The family-owned company confirmed its 2022-2024 growth strategy, saying it was a fundamental condition for its possible plan to a market listing and adding that it would pursue the “ambitious business plan with greater impetus”.
“Growth is one of the key points on the path which will bring the group to assess a possible opening towards the capital markets,” the company said in a statement.
OTB chairman and founder Renzo Rosso and Chief Executive Ubaldo Minelli said in November they expected the company would continue to grow, reaching a size which would be more suitable for a listing by 2024.
Last year’s revenue totalled 1.53 billion euros ($1.75 billion), in line with 2019, driven by strong sales in Asia Pacific and North America.
OTB, which stands for Only The Brave and owns brands such as Diesel, Maison Margiela, Marni and Viktor&Rolf, said net profit jumped to 142 million euros last year from 1 million in 2020.
