L'Oreal reported 11.3 billion euros in Q4 sales as Western demand offset weak Asian growth. Strong US performance helped the group navigate a slow Chinese market.

L'Oreal announced today that its fourth-quarter sales rose 6% on a like-for-like basis to €11.3 billion for the three months to end-December. While the beauty group saw significant growth, the result fell short of the 6.3% analysts' consensus compiled by Visible Alpha. This performance highlights a meaningful regional divergence that is material to the company's year-end performance and how it compares with its peers in the global market.
