Earnings Call Summary
Earnings Call Date:Feb 10, 2025
|% Change Since: -15.66%
|Next Earnings Date:May 12, 2025
Earnings Call Sentiment|Neutral
Coty's earnings call reveals a mixed picture with strong performance in gross margin expansion, leverage reduction, and online sales growth. However, significant challenges persist in China, Asia Travel Retail, and the U.S. Consumer Beauty segment. The cautious inventory management by retailers also presents ongoing difficulties. Despite these challenges, Coty remains optimistic about its brand health and future growth, particularly in the fragrance sector.Company Guidance
During Coty's Second Quarter Fiscal 2025 earnings call, the company outlined several key metrics affecting its current and future performance. Laurent Mercier, the CFO, highlighted challenges impacting approximately 20% of the business, with notable disruptions in China, Travel Retail Asia, Australia, and Consumer Beauty, collectively impacting the Prestige business and U.S. Consumer Beauty by roughly 3 points each. Despite strong sellout performance, particularly in Fragrances with mid- to high single-digit growth, retailers are cautious with inventory management, leading to a gap between sell-in and sellout. The company remains prudent in its guidance, expecting no significant replenishment in H2. Coty continues to focus on expanding gross margins, which improved by close to 200 basis points in H1, and projects a full-year gross margin expansion of about 100 basis points. The company aims for an EBITDA margin increase of 70 to 90 basis points, targeting close to 19% by the end of the fiscal year. Coty is also preparing for significant product launches in fiscal '26 to drive organic sales growth and aims to maintain its medium-term outlook of 6% to 8% sales growth through strategic initiatives and market expansion.Strong Gross Margin Expansion
