"We believe sales in the core business will benefit from new slimmer-fit fashion trends favored by Millennials, which account for 25% of its sales, along with middle-aged consumers," Sterne Agee analysts wrote in a Feb. 1 report.

MW continues to have square footage opportunities sized at 25-30 stores per year in the core business, or growth in low single digits."
