Summary:

Asos posted a $379M loss this year, yet CEO Calamonte remains unfazed by competition from Shein or Vinted. Calamonte believes the fragmented market leaves room for Asos’ customer-focused model. He noted a 24% rise in “newness” sales, despite only a 6% increase in stock. Asos will double its “test-and-react” line, aiming to adapt swiftly to trends. The CEO’s focus on Asos’ unique styling, curated brands, and fast supply model signals confidence in the retailer’s position, even as losses widen.
