LVMH reports third-quarter 2026 sales results

LVMH released its third-quarter 2026 sales figures on Monday, October 13, 2026. The results showed organic sales growth that came in worse than expected, with the fashion and leather goods segment, including Louis Vuitton and Dior, declining. Weak demand from China was cited as a key factor weighing on the luxury conglomerate's performance.
