Interparfums once again raised its sales forecast for the past fiscal year on Thursday, on the back of 'still high' demand and an 'extremely satisfactory' rate of deliveries in the final weeks of the year.

Sales for the licensed fragrance designer are expected to come in at around 705-710 million euros, an increase of more
than 25% compared to 2021.

The group had previously forecast annual sales of 670-680 million euros, against a consensus of 672 million euros.

The operating margin should exceed 17% for the full year.

On the Paris Bourse, this fifth increase in targets for 2022 did not boost Interparfums shares, which gained just 0.3% in early trading on Thursday morning.

Citing the current economic and geopolitical context, as well as persistent supply difficulties, the group refrained from communicating targets for 2023, pending the publication of its full-year 2022 results in early March.
