Adidas AG reported a significant increase in fourth-quarter sales, reaching €5.97 billion, a 24% rise year-over-year, driven by strong demand for its retro sneakers like the Samba and Gazelle models. The company's operating profit for the quarter was €57 million, a notable improvement from a €377 million loss in the previous year. Despite the strong performance, Adidas forecasts a slowdown in revenue growth for 2025, projecting high-single-digit currency-neutral sales growth and an operating profit between €1.7 billion and €1.8 billion.

The company anticipates continued growth in 2025, with Shopee's gross merchandise value expected to rise by about 20% and Garena, its digital games publisher, projected to see double-digit growth in user base and bookings. The fortunes of Sea's billionaire founders, Forrest Li, Gang Ye, and David Chen, increased by $981 million following the announcement. Sea competes with rivals like TikTok and Alibaba in the e-commerce space. Bayer AG expects its operating profit to decline further in 2025 due to ongoing challenges in its agricultural business.
