Insights

Ermenegildo Zegna Group's Q3 2024 results show mixed performance across its brands and regions. The company reported overall revenues of €1.36 billion for the first nine months of 2024, a modest 1.7% YoY increase, but a 4.0% organic decline.

Key points:

ZEGNA brand continued to grow, with 3.4% YoY increase in 9M 2024
Thom Browne segment struggled, with revenues down 21.7% YoY
TOM FORD FASHION segment showed organic decline of 3.8%
DTC channel performed well, especially for ZEGNA brand
Greater China Region faced challenges, with revenues down 15.8% YoY

The company's focus on strengthening its DTC channel and streamlining wholesale operations is evident. However, the uncertain environment, particularly in China, poses ongoing challenges. The appointment of Haider Ackermann as Creative Director for TOM FORD FASHION could potentially revitalize that segment in the future.

Zegna's performance reflects broader luxury market trends, with regional disparities and channel shifts:

Strong growth in EMEA and Americas for ZEGNA brand indicates resilience in established markets
Weakness in Greater China Region (-22.8% YoY in Q3) aligns with overall luxury slowdown in the area
DTC focus (+10.2% YoY) shows adaptation to changing consumer preferences
Wholesale decline (-13.7% YoY) suggests a strategic shift in distribution

The company's multi-brand strategy provides some insulation against individual brand fluctuations. However, Thom Browne's significant decline (-21.7% YoY) is concerning and may require strategic reassessment. The TOM FORD FASHION integration and new creative direction could be a future growth driver if executed well. Overall, Zegna's performance is mixed, with some positive indicators amidst challenging market conditions.

MILAN--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- Ermenegildo Zegna N.V. (NYSE:ZGN) (the “Company” and, together with its consolidated subsidiaries, the “Ermenegildo Zegna Group” or the “Group”) today announced unaudited revenues of €1,357.4 million for the first nine months of 2024, +1.7% YoY from €1,334.2 million in the first nine months of 2023 (-4.0% organic). In the third quarter of 2024 revenues reached €397.3 million, -7.8% YoY and -6.7% organic.

Ermenegildo “Gildo” Zegna, Chairman and CEO of the Ermenegildo Zegna Group, said: “The first nine months of 2024 saw our revenues grow 2% from the same period last year. Although third quarter revenues showed a slowdown for the Group, I am reassured by the continued positive performance of the ZEGNA brand, boosted by the DTC channel, and also by the quality of talent we have brought into Thom Browne and TOM FORD FASHION as we work to strengthen those teams.

Looking ahead to the fourth quarter of 2024 and into 2025, we continue to foresee an uncertain environment, particularly in the Greater China Region. However, I believe that our Group is fully prepared to face the future with stronger brands, a clearer vision and strengthened management team.”

Zegna segment

In 9M 2024, revenues for the Zegna segment, which includes the ZEGNA brand, textile and other (mainly revenues relating to third party brands), amounted to €944.4 million compared to €936.8 million in 9M 2023, +0.8% YoY (+2.0% organic). Revenues in Q3 were €283.9 million, -2.9% YoY (-1.3% organic) with the negative performance of the textile division offsetting the growth from the ZEGNA brand.

In 9M 2024, revenues for the ZEGNA brand were €810.6 million compared to €783.6 million in 9M 2023, +3.4% YoY (+4.8% organic³). In the third quarter the brand reported +0.9% YoY growth (+2.5% organic) driven by solid double-digit growth in EMEA, the Americas and Japan. The performance in the Greater China Region (GCR) sequentially deteriorated during the quarter as a reflection of a lower consumer confidence.

In 9M 2024, revenues for Textile were €101.5 million compared to €108.6 million in 9M 2023 (-6.5% YoY and -5.4% organic), with Q3 at -16.3% YoY and -15.3% organic due to declining orders from third parties. Other revenues, which mainly include revenues for third-party brands, were €11.3 million in 9M 2024 compared to €23.3 million in 9M 2023 (-51.6% YoY and -29.9% organic), also impacted by the termination of the Tom Ford International distribution license for Tom Ford products⁴, following the acquisition of Tom Ford International LLC on April 28, 2023.

Thom Browne segment

In 9M 2024, revenues for the Thom Browne segment amounted to €220.4 million, compared to €281.6 million in 9M 2023 (-21.7% YoY and -26.9% organic⁵). In the third quarter the segment reported €53.5 million -27.4% YoY (-26.8% organic), substantially in line with the first six months, and reflecting the decision to streamline the wholesale business. Thom Browne continued to show solid growth in the DTC channel in Japan and Korea, which was more than offset by the negative performance in other geographies, mainly the GCR.

Thom Browne brand revenues, substantially aligned to the segment, were at €220.1 million in 9M 2024, compared to €280.1 million in 9M 2023 (-21.4% YoY and -26.7% organic).⁶

Tom Ford Fashion segment

Since the consolidation of Tom Ford International LLC and its subsidiaries occurred on April 29, 2023, this section comments the organic performance only, which compares the revenues of the five months in which Tom Ford International LLC was consolidated in 2023 and 2024. See the table above (“Revenues by segment”) for information on the reported revenue performance for the Tom Ford Fashion segment.

