H&M Profit Affected by Online Investments, but Sales Solid; Maintaining FVE

We are maintaining our fair value estimate of SEK 153 for H&M shares as the company reported first-quarter results. Revenue growth was 4% in constant-currency terms (10% in kronor) versus our expectations for 4.3% full-year constant-currency growth. Sales at constant currency excluding the transition to the new online platform in Germany grew 6% in the quarter and 7% in March. Online sales grew 18% in the quarter but 27% in local currencies if the online transition in Germany is excluded.
