• Reflect what a company earns
from its sales
• Determined from information
from the income statement
• Helps investors gauge how
well management utilizes
company resources to produce
their products
Gross Profit and Gross Margin
• In 2017, Sales climbed 10%
to $22B strengthened by
run-up to holiday season
• Gross Profit Margin for its
fiscal 3Q 2017 fell 0.3% from
59.4% a year ago
• Full year GPM continued to
fall from 59.8% peak in 2013
Financial Overview
Competition and Currency Movements
• Analysts have questioned whether the margin's slide at Inditex is
due to short-term factors such as currency movements or reflects
long-term challenges to its business model
• Inditex generates more than half its sales in more than 60
currencies outside the Euro-Zone, while making most of its
products in Spain
• Weakening of those currencies in comparison to the Euro has
chipped away at revenue reported in Euros
Gross Margin Drop
Fashion Wars: Zara Vs H&M
Inditex Advantage
Customer Driven
• Latest fashions at affordable prices
• Customer interaction:
Constant feedback allows
modification of collections
• Prominent stores in prime locations
• Global online sales
Tokyo Flagship
Inditex Advantage
Differentiated
Business Model
• Central inventory position
• Global fully integrated
Store & Online platform
• Orders to stores and
online customers in
2 to 48 hours
Inditex Still a Strong Bet for Spain
