E.l.f. Beauty surpasses $1 billion in annual sales
E.l.f. Beauty has crossed the billion-dollar mark for the first time after having its "strongest year" of sales in its fiscal 2024, according to Tarang Amin, the company's chairman and chief executive officer. In the fourth quarter alone, net sales increased 71% to $321.1 million. "This quarter was the first time we passed L'Oréal Paris to be the number-two brand nationally," Amin told WWD. "We also passed Maybelline to be the number-one unit brand for the first time. At Target, our longest-standing national retail customer, not only were we their number-one brand, but we had almost 23 percent of their entire category. This makes me very bullish about being able to double our market share over the next few years in color cosmetics." {WWD/paywalled}
