Quick Glance: Adidas 2023: Sales Neutral, Operating Profit Down - Positive Outlook for 2024
- Adidas performed better than expected in 2023, despite disappointing market analysts. Sales decreased by 7.6 percent in the last quarter to 4.81 billion euros, and total revenues for 2023 dropped by 4.8 percent to 21.43 billion euros.
- CEO Bjorn Gulden highlighted the ongoing efforts to recover from the loss of the Yeezy line due to Kanye West's controversial statements. Results for both Q4 and the full year fell below market consensus. Concerns in North America were offset by growth in Latin America, Greater China, and Asia-Pacific.
- Adidas' operating profit saw a significant decline, falling from 669 million euros in 2022 to 268 million euros in 2023. Despite this, the company remains optimistic, forecasting mid-single-digit revenue growth in 2024, with expectations of stronger performance in the second half of the year.
- Adidas managed to surpass its 2023 operating loss prediction and is positive about the future, with plans for increased Yeezy sales in 2024. The company aims for growth in the upcoming year, emphasizing the potential for improvement in the latter half of 2024.
