Estee Lauder (NYSE: EL) has displayed progressive growth in the last few years. In FY 2018, the company’s revenue grew by 16%, driven by meaningful organic growth in its Skin Care and Makeup segments. Estee Lauder’s Skin Care segment constituted one-third of its sales, driven by strong innovations, increasing demand from younger consumers, and gains from its hero products – Estée Lauder, La Mer, Origins, and Clinique brands. Further, EL’s makeup segment continued to see strong sales, and increase in the revenue driven by strong growth from its brands viz. Estée Lauder and Tom Ford, Too Faced, BECCA, and La Mer. Moreover, the Fragrance segment grew primarily due to double-digit gains across all geographies, and the Hair Care segment revenue rose owing to the successful launch of new Aveda products. In all, EL is focused towards its new strategies, making successful value enhancing acquisitions, and executing well on its productivity initiatives for FY 2019.
