Bearish Statements during earnings call

Statement
We did see a decrease in revenue from the first half to the second half of the year, which aligned with the general softening of the macroeconomics
Wholesale revenue declined by 23%, driven by challenges for wholesalers in a softening retail market, combined with the lower orders as wholesalers worked out excessive inventory purchased from overall market in 2022
2023 was a year of macroeconomic headwinds and global challenges
Lanvin generated revenues of €112 million in 2023, compared to €120 million in 2022, representing a decline of 7%
Regionally, EMEA, Caruso's core market grew by 46% and North America revenue decreased due to the soft demand from OEM clients
I think we are -- we definitely see a little bit of softness on the wholesale channel
Overall, wholesale revenue decreased by 12%, mainly driven by lower third-party production activity
A softening second half saw the luxury fashion industry in a position it has not been in quite some time
So the Greater China market, that definitely has some softness, I would say, in the second half of -- especially in the second half of 2023
2023 revenue decreased by 4% to €60 million compared to €62 million in 2022
So actually, we're seeing that, I mean, despite -- I mean there's a macro economy headwinds, I mean, across the global market
While the brand finished the first half with revenue down 11%, a stronger second half resulted in an overall annual decline of 7%
I mean, as we have been experiencing some headwinds
EMEA, Lanvin's largest geographic region, saw a decline of 16%, while North America was relatively flat
Additionally, we reduced our DOS base by 12 stores, yet maintained a flat like-for-like revenue growth
Looking forward to 2024, we, much like the market, anticipate macroeconomic uncertainty
The D2C channel decreased at a more moderate 5%, with e-commerce remained flat
EMEA saw a slight decline, while North America grew 2% on a constant currency basis
So I wonder how that industry-wide pressure would impact our path to profitability
Europe show a small decline year-over-year, while North America show a small increase
