Company Report

Amer Sports Holds a Portfolio of Promise, but Execution Remains Paramount

While holding a modest 1% global market share in the competitive sportswear and equipment industry, Amer Spots has carved out a strategic niche such as outdoor apparel, hiking footwear, and tennis. Following its acquisition by Anta Sports in 2019, Amer underwent a strategic shift, pivoting away from growth primarily driven by acquisitions and wholesale operations. Instead, the company is now prioritizing the expansion of its product range and a direct-to-consumer approach. This strategic realignment is evident in Amer's increased investment in three core brands: Arc’teryx, Salomon, and Wilson.

Bulls Say, Bears Say

Bulls

Favorable revenue mix shifts toward Arc’teryx should lead to further margin expansion.

Bears

The sportswear and equipment market is flooding with competitors, many of which have large cash reserves and a strong supply chain for quick product development and geographic expansion, threatening Amer’s long-term market position and profitability.
