LVMH shares plummeted over 7% in morning trading Wednesday after the French luxury conglomerate reported mixed full-year earnings late Tuesday.

Organic revenue grew by 1% in the fourth quarter, flat from the same period a year earlier. Over the full year, revenue declined 1%.

Shares were last seen 7.7% lower.

Investors had expected stronger numbers. “With peers such as Richemont, Burberry, and Cucinelli reporting solid QoQ improvements and beating expectations, the bar had moved slightly higher,” Citi analysts said in a note.
