Kering, with the symbol PPRUY-OTC, is facing significant challenges, primarily due to the underperformance of its flagship Gucci brand. After experiencing a boom post-Covid, the luxury market has notably weakened, with a major impact from Chinese consumers, resulting in disappointing sales. The recent designer changes at Gucci aimed to shift the brand's focus towards more classic leather goods; however, experts believe this strays from the brand's core identity. While there is optimism about potential improvements in the long-term due to the oligopolistic nature of the luxury goods market, the current outlook remains uncertain. Analysts note the company's strong free cash flow, good balance sheet, and attractive dividend yield of 5.5%, yet caution surrounds its future growth amidst weak sales and guidance.

The luxury market has been weak after the post-Covid boom. Chinese consumers are a major factor. Plus, their Gucci brand wasn't resonating with consumers. Their designer tried to make the brand more into leather goods and classic fashions, but that isn't what Gucci is about. They have a new designer, so he sees upside. Long-term, he likes luxury goods for being stable and an oligopoly. It trades at 17x PE forward where mid-20s is the norm, so there's room here.
(Analysts’ price target is $22.60)
