Boohoo (BOO) Share Price (2025)

Posted at 29/6/2024 09:20 by Boohoo Daily Update

Post lockdown, the rising popularity of fashion retailers SHEIN and TEMU, means BOOHOO simply cannot compete on price.

It is also becoming increasingly clear that consumers are favouring hybrid companies such as H&M and ZARA over online only retailers like BOOHOO on account of their physical presence.

Intriguingly, changes in consumer values are also affecting BOOHOO and the rise of second-hand and pre-loved clothing retailers such as VINTED and DEPOP is gaining momentum and thus poses another massive challenge.

And of course, we cannot ignore the huge elephant in the room – the rising cost of living.

For most younger people, and particularly the targeted "20-somethings" demographic of BOOHOO PLC, funds are dwindling. Financial strain means it is increasingly difficult to splash the cash on new casual wear whilst struggling to afford the basics of housing, food and energy costs.

Ultimately, the survival of BOOHOO PLC hangs in the balance and despite the misplaced optimism of BOOHOO Chief Executive, John Lyttle, there are multiple hurdles that BOOHOO must first conquer in order to survive.

Shares in Boohoo dived by more than 40%, wiping more than £1.5 Billion off its market capitalisation, after a 2020 Sunday Times report of labour rights violations at the group’s suppliers’ factories in Leicester indicated some garment workers were paid as little as £3.50 an hour, well below the legal minimum wage.

A damning independent report conducted by lawyer, Alison Levitt QC on behalf of the fast fashion retailer later found that allegations of poor working practices in the company’s supply chain – initially denied – were “substantially true”.

A legal claim on behalf of 49 investors including the California State Teachers’ Retirement System – which has investment assets totalling $332.5bn – led by lawyers at Fox Williams filed against Boohoo Group last month alleges the company made untrue or misleading statements and failed to disclose or delayed the disclosure of material information about the matter to the market, breaching its obligations under the Financial Services and Markets Act 2000.

The group are understood to be seeking £100m in damages plus legal costs and interest that could add millions of pounds more to the potential bill for Boohoo PLC.

BOOHOO'S MANAGEMENT FAILINGS PROVE VERY COSTLY !!!
====================================================

Boohoo's Senior Management team, including former Chief Financial Officer Neil Catto, Chairman Mahmud Kamani, Chief Executive John Lyttle, Carol Kane and others (including Kamani's own sons), are NOT now eligible to receive £200 Million worth of shareholder funds, in performance related bonuses.

Back in 2020, Boohoo PLC angered it's major institutional shareholders when it announced plans to hand out up to £200 Million to it's main board of Directors.
