health is supported by solid liquidity, including working-capital and asset support (WC/assets 49.1%). Profitability is moderate (3 stars), which helps explain the 4-star overall score.

Growth Momentum Score

★★★★★
WEYS's growth profile is soft, with the least-weak measure being free-cash-flow growth at -2.3% FY2025 versus FY2024. By comparison, while revenue growth (-4.9%, slightly negative) and earnings growth (-23.9%, negative) hold the profile back, so recent growth is not broad-based across the business.

Ownership

★★★★★
Institutional ownership is 26.9% and approximately 59.0% of outstanding shares are publicly tradable, supporting liquidity and institutional participation. Insider ownership of 33.85% supports management-shareholder alignment.
