LVMH Sales Fall—But Luxury Conglomerate Outperforms Bleak Luxury Market Forecasts
MILAN, ITALY, JUL 23 – Moncler raised prices by mid-single-digit percentages to offset tariffs and economic weakness while considering delaying about a dozen new store openings planned for 2026.
- On Wednesday, Moncler posted a dip in second-quarter sales, sending its shares down 4% by 2 p.m.
- Earlier this year, Donald Trump imposed a 10 percent tariff with an August 1 deadline looming, while sales in Europe, Middle East and Africa declined 8% due to yen rebalancing and weak tourist spending.
- Following its price hikes, Moncler said it raised prices by mid-single-digit percentages while awaiting clarity on US levies before its 2026 strategy.
- Moncler is relying on very slight price increases, warning that broader economic weakness could delay new store openings, while Luciano Santel said, `So it's still early`.
- Looking ahead, Moncler will set its Winter 2026 prices by October, as economic uncertainty and shifting consumer preferences keep the sector on edge.
