Geography

RH operates retail locations throughout the United States and Canada, with additional presence in the United Kingdom, Germany, Belgium and Spain. The company also uses home delivery operations in 27 key markets to support its larger merchandise and furniture categories, which makes logistics and service quality an important part of the customer experience. International expansion increases exposure to local regulations, tariffs, currency movements and operating complexity.

Risks

RH depends on successful execution of multiple initiatives at once, including international expansion, new categories and hospitality, which raises operational and execution risk. Its business is also exposed to tariffs, supply chain disruption, currency swings, consumer demand shifts and the complexity of running large-format retail, delivery and real estate assets across several countries.
