IPAR - Inter Parfums Inc. Increases 2021 Sales Guidance to $840 Million and EPS to $2.45
Inter Parfums, Inc. (NASDAQ GS: IPAR) today announced that it is once again raising its 2021 guidance. The Company now looks for net sales to come in at a record $840 million, resulting in net income of $2.45 per diluted share. Previous guidance called for net sales of $810 million resulting in net income of $2.35 per diluted share.
Inter Parfums attributed this increase, its fourth since it announced initial guidance on December 1, 2020, to its European operations, where despite continuing supply chain disruptions, the pace of deliveries has remained high in recent weeks, driven by sustained customer demand.
Jean Madar, Chairman and CEO of Inter Parfums, Inc. commented, “While our growth has been stronger than expected during the last few months of this year, in light of the current lack of visibility, we have decided for the time being to maintain our 2022 guidance with net sales in the range of $925 and $950 million, resulting in net income per diluted share of between $2.80 and $2.85.”
