Dow Jones
Aug 29
   -- Group revenue was EUR133 million in H1 2025, down 22% versus H1 2024, 
      reflecting industry-wide softness in the global luxury sector and the 
      Group's strategic repositioning. Despite these headwinds, disciplined 
      cost management and operational efficiencies have supported resilience 
      and positioned the Group for recovery. 
 
   -- Gross profit margin stood at 54% with Q2 showing early signs of 
      improvement as prior season inventory is cleared and efficiency programs 
      across all brands take effect. 
 
   -- Brand highlights include resilient EMEA retail and a strong rebound in 
      North America e-commerce at Lanvin, 14% wholesale growth at Wolford, and 
      continued strength at St. John with a stable 69% gross margin. 
 
   -- Exciting creative momentum lies ahead with Peter Copping at Lanvin and 
      Paul Andrew at Sergio Rossi, alongside milestone celebrations such as 
      Wolford's 75th anniversary and Caruso's expanding wholesale presence. 
 
   -- Group-wide priorities in H2 2025 include continued refining the retail 
      footprint and driving operational efficiencies; elevating product 
      assortments; launching targeted marketing campaigns and strengthening 
      wholesale partnerships. 

NEW YORK, Aug. 29, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- Lanvin Group (NYSE: LANV, the "Group"), a global luxury fashion group with Lanvin, Wolford, Sergio Rossi, St. John and Caruso in its portfolio of brands, today announced its unaudited results for the first half of 2025. Despite ongoing industry-wide pressures, the Group delivered performance underpinned by strong cost discipline, operational efficiency, and visible signs of recovery in the second quarter.

Group revenue for H1 2025 was EUR133 million, reflecting a 22% year-on-year decline, largely driven by softer wholesale in EMEA, cautious consumer sentiment in Greater China, and a broader luxury market slowdown, with the Group's proactive decision to advance its strategic repositioning across geography and product assortment. Despite these transitional conditions, the Group delivered gross profit of EUR72 million with a margin of 54%, supported by disciplined inventory management during the creative transition and ongoing cost efficiencies. While contribution profit remained under pressure, proactive overhead reductions and more targeted marketing investments helped to partially offset the impact, laying groundwork for improved performance in the second half.

Zhen Huang, Chairman of Lanvin Group, said: "Despite a challenging luxury market in the first half, we remained disciplined in cost management and strategic streamlining, responsive to market dynamics, and steadfast in our commitment to unlocking the long-term potential of our brands. With new creative leadership and continued investment in product innovation, we are well positioned to capture opportunities as the market environment improves."

Andy Lew, Executive President of Lanvin Group, said: "In the first half, our focus was on operational discipline and laying the foundation for future growth. With fresh creative direction across our houses, supported by targeted marketing and refined channel strategies, we expect to build brand momentum and increase consumer engagement in the second half. We remain agile and execution-focused as we strengthen brand desirability and prepare for recovery."

Selected Highlights

Disciplined cost containment: Despite the decline in Group revenue, gross profit margin compressed by only 364 bps, reflecting the impact of swift, company-wide cost optimization measures. Since H1 2023, G&A expenses have been reduced by 35% at St. John, 27% at Wolford, and 25% at Sergio Rossi. The retail network optimization program launched in 2024 continues to advance, delivering tangible efficiencies and strengthening the Group's operational foundation.

St. John resilience: St. John delivered stable performance in H1 2025 despite a volatile luxury environment, reflecting the benefits of strategic transformation initiatives undertaken in recent years. Revenue remained nearly flat, supported by 4% growth in its core North America market and an 11% increase in wholesale through key account partnerships. With a strong gross margin of 69% and consistent full-price sell-through, St. John demonstrated the resilience and strengthened foundation achieved through these efforts amid broader market softness.

New leadership positions: Andy Lew, CEO of St. John, was appointed Executive President of Lanvin Group in January 2025. In his new role, he is driving the establishment of a second company headquarters in Europe to streamline operations and strengthen global management capabilities. At the brand level, leadership team have also been reinforced with numbers of key appointments, including a new deputy CEO at Wolford and the addition of a Chief Commercial Officer, Chief Merchandising Officer, and Chief Operating Officer at St. John, positioning the brands for their next phase of growth.

Q2 improvements across brands: Lanvin and Sergio Rossi achieved a strong quarter-over-quarter rebound across both retail and e-commerce, highlighting early signs of renewed consumer traction. Wolford reported a significant improvement in Q2 margins, supported by disciplined inventory management and cost savings, making continued recovery from last year's logistics disruption. St. John sustained its solid momentum throughout the period.

Artistic direction: Peter Copping debuted as Lanvin's artistic director at Paris Fashion Week, presenting an elegant, archival-inspired Autumn/Winter 2025 collection that featured Art Deco motifs, metallic pieces, and menswear: signalling a revival of the house's heritage-driven identity. Paul Andrew's first Sergio Rossi collection also launches in H2 2025. Both are expected to reinvigorate brand momentum.

