“With the health situation still uncertain, the beauty market is gradually recovering and has recorded double-digit growth. As a result of the determination and continued commitment of our teams, that I wish to warmly thank, L’Oréal is significantly outperforming the market, with an exceptional second quarter. By the end of June, the Group posted a very strong increase and returned to its preCovid growth rate, up +6.6% like-for-like compared to the first half of 2019, with an acceleration of +8.4% in the second quarter compared to 2019.

L’Oréal recorded market share gains in all Divisions and all geographic Zones. This remarkable performance reflects the relevance and healthy balance of our multi-faceted model in terms of geographic footprint, brands and categories. The Professional Products Division has successfully transformed its business model and achieved record performance. The Consumer Products Division recorded double-digit growth in the second quarter, thanks in particular to the recovery of makeup. L’Oréal Luxe also saw a sharp rise in fragrance sales and significantly outperformed the market. The Active Cosmetics Division achieved record growth, demonstrating that its brand portfolio is perfectly adapted to consumers’ health and beauty aspirations.

Our geographic Zones have now been redefined around more homogeneous consumption areas. All achieved double-digit growth. North Asia continued to perform well, still driven by mainland China where L’Oréal continues to strengthen its undisputed leadership, while North America saw a return to growth with a tremendous acceleration in the second quarter. In Europe, L’Oréal significantly outperformed the market, which is starting to recover gradually; all countries in this Zone are growing, led by the United Kingdom, France and Russia. The Group performed well in SAPMENA-SSA4 and in Latin America, with a marked progression in Brazil.

Our digital excellence has enabled brands to engage, recruit and retain consumers and partners alike. Ecommerce continues to grow, at a more moderate rate due to the reopening of retail channels, and accounts for 27.3% of sales. Benefiting from a slight recovery in international travel and the success of Hainan, Travel Retail has bounced back.

The first-half results increased sharply and are of excellent quality. They are evidence of the L’Oréal virtuous circle: a strong improvement in gross margin combined with good cost control has enabled us to invest significantly in developing our brands and deliver once again an increase in profitability.

At the same time, societal and environmental engagement remains a priority. In June, we launched the very first L’Oréal Groupe global campaign, to make our consumers, shareholders and all our stakeholders aware of the actions behind our purpose: “Create the beauty that moves the world.” We also unveiled “L’Oréal For Youth”, a global programme designed to boost youth employment by increasing the number of job opportunities for under 30s by 30%.

L’Oréal has again gained strength in the early part of the year and is well positioned to continue to grow at its pre-crisis pace, leveraging on technology, data and Artificial Intelligence to become the Beauty Tech company. In the second half of 2021, we will pursue our offensive product launch strategy while at the same time investing in relevant growth drivers to spur the future growth and the desirability of our brands. We are more confident than ever in our ability to outperform the market and achieve a year of growth in both sales and results.”

2021 Half-Year Sales

Like-for-like, i.e. based on a comparable structure and identical exchange rates, sales of the L’Oréal group grew by +20.7%.
The net impact of changes in the scope of consolidation was +1.1%.
Growth at constant exchange rates came out at +21.8%.
Currency fluctuations had a negative impact of -5.6%. If the exchange rates at 30 June 2021, i.e.
€1 = $1.1871, are extrapolated until 31 December 2021, the impact of currency fluctuations on sales would be approximately -2.3% for the whole of 2021.
Based on reported figures, the Group’s sales at 30 June 2021 amounted to 15.19 billion euros, i.e. 
an increase of +16.2%.

Sales by Division and geographic Zone

During the first half of 2021, the Group redefined its geographic Zones. At 30 June 2021, sales by geographic Zone reflect this organisation and break down as follows: Europe, North America, North Asia, SAPMENA – SSA5 and Latin America.

