That backdrop fits with what we are seeing now. A 16.0% 90 day share price return suggests momentum is rebuilding even as the 1 year total shareholder return of 7.5% remains more modest.
If LVMH has you thinking about where else quality and momentum might be lining up, this could be a good moment to explore fast growing stocks with high insider ownership.
Yet with the shares now hovering near analyst targets and trading at a premium to estimated intrinsic value, investors face a familiar dilemma: is LVMH still a buy at these levels, or is future growth already priced in?
With LVMH last closing at €641.8 against a narrative fair value of €612.4, the current setup leans rich and hinges on ambitious profit assumptions.
Analysts expect earnings to reach €16.4 billion (and earnings per share of €30.93) by about September 2028, up from €11.0 billion today. However, there is some disagreement amongst the analysts with the more bearish ones expecting earnings as low as €11.1 billion.
Curious how a moderate growth outlook still justifies a premium luxury multiple? The narrative leans on firm margin expansion and disciplined valuation math. Want to see exactly how those projections stack up?
Result: Fair Value of €612.4 (OVERVALUED)
Have a read of the narrative in full and understand what's behind the forecasts.
However, sustained weakness in Asian luxury demand and ongoing cost inflation could quickly compress margins and undermine the premium multiple that this narrative relies on.
