Swatch Group, a leading player in the global watch and jewelry industry, is renowned for its diverse portfolio of brands and innovative approach to timepiece design and manufacturing. The company operates across various segments, including Watches & Jewelry, Production, and Electronic Systems.
In its half-year report for 2025, Swatch Group reported net sales of CHF 3,059 million, marking a 7.1% decline from the previous year at constant exchange rates. The company’s operating profit dropped significantly to CHF 68 million from CHF 204 million, and net income fell to CHF 17 million from CHF 147 million, reflecting a challenging market environment.
Key financial metrics reveal a mixed performance across regions and segments. While the Watches & Jewelry segment saw a decline in sales, particularly in China, regions like North America, India, and Australia experienced double-digit growth. The Electronic Systems segment performed exceptionally well, with a 20.3% increase in sales. However, the Production segment faced challenges due to low order levels and strategic decisions to maintain production capacities.
Despite the current challenges, Swatch Group remains optimistic about the future. The company anticipates a recovery in the Chinese market and continued growth in the USA, Japan, and India. With new product launches and a focus on e-commerce, Swatch Group is poised to capitalize on emerging opportunities in the second half of 2025.
