Company Report

Hermès Remains Resilient Amid Industry Downturn

We believe wide-moat Hermès International has carved out a unique niche in the luxury goods industry, which will provide it with continuing superior returns on capital. Hermes’ iconic leather bag styles (part of the EUR 7 billion leather goods segment) are in limited supply, supporting the brand’s exclusivity perception and providing the company with demand visibility and significant pricing power. Hermès Birkin and Kelly bags are sold in secondary markets and auctions for significantly higher than the initial purchase prices—an impressive feat for soft luxury goods.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Hermès benefits from unique positioning in the leather goods segment, supported by a supply/demand mismatch for its iconic bags.

Bears

Hermès expands production capacity in leather goods by around 6%-7% a year and could run into an overcapacity situation, should demand unexpectedly turn.
