Canada Goose (NYSE: GOOS)<\/a><\/strong> is set to make its debut as a public company on Thursday.\u00a0And given the snow storm, the parka-jacket maker can make a case that mother nature has given her blessing on the deal.<\/p>\n

But what about IPO investors?<\/p>\n

Canada Goose is looking to raise as much as US$240m with 20mm shares being offered at US$10.50-US$12.00.<\/p>\n

Looking at the financials, Canada Goose grew revenues from $218.4m to $290.8m from FY2015 to FY2016 for a growth of more than 33%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2016 as compared to the same period in 2015…Canada Goose grew revenues 41.6%.<\/p>\n

The numbers are impressive to say the least.<\/p>\n

But are investors ready to buy into the long-term for Canada Goose? After all, Canada Goose is in a extremely tough sector of retail apparel that has certainly not been the most ‘in-favor’ sector. While Canada Goose is growing its e-commerce business, they certainly have limited experience in that sector. And furthermore, being that Canada Goose operates in the high-end sector, who is ready to fork over nearly $1,000 for a jacket on-line?<\/p>\n

Canada Goose certainly has as brand that is recognizable in the northern half of the United States, but being a parka-maker, the reach is definitely capped.<\/p>\n

Not to mention…where are all the global-warming people that say parkas are a thing of the past (half-kidding, of course!)?<\/p>\n

And furthermore, Canada Goose has been in the cross-hairs\u00a0of\u00a0animal-rights group PETA\u00a0to protest the company\u2019s use of coyote fur and down.<\/p>\n

The channel checks that we have received early-on states there is positive interest in the\u00a0IPO…but how will the company trade thereafter? Is the brand ‘sticky-enough’ to continues its upward momentum?<\/p>\n

These are all questions investors must take into account when considering whether to start a long-term investment in ‘GOOS’.<\/p>\n
