PIQUADRO PROPOSITION.

Interestingly, in it’s own presentation one can see that the “Premium / Performance” segment is also the most crowded one. An even better source for market data are IPO filings. In an IPO prospectus, companies usually provide a lot more information than in annual reports, as they have to persuade new investors that this is a exciting market. Luckily, competitor Samsonite actually was IPOed last year on the Hongkong stock exhange after filing bancruptcy in 2009 (and also in 2002 if I remember correctly). The Samsonite story also shows the biggest risk for those companies: Overexpansion and too much lease liabilites, in this case driven by a Private Equity owner. Tumi, currently owned by PE firm Doughty Hanson is currently on the path to an IPO and has already filed its documents for an IPO. To make things more interesting, Samsonite already anounced its interest purchasing TUMI. So we have to additional sources for market information in this case. For Mandarina Duck, the other major competitor from the Piquadro Matrix, currently no financial information is available. It seems to be owned by a PE shop as well.

PIQUADRO PROPOSITION.

Samsonite itself does not yet realise Piquadro as competitor, neither Mandarina Duck. Piquadro and Mandarina Duck are only mentioned among others which are shown having a combined market share of 74.5%.

Competitive Landscape.

Samsonite places itself directly into the “Premium” category in contrast to Piquadro and Tumi themselves:

The luggage market according to Samsonite can be segmented into 3 product segments
