Compagnie Financiere Richemont on Monday posted higher sales for
the first quarter of its financial year, which it said were driven
by its jewellery business and retail channel.
The Swiss-based luxury company reported sales of 5.32 billion
euros ($5.97 billion) for the quarter ending March 31, up from
EUR4.65 billion in the same quarter a year prior.
The increase was driven by the Jewellery Maisons business, which
posted sales of EUR3.60 billion in the quarter, while the other
main growth driver, Specialist Watchmakersm had sales of EUR1.06
billion. The retail distribution channel was the strongest,
Richemont said.
Analysts polled by FactSet had expected first-quarter company
sales to be EUR5.43 billion.
The company said the Asia-Pacific region showed a strong rebound
in the quarter, which more than offset muted sales in the
Americas.
