Cartier Owner Richemont Sales Rise as Rich Shoppers Spend on Jewellery
EUROPE, AMERICAS, MIDDLE EAST AND AFRICA, JUL 16 – Richemont's jewelry sales rose 11% to €3.91 billion, offsetting a 7% decline in watch sales and driving a 6% overall revenue increase in Q1 fiscal 2025/26.
- Richemont, the Swiss luxury group, reported a 6% sales increase to 5.4 billion euros for its fiscal first quarter ended June 30, 2025.
- This growth followed a currency-fueled surge in the prior-year period, but weakening demand in Japan and Asia partly offset gains in the Americas and Europe.
- Growth was primarily driven by an 11% increase in jewelry sales, while the specialist watchmakers segment experienced a 7% year-on-year decline.
- Richemont ended the quarter with a net cash balance of 7.4 billion euros, reflecting the April divestment of Yoox Net-A-Porter to Mytheresa. Jelena Sokolova indicated that the company is expected to maintain a stronger performance relative to its industry peers.
- The results suggest Richemont remains resilient amid volatile macroeconomic conditions, boosted by strong jewelry demand and regional sales growth despite challenges in Japan and parts of Asia.
