Why This Question Matters

China is the primary growth offset to Americas weakness. The committee debated whether deceleration (46% to 28%) represents maturation or momentum loss. If China exceeds 20% for FY2026, the international growth engine remains intact.

China Q4 at 28%, well above 20%. Committee range 15-25% straddles threshold. Store expansion and penetration runway support growth. China macro risks are downside.

46% to 28% deceleration (18pp in one quarter) is significant. Deceleration typically asymptotic not linear. Brand aspirational in China with whitespace.

48%

China consumer spending broadly weak. 20% is management guidance suggesting achievability. First guidance under new leadership adds uncertainty.

Deceleration is natural maturation not collapse. 20% is committee median expectation. China macro could push lower. Competitor entry early but growing.
