Birkenstock Exceeds Revenue Expectations with Strong Sales Growth

Newly listed Birkenstock beat revenue expectations in its first fiscal quarter as a public company, reporting a 22% year-on-year jump in sales, driven by higher pricing and rising U.S. demand. The company reported a net loss of 4 euro cents per share, but excluding one-time items, it reported a profit of 9 euro cents per share, matching Wall Street estimates. CEO Oliver Reichert highlighted the deliberate distribution strategy to keep demand higher than supply and emphasized the company's confidence in delivering its gross profit margin and adjusted EBITDA margin objectives. Since going public, Birkenstock has seen its market cap double to around $9.7 billion, and it has used some of its proceeds to pay down debt.

"Birkenstock's Trendy Sandals Fail to Boost Profit, Shares Slump"

Despite strong sales and sustained demand for its sandals, Birkenstock expects smaller profits in the next year due to planned ramp up costs and modest headwinds impacting margins. The company reported a 20% sales increase for 2023, with a 6% rise in unit sales and a 14% increase in average selling price. Analysts attribute the profit outlook to inflation and conservative guidance, but anticipate margins to reaccelerate as additional capacity comes online. Birkenstock's premium yet accessible product has remained popular with both older comfort-seeking consumers and younger shoppers, and the company's focus on casual comfort aligns with current consumer preferences.

"Birkenstock's Post-IPO Profit Warning Triggers Share Slump"

Birkenstock is increasing spending to open stores and expand production, expecting sales to rise more than 15% in its 2024 financial year, but the forecast failed to impress investors, causing shares to drop more than 8%. Despite executives' optimism, profits fell last year and margins are expected to shrink further in 2024 as the company continues to invest. Birkenstock, which recently listed its shares in the US, is facing skepticism about the sustainability of strong consumer spending and economic growth. Boss Oliver Reichert remains undeterred, emphasizing the brand's growth potential and conservative full-year forecast of 17-18% sales growth in 2024.

German sandal maker Birkenstock's stock ended more than 12% below its IPO price in its underwhelming Wall Street debut, signaling investor caution towards new listings.
