Luxury slowdown? What luxury slowdown? Hermès Paris reported “solid sales growth” in its Q1 2024 financial results earlier today. Revenues are up 13% over Q1 2023 at current exchange rates (17% at constant exchange rates). With these results, Hermès beat market expectations and demonstrated strength despite predictions of doom and gloom and the slower growth results reported by LVMH last week.

These Q1 results are largely consistent with Hermès’ 2023 Q4 revenue growth. For that period, which in most years is boosted by end-of-year and holiday sales, Hermès showed revenue growth of 18% (13% at constant exchange rates).
Hermès’ largest group, Leather Goods and Saddlery, posted a 20% revenue increase over Q1 2023, again with “sustained” demand. However, Hermès spiked prices on a large number of its popular leather products in early January 2024, perhaps helping to lift revenue numbers.
On the other hand, when reporting 2023 financials, CEO Axel Dumas stated that these increases were due to the increase in production costs and negative currency impact. Regardless, Hermès’ hallmark handbags are no easier to obtain. Indeed, the difficulty is now the subject of a California antitrust lawsuit complaining it is too hard to purchase Birkins and Kellys.

Hermès Explains High Price Increases Despite Soaring Growth in 2023
Hermès Sued for Allegedly “Tying” Birkin Sales to Other Purchases
The second largest business line (based on revenue), Ready-to-wear and Accessories, reported 16% revenue growth (at constant exchange rates). Hermès points to the success of its Spring-Summer 2024 fashion line as well as the popularity of accessories and shoes.
Chez Hermès decorating remains in vogue. The Other Hermès sectors, which includes Jewellery and Home goods, experienced revenue growth of 25% over Q1 2023.
Silk and Textiles, Perfume and Beauty, and Watches, all reported a Q1 revenue increase over Q1 2023 in the single digits.

Geographically, all regions posted double-digit revenue growth (at constant exchange rates). Despite anxiety about the luxury consumer in China, that area (known as Asia-Pacific excl Japan) saw sales revenues rise 13.9% over Q1 2023. Japan, although most smaller, experienced 25.2% growth, perhaps due to the falling yen and economic advantage for tourist purchasing there.
France and Europe saw increased revenues of 14.3% and 14.6% respectively. And the Americas (which includes the United States) reported 11.8% revenue growth. For this market, which many have speculated on the pullback by the “aspirational consumer” Hermès may be less affected. Prices for its top products are less accessible, perhaps shielding Hermès from retrenchment in lower-level luxury spending.

Hermès is not alone in beating expectations and demonstrating growth. Prada also reported revenues this week, boasting an 11% increase in sales (16% at constant exchange rates). Little sister brand Miu Miu continues to soar, as its sales skyrocketed 89% year over year, no doubt buoying overall results.
LVMH’s results showed a slowdown despite growth. However, with such a broad set of business lines, overall numbers were further subdued by lagging groups like Wine & Spirits.
Gucci’s parent, Kering, likely fared the worst. It warned that first-half 2024 profits likely will decline by 40-45%. Last month’s heads-up anticipated a decline in first-quarter sales, which was confirmed this week as revenues slid 10% in a year-over-year comparison. Gucci recently changed creative directors, moving on from Alessandro Michele to Sabata de Sarno.
Kering also is home to Saint Laurent, Balenciaga, and Alexander McQueen, which saw a decline. Its Bottega Veneta bucked the trend with a modest increase, likely due in part to the popularity of its latest hot bag lines like the Andiamo, Sardine, etc.
Similarly, Valentino reported a 5% decline in revenues in Q1 as well, due to the “challenging global context for the luxury market.” Like Gucci, Valentino recently replaced its long-time creative director Pierpaolo Piccioli. New to the spot: Gucci’s outgoing director Michele.
Are you surprised that Hermès continues to succeed, where other brands are struggling? Let us know.

HOW YOU CAN RECOVER YOUR LOST CRYPTO/FUNDS: Lost hope in a crypto scam? I got my $394,330 back! I invested $430,000 in a bogus crypto site. Big returns promised, withdrawals blocked, extra fees demanded – it was a nightmare. Feeling trapped, I even considered the unthinkable. My family helped me through it, and my niece suggested HACKERSTEVE911. They’d helped her with grades, but I’d never thought of them for this. I contacted them, expecting little. But within four days, they recovered $394,330 back to my wallet! My hope, my life, was back. If you’re in a similar situation, don’t lose hope.

My name is TOM BRICKS, I’m from Mancherster. It all started when My husband left me for another woman, The most painful thing is that I was pregnant with our second baby. I wanted him back. I did everything within my reach to bring him back but all was in vain, I wanted him back so badly because of the love I had for him, I begged him with everything, I made promises but he refused. I explained my problem to my friend and she suggested that I should rather contact a spell caster that could help me cast a spell to bring him back, I had no choice but to try it. I messaged the spell caster called Dr Gbogbo, and he assured me there was no problem and that everything would be okay before 11 hours.

He wanted me to return to him. He also said he loved me so much. I was so happy and went to him. That was how we started living together happily again. Thanks to Dr Gbogbo.

My husband had the habit of always texting and fixing dates with his old friends including his exes. I never thought there was a problem with such until he became emotionally withdrawn from me and started acting abnormal towards me and my daughter. At this point I knew I needed help urgently because I never wanted to loose him. Dr Isikolo came to my rescue and the problem was fixed. One my husband’s ex vowed to ensure she takes him from him and started manipulating him to abandon me and my daughter which would have eventually happened if Dr Isikolo didn’t stepped in to help me. Just after 48 hours after fixing the problem, everything became amazing between me and my husband and now he has apologized for everything and we are good again. Contact Dr Isikolo and believe he will surely fix that problem for you. His website (https://isikolo-temple.com) or Whatsapp via: +2348133261196.
Nowadays, it is difficult to find a serious loan due to several scams related to advertising on the Internet.
But by a stroke of luck, I came across WESTLAKE LOANS who was a very important help in obtaining a loan of 52,000 EUR. I admit that I was initially reluctant with this proposal, but ultimately I realized that they are really serious and kind-hearted. If you need a loan, I strongly recommend that you contact them. they can be reached at [email protected]

I gave it all i had to make it work in my marriage but he still left me and our kids. His family fought for me and still nothing changed and he left broken and sad. I manage to keep going on with the hope everything will get better for us one day and he will be back to you. He is a great father to the kids and i had great belief i will see him return back to us. I was lucky enough to got in contact with Dr Isikolo who indeed knew how to fix the problem and he did and to my surprise, my husband came back home to me. I am still amazed how it was possible but indeed this true. The result of his work is assured to manifest after 48 hours. My husband returned and i know better Dr Isikolo is truly a honest man anyone can trust. He is good in his job of fixing problems between partner and have them get back together again.

Hello internet viewers who came across this review, I and my husband had an issue in our marriage that made us fight and he left me for one year. He didn’t return back home and I couldn’t bear the pain of losing my husband for another woman. I had to find a way just to make sure he’s back and it seems everything I did failed. Luckily I remember Dr Ughulu who helped me win the lottery ticket in 2019, I quickly contacted him and explained everything to him, how my husband left me for one year. Dr ughulu bought some items to cast a spell on him and also told me what I will do. I did everything correctly and Dr did the spell that brought my husband back immediately to me. Dr Ughulu, thank you so much for helping me get my husband back. VIA: [email protected]
