Wolverine World Wide Hits Day High with 10.75% Surge in Stock Price

Wolverine World Wide, Inc. has experienced a significant uptick in its stock performance, gaining 10.75% on February 26, 2026. The stock reached an intraday high of USD 21.28, reflecting a strong day of trading for the small-cap footwear company. In terms of performance metrics, Wolverine World Wide has outperformed the S&P 500 across various time frames. Over the past week, the stock rose by 11.5%, while its one-month performance stands at 14.76%. Notably, the company has achieved a year-to-date increase of 10.08%, contrasting sharply with the S&P 500's modest 0.94% gain. Despite these positive short-term trends, Wolverine World Wide has faced challenges in the long term, with a five-year performance decline of 42.83%. The company has shown a 7.89% compound annual growth rate in operating profits over the last five years, but its high debt-to-EBITDA ratio of 8.32 times raises concerns about its ability to service debt. Overall, while Wolverine World Wide has made notable strides in recent trading, its long-term fundamentals suggest a complex financial landscape.