In 9M 2024, revenues for the Tom Ford Fashion segment amounted to €213.9 million, -3.8% organic. In the third quarter the brand reached revenues of €65.4 million, with the DTC at +2.5% organic driven by good performance in the U.S. and EMEA DTC channel, while the wholesale channel reported -29.6% organic, largely due to a different timing in deliveries.

Eliminations include revenues from products that the Textile and Other lines sell to the Group’s brands.

DTC Revenues Analysis

In 9M 2024, Group DTC revenues were €953.6 million compared to €865.2 million in 9M 2023 (+10.2% YoY and +2.0% organic). ZEGNA DTC revenues led the growth with +4.4% YoY and +4.8% organic. In Q3 2024 ZEGNA DTC grew +4.2% YoY and +4.1% organic, driven by double-digit growth in EMEA (with a sequential acceleration of growth in particular in the Middle East), the Americas and Japan. At the end of September, ZEGNA counted 285 Directly Operated Stores (DOS), with six net openings in Q3 2024, including New York Meatpacking, Honolulu and some conversions from wholesale into retail in Canada and of one store in Riyadh.

In 9M 2024 Thom Browne DTC revenues were +0.7% YoY and -12.9% organic. In Q3 2024 revenues reported -14.1% YoY and -13.2% organic, reflecting the challenging environment, especially in the GCR notwithstanding the positive performance in Japan and Korea. At the end of September, Thom Browne counted 106 DOS, including four net openings in APAC in Q3.

TOM FORD FASHION DTC revenues reached €136.2 million in 9M 2024, +2.0% organic. Q3 2024 revenues registered +2.5% organic driven by a sequential acceleration of growth in the U.S. and the good performance of EMEA counterbalanced by a continued softer performance in APAC.

In 9M 2024, wholesale branded revenues were €291.0 million compared to €337.1 million in 9M 2023 (-13.7% YoY and -17.9% organic).

Thom Browne wholesale revenues decreased to €92.9 million in 9M 2024 compared to €153.9 million in 9M 2023 (-39.6% YoY and -38.0% organic).

Non-IFRS financial measures

The Group’s management monitors and evaluates operating and financial performance using several non-IFRS financial measures including: revenues on a constant currency basis (constant currency) and revenues on an organic growth basis (organic or organic growth). The Group’s management believes that these non-IFRS financial measures provide useful and relevant information regarding the Group’s financial performance and financial condition, and improve the ability of management and investors to assess and compare the financial performance and financial position of the Group with those of other companies. 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 strategic and operational decisions. While similar measures are widely used in the industry in which the Group operates, the financial measures that the Group uses 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.

Revenues on a constant currency basis (constant currency)

In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on a constant currency basis (constant currency), which excludes the effects of foreign currency translation from our subsidiaries with functional currencies different from the Euro.

We calculate constant currency revenues by applying the current period average foreign currency exchange rates to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.

We use revenues on a constant currency basis to analyze how our underlying revenues have changed between periods independent of the effects of foreign currency translation.

Revenues on a constant currency basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the impact of foreign currency translation provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.

Revenues on an organic growth basis (organic growth or organic)

In addition to presenting our revenues on a current currency basis, we also present certain revenue information on an organic growth basis (organic growth or organic). Organic growth is calculated as the change in revenues from period to period, excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee.

In calculating organic growth, the following adjustments are made to revenues:

(a) Foreign exchange – Current period average foreign currency exchange rates are used to translate prior period revenues of foreign subsidiaries expressed in local functional currencies different than the Euro.

(b) Acquisitions and disposals – Revenues generated by businesses and operations acquired in the current year are excluded. Revenues generated by businesses and operations acquired in the prior year are excluded from the current year for the same period that corresponds to the pre-acquisition period in the prior year. Additionally, where a business or operation was a customer prior to an acquisition, the related pre-acquisition revenues are excluded from the current and prior periods. Revenues generated by businesses and operations disposed of in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods as applicable.

(c) Changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee – Revenues generated from license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee that are new or terminated in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods (except if the effects are already included in acquisitions and disposals). Additionally, revenues generated from license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee that experienced a structural change in the scope or perimeter in the current year or prior year are excluded from both periods, including changes to product categories, distribution channels or geographies of the underlying license agreements.

We believe the presentation of organic growth is useful to better understand and analyze the underlying change in the Group’s revenues from period to period on a consistent perimeter and constant currency basis.

Revenues on an organic growth basis are not a substitute for revenues on a current currency basis or any IFRS-related measures, however we believe that revenues excluding the effects of (a) foreign exchange, (b) acquisitions and disposals and (c) changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee provide additional useful information to management and to investors in analyzing and evaluating our revenues and operating performance.

The tables below show a reconciliation of reported revenue growth to constant currency, excluding the effects of foreign exchange, and to organic growth, which excludes also acquisitions and disposals and changes in license agreements where the Group operates as a licensee, by segment, by brand and product line, by distribution channel and by geography for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the nine months ended September 30, 2023 (9M 2024 vs 9M 2023) and for the three months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the three months ended September 30, 2023 (Q3 2024 vs Q3 2023).
