Rogerio Fujimori has given his Buy rating due to a combination of factors that highlight the strengths and potential of Compagnie Financiere Richemont SA. Despite the challenges posed by adverse foreign exchange movements and rising gold prices, Fujimori believes that the company’s strong brand positioning, particularly with Cartier and Van Cleef, will continue to drive leadership in the luxury jewelry sector. These brands have shown resilience and potential for market share gains, supported by their superior pricing power and attractive value propositions.
Furthermore, Fujimori acknowledges the macroeconomic uncertainties and the headwinds from foreign exchange and gold prices, but he maintains a positive outlook due to Richemont’s strategic positioning and operational efficiencies. The company’s shares are trading at a valuation slightly above its historical average, which Fujimori sees as justified by its robust long-term fundamentals and a favorable portfolio mix. This combination of factors underpins his confidence in the company’s ability to navigate short-term challenges and deliver long-term growth, supporting his Buy recommendation.
