LuxExperience BV (NYSE: LUXE) shares surged 17.98% during Wednesday's trading session following the release of its impressive third-quarter fiscal year 2025 earnings report. The luxury multi-brand digital platform demonstrated resilience and growth in a challenging market environment, surpassing analyst expectations and providing an optimistic outlook for its future operations.
The company reported solid net sales growth of 4% year-over-year, reaching €242.5 million for its legacy Mytheresa standalone business. This figure exceeded the analyst consensus estimate of €246.70 million. LuxExperience also posted a strong adjusted EBITDA margin of 3.9%, showcasing its ability to maintain profitability amid market headwinds. The gross profit margin saw a significant improvement, expanding by 140 basis points to 44.8% compared to the same period last year.
Investors were particularly encouraged by LuxExperience's positive outlook following its recent acquisition of YOOX NET-A-PORTER. Michael Kliger, CEO of LuxExperience, expressed confidence in the company's future, stating, "Combined we will create the leader in global digital, multi-brand luxury with strong profitability and growth. Our medium-term ambition is to reach around €4bn in net sales per year and 7% to 9% in adjusted EBITDA margin." This optimistic forecast, coupled with the strong performance of the Mytheresa business, appears to be a key driver behind the stock's significant surge.
The company's ability to outperform expectations in a tough market environment has resonated well with investors. LuxExperience reported quarterly earnings of $0.06 per share, beating the analyst consensus estimate of $(0.01) by a substantial margin. This impressive performance, combined with the positive outlook for the combined business with YOOX NET-A-PORTER, has bolstered investor confidence in LuxExperience's growth strategy and market position in the luxury e-commerce sector.
