Coty FY2026 Q4 Earnings Call - Transition Year Focus on Sell-Out and Gucci Restructuring

  • Strategic Pivot to Sell-Out: Coty is shifting its organizational focus from sell-in to sell-out and market share. This is a fundamental cultural change that Strobel admits takes time, with bonus structures for FY2027 now heavily weighted toward market share metrics.
  • U.S. Consumer Beauty Turnaround: Interventions in the U.S., including SKU reduction and sharper innovation, are yielding results. Sally Hansen is now growing ahead of the market in value, and CoverGirl has substantially reduced its gap versus the category.
  • European Rollout Pending: The same 'Color the Future' performance program is being rolled out to Europe. Rimmel in the UK is catching up, but major European brands like Max Factor and Bourjois have not yet implemented interventions, leaving room for improvement but also uncertainty.
