Elevated LeverageA debt-to-equity near 0.92 and falling equity ratio point to greater reliance on debt financing. Higher leverage reduces financial flexibility, raises refinancing and interest-rate risks, and can constrain capital expenditure or dividend policies if retail demand softens in the medium term.
Cash-Generation VolatilityAlthough FCF grew overall, the slight drop in operating cash flow and a free-cash-flow-to-net-income ratio of 0.60 show inconsistent cash conversion. Such variability can complicate capital allocation, weaken buffer for downturns, and force reliance on debt or equity issuance to fund growth.

This concentration raises cyclical and demographic risk versus diversified luxury peers, potentially amplifying revenue swings across economic cycles.
