LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton SE said Tuesday that sales
returned to strong growth in its first quarter, boosted by its core
soft-luxury division and by the integration of jeweler Tiffany.
Sales at the French luxury-goods conglomerate grew by 30%
organically on year to 13.96 billion euros ($16.63 billion). The
figure represents an 8% rise compared with the same period in
2019.
Analysts had forecast quarterly sales of EUR12.58 billion,
according to a FactSet-compiled consensus of seven estimates.
The core fashion & leather goods division booked the largest
increase at 52%, while the watches & jewelry division, with
Tiffany integrated for the first time, posted growth of 35%. Only
selective retailing booked a sales decline at 5% on year, affected
by store closures across Europe, LVMH said.
The company added that it aims to regain growth momentum across
its business to build recovery in 2021.
