Puig's quarterly sales rose 8%, with significant growth in the Americas and Asia, despite facing US tariff challenges.
MADRID (Reuters) -Spanish beauty company Puig, known for its perfume brands Rabanne, Carolina Herrera and Jean Paul Gaultier, said on Wednesday its quarterly sales excluding currency fluctuations rose 8% from a year ago, in line with the growth it expects for the full year.
Puig reported 1.09 billion euros ($1.27 billion) in sales during the second quarter, in keeping with the 1.1 billion euros forecast by analysts in an LSEG poll, and achieving the same revenue increase year-on-year as in the previous quarter.
The Barcelona-based group confirmed that it expects revenue growth to decelerate to between 6% and 8% in 2025 after an 11% increase in 2024, as it navigates the challenge of expected higher tariffs in the United States, one of its biggest markets.
Sales in the Americas rose 10% in the quarter, despite trade tensions stemming from an initial 10% increase in U.S. tariffs and Washington's promise of more levies, while sales in Asia improved by 19.5%. Still, the EMEA region remains its main market.
Puig has priced the additional 10% U.S. tariff into its annual sales projection.
U.S. President Donald Trump on Saturday threatened to impose a 30% tariff on imports from the European Union starting on August 1, escalating trade tensions that may affect major beauty industry players such as L'Oreal and Estee Lauder, alongside other sectors such as European wine or clothing.
