Fossil Group Gets Rocked

Joel Elconin is the co-host of Benzinga's #PreMarket Prep, a daily trading idea radio show.

Fossil Group Inc FOSL shares were trading lower by $19.00 at $80.32 in Wednesday's session. The catalyst for the decline is a Q4 miss of $0.07 ($3.00 vs. $3.07 estimates) on lower-than-expected revenue ($1.06 billion vs. $1.12 billion estimates). That marks for the first miss for the company in at least two years.

After ending Tuesday;s session at $99.32, it immediately shed $13.00 on the first reaction to the disappointing report. When after-hours trading concluded at 8:00 p.m. EST, the issue closed at $86.39.

Upon the resumption of pre-market trading, the bloodshed continued with it resting at $84.24 before the opening bell. After a brief rally to $84.98, it tanked to $80.03 and has only been able to rebound to $81.36 so far.

The current low puts the issue at its lowest level since November 2012 when it bottomed at $78.75 in November 2012.

Fossil Group is now off nearly 30 percent since peaking on the first day of the 2015 at $112.06.
