The company’s strategic focus on expanding its presence in China and maintaining momentum in the US market are also critical factors in the positive outlook. Additionally, the valuation of Amer Sports suggests potential for multiple expansion, making it an attractive investment opportunity. Overall, the combination of strong brand execution, market expansion, and favorable financial metrics supports the Buy rating.
