While we enjoy listening to the management's commentary, our favorite part of earnings calls are the analyst questions. Those are unscripted and can often highlight topics that management teams would rather avoid or topics where the answer is complicated. Here is what has caught our attention.

In upcoming quarters, the StockStory team will be monitoring (1) Levi’s ability to mitigate tariff impacts through cost actions and pricing; (2) progress on DTC expansion targets, including the effectiveness of new store formats and e-commerce enhancements; and (3) international market growth, particularly in Europe and Asia. Execution on product innovation and inventory management will also be key indicators of sustained profitability.

Levi's currently trades at $18.95, up from $13.48 just before the earnings. At this price, is it a buy or sell? Find out in our full research report (it’s free).
