Financial Analysis

Chanel has published annual results since 2018 even though it is private. Revenue grew from $15.6 billion in 2021 to $17.2 billion in 2022 and a peak of $19.704 billion in 2023, slipped to $18.699 billion in 2024 as luxury demand cooled, then recovered to $19.269 billion in 2025. 2025 operating profit rose 5.2% to $4.712 billion (about a 24% margin), while profit after tax fell 14.3% to $2.913 billion. Management said sales accelerated to high-single-digit growth in the second half of 2025 and that momentum continued into 2026; press reports later cited roughly 16% like-for-like growth in the first half of 2026. The Americas grew more than 7% in 2025, while Asia-Pacific, Chanel's largest region, was slightly down. Chanel remains a privately held luxury titan owned by the Wertheimer family, with its immense brand equity driving an estimated valuation well over $100 billion.
