We believe L’Oreal has secured a wide moat, fortified by a mix of market-leading brands, entrenched relationships with retailers, and a scale-based cost advantage. L’Oreal is the world’s third-largest advertiser, which we think affords it a degree of negotiating power. We expect these benefits to endure for the next 20 years, prompting its wide moat designation.
L’Oreal, founded in 1909 by Eugene Schueller when he developed the first harmless hair colorant, is the world’s largest beauty company. It participates primarily in skincare (40% of 2022 revenue), makeup (20%), haircare (15%), and fragrance (9%). L’Oreal is a global firm, with 30% of its revenue sourced from Europe, 27% from North America, 30% from North Asia, 8% South Asia/Middle East/Africa, and 6% Latin America. The firm sells its products in many channels, including mass retail, drugstores/pharmacies, department stores/perfumeries, hair salons, medi-spas, branded freestanding stores, travel retail, and e-commerce. The firm’s top selling brands are Lancome, Yves Saint Laurent, Maybelline, Kiehl’s, L’Oreal Paris, Garnier, and CeraVe.

Dividend yield allows investors, particularly those interested in dividend-paying stocks,
to compare the relationship between a stock’s price and how it rewards stockholders through dividends.
The formula for calculating dividend yield is to divide the annual dividend paid per share by the stock price.

Market capitalization is calculated by taking a company’s share price and multiplying it by the total number of shares.
It’s often used to measure a company’s size. In the Morningstar Style Box, large-cap names account for the
largest 70% of U.S. stocks, mid-cap names account for the largest 70–90%, and small-cap names are the remaining 10% of companies.

OR’s stock style is Large Growth.
Style is an investment factor that has a meaningful impact on investment risk and returns.
Style is calculated by combining value and growth scores, which are first individually calculated.
High-growth stocks tend to represent the technology, healthcare, and communications sectors. They rarely distribute dividends to shareholders, opting for reinvestment in their businesses. More value-oriented stocks tend to represent financial services, utilities, and energy stocks. These are established companies that reliably pay dividends.

Price/sales represents the amount an investor is willing to pay for a dollar generated from
a particular company’s sales or revenues.

OR’s price/book is 8.04.

a company’s current market value. Value investors frequently look for companies that have low price/book ratios.
See OR’s valuation ratios compared to the Market Index.
