Logitech Announces Fourth Consecutive Quarter of Sales Growth

Logitech International today announced financial results for the third quarter of Fiscal Year 2025. "We're excited to deliver strong, profitable growth once again, in our biggest quarter of the year," said Hanneke Faber, Logitech chief executive officer. "Our growth was driven by our strategic priorities. We delivered superior innovation. Gaming sales were near pandemic-high levels, thanks to an outstanding set of innovations launched ahead of the holidays. We delivered near record sales in our premium Pro Gaming and MX portfolios. Logitech for Business made excellent progress. And our teams fielded effective marketing campaigns and excellent holiday retail execution to drive broad-based geographic progress."

"Q3 marks another disciplined quarter," said Matteo Anversa, Logitech chief financial officer. "Thanks to our strong operational performance, we again delivered year-over-year expansion of gross margin. While we expect fourth quarter currency headwinds, the strong demand in the third quarter and the continued promotional and operational discipline of our teams give us confidence about the trajectory of our business, and we are increasing our full-year outlook."

Well soon they can start to put more and more options behind the GHub, Options or whatever gate software they use. It's annoying when they force user to create accounts to use certain features that worked before.....(looking at several Brio cams) it’s even worse when you need a subscription for it.

Well, maybe they crowdfund an “it just works” version that the customer can pay extra for xD.

Didn't know Logitech uses the same shady tactics to increase profitability? Does the subscription apply to the business accessories only?
