Bernard Arnault, Chairman and CEO of LVMH, said: “Our performance in 2022 illustrates the exceptional appeal of our Maisons and their ability to create desire during a year affected by economic and geopolitical challenges. The Group once again recorded significant growth in revenue and earnings. Our growth strategy, based on the complementary nature of our activities, as well as their geographic diversity, encourages innovation and the quality of our creations, the excellence of their distribution, and adds a cultural and historical dimension thanks to the heritage of our Maisons. This was showcased during our hugely successful LVMH Journées Particulières, when we opened our doors to all in fifteen countries in 2022 and saw a record number of visitors come to learn about the know-how of our artisans. We approach 2023 with confidence but remain vigilant due to current uncertainties. We count on the desirability of our Maisons and the agility of our teams to further strengthen our lead in the global luxury market and support France’s prestige throughout the world.”

Key figures

Revenue by business group:

* with comparable structure and constant exchange rates. The structural impact for the Group was zero and the currency effect was +6 %.

Profit from recurring operations by business group:

Wines & Spirits: record level of revenue and earnings

The Wines & Spirits business group recorded revenue growth of 19% in 2022 (11% on an organic basis). Profit from recurring operations was up 16%. Champagne volumes were up 6%, driven by sustained demand leading to growing pressure on supplies. Momentum was particularly strong in Europe, Japan and in emerging markets, particularly in “high energy” channels and gastronomy. Hennessy cognac benefited from its value creation strategy. The dynamic policy of price increases offset the effects of the health situation in China, while the United States was affected at the start of the year by logistical disruptions. Still wines, in particular the Château d’Esclans rosé, achieved an excellent performance. Moët Hennessy strengthened its global portfolio of exceptional wines with the acquisition of the Joseph Phelps vineyard, one of the most renowned wine properties in Napa Valley, California.

Fashion & Leather Goods: exceptional performances by Louis Vuitton, Christian Dior, Celine, Fendi, Loro Piana, Loewe and Marc Jacobs

The Fashion & Leather Goods business group recorded revenue growth of 25% in 2022 (20% on an organic basis). Profit from recurring operations was up 22%. Louis Vuitton had an excellent year, again driven by its exceptional creativity, the quality of its products and its strong ties with art and culture. The women's ready-to-wear fashion shows created by Nicolas Ghesquière were extremely well-received. Many new products were unveiled in leather goods, jewelry and watches. Meanwhile, the new "LV Dream" exhibition in Paris pays tribute to 160 years of creative exchanges that fuel Louis Vuitton's spirit of innovation, and a new collaboration with Japanese artist Yayoi Kusama was unveiled, revisiting iconic creations of the Maison. Christian Dior continued its remarkable growth trajectory across all its product lines. After three years of renovations, the Maison’s historic store at 30 avenue Montaigne, which reopened in Paris in early 2022, enjoyed huge success, offering a new experience of the highest refinement. Its fashion shows continued to offer exceptional moments, whether in Seville, Spain, for the women's collections of Maria Grazia Chiuri, or in Egypt at the foot of the Giza pyramids for the men's show imagined by Kim Jones. Celine experienced very strong growth thanks to the success of Hedi Slimane's creations and his extremely modern and precise vision, as did Loewe, driven by the strong creativity of J.W. Anderson. Fendi celebrated the 25^th anniversary of its iconic Baguette bag in New York. Loro Piana, Rimowa and Marc Jacobs also had an excellent year.

Perfumes & Cosmetics: strong momentum in perfume and continued selective distribution

The Perfumes & Cosmetics business group recorded revenue growth of 17% in 2022 (10% on an organic basis). Profit from recurring operations was slightly down as a result of a very selective policy of distribution to assert itself in the prestige universe. Christian Dior enjoyed a remarkable performance, strengthening its lead. Sauvage confirmed its position as the world's leading perfume, while the iconic women's fragrances Miss Dior and J'adore, enriched with its latest creation Parfum d'Eau, continued to grow. Dior Addict in make-up and Prestige in skincare also contributed to the rapid growth of the Maison. Guerlain sustained its growth, driven notably by the vitality of its Abeille Royale skincare, its Aqua Allegoria collection and its exceptional perfumes L’Art et la Matière. Parfums Givenchy benefited from the continued success of its fragrances. Fenty Beauty doubled its revenue thanks to the expansion of its distribution network and the success of its launches.

Watches & Jewelry: rapid growth in jewelry and watches

The Watches & Jewelry business group recorded revenue growth of 18% in 2022 (12% on an organic basis). Profit from recurring operations was up 20%. Tiffany & Co. had a record year, driven by its increasing desirability. While its High Jewelry revenue doubled, the new Lock bracelet collection, rolled out in North America, enjoyed great success alongside other iconic lines. The “Vision & Virtuosity” exhibition at the Saatchi Gallery in London showcased 185 years of creativity and know-how of the Maison over the summer. Bvlgari confirmed its strong momentum, particularly in Europe, Japan and the United States. The iconic Serpenti line and the High Jewelry and High Watchmaking collections were the main growth drivers. The Octo Finissimo Ultra watch broke a new record of thinness. Chaumet had a good year and celebrated nature with its “Végétal” exhibition in Paris. Fred showed strong growth and launched its first retrospective exhibition at the Palais de Tokyo in Paris. In the watchmaking sector, TAG Heuer unveiled, among other innovations, the Carrera Plasma, an avant-garde fusion of watchmaking and lab grown diamonds. As official timekeeper, Hublot enjoyed strong visibility during the 2022 Football World Cup. Zenith continued to expand its in-store and online distribution.

Selective Retailing: excellent performance by Sephora; DFS impacted by the health situation in China

Selective Retailing revenue was up 26% in 2022 (17% on an organic basis). Profit from recurring operations was up 48%. With a strong rebound in activity in its stores, Sephora enjoyed a record performance in both revenue and earnings. Momentum was particularly strong in North America, Europe, the Middle East and in most Southeast Asian countries. Further investments were made into Sephora's omnichannel strategy in order to continuously improve its customers’ purchasing experience both online and in-store. The network continued to expand notably due to the partnership with Kohl's in the United States. Sephora’s Russian business was divested. DFS was still affected by the health situation in China. The flagship destinations of Hong Kong and Macau particularly suffered as a result of the suspension of domestic travel and the complete absence of tourists but just reopened in January. Le Bon Marché, which is growing strongly, continued to develop innovative concepts and benefit from the return of loyal French customers and international travellers.

Confidence in 2023

With the month of January having started well and despite an uncertain geopolitical and economic environment, LVMH is confident in its ability to continue the growth observed in 2022. The Group will pursue its brand development focused strategy, underpinned by continued innovation and investment as well as a constant quest for desirability and quality in its products and their distribution.

Driven by the agility of its teams, their entrepreneurial spirit and its well diversified presence across businesses and geographic areas in which its customers are located, LVMH enters 2023 with confidence and once again, sets an objective of reinforcing its global leadership position in luxury goods.

Dividend 2022

At the General Meeting of April 20, 2023, LVMH will propose a dividend of 12 euros per share. An interim dividend of 5 euros per share was paid on December 5 of last year. The balance of 7 euros will be paid on April 27, 2023.
