Andrew Macken of Montaka Global Investments presented his investment thesis on LVMH Moet Hennessy Louis Vuitton (France: MC) at Wide-Moat Investing Summit 2024.
Thesis summary:
LVMH is a high-probability long-term winner in the high-end luxury space. Many of the group’s 75 brands bring a heritage that spans decades and even centuries. LVMH has deliberately invested to nurture the brands since its inception nearly four decades ago. These are monopoly-like assets with advantageous and sustainable entry barriers.
LVMH is well-positioned to take advantage of long-term structural growth in high-end luxury. The group’s revenue is driven overwhelmingly by high-net-worth customers who are fairly immune to the economic cycle. The long-term growth in wealth of this customer cohort is large and likely underestimated. This represents a large and sustainable growth opportunity for LVMH.
Andrew believes LVMH is significantly undervalued at the recent market quotation. In Andrew’s assessment, Mr. Market is underestimating (and undervaluing) the long-term earning power of LVMH.
