Kering said it appointed Pierpaolo Piccioli as the new creative director of Balenciaga as the French luxury group faces a slowdown in demand for high-end goods, coupled with its own turnaround challenges.
Gucci-owner Kering has seen a stark decline of demand for its luxury and fashion goods in the United States, its Chief Executive Francois-Henri Pinault told French senators at a parliamentary hearing on Tuesday.
I downgrade Kering to a sell rating due to poor performance, particularly in China and Gucci, with no signs of near-term recovery. Kering's 1Q25 revenue fell 14% y/y, with declines across all major regions and brands, notably Gucci's 25% y/y drop. Gucci's ongoing struggles, including weak in-store traffic and ineffective product refreshes, are severely impacting Kering's overall earnings.
