Inside information: Marimekko sets new, medium-term financial goals

The Board of Directors of Marimekko has decided to set new, medium-term (3–5 years) financial goals for the company. In line with these goals, the company aims to achieve annual net sales growth of 10% and a comparable operating profit margin of 20%. Marimekko’s long-term financial goals, set in 2022, remain unchanged.

“In recent years, various tensions in geopolitics and trade relations have constantly created great uncertainty to global economic development. This has been strongly reflected in consumer purchasing behavior across Marimekko’s markets, particularly in our important home market of Finland, where consumer confidence has remained weak for several years, affecting the pace of Marimekko’s total net sales growth. At Marimekko, we believe that the winning brands of the future are determined in these kinds of challenging market conditions, and the long-term financial goals we set in autumn 2022 provide clear direction for the company also in the years to come. Given the current challenging operating environment, we have today set a new, medium-term goal for growth under which the company aims to achieve annual net sales growth of 10%. Our goal for the comparable operating profit margin remains 20% also in the medium term,” says Mika Ihamuotila, Chair of the Board of Directors of Marimekko.

“Marimekko’s consistent work and investments to expand the global Marimekko phenomenon and to scale profitable growth are progressing well. We see significant growth opportunities, particularly in international markets, and believe that Marimekko’s empowering lifestyle philosophy to bring joy to everyday life, resonates today more strongly than ever with consumers around the world who value authenticity and timeless design,” says Ihamuotila.
