Rémy Cointreau SA (REMYY) has announced its Q4 2026 sales results, showcasing an impressive 8.9% organic growth. This surge was significantly propelled by the robust performance of its Cognac business, which saw a 15.5% increase. The company attributed this success, in part, to the favorable timing of the Chinese New Year and a recovery in the Chinese duty-free market.
The Americas region experienced a moderate decline, influenced by challenging year-over-year comparisons in the U.S. and specific phasing effects in Canada. The Liqueurs & Spirits division maintained a stable performance, demonstrating solid momentum in the U.S. and China, despite a more varied outlook in EMEA due to timing factors.
Breaking down the Q4 sales, a 2.4% decrease in volume was offset by an 11.3% rise in price/mix. This positive price/mix effect was primarily driven by the strong outperformance of Cognac compared to Liqueurs & Spirits, highlighting the brand's continued strength in key markets.
