1. Supply Chain and Tariff Risks: On is significantly dependent on third-party partners for manufacturing, logistics, and distribution, with a substantial portion of its sourcing reportedly from Vietnam. This reliance exposes the company to risks such as disruptions, increased costs, and potential impacts on product quality and availability. Furthermore, the risk of new tariffs, particularly from China, could further compress margins due to the company's heavy reliance on imported materials and products and its manufacturing base in Asia.
2. Foreign Exchange Headwinds: As a Swiss company, On reports its financials in Swiss Francs (CHF), while its sales and cost of goods sold are primarily in other currencies like the Euro and US Dollar. Fluctuations in exchange rates, particularly a weakening of the US Dollar against the Swiss Franc, can negatively impact the company's reported earnings and profit margins.
3. Intensifying Competition and Maintaining Premium Strategy: The sportswear market is highly competitive, with established global players actively seeking to gain or regain market share. On's strategy relies on its premium positioning, product innovation, and distinct brand identity. There is a risk that increased competition could lead to competitors offering similar features at lower price points, making it challenging for On to sustain its premium pricing and market differentiation. Additionally, aggressive global expansion efforts could lead to margin pressure if consumer demand shifts or if new markets and categories do not scale as expected, potentially diluting the brand's identity.

The addressable markets for On's (ONON) main products and services are substantial on a global scale.

For its core product category of footwear, particularly running shoes, the global market size is significant. The global running shoes market was valued at approximately USD 52.18 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow to nearly USD 77.68 billion by 2032. Another estimate places the global running shoes industry at US$ 45.7 billion in 2024, with a projection to reach US$ 73.0 billion by the end of 2035. The broader global outdoor footwear market, which includes various types of outdoor shoes, was valued at USD 42.13 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 79.21 billion by 2031.

In the apparel segment, On operates within the larger global sportswear market. This market was estimated at USD 335.92 billion in 2023 and is projected to reach USD 646.01 billion by 2030. A more specific sub-segment, the global outdoor apparel market, was estimated at USD 17.47 billion in 2024 and is expected to grow to USD 29.85 billion in 2034.

On (symbol: ONON) is expected to drive future revenue growth over the next 2-3 years through several key strategies:

• International Expansion and Market Penetration: The company anticipates significant growth from expanding its presence in international markets, particularly in the Asia-Pacific (APAC) and Europe, Middle East, and Africa (EMEA) regions. APAC, including key markets like China, Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, and Australia, has shown extraordinary year-over-year growth, with management indicating that international expansion is still in its early stages. This geographic diversification is crucial for increasing market share and overall revenue.
• Growth of the Direct-to-Consumer (DTC) Channel: On is strategically investing in and expanding its DTC channels, including e-commerce and its network of flagship stores globally. This channel has consistently outperformed, contributing to a higher mix of DTC sales and improved gross profit margins. The strong performance of flagship stores, such as the one in Chengdu, serves as a blueprint for future retail expansion, further enhancing consumer engagement and driving sales directly.
• Expansion of Apparel and Accessories: While footwear remains the primary revenue driver, the apparel and accessories segments are scaling rapidly and are identified as significant opportunities for future growth. The company is focused on executing well in the apparel business to boost its total addressable market and increase cross-selling opportunities, with apparel sales growing significantly year-over-year.
• New Product Launches and Strategic Innovation: On's ability to build a portfolio of strong franchises and introduce innovative product releases is a consistent driver of demand across its performance and lifestyle portfolios. Strategic innovation, such as LightSpray automated manufacturing, underpins its long-term premium positioning and is expected to contribute to sustained growth.
• Increased Brand Awareness and Market Share Gains: Strategic marketing and continued efforts to elevate brand awareness among its communities are expected to drive revenue growth through increased consumer engagement and market penetration. The company aims to further elevate its market share in running and enhance its performance credibility globally.
