Memo

LVMH MOET HENNESSY LOUIS VUITTON (MC.PA). Latest full fiscal year: 2024; data up to 2024-12-31.

Figures computed from the financial statements: revenue 84.7 bn EUR in 2024; YoY growth -1.7%; net margin 14.8%; ROE 19.5%.

The estimated value range is 239.01–510.25 EUR per share (median of 2 methods, agreement: low); assumptions are illustrative. Against the central value of 330.20 EUR, the price of 418.65 EUR leaves a potential of -21.1% (value / price − 1) and a margin of safety of -26.8% (1 − price / value). The range is the median of the methods' low, central and high values, not a probability interval.

Insufficient data for a verdict (indicators available: 4 of at least 6; score weight coverage: 27.1% of at least 60%).

Text generated deterministically from the figures shown; no language model. Not investment advice.

  • Net margin: 14.8%

What contradicts it

Not assessed (insufficient data or a ratio without meaning): ROIC, FCF conversion, Revenue CAGR 3Y, EPS CAGR 3Y, Net debt / EBITDA, Interest coverage, EV/EBITDA, FCF yield, Payout ratio (FCF).

In brief

LVMH is the world's largest luxury group, bringing together more than 75 Maisons across six business sectors, from fashion and leather goods to wines and spirits. The group remains focused on the long-term development of these brands and on decarbonising and climate-proofing its supply chain, which matter for a company active in the largest luxury markets. 1

SWOT

Strengths

  • A unique portfolio of more than 75 luxury Maisons across six sectors, offering diversification that is rare in the industry.
  • A worldwide network of exclusive stores that allows control over brand image and distribution margins.
  • World leadership in cognac and champagne, with complementary brand portfolios and a long-standing reputation for excellence.

Weaknesses

  • High exposure to Asian markets, making results sensitive to developments in those economies.
  • Dependence on a few key suppliers for leather and precious metals, where the leading supplier represents a significant share of purchases.
  • High costs of the energy transition and of emissions reduction, which could weigh on margins in the short term.

Opportunities

  • Development of recycled materials and sustainable alternatives could reduce supply and cost risks.
  • Long-term contracts with renewable energy suppliers could stabilise the group's energy costs.
  • Support for young designers and new talent could refresh the Maisons portfolio over the long term.

Threats

  • Extreme climate events could affect production sites, warehouses and points of sale, with lost revenue.
  • Carbon pricing mechanisms could increase the costs of energy-intensive raw materials.
  • A fragmented market and competition from independent brands could pressure prices and market share.

Risks

  • Physical climate risks to supplyhigh

    Climate events can affect the quality and quantity of raw materials such as leather, cashmere and cotton, with effects on costs and availability.

  • Physical risks at own sitesmedium

    Extreme weather can disrupt manufacturing, storage and sales at a number of locations in high-risk areas.

  • Carbon and energy costsmedium

    Carbon pricing and rising energy prices could increase the costs of raw materials and transport.

  • Uncertainty in climate scenarioslow

    The analysis points to uncertainty about regulation, raw material prices and the ability of infrastructure to withstand extreme events.

  • Dependence on key suppliersmedium

    Concentration of sourcing among a few dominant leather and metal suppliers could expose the group to disruptions.

Investment thesis

What would need to be true (bull case)

  • If the Maisons portfolio continues to deliver growth in Fashion and Leather Goods, the segment's high margins could support group results.
  • Control of distribution through the own store network could protect margins and brand image in periods of uncertainty.
  • Investment in renewable energy and recycled materials could reduce exposure to energy costs and supply risk.

What would break the thesis

  • High exposure to Asia could make results vulnerable if demand in those markets declines.
  • Climate risks to raw materials and own locations could generate extra costs that are hard to recover.
  • If energy and carbon prices rise, margins in energy-intensive segments could come under pressure.

  • Evolution of sales and operating margin in Fashion and Leather Goods2025

Products, market & competition

The business

LVMH was created in 1987 through the merger of Moët Hennessy and Louis Vuitton, and Bernard Arnault became the main shareholder and chairman and chief executive in 1989 with the ambition of making the group the world leader in luxury 1. The group builds its position on a portfolio of Maisons developed over the long term, to which it provides shared resources for creation, manufacturing and selective distribution. 1

The group is the only player present at once in the major luxury sectors, from Wines and Spirits, where it is the world leader in cognac through Hennessy and holds the first champagne portfolio, to Fashion and Leather Goods, Perfumes and Cosmetics, Watches and Jewelry, Selective Retailing and Métiers d'Art. 1

Fashion and Leather Goods brings together brands such as Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Celine, Loewe, Fendi and Loro Piana, each keeping its identity and management autonomy. The exclusive network of own stores gives the group control over distribution and brand image. 1

Segments

Wines and Spirits

The segment combines long-established Maisons in Champagne, Bordeaux and Cognac and relies on a powerful international distribution network. The group is the world leader in cognac through Hennessy and holds the largest champagne portfolio, focused on the premium end of the market. 1

Perfumes and Cosmetics

The segment includes the Christian Dior, Loewe, Kenzo and Givenchy perfume lines, integrated separately from the Fashion and Leather Goods activity. Detailed financial figures for this segment do not appear in the source text. 1

Market context

The luxury fashion and leather goods market is highly fragmented, with a few large international players and numerous smaller independent brands, and competition takes place across product categories and geographic regions. 1

In 2024 Asia (excluding Japan) represented 36 % of Fashion and Leather Goods sales, Europe excluding France 19 % and the United States 17 %, showing significant exposure to Asian markets. 1

Trends

  • Pressure on raw material supplyheadwind

    Extreme climate events can disrupt the production and harvest of materials such as leather, cashmere, cotton, precious stones and grapes, with higher costs over the medium and long term. The group considers these extra costs major and critical. 1

  • Energy and carbon costsheadwind

    Carbon pricing mechanisms and rising energy prices could pressure the costs of energy-intensive materials such as glass and precious metals, while the scarcity of fossil fuels makes access to energy increasingly uncertain. 1

  • Shift to renewable energymixed

    The goal of 100 % renewable or low-carbon electricity at production sites, logistics centres, offices and stores by 2026 could reduce exposure to energy costs, although it requires higher initial investment. 1

  • Expansion of the store networkmixed

    The own network of more than 2300 boutiques, with 95 % of Fashion and Leather Goods sales made at retail, supports control over brand image and proximity to clients, but increases exposure to physical and climate risks at store locations. 1

Competitive position

Competition comes both from large international luxury groups and from numerous smaller independent brands, which face LVMH in every product category and in every region. 1

The group's position depends on its ability to attract the best creators, keep control of distribution and diversify sourcing, especially for leather and precious metals, where the leading supplier represents a significant share of purchases. 1

  • Other large international luxury groups

    The source only mentions the existence of a few large international players in luxury fashion and leather goods without naming them. No specific competitors can be identified from the given text.

  • Independent luxury brands

    Numerous smaller independent brands compete with the group across product categories and regions, according to the source.

  • Luxury wine and spirits houses

    In wines and spirits the source names no competitors, so no US-listed tickers can be identified from the text.

  • Luxury distributors and platforms

    The source does not identify competitors in distribution, beyond noting that the group keeps control through its own stores.
