The rise of #ELFBeauty ELF beauty (US-based affordable cosmetics & skincare FMCG company) is not a new comer. It was founded in 2004 and it IPOed in 2016. Yesterday it announced the acquisition of #Naturium, a fast-growing US-based affordable clean skincare business, for $355m. This is a good opportunity to share few facts about what has been one of the most successful beauty company over the last 10 years.   i)                   A scaled asset with strong growth (NR H1 2023 at ~$400m, +77%) with margin approaching industry leaders (17% EBIT in H1 2023) ii)                  Approaching #1 brand cosmetic position across retailers (already #1 at Target with 18% market share) iii)                Highly consistent growth outperformer (posted >20% growth over the last 18 quarters!) iv)                Successful stock price performance (x5 in 8 years) with a market cap now of ~$7bn v)                  Multiple reasons explain this success: great products sold at an attractive price point ($6 on average), a cost-effective & agile supply chain, a cult following & an active/ involved consumer community, authentic influencers partnerships (product & content development), a true digital content machine (4bn views on Tiktok!), a focused & sustained approach to innovation (franchise-based and not SKU based), a strong loyalty program & a well-balanced omni-channel strategy across DTC/ 3rd party online/ retail & (last but not least) a very stable leadership (Tarang Amin leads ELF for now almost 10 years) with very consistent business and P/L choices over a decade   The success story should not stop soon. With ample runaway in the US & international on cosmetics and with skin care that remains almost an untouched opportunity in the US for them & with the Naturium brand in their portfolio, the outlook is promising.
