Burberry’s Quarterly Revenue Growth Affected by Declining Sales in the Americas

by Zyrene D.

in Industry, Luxury Goods

Burberry, the renowned British luxury fashion brand, recently reported a 20% increase in revenues for its first quarter. This growth was primarily driven by a resurgence in China, which helped offset a decline in sales in the Americas.

According to the company’s announcement on Friday, Burberry’s revenues reached £589 million in the three months ending on July 1, up from £505 million during the same period the previous year.

While the brand witnessed sales growth in all regions outside the Americas, the Americas experienced an 8% decline in sales during the quarter, compared to a 7% decrease in the previous quarter. Burberry’s interim chief financial officer, Ian Brimicombe, attributed the sluggish sales in the Americas to a weakening demand from aspirational shoppers in the region.

Brimicombe commented, “The US market is currently experiencing a slowdown, partly due to macroeconomic headwinds. We are actively working to reverse this trend as inflation reaches its peak.”

European luxury goods companies, including Burberry, have faced challenges in increasing their revenues in the United States, particularly in a period marked by higher interest rates.

LVMH, a French luxury conglomerate, reported stalled sales growth in the US in its first-quarter trading update in April, citing uncertainties in the economic outlook. While US sales had grown by 8% in the fourth quarter of 2022, they remained stagnant in the first three months of the year.

Kering, another French luxury brand, saw a decline in North America sales during the first quarter, with global revenues increasing by only 1% compared to the same period in the previous year. In contrast, Hermès reported a significant 19% increase in sales in the Americas, attributing it to strong momentum in the United States.

Burberry noted that American consumers continued to purchase its brand in Europe, driven by a significant increase in tourism in the region.

To offset its weakening sales in the US, Burberry experienced robust growth in domestic Chinese consumption, with China sales surging by 46% compared to the same period the previous year. The company also pointed out that, while tourism in general was strong, Chinese tourism had a slower recovery, accounting for 8% of sales in Europe, the Middle East, India, and Africa, compared to 5% in the previous quarter.

John Coldham, a retail partner at the law firm Gowling WLG, suggested that Burberry’s appeal as a quintessentially British brand continued to drive high sales in Asia but had less impact in the US, where luxury buyers tended to prefer domestic brands. Coldham also noted that the global pandemic had boosted sales of activewear, a trend that the luxury market had been slower to adopt, and that Burberry would need to adapt to meet the evolving demands of US consumers.

In the wake of these developments, Burberry’s shares saw a modest 0.1% increase in morning trading.
