PRESENTATION OF THE GROUP AND ITS RESULTS REVENUE AND ACTIVITY BY MÉTIER

1.6.7.2 Lastly, in this United Nations “International Year of Glass”, Saint‑Louis was chosen by La Poste to illustrate its special Cœur stamp, of which several million copies are printed for St. Valentine’s Day. The stamp represents a assembled chandelier that takes off and illuminates interiors around the world. SILVERSMITH PUIFORCAT Throughout 2022, Puiforcat’s teams devoted themselves to the implementation of various projects intended to revive the brand's momentum. The renovation of the Avenue Matignon store began in the summer, with reopening scheduled for the spring of 2023. During the construction period, the sales team moved to a temporary space on rue Boissy d'Anglas. The revamp of the collections catalogue and the various communication tools, in particular Puiforcat's graphic identity, was also carried out. In the workshop, the craftspeople worked on developing new collections that will punctuate the calendar from next year, solid silver creations imagined with the help of partners from the world of contemporary art. The production of “heritage” pieces also remained strong thanks to the organisation of fine silversmith presentations abroad. The teams from various Hermès stores, in Taiwan, Australia and the United States, hosted the Puiforcat trunk show – a travelling exhibition concept organised over several days – and invited their customers to discover the savoir‑faire and collections of the house of silversmith. BOOTMAKER JOHN LOBB In 2022, John Lobb continued its strategy of evolving and modernising its store network. Two new locations thus opened, in the Mall of Emirates in Dubai and in the KaDeWe department store in Berlin. At the same time, several stores were renovated: in Japan, the Matzuzakaya store in Nagoya and the Iwataya store in Fukuoka, the Plaza 66 store in Shanghai, the Boissy d'Anglas store in Paris, and the Jermyn Street store in London. 1.6.7.3 preview in March at the Kréo gallery in Paris, the collection was presented to the public at the Milan Design Week, in the new Saint‑Louis showroom on via Pisoni, as well as in the cloister of the Santa Maria del Carmine church in the Brera district. In the lighting segment, the production unit’s main area of development, Saint‑Louis drew on its vast catalogue (15 collections and more than 2,500 references), to organise an exhibition dedicated to its savoir‑faire in September, during Paris Design Week 2022. The radiant light and sound production launched many visitors into a unique immersive experience through five luminokinetic installations. A commitment taken seriously by Saint‑Louis, which, for the last 10 years, has given priority to the development of contemporary lighting, diversifying its types of lights to meet all uses.

CRYSTAL SAINT‑LOUIS In 2022, Saint‑Louis revealed a more contemporary facet of its creativity with the new Cadence collection, composed of 29 pieces in clear crystal, punctuated by the juxtaposition of horizontal and vertical lines. This geometry evokes the gestures of the craftspeople in the production unit, which are repeated and passed on from generation to generation: the choreographed ballet between pickers, blowers and glassmaking managers in the hot‑part workshop, and the variations in cutting patterns carried out in the cold‑part workshop. Each object thus composes its own tempo. Creation is also expressed in tableware, barware and decorative pieces as well as a wide range of lighting designed for everyday use. The lines that punctuate the material in a regular and systematic manner suggest the function and use of each object: the horizontal lines highlight the liquids in the containers, the vertical lines soar upwards like the lighting supports. Unveiled in New versions of two other Arceau complications confirmed their success in 2022. The Arceau L’heure de la Lune watch offers a quirky take on the classic moon‑phase complication, by reversing the usual relationship between the functions of the watch and the complication. As for the Arceau Tourbillon Répétition minutes , it shows the movement through the dial cut into the shape of a horse’s head, a motif that can also be found on the back of the bridges and plates. 2022 also confirmed the success of the new Hermès H08 men's line, launched in 2021. This sporty, comfortable and light watch is rooted in the world of Véronique Nichanian and is a companion object for any time of day. Its unique, resolutely contemporary and immediately recognisable design combines technological materials, surface effects and atypical shapes. In addition to its three original versions, a titanium edition tinted with navy blue DLC, with a black ceramic bezel, was added in 2022. The women's lines have also been expanded, in particular the Faubourg line and its Polka version, a true watchmaking jewel that has aroused spectacular enthusiasm, but also the Nantucket line enriched with a metal bracelet in steel or rose gold. Sales also benefited from the strong results worldwide of the indispensable Cape Cod and Heure H lines, whose constant renewal attracts a growing number of enthusiasts: they have been able to discover precious, technically innovative and occasionally bejewelled expressions of these emblematic and imaginative lines. Finally, the collection of exceptional pieces developed by Hermès confirmed its major strong appeal once again this year, with watches showcasing the House’s artistic métiers and watchmaking and jewellery savoir‑faire ( i.e. Faubourg , Klikti , Arceau , Médor , etc.).
