Brunello Cucinelli has reported a “very positive” first half of 2025, with net profit soaring 16% to €76.7m (£66.4m) while revenues also climbed.
Over the period, revenues rose by 10.2% to €684.1m (£592.5m), while EBIT hit €113.8m (£98.6m), up by 8.8% against the prior year.
In its latest update, the fashion group said 2025 is a “very important year for investments”, having completed one year in advance its three-year plan for Made in Italy artisanal production, including the doubling of its Solomeo factory.
As at 30 June 2025, investments totalled €63.5m (£55m), compared with €44.8m (£38.8m) at 30 June 2024.
The group said there has been a “very, very positive” sales trend in July and August, in continuity with the growth of the first six months of the year, adding that it has seen an “excellent start” to its 2025 Fall–Winter collection.
Looking ahead, it said these sales results reinforce expectations of revenue growth of around 10% for 2025, with the same rise projected in 2026.
Brunello Cucinelli, executive chairman and creative director of the group, said: “We have closed the first half of 2025 with excellent results both in terms of revenue and profit, achieving the sound and gracious growth that we greatly value.
“Our aim has been to dignify manual work, conducting business with full respect for the moral and economic dignity of the human being, in the belief that each of us is constantly striving to rediscover a healthy balance between life, work, and those much-desired human relationships.”
He added: “The Fall–Winter sales season has indeed begun very well, as has the order intake for Men’s and Women’s collections for the forthcoming Spring–Summer 2026. All of this, together with the pleasant atmosphere surrounding our brand, enables us to work with peace of mind and to envisage closing 2025 with healthy growth in revenue of around 10%, accompanied by sound profits, and to look ahead to 2026 with the expectation of similarly balanced growth, again in the region of 10%.”
