Bulls say / Bears say
First-half sales rose 8.5% at constant exchange rates, with growth across price segments and continents. That broad-based improvement suggests demand is recovering beyond a single brand or market. (Swatch Group)
Swatch’s direct retail sales grew 18% and online sales rose 30%; Omega retail sales increased 20%. This shows stronger customer demand through channels the group operates itself, alongside momentum in key brands. (WWD)
Sales accelerated 13.1% in May and June, and the operating margin reached 8.6% over those months. If that pace continues, Swatch expects better factory utilisation and a marked improvement in second-half profitability. (Swatch Group)
Despite higher first-half sales, operating profit fell 23.5% to CHF52 million and the margin was only 1.7%. Swatch’s decision to retain production jobs while manufacturing remained weak continued to weigh on earnings. (Reuters)
Currency effects cut about CHF200 million from first-half sales: reported growth was 2%, against 8.5% at constant exchange rates. A stronger Swiss franc also makes the group’s exports less competitive and squeezes margins. (Swatch Group, Federation of the Swiss Watch Industry)
Greater China remains an uneven part of the recovery: Swatch’s own retail sales there rose 9%, but orders from third-party retailers remained modest. Cautious wholesale restocking leaves less evidence that demand has recovered across the wider market. (Swatch Group)
