Jennifer Saibil (e.l.f. Beauty): E.l.f. is a small player in the beauty industry compared to the industry giants, but it’s growing fast and gaining market share. More importantly, it has massive opportunities.

Social media and digital shopping play a big role in e.l.f.’s success. It has developed a differentiated branding with “clean” ingredients and great prices that resonates with its core, target market of younger, eco-conscious shoppers. Customers can’t get enough of its products.

The results speak for themselves. It gained 2.6 percentage points of market share in color cosmetics in the 2025 fiscal first quarter while the market leaders all lost share, and it moved up from the No. 5 spot last year to the No. 2 spot this year in dollar share. It’s now the top-selling brand at Target. In skincare, it gained 0.6 percentage points in market share, moving up from No. 13 to No. 9. It’s just getting started in international markets, where it continues to launch, and international sales increased 91% year over year in the quarter.

Although e.l.f. has reported staggering growth for several quarters, it looks like that’s beginning to weaken. Sales increased 50% year over year in Q1, but management is expecting that to drop to about 26% for the full year. That implies a serious deceleration over the next three quarters. Worse, net income was lower year over year in Q1, and management’s guiding for full-year earnings per share (EPS) below Wall Street’s expectations.

With moderating inflation and the economy on the upswing, that could end up better than expected. But investors should focus on the long-term story. e.l.f. has a growing, differentiated brand that continues to eat away at the longtime industry leaders. e.l.f. stock is down 24% this year, and although it might take some time to rebound, in a few years patient investors will thank themselves for buying today.