Review of First Half 2025 Financials

Revenue

For H1 2025, the Group generated revenue of EUR133 million, a 22% decrease year-over-year. The decline was driven by global luxury market softness, strategic repositioning of DTC channels, and weaker wholesale demand in EMEA. DTC revenue fell 23% and Wholesale declined 22%, reflecting the combined effects of cautious retailer buying patterns and slower traffic in key luxury markets.

Gross Profit

Gross profit was EUR72 million, representing a margin of 54%, compared to 58% in H1 2024. The decrease reflected sell-through of prior-season inventory with creative transition, underutilization of production capacity, and product mix changes. While all brands took steps to improve sell-through and manage inventory levels, these efforts were outweighed by the industry-wide headwinds faced in the period.

Contribution Profit

Contribution profit was -EUR15 million in the first half, reflecting the impact of lower revenue and gross margin compression. Since 2024, the Group has rolled out comprehensive cost discipline measures across its brands, including tighter control of marketing spend and reallocation of resources toward higher-return initiatives. These actions have helped to partially mitigate the topline pressure and strengthen the foundation for improved profitability going forward.

Adjusted EBITDA

Adjusted EBITDA was -EUR52 million in H1 2025, compared with -EUR42 million in the prior-year period. The decline primarily reflected lower gross profit, though disciplined cost management helped limit further downside. At the same time, the Group continued to invest in creative initiatives--including design, fabric development, prototyping, and sampling of new collections at Lanvin and Sergio Rossi. These forward-looking investments, together with ongoing cost discipline, reinforce brand equity and competitiveness, positioning the Group to capture market share and enhance profitability as market conditions stabilize.

Results by Segment

Lanvin:

Lanvin's revenue in H1 2025 reflected a transition period, declining 42% year-over-year, as wholesale clients in EMEA anticipated the debut of Peter Copping's first collection, combined with a generally cautious industry sentiment. Retail sales in EMEA remained highly resilient, while APAC retail progressed in line with strategic refocusing, and North America e-commerce delivered a strong rebound following the successful launch of the Marketplace model.

Gross margin contracted by 366 basis points, largely due to product mix, challenging market conditions, and the ongoing retail network optimization. Despite revenue decline, contribution profit demonstrated the benefits of disciplined cost control while the brand continued to invest in Peter's upcoming debut.

For the second half, Lanvin will launch an integrated marketing campaign for Peter's highly anticipated collection, refresh in-store visual merchandising, host targeted clienteling events to drive traffic and continue to reinvest efficiencies into flagship locations and digital channel partnerships.

Wolford:

Wolford recorded a 23% decline in revenue year-over-year, reflecting the lingering effects of the prior year's logistics transition. The wholesale channel delivered robust 14% growth, supported by a sharpened focus on partnerships, while DTC trends reflected the planned rightsizing of the retail network.

Gross margin was impacted by lower production absorption and targeted inventory clearance to strengthen stock health. At the same time, G&A expenses were reduced by 18% compared to the prior period, highlighting Wolford's strong commitment to operational discipline.

In the second half, under the leadership of new deputy CEO Marco Pozzo, Wolford will celebrate its 75th anniversary with a major brand push, focused on optimizing product assortment, highlighting hero products, and advancing supply chain transformation. The brand will also explore expansion opportunities in high-potential markets, particularly the Middle East and Asia Pacific.

Sergio Rossi:

Sergio Rossi's revenue decreased 25%, with DTC down 21% and Wholesale down 33%, as customers awaited the arrival of Paul Andrew's debut collection in the second half. Gross margin softened by 9%, due to product mix change and lower production utilization.

2025 Q2 delivered encouraging signs of recovery, with retail sales up 17% and e-commerce up 10% quarter-over-quarter, reflecting the benefits of channel optimization initiative. Contribution profit margin contracted due to lower revenue, though effective cost control partially offset the impact.

Looking ahead to H2, Sergio Rossi will accelerate wholesale expansion through new partnerships, continue to enhance operational efficiency and reinvigorate its brand image with the launch of Paul Andrew's debut collections while strengthening its presence in core markets.

St. John:

St. John delivered a stable performance in H1 2025, with revenue broadly flat despite a challenging luxury environment. Its revenue in North America grew 4%, underscoring the brand's strength in its core market, while wholesale revenue increased 11% on the back of strategic key account partnerships. The brand maintained a strong 69% gross margin, supported by consistent full-price sell-through and growth from the wholesale model with Nordstrom.

Contribution profit margin was stable at 11%. For the second half of 2025, St. John will continue refining its key channels to improve conversion, stimulate e-commerce with newly onboarded talent, enhance product design and merchandising processes, and optimize supplier mix.

