PRESENTATION OF THE GROUP AND ITS RESULTS REVENUE AND ACTIVITY BY GEOGRAPHICAL AREA

The façade has been modified and enhanced, the ground floor has a larger space dedicated to ready‑to‑wear, and a staircase provides access to a private lounge upstairs to welcome passengers in a comfortable setting with a view of the tarmac. In Macao, the store located since 2009 in the One Central shopping centre also benefited from a complete renovation before reopening in February. It is distinguished by an impressive 10‑metre‑high façade, enhanced with enamelled bricks and with large windows that reflect the calm waters of Lake Nam Van. The interior showcases the House’s different métiers , in contrasting harmonies of materials and colours that pay tribute to the architectural diversity of Macao. In Vietnam, Hermès inaugurated its new store in Ho Chi Minh City in mid‑September. Located in the Union Square shopping centre, a prime location in the heart of dynamic District 1, the store overlooks historic Dong Khoi Street. Larger than the previous address, it now spans two floors and covers the entire range of the Group’s métiers . Its architecture echoes Vietnamese craftsmanship heritage, as evidenced by the woven wood panels that adorn the façade or the bold use of colour, which generates a particularly playful interior atmosphere. South Korea saw two openings. In October, the city of Pangyo, the technological capital, welcomed a brand new Hermès store. The House’s second‑largest address in the country, this store is located on the ground floor of the Hyundai Department Store. Its curved interior space, visible from the four windows in the vast corner façade, is enhanced with luminous brightly coloured ceramics, a nod to the traditional Chilseok festival. It invites visitors to discover all of the House’s métiers in an original and poetic atmosphere. In early December, the store in the Hyundai Coex shopping centre in Seoul, in the Gangnam‑gu district, reopened its doors. Relocated and extended, it offers visitors a vast yet intimate single‑storey space. Its façade, adorned with cherrywood panels, evokes Seoul’s dual identity, between modernity and nature, while inside the deep‑coloured carpets recall the ancestral art of calligraphy. In Japan, the store located on the third floor of the JR Takashimaya shopping centre in Nagoya reopened in November after changing its location. Extended, it has two separate spaces with similar façades, adorned with coloured ceramic tiles made using ancestral techniques. Decorated in two ranges of delicate shades, one is reminiscent of the verdigris of the roofs of the neighbouring castle, and the other, of the pink hues of cherry blossoms. Hermès has also strengthened its presence in the Philippines, renovating the store located in the Greenbelt Mall in Manila since 2010. Reopened in July, the store has almost doubled its surface area and extended its façade to now accommodate all of the House’s métiers on two levels. From the two entrances, visitors can access the different universes in a warm atmosphere where bamboo blends with earthy tones and contemporary pieces sit alongside treasures from the Émile Hermès collection or bespoke objects.

1.7.2 ASIA‑PACIFIC China confirmed its dynamism with three openings in 2022. Inaugurated in March, the new Zhengzhou store embodies Hermès’ first presence in the province of Henan, a dynamic region with a rich cultural heritage. Located on the ground floor of the David Plaza shopping centre, in the heart of this city renowned for its craftsmanship, the store offers a spacious interior that emphasises the natural materials and showcases local savoir‑faire . In July, the store, present in Wuhan since 2012, moved to the recent Heartland 66 shopping centre. The geometric lines of its façade and its vertical interior architecture are inspired by the vitality of this city built on the Yangtze River. The store is spread over two levels and presents all of the House’s métiers in an intimate and refined setting, combining subdued lights and carpets in soft‑hues. In October, Hermès opened a fourth address in Shanghai, in the Taikoo Li Qiantan shopping centre, a new dynamic landmark that combines shopping, culture and leisure. The Huangpu River inspired the store’s sinuous lines, notably its impressive curved bay windows, with an amazing curtain whose mass chevron pattern filters the natural light. This new store is Hermès’s 27th location in Mainland China. In Hong Kong, the store, which has been in the Pacific Place shopping centre since 1991, has been renovated. Opened to the public in January, this new, very contemporary space extends over more than 300 m bathed in natural light and dressed in warm colours. Behind its metal façade inspired by optical art, the curvaceous interior invites visitors to move around freely to discover the 16 universes of the House. Hand‑braided bamboo walls, bespoke carpets and fabrics with lush plant patterns allude to the local cultural heritage and traditional local savoir‑faire . In November, the store located in Terminal 1 of Hong Kong International Airport reopened after being renovated and extended. 2 In Spain, a new store opened in Barcelona at the end of November. Located on rue Paseo de Gracia, very close to the previous address, in a late 19th century building whose façade has been restored, its 350 m stretch over two high‑ceilinged storeys and opens onto a delightful patio planted with Mediterranean species. The walls, with their natural curves, evoke the modernist architecture of Gaudi, and the colour palette of marine tones enhanced with touches of pink and orange illustrates the communicative eccentricity of the Catalan capital. The House’s 16 métiers are on display in a warm atmosphere bathed in natural light. Lastly, the Le Monde d’Hermès kiosk continued to roam the world. It stopped off in Barcelona, Knokke‑Le‑Zoute, Rotterdam and London to introduce the magazine to a new audience, while offering thousands of passers‑by colourful moments of lightness, in a spirit of curiosity and fantasy. 2
