Oddity Tech Investment Narrative Recap

To own Oddity Tech, you need to believe its AI driven, digital first model can keep attracting and retaining beauty and wellness customers efficiently, even as it expands new brands and geographies. The new class action lawsuits around advertising cost disclosures go straight to today’s key issue: whether higher customer acquisition costs and reliance on a single major ad platform meaningfully weaken the near term growth catalyst and deepen the central risk to margins.

That guidance, together with the new credit facilities and active buyback program, frames the core question for investors: how much of Oddity’s growth thesis still rests on restoring digital marketing efficiency versus diversifying channels and revenue sources.

Before this ad cost shock, the most optimistic analysts were modeling revenue near US$1.3 billion and earnings of about US$182 million by 2028, yet their thesis downplayed how ongoing high customer acquisition costs and dependence on paid digital marketing could squeeze margins, so it is worth comparing that upbeat view with today’s legal and advertising reset and asking how your own expectations might differ.

Heard of Veblen goods? As the price goes up, demand goes up. Luxury stuff. It might only work only for Veblen stuff

Seiko could have an overlooked AI angle.

Buried inside the watchmaker is the world’s #1 supplier of SPXO crystal oscillator ICs, which are tiny timing chips increasingly needed for high-speed optical communications in AI data centres. It originally established this technology for its quartz watches.

Seiko says AI demand is already driving strong growth in the business.