Caruso:

Caruso's revenue declined 11%, primarily due to a temporary slowdown in its Maisons business, reflecting a broader reset phase in the luxury market accompanied by delivery schedule shifts, and related production adjustments. The proprietary Caruso brand showed continued growth, supported by demand for its ready-to-wear offerings.

Gross margin remained resilient at 29% with contribution profit showing a slight decrease despite the market headwinds. For the remainder of 2025, Caruso will support the relaunch of select AAA Maison lines through collaborations with their new creative directors, expand wholesale accounts in growth markets, and continue optimizing its cost structure to improve operational efficiency.

2025 Full-Year Outlook

The Group expects ongoing market challenges in H2 2025 but will remain firmly focused on cost efficiency and targeted brand investment. Strategic initiatives already in progress include optimizing the retail footprint, enhancing operational efficiencies, elevating product assortments, launching high-impact marketing campaigns, and strengthening wholesale partnerships. These actions are beginning to deliver encouraging results, with their impact expected to become more pronounced in the second half of the year. Lanvin and Sergio Rossi will harness the momentum of their new creative leadership to drive these initiatives forward, while St. John, Wolford, and Caruso continue to refine channel strategies and expand their presence in key markets.

Use of Non-IFRS Financial Metrics

This communication includes certain non-IFRS financial measures such as Contribution Profit, Contribution Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Profit, adjusted earnings before interest and taxes ("Adjusted EBIT"), and adjusted earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization ("Adjusted EBITDA"). These non-IFRS measures are an addition, and not a substitute for or superior to measures of financial performance prepared in accordance with IFRS and should not be considered as an alternative to net income, operating income or any other performance measures derived in accordance with IFRS. Reconciliations of non-IFRS measures to their most directly comparable IFRS counterparts are included in the Appendix to this communication. Lanvin Group believes that these non-IFRS measures of financial results provide useful supplemental information to investors about Lanvin Group. Lanvin Group believes that the use of these non-IFRS financial measures provides an additional tool for investors to use in evaluating projected operating results and trends in and in comparing Lanvin Group's financial measures with other similar companies, many of which present similar non-IFRS financial measures to investors. However, there are a number of limitations related to the use of these non-IFRS measures and their nearest IFRS equivalents. For example, other companies may calculate non-IFRS measures differently, or may use other measures to calculate their financial performance, and therefore Lanvin Group's non-IFRS measures may not be directly comparable to similarly titled measures of other companies. Lanvin Group does not consider these non-IFRS measures in isolation or as an alternative to financial measures determined in accordance with IFRS. The principal limitation of these non-IFRS financial measures is that they exclude significant expenses, income and tax liabilities that are required by IFRS to be recorded in Lanvin Group's financial statements. In addition, they are subject to inherent limitations as they reflect the exercise of judgements by Lanvin Group about which expense and income are excluded or included in determining these non-IFRS financial measures. In order to compensate for these limitations, Lanvin Group presents non-IFRS financial measures in connection with IFRS results.

Non-IFRS Financial Measures and Definitions

Our management monitors and evaluates operating and financial performance using several non-IFRS financial measures including: Contribution Profit, Contribution Profit Margin, Adjusted Operating Profit, Adjusted EBIT and Adjusted EBITDA. Our management believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding our performance and improve their ability to assess financial performance and financial position. They also provide comparable measures that facilitate management's ability to identify operational trends, as well as make decisions regarding future spending, resource allocations and other operational decisions. While similar measures are widely used in the industry in which we operate, the financial measures that we use may not be comparable to other similarly named measures used by other companies nor are they intended to be substitutes for measures of financial performance or financial position as prepared in accordance with IFRS.

Contribution Profit is defined as revenue less the cost of sales and selling and marketing expenses. Contribution Profit subtracts the main variable expenses of selling and marketing expenses from Gross Profit, and our management believes this measure is an important indicator of profitability at the marginal level. Below contribution profit, the main expenses are general administrative expenses and other operating expenses (which include foreign exchange gains or losses and impairment losses). As we continue to improve the management of our portfolio brands, we believe we can achieve greater economy of scale across the different brands by maintaining the fixed expenses at a lower level as a proportion of revenue. We therefore use Contribution Profit Margin as a key indicator of profitability at the group level as well as the portfolio brand level.

Contribution Profit Margin is defined as Contribution Profit divided by revenue.

Adjusted Operating Profit is defined as Contribution Profit margin less General and administrative expenses

Adjusted EBIT is defined as profit or loss before income taxes, net finance cost, share based compensation, adjusted for income and costs which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying operational activities, mainly including net gains on disposal of long-term assets, gain on debt restructuring and government grants.

Adjusted EBITDA is defined as profit or loss before income taxes, net finance cost, exchange gains/(losses), depreciation, amortization, share based compensation and provisions and impairment losses adjusted for income and costs which are significant in nature and that management considers not reflective of underlying operational activities, mainly including net gains on disposal of long-term assets, gain on debt restructuring and government grants.
