    Listen to the news
    • In recent months, analysts and investors have highlighted Birkenstock Holding’s preannounced fiscal 2025 revenue growth, expansion in Western and Asia Pacific markets, and acquisitions of a German production facility and its Australian distributor as key developments supporting its brand momentum.
    • An interesting angle is how Birkenstock’s growing resonance with younger consumers, under CEO Oliver Reichart and majority owner LVMH’s family office, is reshaping its image from heritage comfort label to fashion-forward global brand.
    • We’ll now examine how this expanding appeal among younger consumers influences Birkenstock’s broader investment narrative and long-term brand positioning.

    What Is Birkenstock Holding's Investment Narrative?

    To own Birkenstock, you have to believe its shift from heritage comfort label to global fashion brand can keep translating into solid, profitable growth. The recent preannouncement of fiscal 2025 revenues, together with upbeat commentary on holiday trading and traction with younger consumers, reinforces the current growth guidance rather than changing the story. Short term, execution on expansion in Western and Asia Pacific markets, plus smooth integration of the new German plant and Australian distributor, look like the key catalysts, especially after a year-to-date share price decline despite rising earnings and index inclusions. At the same time, a relatively fresh board, concentrated ownership and ongoing equity issuance keep governance and capital allocation firmly on the risk list for shareholders to watch.

    However, one governance issue in particular is worth investors’ close attention. Birkenstock Holding's shares have been on the rise but are still potentially undervalued by 20%. Find out what it's worth.