Summary by Division

PROFESSIONAL PRODUCTS

The Professional Products Division recorded very strong growth at +41.0% like-for-like and +32.6% reported, again strengthening its leadership in a market which is gradually recovering from the health crisis.
The Division benefits from the three underlying trends in the sector: the digitalisation of salons, the development of freelance stylists, and the explosion of e-commerce. All geographic Zones saw sales growth, with record performance in the United States. The Division also confirmed its success in mainland China with very strong growth in e-commerce and in salons. It continued its growth trend in Europe, driven by Germany and France. 
Haircare remains the number one category for growth, led by a particularly dynamic Kérastase, the successful launch of Curl Manifesto and the success of Genesis, as well as good performance from Metal Detox by L’Oréal Professionnel and Acidic Bonding Concentrate by Redken. In hair colour, Shades EQ by Redken recorded strong growth. 

CONSUMER PRODUCTS

The Consumer Products Division ended the first half of the year at +6.3% like-for-like and +1.9% based on reported figures, with a rebound of +14.2% in the second quarter.
The Division outperformed the market and grew in all geographic Zones, notably in mainland China, Brazil, Indonesia and the major European countries. E-commerce continued to grow strongly and now accounts for more than 20% of sales.
The Division achieved record market share in makeup, especially in North America and Europe, thanks in particular to the highly successful launches of Sky High Mascara by Maybelline New York, Infallible powder by L’Oréal Paris and Shine Loud lipstick by NYX Professional Makeup. Haircare saw double-digit growth thanks to an extremely buoyant market in mainland China, as well as in Europe and Brazil with the success of major innovations such as Full Resist and 8 Second Wonder Water by L’Oréal Paris. Facial skincare continued to accelerate. Revitalift Filler with hyaluronic acid by L’Oréal Paris has become the world’s biggest-selling serum. Mainland China’s leading skincare brand L’Oréal Paris continued to gain market share with the launch of Ampoule in Cream. Garnier is successfully rolling out a new Vitamin C booster serum.

L’ORÉAL LUXE

With the luxury beauty market strongly bouncing back in the first half of the year, L’Oréal Luxe posted growth at +28.1% like-for-like and +24.9% reported.
In all geographical Zones, the Division significantly outperformed the market, marked by the gradual reopening of selective distribution. L’Oréal Luxe performed very well in North Asia, particularly among Chinese consumers. It also confirmed its solidity in Europe and saw a very strong recovery in North America.
The Division gained market share in all three of its categories. First of all in skincare, thanks to its powerful global brands Lancôme and Kiehl’s, a dynamic premium segment with Helena Rubinstein and the couture lines Yves Saint Laurent and Giorgio Armani, as well as the successful integration of Takami. Secondly, in the fragrances category, which is extremely dynamic in North America and mainland China, thanks to the complementarity of Giorgio Armani, Valentino, Maison Margiela, Ralph Lauren, Yves Saint Laurent and the recently acquired Mugler and Azzaro brands, which delivered very strong performance, significantly outperforming the market. And finally in makeup, the Division showed clear signs of recovery in North Asia —driven by Lancôme, Yves Saint Laurent and Shu Uemura— as well as in the United States thanks to Lancôme and Urban Decay, which again won market share.
  

ACTIVE COSMETICS

In a significantly improving market, the Active Cosmetics Division recorded particularly strong growth in the first half of the year, at +37.5% like-for-like and +32.0% based on reported figures.
The Division continued to record very strong growth, with its skincare brand portfolio perfectly adapted to consumers’ health-related aspirations, which increased further during the pandemic. It also continued to leverage the solid relationships developed with healthcare professionals and its digital and e-commerce expertise.
All major brands recorded strong growth. CeraVe doubled in size while La Roche-Posay continued to accelerate, supported by the excellent performance of Effaclar and Cicaplast. SkinCeuticals continued to grow rapidly, driven by the innovation Silymarin CF. Vichy recovered and posted double-digit growth.
The Division saw very strong growth in all geographical Zones, outperforming the market with exceptional performance in the United States, mainland China and the United Kingdom. Thanks to a targeted omnichannel activation strategy, e-commerce sales remained extremely buoyant while in-store sales posted strong double-digit growth.
